Survivor Island

v 0.11.0

Hi everyone


The new version was launched ːsteamhappyː

What we have in this new version:

  • New Island
  • New 3D models
  • Some new UI icons
  • We remove the snakes and the sword
  • You can no longer cut trees without an axa or pickaxe
  • You also can't mine stones without an axe or a pickaxe
  • Chat in the lobby after you enter a game room
  • New game saving and loading system, working for both singleplayer and multiplayer
  • You can save and load a multiplayer game when the Host and the guest are the same
  • Yes, you can have different saves with several different players
  • The singleplayer save does not conflict with multiplayer saves



What we have planned to do:

  • Chat during the game
  • More food options, like fish
  • New buildings
  • Upgrade option for some buildings

The multiplayer mode is not yet 100%, but any errors found you can report by clicking here

New update coming

Hello everyone,

we hope you are well

2020 was not an easy year, we had many plans for the game but with everything that happened it was not possible to develop the game.
We had a lot of setbacks, but now that things are working out we came back with everything to continue and end the game.
The game will complete 3 years of early access on 2021-03-08!
This is far above what we had in mind when we launched it, but since the launch we have experienced several problems, such as incompatibility in the old engine, switching engines, changing the game art from 2D to 3D and much more!

We are an indie team of just 2 people and the amount of things to do in the game plus the limited time to work on the game (we don’t just work with games, we haven’t reached that goal yet) it became impossible to continue to develop the game and release updates regularly.

But finally we are managing to develop the game regularly and a new update will be available in February. The update will be released only in February as we want all the features that were already present in previous versions to continue to work.

The main changes will be in the 3D models we are going to use. We went back to lowpoly because it is the type of 3D that we are able to offer with such a small team.

This new version will have:

  • New Island
  • New player
  • Cooperative mode
  • Build shelter
  • Build fireplace
  • Build torch
  • Build chest to store items
  • Build axe
  • Build pickaxe


The sword and snakes will be removed from the game as several bugs have already been reported by you. Achievements for sword and snakes will also be removed from the game. Perhaps we will add it again in the future.
