The Parasites

The Parasites

So.. this is just the Forest with a female protagonist?
this looks like a blatant rip off of The Forest - can anyone explain how it varies?
I mean, even the title looks to be the same font and colour.

Because time isn't free. Having a better idea of whether it's got something that makes it worthwhile can help save wasting an evening.
Steam Version... Very old Demo, 24 Hour Timer, No Saving
Website Version... Latest Demo, 24 Hour Timer, No Saving, Hard to Download
Patreon... Full Version, but Patreon. No Timer.

===

Full Version.. Patreon ... Currently 1.2.2.0

- Glitchy ... need to backup your Saves Game Daily, as Inventory can vanish
- Destructible Clothing
- Repairable Clothing
- Items you have Break
- Lots of Underwear

- Storing Items in Clothing, Worn or Not Worn. Aka... Stuffing a Can of Tuna in your T-Shirt
- Layered Clothing
- Jiggle Physics

- Pointy Stick, is most used Weapon. Stone Spear, make one quickly...

- Smart Watch ... Health Meter, Time, Hunger, Compass,
- 3 Lives ... No Idea what they are for, you have a Save Game
- Tougher Enemies than the Forest... Humans only, as far as I can tell
- Tree's falling on you, and killing you after chopping them down.

1 Person making it, and it's not very big, unlike the sprawling Sons of the Forest. Good for messing around with, Steam Version should be just Early Access, instead of never updated Demo, with a Timer and No Saving.

===

Website Demo will take x5 Downloads, with a wait timer of 5 1/2 Hours between downloads.

===

Patreon... I have no idea about it, it's the full version. But still early in development.

Then at that point people should go to YouTube and save even more time.

Definitely feels like the forest in terms of construction and the UI/UX. If you liked The Forest, you'll probably like this one. It's definitely clunky in its current state, but I enjoyed the demo and the added pressure of the "mental health" mechanic. There seems to be more ailments than The Forest had which is also nice as I enjoy when survival games include more than, "use bandage to heal." As it stands, solid 7/10 for being made by 1 person.
And you're cheesed because someone added a hot babe to The Forest? Explain to me why that's a bad thing.

And by the way... The Forest was created in Unity with a parallel PlayStation 4 build in mind, The Parasites is being created in UE5.
