We are Doghowl, a relatively small game dev studio from Ukraine. We are currently working on our debut title, Level Zero: Extraction. It’s a tactical extraction shooter mixed with asymmetrical survival horror made in UE5. The game features PvPvE online multiplayer.
After four hard years in development, we’ve finally put the game out there for people to enjoy. Level Zero: Extraction has entered Early Access on Steam, and you can try it right now.
If you’re interested in a deep dive into the game’s features, check out our Launch Overview Trailer. We also have a Discord server where you can follow the development process and chat with our team directly.
Anyways, I (Antishyr, Community Manager), Daniel, the Executive Producer of the game, and Alex, the Art Director, have joined this AMA to answer any questions you may have about Level Zero: Extraction and our studio. Ask us anything!
Feargus Urquhart on The Outer Worlds II: “Development is going really well; I’m really impressed with the team. We have people on this project that just get it and worked on the first game.”
Continued:
We had a hard time at the studio during Covid. We tried to move forward on all these projects. There was talk about scrapping The Outer Worlds II [and Grounded] and to just throw the whole team on Avowed. I appreciate Microsoft and all the teams, we sat down together and said: no. We will get there. Not on the original timeline, but we will get there. And I think now; that’s been proven.
Grounded turned out awesome. Pentiment turned out awesome. Avowed is gonna be great. The Outer Worlds II is looking incredible.
We have a base now with everything we are doing. With Unreal Engine 5 and all our tools [in place] we make the whole next generation of games.”
I bought a PS3 after already owning an Xbox 360, and all these years later…I still kick myself for not buying Demon’s Souls earlier. Within just a week of buying it years after its release, it became basically one of my favorite games ever. I played Demon’s Souls and Dark Souls so much that I regularly had to overwrite my character saves (there was a limit to how many different toons you could have).
By the time I began playing, I would say a significant amount of the people left regularly playing were the tryhards and OGs. Oh…AND FUCK PINK MAGE!!!! I became pretty proficient at pvp, later joining the infamous Umbasa Bros chat (all the pvp legends used this to tourney).
One of my favorite FPS games is Rising Storm 2. So sad I never got to play Red Orchestra 2 during its hey days.
I know that StarCraft II still has a fairly decent sized active community. And it came out in 2010. Are there any older games?
Looking to get into PC gaming for the first time in my life, always been a console gamer, and as I wanna try some classics.
