Her days are numbered, and now she must protect her son Cody and teach him valuable skills to prepare him for the life after Anling\u2019s demise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anling and Cody each have hunger and thirst meters, so you have to manage your limited resources to maintain their health. You\u2019ll visit various locations to find food, water, crafting materials, and other valuables. Sometimes, you might have to prioritize who to feed first. For Anling, her son\u2019s life is the top priority, but if Anling herself is not healthy enough to explore and fight, then she can\u2019t protect Cody.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1207\" height=\"675\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1207px) 100vw, 1207px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-001.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4011\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-001.jpg 1207w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-001-600x336.jpg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-001-380x213.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-001-768x429.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-001-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-001-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-001-696x389.jpg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-001-1068x597.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-001-751x420.jpg 751w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Cody will learn from the actions of his mother, and it is important to teach him the basics of survival to prepare him for the future. Skills are divided into three categories: survival, combat, and crafting. Teach him how to cook, fight, and let him learn on-site by asking Cody to examine objects or by letting him see how Anling fights. Doing so will improve Cody\u2019s parameters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The world map exists in a blank state at first. As you progress in the story and visit new places for the first time, you can \u201cstrategically place key locations on the world map as Anling \u2018remembers\u2019 where they are.\u201d Strategic location placement seems to play a key role here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And of course, you\u2019ll be facing a number of zombies while exploring. Use baseball bats and iron pipes to fight back. Cody may become too frightened to move after a battle, so go talk to him, and take good care of him.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1207\" height=\"675\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1207px) 100vw, 1207px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-002.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4010\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-002.jpg 1207w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-002-600x336.jpg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-002-380x213.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-002-768x429.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-002-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-002-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-002-696x389.jpg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-002-1068x597.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211013-178759-002-751x420.jpg 751w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>If you\u2019re interested, you can check out the game\u2019s demo version on <a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/638990\/UNDYING\/?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Steam<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Undying, a \u201clife after bitten\u201d zombie survival, will enter Steam Early Access on Oct.19.
