Survivor is a tense action game set on a tropical island, where a lone surviving soldier finds himself stranded after a mysterious attack on a military base. The player steps into his role and must survive in the hostile environment of dense jungle and abandoned concrete tunnels, while also facing an unknown enemy.

The game combines realistic visuals, a heavy atmosphere, and survival elements such as scavenging for supplies, defending a base, and uncovering the island’s hidden secrets. The ultimate goal is to survive — and perhaps discover the truth behind what really happened.

Note:

A unique third-person take on portal-based gameplay.
Some visuals show features from later parts of the game that are still in development.




Portal mechanics are part of a later section of the game and are not included in the current demo.
The demo focuses on the opening part of the story, while the portal technology will play a key role later in the game.
