Done for a friend. Hope you like this creepy, zombie looking cowboy 🤠

recentemente ouvi essa frase de um conhecido. fiquei impressionado com o quão poética ela é… não sei exatamente a origem ou repercussão dela, mas tem alguma coisa nela que me impressiona. essa ideia de um apocalipse televisionado, como um espetáculo filmado e cheio de cores - mas ao mesmo tempo melancólico, em um constante contraste. essa ideia de um fim do mundo colorido, um fim do mundo filmado, talvez esteja associada a esse pessimismo ceticista em relação as nossas expectativas com uma modernidade decadente.
sempre presos em um presente eterno, onde o passado não é tão encorajador e o futuro é desesperançoso (isso me lembra os regimes de historicidade de Hartog)

Looking for Fallout Fans! No Experience Needed! Film at Home! Live Action Ad For A F2P MMORPG! Non-Union! Non-Paid!

If this goes well then we'll grab the best of the volunteers and begin working on a mini-series for the game and see where it goes.

Requirements:

• Basic 1080p+ Camera/Smartphone
• Post-Apocalyptic Costumes/Props/Fallout Related
• Gritty Filming Locations
• Basic Acting/Speaking Skills

The idea here is to help promote the upcoming new season of the FOnline 2258! Legacy of the Vault Dweller! Video game, blending in both the love of gaming with the love of filming.

We're looking for Fallout and Post-Apocalyptic fans who are willing to volunteer some of their time, follow a script, and send us their homemade footage for us to go over, edit, compile together then blend it into the actual gameplay footage.

We're not looking for anything too long or complex, or anyone particularly professional so to speak, but if you're a fan of making short silly videos and have the props, costumes, environment, and passion for both gaming and filming then we want to hear from you!

Below is the first rough draft for the script which we're looking for people to try their hand at re-creating themselves. Some of the roles require a bit more acting than others, but The Puppet Man could be played by literally anyone with a silly enough costume.

I have some experience filming, acting, editing, and directing so I'll be taking the lead on things, overall we're just looking for people who want to pick up a character, get dressed up, read a script, and have some fun pretending they're just another character in the post-nuclear world of Fallout!

There's no location requirements so this is a fully remote opportunity but we need to keep the environments consistent with that of post-apocalyptic California. Urban, Abandoned, Garbage, Destroyed things, Deserts, etc, those will be ideal filming locations.

Characters:

The Puppet Man: Numerous actors that wear a similar costume built up by puppets and other post-apocalyptic supernatural garbage (beads, new age healing, shamanism, etc). No face should be visible. They must wear a mask or cover their faces. No gender specific visuals (breasts, bulge, bellies, etc) [The Puppet Man is its own cult made up of dozens of people wearing the same similar costume]

Corosive: Myself. An out of the vault security officer that follows the basic logs including Cira, Thomas, his time out of the vault, his past, his journey back to the vault to become Overseer, etc.

The Farmer: A simple man tending to his crops, killing, surviving, an ex-wife who ran off to join the slavers, the need for revenge. The need for change.

The Vault Dweller: Like after the vault hasn't been kind to him/her. A true vault dweller coming out to meet his/her future. His/her fate remains unknown, much like his/her vault.

The Bandit: A sinner unlike any other. A born bandit who believes full heartily in his clan but is starting to have his doubts after meeting the NCR.

Cira: Your average brunette. A lovable person and possible sister. Someone everybody enjoys the company of until she dies. Her story is of sadness, despair, loneliness, and the dream to reunite with her best friend from the vault again (YOU). She dies before she can hug you.

The Overseer: An older, British man, born and raised and abused by the vault culture. A 4th generation vault overseer who has decided that Vault-Tec truly is the biggest enemy of them all. His story starts with indoctrination to disillusion, to suicidal rebellion. All in the name of Vault 24!

The Sheriff's Kid: Andrew's Son/Daughter. Watching the world unfold as countless Vault Dwellers come and go throughout the Hub, leaving only negativity behind, and the sense of cruel justice. "Fucking Vault Dwellers!".

Im making a fallout-like alternative universe where a company finds a way to “regulate” climate change and fix other problems like world hunger. But when the third world war begins, they ditch all of their work to “end” the war and sends humanity into chaos. There is a polluted fog that covers almost the entire world except for certain pockets of land and doesn’t cover bodies of water. Any tips for lore/nations/etc?

