Share:

Long Gone is an upcoming indie video game developed by Hillfort Games, a small studio led by solo developer Vin Hillfort. Announced in 2022, it’s a 3D pixel-art adventure game with a post-apocalyptic setting, blending retro aesthetics with modern gameplay twists. Channeling the spirit of ’90s adventure games, this heartfelt homage is coming soon to Steam.

Long Gone is set decades after an unspecified outbreak that has left the world in ruins. You take on the role of a survivor stranded in an overgrown, decaying suburban neighborhood frozen in time. The environment itself is framed as the “main character,” with the belongings of its long-departed residents telling a story of lives interrupted.

Additionally, The game opposes a stark, post-apocalyptic backdrop with a lighthearted tone and dark comedy, punctuated by the presence of zombies shuffling through the streets. Unlike survival-focused titles, Long Gone emphasizes exploration and narrative over combat, with zombies posing more as environmental puzzles than direct threats.

Long Gone is a point-and-click adventure where you explore fully interactive 3D houses and 2.5D streets, rummaging through drawers, cupboards, and boxes to uncover items and secrets. Overgrown streets require platforming skills to navigate, with puzzles integrated into the environment.

A robust inventory management system lets you collect, combine, drop, or hoard items, encouraging experimentation to progress through the story and solve challenges. The focus is on piecing together the lives of the neighborhood’s former inhabitants through their forgotten possessions, creating an emotional, story-rich experience.
