The release of _Zelter_ [3], the zombie-apocalypse survival game, is just around the corner, and to celebrate, the first demo of this cute-yet-challenging survival sim is now available for a limited time! Released by publisher Super.com [4] and developer G1 Playground [5] as part of the Steam Game Festival: Autumn Edition [6], the demo drops you right into the thick of things, challenging you to build up your shelter while crafting needed tools for surviving attacks by brain-biting baddies. Grab the demo now and see how long you can last in _Zelter_’s_ _demanding (yet eye-catching) apocalypse. [7] Featuring a special fenced-off area, the _Zelter _demo aims to give players a taste of their post-apocalyptic future and prepare them for the zombie hordes to come. Players will be able to craft supplies to fend off zombie attacks, explore their gated community, and even catch a glimpse of the larger, tougher, meaner zombies, who are just itching to bring players to a grisly end. _Zelter _takes a cute pixelated art-style, adds a dash of upbeat music, and mixes it all together for a post-zombie-apocalypse crafting and survival experience like no other. Use your skills to craft tools for survival and defense, start a farm, and head out into the world to scavenge supplies while saving lives. Zombies will come for you eventually — so prepare yourself and your home by getting your defenses ready and your machine gun turrets fully loaded. After all — a zombie apocalypse is tough to overcome, even if it’s in a charming pixelated universe. _Zelter _will arrive on Steam’s Early Access on October 22, 2020.