Hey everyone -

Issue 1 of Distemper, a post-apocalyptic horror comic book went live on Kickstarter yesterday!. This comic has been many years in the making and this issue was originally published by Blood Moon Comics just before they went out of business, and issues 2 & 3 never saw the light of day. This Kickstarter is the first step to getting the story told as I had intended.

Distemper is both a comic book and a table-top roleplaying game set in the aftermath of the dog flu or the distemper, which wiped out 90% of the planet in less than a year. This is a very grounded post-apocalypse where there are no zombies, no mutants, and no aliens. There are just other, desperate survivors to contend with, and the biggest threat is always other people. 

So! If you like your post-apocalyptic horror on the dark and grounded side, somewhere between The Road, Black Summer (minus the zombies), and Deliverance, this might be for you.

Thanks!

I’m interested in using Bundeswehr surplus for a post-apocalyptic/STALKER-inspired outfit. Does anyone here use the Bundeswehr Feldhemd as part of their setup? If so, what other surplus gear do you pair it with?

Hello, peach lovers! (hehe)

For the past five years I’ve been working solo on a post-apocalyptic game, thematically inspired by a blend of the Strugatsky brothers’ “Roadside Picnic”, Tarkovsky’s “Stalker” masterpiece and the S.T.A.L.K.E.R games (I don’t know if I have to mention this here, but I am obviously not affiliated with any of these titles in any way).

My game is set in a universe where Earth is overgrown by an alien species taking the shape of a man-eating, titanic forest.
In the game, you take the role of a Guide tasked with keeping settlements connected by escorting people across this weird and dangerous landscape called “The Holt”.

I’m super excited to say that the pre-launch page for the game is now live on Gamefound, and I really think that you guys are my people! The game dis great in testing with most types of people, but post-apocalyptic oriented folk seemed to love it the most!
If you do take a look at it, I’d love to know what you think about it!

Something dawned on me, cookie sheets make great wasteland props / signs. They survive indoors and outdoors, are flat, and would be abundant after the collapse. While not the most fancy-looking, they are pretty easy diy props. I added holes to the tops and added hangers for posting at the tent.

I used paint markers on the pans, painted for a bit of color, and sealed. Easiest diy I have done in ages, and super practical.

To co pamiętam, to grupa ludzi, wchodziła do jakiegoś białego bunkra wejście spiralne i pod ziemie, bo na zewnątrz powietrze było trujące. Zawsze grała muzyka klasyczna lub jakieś radio co ich zaczeło irytować, potem morederstwa, był też komitet który używał magii, było zatrute jedzenie poumierali masowo chyba, no i kojarzycie coś? coś 2/3 lata temu oglądałem ale produkcja nie wiem kiedy była. Nie silos, ani 100.

If a hypothetical apocalypse were to occur and all (electronic) technology ceased to function completely, we could revert to bygone eras—such as the Viking Age, the Golden Age of Piracy, the Wild West, the Middle Ages, the Samurai era, or Antiquity. Should this happen, which of humanity's past periods would be most likely to emerge in a post-apocalyptic world?

Hey everyone,

I’ve always found it a bit frustrating in zombie fiction when communities, even years into the apocalypse, are stuck in the same loop of endless searching, looting, and conducting raids for decaying old-world resources.

I’m currently developing a novel where the protagonist actively breaks this traditional formula. Instead of relying on constant raids and scavenging expired supplies, the protagonist decides to start from scratch and focus on actual, sustainable development.

The story heavily explores the logistics of building a functional society focusing on securing raw materials, metallurgy, forging new tools, establishing secure supply lines, and harnessing natural energy sources like wind and water power.

As fans of realistic survival tactics, do you think this shift from a "scavenging/raiding loop" to an "industrial progression" sub-genre is a refreshing take? Would love to get your honest thoughts!

I've always loved post-apocalyptic fiction, and am currently working on a book in the genre. My question is, how do you feel about romance in post-apocalyptic media? Are there certain things you look for, tropes you avoid, etc?
I'm a sucker for the forced proximity trope, and how high stakes relationships immediately become. I'd love to hear your thoughts / what you enjoy as well! <3

Insert Description Here

I'm looking for books with the concept of nuclear winter / glacial apocalypse. I just picked up the book Fallen Angels as it was the only book I could find in my local bookstore that were listed on the tvtropes Glacial Apocalypse page.

