Infection Free Zone News

[h2]Greetings, Survivors! [/h2]

We have seen you asking about the stretch goals from Kickstarter and wondering if they're gone forever. In the end, the Kickstarter campaign, although successful, didn't manage to reach any of them. We have talked about it internally and wondered what we can do about it to make this situation a little bit better for everyone. That's why we came up with the idea of running a community challenge!

[h2]Community Challenge[/h2]

Rules are simple. Stretch goals are coming back into play but this time it's not about buying pledges, but following Infection Free Zone on Steam! Currently, Infection Free Zone has 1,931 members in its group. You can easily verify it by going to THIS address. Our goal for this community challenge will be to raise this number as high as possible!

The stretch goals' rewards stay the same as they were before but now we are counting the number of followers. The first challenge is reaching 5000 followers on Steam in exchange for the "Expeditions" stretch goal from the Kickstarter campaign. When we reach it, we will announce the next one!



[h2]Summary[/h2]

• To join the challenge, go to the Infection Free Zone's Steam Page and click on the buttons: Add to your wishlist and Follow. The follower count is publicly visible, so for the purpose of this competition, we will track this number.
  
• To increase everyone's chances of reaching the highest stretch goal possible, share this challenge with your friends!
  
• After Infection Free Zone reaches 5000 followers the Expeditions stretch goal gets included in the base game and we announce the next challenge!
  

Good luck, Survivors!

Best regards,
Jutsu Games Team

[h2]Greetings, Survivors![/h2]
The Kickstarter campaign is over. We are fully funded and extremely happy to have so many of you on board with us. The real journey only begins, as you are still yet to see the outcome of our hard work. We haven't managed to reach the 25 000 € stretch goal, but we are so, so thankful for all of you who have tried to help us with it. We have seen you increasing the pledges on the Kickstarter, motivating us on Discord, letting us know that you were trying to talk with influencers about the "Sponsor" reward. That's absolutely incredible and we are honored to have a community like this!

[h2]Next steps[/h2]
As you probably know by now, we want to launch a very early beta build towards the end of Q1 in 2022. It means that all the backers who have chosen a Scavenger pledge tier or higher will receive access to it in around 5 months. It might seem like a lot of time, but we will do our best to show you something new from the game at least once a month until then! :)

[h2]Feedback[/h2]
All feedback is valuable to us! Remember that we are always happy to read about your thoughts regarding Infection Free Zone. If you have a certain opinion about the trailer itself, wonder what will be available or not in the game - let us know about it! In here, in the Steam Discussions, on Discord. We are making this game for you and we want to be sure that you are happy with it! The same goes for the suggestions - as it is still very early in the development cycle, there is a higher chance that some of your ideas may end up implemented in the game.

Thank you once again and see you soon!



Best regards,

There are less than 48 hours left before our Kickstarter campaign is over! Help us with making that one last push in order to reach the Expeditions stretch goal!

[h2]Expeditions[/h2]

What we can tell about the expeditions so far:

• They would allow you to travel through adjacent zones of your chosen city, out of your zone construction area.
  
• As you never know what will happen during an expedition, you should always provide your expedition team with the best gear possible.
  
• The outcome of an expedition varies heavily! You might end up finding a bunch of resources, a special event, a new weapon or vehicle, having an encounter with a new ally... Or a new enemy.
  
• It's a 25 000€ stretch goal. We only need 3700€ more!
  

[h2]Visualization[/h2]

This is the early visualization of the expedition screen. It would allow you for an easy movement through the adjacent zones to discover new events, settlements, vehicles, weapons, and resources. What do you think about this concept?

The Kickstarter campaign has only 11 days to go. The game is 73% funded, so we are only a few steps away from reaching our goal. It doesn't matter if you can support us with 12€ or less. Every tiny amount matters and will help us with the development of the Infection Free Zone.

[h2]Limited pledges are still available[/h2]

We truly appreciate the backers' interest in the game and we also realize that some of you are reading about this game for the first time. That's why we have decided to provide an additional batch of limited pledges on Kickstarter:

• Survivor - Early Bird €15 €12
  
• Scavenger - Early Bird €19 €16

Survivor pledge grants access to Infection Free Zone on launch and Scavenger pledge will provide you with the early beta access on top of it too!

[h2]Trailer[/h2]
We could write thousands of words, sharing our vision for Infection Free Zone, but an early gameplay footage should be worth more than that! Check the Kickstarter Trailer for Infection Free Zone and let us know what you think about the direction we are taking, based on this early gameplay montage!

Our Kickstarter campaign has a little bit of everything for everyone who is interested in Infection Free Zone and its development. You can:

• Get a very cheap Steam copy of the game, which will be sent to you on the launch day!
  
• Make yourself settled and prepared for the whole experience by getting a package that includes all future DLCs that are ever to come to Infection Free Zone!
  
• Obtain a "Super Backer" discord title and become a leader of an in-game NPC-controlled neighbor area!
  
• ...and get an access to the:
  

[h2]Early Beta Build[/h2]
Exactly! There is still a lot of time before Infection Free Zone is ready. But if you cannot wait to give it a go, this early iteration of Infection Free Zone is going to be your best bet! We plan to include a tutorial in it and a little bit of action to give you some general feeling of the base gameplay loop.

After the early beta build access will be sent, we also plan on sending the surveys, because we really care about your opinion. 911 Operator and 112 Operator were so good mainly because of your constructive feedback! Now we want to continue this responsive, iterative mindset with Infection Free Zone as well.

We can't wait to know what you like and dislike about our game! But there's still some time before we are ready to show it to you. Early Beta Build is going to be sent to Kickstarter backers in Q1 2022.
