Overview: 1945—Hitler won the war by splicing animal DNA with human DNA: The Binary Super Soldier (half man, half german shepherd). They tore through the world's warriors like presents on Christmas morning. But, The Führer didn't stop there. He continued experimenting and created The Binary Elite. You are the chosen one, the very first Binary Elite Super Soldier, designed to usher his reign to the end of time. But will you? HELL no. In campaign mode "The Awakening" you'll learn who you are and what The Führer has planned for you. You'll fight your way through obstacles and plenty of Binary Super Soldiers. As you fight your way to freedom, you will learn of the other 3 Binary Elite: Grizz (The Bear), Carol ("The Stork"), and Hanz ("The Shepherd"). In DEFIANCE MODE, which is an infinite-round horde survivor game mode, you can choose to play as any of the 4 Binary Elite (Harey, Carol, Grizz, or Hanz). Each character has their own unique abilities, weapons, and special ability. You can also play DEFIANCE MODE with up to 3 friends, each choosing your own character.

Design: Camp Z is an alternate history, WWII, 2D side scrolling strategic shooter. The design of the levels and characters is a unique collage style art that is paired with a simple user-interface and bold typography. You will have two primary weapons, a melee, and a special. When playing on a controller (X-Box recommended) the controls will feel comfortable for those used to playing FPS games. The game features a custom soundtrack that was designed for the rooms and story themes of THE AWAKENING. It also pairs with the escalating intensity of DEFIANCE MODE and changes tracks as you progress higher and higher in rounds, the most difficult rounds feature the main theme song.

Fun Facts:

Camp Z: The Awakening was created by 2 people with help from 1 amazing music composer.
DEFIANCE MODE: "Infinity!!!" There is no end to DEFIANCE MODE. Play for bragging rights by reaching the highest round in the shortest amount of time as you strive to dominate the leaderboard.
The first version of the main theme song was created by the founder at 2ish AM after playing “Papers Please” for hours.

Camp Z is a WWII alternate-history, 2D side scrolling, strategic shooter. It is a work of fiction made in the context of reality, intended to honor those who fought for the freedom of the world. In no way is it intended to glorify evil, but to honor the perpetual fight against it. I intend to carry forward the memory of my grandfathers, who both fought in WWII, and to honor all those who fought and fight for goodness to prevail.

Please spread the word about Camp Z. My intent is to continue building this world and story. In Camp Z The Awakening, you will learn about the world of CAMP Z and begin your fight against tyranny. It is your training. Train well.
