Press release:
Announced today for PC via Steam, this cozy management sim puts players in the boots of the wasteland’s most indispensable survivor: a traveling gunsmith. Operating out of a customized camper van, you’ll trade with faction mercenaries, local gangs, and lone wanderers who rely on your craftsmanship to survive another day.
Craft, Restore, and Build Your Legacy
Instead of high-stress combat, the gameplay focuses on hands-on workshop physics and customization. Players scavenge for discarded scrap, unlock blueprints, and assemble fully modular firearms. Every component alters a weapon’s value, weight, and firing performance, allowing you to build everything from practical survival rifles to bizarre junk-punk creations. The job also demands restoration work: scraping away decades of rust, swapping worn firing pins, and repainting damaged relics to bring them back to working order.
As your reputation grows, you’ll drive your mobile rig across trading hubs, militia outposts, and hidden ruins. Expanding your workspace with specialized tools unlocks higher-tier commissions, giving you access to rare military scrap and dangerous, high-paying clients.
