I am developing an expansive open-world/sandbox TWD (The Walking Dead) game and I need some help.

Hello everyone. First of all, I want to clarify that this is not a fake post or anything of the sort; I am genuinely developing a game. I have a few questions and requests, but before that, I’d like to introduce my game.

The game is set in \*The Walking Dead\* universe. Our protagonist, Rickon—a 38-year-old sheriff in California and a father—is shot while on duty. He wakes up in a hospital to find that the world has completely changed; the "walkers" (zombies) have taken over. (I intentionally modeled the game's storyline after \*The Walking Dead\* series.) From this point on, the player enters an open world filled with looters, innocent settlers, and zombies—and our character is not alone. I am planning for there to be, fundamentally, three paths available to our character:

1. The player explores the city, scavenges for loot, meets various NPCs, establishes their own settlement, and gradually develops it into a full-fledged civilization (this process will be highly detailed, involving a construction system, task delegation among NPCs, tracking the morale of individual NPCs, etc.).

2. The player realizes that the "good" cannot survive in this world and chooses a darker path. They can either form their own band of raiders or join an existing, larger raider faction—conducting raids on settlements, killing or capturing people, looting, and so on.

3. (My personal favorite) Unable to find their family, the player decides to live alone in the wilderness—perhaps by a river in the forest—pursuing a quiet, peaceful life while gradually building up their own base.

While these three paths form the core, the aspect of the game that will likely take me dozens of hours to develop is creating a "living world." By this, I mean that NPC settlements will grow over time—or collapse due to raider attacks—while raider groups, bases, and various factions will engage in conflicts with one another.

However, implementing all of this—even on a 2D isometric map—will likely require 100,000 to 150,000 lines of code.

I want to ensure that all this hard work doesn't go to waste. That is why I need to know: if I were to develop this game, would you stand behind me and offer your support?

I have been involved in game development for a long time and certainly have the time to dedicate to this; I simply want to understand your perspective—as players—on a game like this. PLEASE SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS

(I have now created the skeleton/foundation of the game.)

I'm working on reviving this game, and I need your help to bring it back to life.

I'm looking for old game files, including APK and OBB files. If anyone still has the game installed on their phone or has a backup of the original game files, please share them with me.

These files could be extremely helpful in the revival process. Even if you have an old version of the game, please don't hesitate to share it.

Current Development Progress

I'm currently working on building the Town, characters, and character animations, with the goal of preserving the original look, feel, and gameplay experience as closely as possible.

Battle System Demo

A demo of the battle system will be available for review starting this weekend, upon personal request.

The project is still under development, and your feedback and suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

My goal is to bring back the experience we all enjoyed while preserving the original feel of the game.

Any help, no matter how small, would mean a lot.

One day I had an ad for this game. So I randomly downloaded it and suddenly was glued to it. I hadn’t even heard of the show or at least mentally registered it. But here I was just vibing and unlocking new characters to make a better team.. oh and the chat (in the uk) regularly had some weird guy who kept confessing to stealing underwear from women’s washing lines…. I think Glenn just died too during the time I was playing because everyone was talking about it and that’s when I found out it was a tv show 😂 I watched the show much later, enjoyed most of it but it got a bit boring toward last few seasons….
Anyway I wanted to redownload the game and find my account. But it’s gone…. Thanks to the people who made it fun and were friendly all those years ago and I hope the pant stealing man has found peace and stopped… oh and the American guy who kept sending pictures of a grill he got. I hope you stopped harassing women. And the rest of the people who were active in the community thank you

I believe all the former players still have ties to some members of their old faction—it's no different here in Brazil! Our faction, THE LAST SURVIVORS (ranked #6 in the last WoC), still keeps our group online and active. It's a shame we haven't yet found a game close enough to what TWDRTS was to get us playing together again; our former leader showed a preview of his personal project... what do you think?

