NVYVE Studios today announced that P.A.M.E.L.A., the first-person, open world, utopian, sci-fi, survival horror game, is available now on Steam Early Access. The Steam Early Access version contains all of the core elements that make up the P.A.M.E.L.A. experience: players will loot items and weapons to survive, construct safe havens, upgrade their character and equipment, defend themselves against hostile citizens, and explore a huge, open sci-fi city.
Adam Simonar, Studio Director of NVYVE Studios, said:
“We’re hugely excited to share P.A.M.E.L.A. with players across the world. Situating the core aspects of the survival genre within our handcrafted sci-fi setting has not been without challenge but we believe P.A.M.E.L.A. now presents a unique proposition. Eden is alive with the richness and detail of a once functional city, a perfect backdrop for the player’s own story of survival, and truth they will uncover. We hope players take delight in the world, in the quiet moments amidst the conflict. Early Access represents the next step for the development of the game as we begin to work closely with the community to evolve P.A.M.E.L.A, their input crucial to the features and content we will introduce between now and the game’s full commercial launch.”
P.A.M.E.L.A. features a rich combat system, complete with dodging, blocking, and melee and ranged weapons which can be upgraded to unlock special effects.
The full version of P.A.M.E.L.A. will include several new areas, weapons, items, enemies, and most notably, a fleshed out, non-linear narrative for the player to uncover as they survive.
Enjoy!

Wait… this looks promising.
woop, another samey open world survival game that’s rolling with low level assets and will likely spend another 2-3 years in development, hence the ea money being very much needed (and it very much is, because they could make the game without ea money, so it’s obvious they need it).
I don’t actually mind open world survival games, but I’m sick to death of shoddily made survival games, where they are cobbled together with Unity assets or low level visuals and buggy mechanics/movement.
Problem with this type of approach, is that if the game is largely designed around multiplayer only or multiplayer first, your player base will start of decently, sometimes badly and throughout the ea period it will only get smaller and smaller, so by release you’ve got a mediocre game with a dying userbase.
“woop, another samey open world survival game”
Nope
“and will likely spend another 2-3 years in developmen
again nope.
Nope?.
It is a single player game. It says so on the Steam page. No mention of multiplayer. Did you even read it ?
And multiplayer will never ever happen?, you can see the definitive future?.
I’m not saying multiplayer will never happen, I’m simply responding to your comment. You stated
“Problem with this type of approach, is that if the game is largely

The game is not starting with multiplayer as it doesn’t currently have it. You didn’t say that if down the road multiplayer comes along it will ruin the game, you implied that it already had it and also implied that it only had multiplayer.
You do realise that when it eventually goes down that road, that it was included in the devs vision to begin with right?.
Same goes for devs that go “X game is exclusive to Y consoles”, then it comes out for PC/other consoles months later, which entails that it was always within their vision to release on other systems to begin with, just because they didn’t state it was going to happen, doesn’t mean it won’t.
I find it funny that for someone who asked me if I could see the future has done nothing but speculate about possible paths the game could take and talk about “if this” and “maybe that”. I have done nothing but stick to the facts of the game as they are known. Maybe I should ask you if you can see the future as you’re the one trying to predict it.
Still didn’t answer my question of you being able to see the future, so before you reverse it on me, answer it first.
I find it more funny how you’re cocok sure to go “you made a mistake”, than simply answering the question, but I guess that’s par the course for people on the ent these days.
You’re the only one talking about futures, my statements have had to do with the present. I don’t have to be able to see the future to talk about the facts of the present.
I asked and you still didn’t answer.
Haven’t I ? What are answers but gateways to more questions which will will be lost in time like tears in rain or a leaf in the wind.
No, you actually haven’t, you’ve been going in circles since I asked the question, based entirely on a supposed “mistake” that you so desperately fight tooth and nail to “correct”.
Also that last part: https://youtu.be/8PwBhgWyhyY?t=22
When you can understand my words you will be ready for my answer grasshopper. Until then open your mind. Also I didn’t mistake what you said. You were saying the game was multiplayer which it isn’t.
I think you spend too much time commenting.
More than a game in EA.
Actually the opposite. I’m very much able to comment and game, not that there are any specific rules as to how people are to comment and game mind you.
I’ve been looking forward to this for a while. Not enough to drop $28 CAD for an early access game but enough to be happy it is progressing.
The only Early Access game I bought into was DayZ, and it’s laughably still in alpha.
Got it – currently it is not playable, too many technical problems (3+ minutes of load time, constant hang ups (restart of the game is required) in random actions (like just watching cryo pod right behind you in first 10 seconds of the game). Need patching, potentially it is nice game but it is hard to see it now.
They should named the protagonist Anderson,a former lifeguard