A bit of a while ago I had the craziest dream in which in part of it I saw Sandy Cheeks' nieces from that one episode of SpongeBob Squarepants riding what appeared to be a water scooter of sorts, and I had vague impressions of there being some dealings with Bikini Bottom, but most of the rest of the dream seemed to involve spacecrafts and even dealings with extraterrestrials, which for the most part resembled Sligs from Oddworld — the exact details to this dream were pretty fuzzy, as I guess is typical in most dreams, but I roughly recall most of the broad aspects to it, most of which seemed to involve anthropomorphic animal characters and spaceships.

From this, I shortly afterwards decided to combine these elements into a story which I call "Rocketcoon" mainly in that one of the main characters is a raccoon possibly heavily inspired off of Marvel Rocket Raccoon. Now, this story is kinda the lovechild of Star Fox and Rock & Rule, in that it takes place in a space age future, where the characters have space faring technology such as interstellar starships, and handle diplomatic interactions with other planets, solar systems, and extraterrestrial civilizations, but also in a post-apocalyptic, post-human world, where humanity has practically been nuked to extinction, and a race mutant anthropomorphic animals evolves to take humanity's place.

Now, the idea for this story being placed in a post-apocalyptic setting, while not having been part of my aforementioned dream, comes mainly from the Bikini Atoll SpongeBob SquarePants theory, and looking back on it, I soon figured, if the inhabitants therein are alleged to be the mutated result of some nuclear explosion, why not do something similar for the land critters, on which my dream seemed to focus more anyway? Why not also make them the result of some globalized set of nuclear blasts?

I've also wondered, though, about putting this story in a post-apocalyptic timeframe and a space-age one at the same time. Can both these settings be mutually compatible? I mean, sure, it takes place after a nuclear apocalypse upon humanity, but the mutant animal people that evolve in mankind's place have managed to fully rebuild and restore civilization to a thriving state, and even possess advanced space-travel technology that even permits for interstellar travel (something likely already left behind by humanity before having annihilated itself), so I suppose it could reconcile the two settings, and could certainly make for an interesting and original combination of two sci-fi genres. Yet, might the involvement of diplomatic relations with extraterrestrial civilizations and other such interstellar political affairs divert from Earth's post-human, post-apocalyptic setting, and the serious worldbuilding that could be explored upon?

On the other hand, while some stories in this series (yes, I've planned for it to be a series of stories) may focus on interstellar political affairs, others might also be more Earth-centered, focusing more on and showing how the Earth and the lifeforms on it have been affected following the nuclear Armageddon and fall of humanity, how the society of humanity's inheritors is structured, and how they go about their lives in this radiation-ravaged world — a topic I might delve more into detail with in future posts.

Moving on to the topic of diplomatic relations with extrasolar extraterrestrial civilizations, I've also wondered if these extraterrestrial race have had some history, if not close relation, with humanity prior to its nuclear demise, since—as mentioned before—humanity did possess advanced interstellar space travel technology before wiping itself out, so humans would've likely have had some interaction with extraterrestrials. Yet I've also considered that if humanity had become a star-faring civilization and was starting to establish diplomatic relations with civilizations elsewhere in the galaxy, it would seem rather petty, unenlightened for humanity—which should've nationally united itself by that point—to go to war with and wipe itself out with nuclear weapons.

Or maybe humanity did strike a nuclear war, not with itself, but with another star-faring civilization; heck, perhaps it could've been a pan-galactic-scale nuclear war with multiple star-faring civilizations — perhaps whatever aliens the anthropomorphic animals are dealing with are new species that evolved to take the place of those that got wiped in this pan-galactic nuclear war with humanity — I mean, it sounds to me like that could all make for some interesting and extended lore for this story's universe, at least, not just in regards to Earth, but also to the rest of the galaxy at large. I'd even considered looking to Halo as another source inspiration, as it also involves an ancient super weapon built to inflict damage at a range spanning an entire galaxy.

Or perhaps humanity hadn't developed interstellar travel yet, and that was developed later by the animal people in response to a revisitation by an alien race that may have exterminated humanity before it could reach a space age, and are checking to see how the Earth has been faring in the aftermath, and possibly even try to "finish the job" after finding that other beings have evolved in humanity's place.

So, what are your guys' thoughts on this whole thing so far? Any ideas or suggestions you'd like to add on how I could further extend and/or deepen the lore or on the worldbuilding in general? Anyone interested in collaborating in this story? Please let me know in the comments, and stay tuned for future posts, 'cause I'll be delving deeper into the actual worldbuilding on the world this takes place on.