I know it's probably just a coincidence, but isn't it kind of crazy? I mean the same purple outfit, She has gold rings, just like Mythic Trader's gold accessories as well and everything.

I took a long break from the game and decided you know what I wanna play the game today, so I check to see the notification when you load up why did they shutdown?

I remember first downloading this game with my older brother and his friend. I was maybe 12-13 at the time- it was during 5* Negans release I believe, the one where you had to collect Michonne/Glenn heads in order to redeem the guy. I remember getting my first ever 5 star, which was a fast Sophia, got in trouble since I was playing it in class but i was overjoyed regardless. I played the game religiously until the servers shut down and I’ve just felt empty ever since.

I never did spend a lot of money on the game, I was never in the best faction, never got the cool 5 war rewards. Even missed out on the 4\ Wendy shop glitch. By all accounts I truly never excelled in the game on a competitive level but I adored it beyond belief. collecting all of the telltale toons was a huge highlight for me as it’s my favourite game series of all time. I don’t think I’ll ever manage to move on from this game and all the memories it gave me but I’ll be here, holding onto hope that a miracle happens and they decide to restart. A pipe dream for sure but I don’t want to move on* 💔

I still had over 2000 war energy refills, miss this game. It would be slaying right now...have a good day survivors💯

Was cleaning out my device and came across old screenshots. Still missing TWD Road to Survival...especially the social aspect. If any old players from Dade are out there or War Members only miss all of you!!! At one time you were all part of my daily ❤️ Still think of you!!! LIL Syn 🦋💋

Given the rebirth of FF Brave Exvius (a long standing and successful gacha), into FF Resonance, a single player RPG with all of the previous game assets, do yall think there’s any chance that Scopely or any other company would be willing to re-release this game as a single player? I personally wouldn’t mind paying for a new game and be able to access my fave character models again.

Hola a todos, supervivientes de Woodbury. Al igual que muchos de vosotros, el cierre de Road to Survival dejó un vacío importante. He mantenido el cliente del juego en mis dispositivos y, aunque los servidores oficiales ya no responden, el "alma" del juego sigue intacta en nuestros archivos. Mi objetivo: No busco un museo estático. Mi propósito es revivir el juego por completo, devolviéndole la vida a sus eventos, sus pases de temporada y la experiencia completa, manteniendo un espíritu de comunidad justa y sin ánimo de lucro. ¿Qué busco? Como Game Designer y responsable de este proyecto, aporto la visión, los archivos base y el plan de contenidos. Para que Woodbury vuelva a abrir sus puertas, necesito colaboradores técnicos (programadores o expertos en ingeniería inversa) que puedan ayudarme a construir un servidor "espejo" capaz de entender la arquitectura del cliente. El reto principal radica en trabajar con la serialización binaria MessagePack y replicar la comunicación de la API (Retrofit) para que el juego pueda conectar y procesar los datos correctamente. ¿Cómo participar? Busco personas que compartan la pasión por la preservación y el compromiso de mantener este proyecto serio y profesional. Si tienes experiencia técnica (Unity, APK/IL2CPP, ingeniería inversa, MessagePack, desarrollo de servidores) y quieres ser parte de este desafío, envíame un mensaje privado con una breve descripción de tu experiencia. Hagamos que Woodbury vuelva a ser nuestro.

Just wanted to say a short goodbye to the many players I interacted with on the Banks Region. I really enjoyed this game! Sadly, I miss it. Handle: GRANDPA COLIS

Vpn on Poland

Should we hype for this, though I see no sneakpeak around

Countless of resources, refills, tokens etc. I had saved for months and I couldn't even get to use any of them. It felt like all that grinding and saving and patience went to waste. I couldn't even experience the joy of using my resources freely.

(second slide is the front cover)

I think it was for the battle arena. you weren't allowed to use multiple of the same toon but people were.

I miss this game. drove me crazy sometimes.

Lockdown thanks for ur content

2015-2019 was a hell of a time. Never thought I’d miss a mobile game
