Changes: Death Road to Canada (Game)

Revision as of 17:28, 8 November 2016

Death Road to Canada (sometimes abbreviated as DRtC or DR2C) is a game published and developed by Rocketcat Games and Madgarden. It is a Indie Action-RPG with randomization elements within the games atmosphere that allows it to orchestrate events and obstacles for players in the game.

Setting

"Onward, to Canada!"

The setting takes place somewhere in the modern present day, the player character is said to be lingering around Florida when they heard about how Canada is practically a safe zone against the zombie apocalypse. They have nothing to gain by waiting around in Florida, so they decide to take their things and set off onto the Death Road, traveling north to Canada.

Game Mechanics

Custom Characters

In this menus, the user is shown a character creator that grants them the ability to make playable characters at will. The user can modify physical characteristics, facial characteristics, facial hair and hair-- along with their color, attire, personality (and traits) and their gender.

Development

The development team for the game set up a Kickstarter campaign for their title Death Road to Canada on August 28th 2013, by Kepa Auwae, Paul Pridham, G.P. Lackey and Joey Grady-- said campaign surpassed their goal due to the vast support from the community. It reached $42,708 in the span of 30 days.

Whilst the campaign was in effect, they also uploaded their game to Steam Greenlight-- which also (like the Kickstarter campaign) succeeded. On July 22nd, 2016 Death Road to Canada was officially released on the Steam platform, and thus far has received regular updates for the users.

Trivia

Games of similarity and inspiration for DRtC could be pointed at Oregon Trail: Director's Cut, due to it's relatively similar mechanics and game play.
