A closer look.

Announcement Have added Fullscreen functionality along with cleaning up several bugs related to the menu's crashing the game under specific circumstances. Content Updates Cleaned up the GUI Increased loot spawn rates Fullscreen functionality Just Updated It's been over four years since the initial release of this game. What started as a micro project—a way to learn the game development process and complete a project—has evolved into something much greater. As a more experienced developer, I’ve decided to revisit this project and transform it into a game I can truly be proud of. In the coming weeks, I’ll be releasing a massive update that fundamentally evolves the game into what I’d now describe as a "2D survival game with a highly simulated and interdependent world." This update represents a significant effort to design a world and gameplay experience driven by a dynamic, simulated environment. The focus will be on how the environment develops and how players choose to interact with it to survive. I believe this update will make the game fully deserving of its price tag. To those who originally played it: thank you for being the motivation to make it better and see it through to proper completion—especially those who rightfully tore it a new one. About the Game Set deep within Canada’s frozen boreal wilderness, The Cabin is a 2D survival game where every tree you fell and every cabin you raid has lasting consequences. Society has crumbled after a mysterious catastrophe swept through the South, and like many others, you've fled into the vast and unforgiving North—seeking solitude, safety, and survival in your remote family cabin. But you're not alone. 🌲 Survive the Wild The harsh winter is only the beginning. You'll need to hunt, scavenge, chop wood, and manage your supplies carefully. The forest is rich with resources—but it's also alive. Overharvesting leads to environmental degradation, scaring off wildlife and leaving the land barren. Every decision affects the world around you. Will you live in balance with nature… or bleed it dry to survive? 🔥 Resource Management Meets Consequence Balance your firewood, food, and ammunition. Store supplies for brutal cold snaps, cook meals, and maintain your cabin. But be warned—hoarding too much may attract attention from others trying to survive by any means necessary. ⚔️ Trust No One Other survivors wander the forest. Some are desperate. Some are violent. Some belong to the Cultists , a fanatical group that stalks the woods, whispering prayers to an unseen force. Raiding abandoned cabins might offer temporary relief, but if the owners are alive… they will come looking for revenge. Every encounter could be your last.
