Working on an indie game that actually sees the light of day is always impressive for any development team. But, when the same feat is accomplished by a single developer, the process is even more awe-inspiring. That is exactly what happened with Teomim Island, a game from Jakov, a one-man development team who built this Steam title from scratch.
The game started its life as a homage to FPS titles that Jakov played since childhood. It slowly grew into something a lot more complex, and in about four months, it ended up as the present single-player FPS adventure game. Now, the same game is available on Steam and it provides a great showcase of what one person with a lot of talent and passion can do.
Teomim Island is at its core an adventure game built around the concepts of combat and survival. The players take on a character who has to survive on a mysterious island. This place has a lot of dangers in store, including wild animals and something much worse. As the players begin exploring the island and fending off dangerous creatures, they also have to collect loot and things that will help them survive. Besides, there is a strong sense that the island is much more than it first appears to be.
The game provides polished graphics, a day-night cycle, a range of interior and exterior locations, as well as a simple but gripping survival horror storyline. It also offers a range of weapons and other inventory items, like armored vests and medkits. More than anything else, however, it is a showcase of what only a single determined developer can create.
If you're both a fan of FPS horror survival and indie games, including upcoming independent developers, this is a title you need to try out. To do so, find Teomim Island on Steam and begin your island survival adventure right now!
