VELKRION: THE FIRST BREACH
The outbreak starts at the Main Camp. Hold on until the gate opens.
Overview
VELKRION: THE FIRST BREACH is a top-down, 2D pixel-art zombie survival shooter set at the very start of an outbreak. You play a soldier at a military outpost, the Main Camp, just as communications fail and the camp’s defences begin to give way.
The first chapter is playable now as a free demo. Search the dark camp with your flashlight, find weapons and supplies, get the generator running to bring the power back, then survive five minutes of growing attacks while the security gate slowly opens.
The game is in active development. The demo may contain bugs, balance issues and unfinished parts, and anything in it can still change.

- Seven zombie types: Walker, Runner, Armored, Brute, Spitter, Crawler and Alpha, each with its own behaviour
- Interactive objects: doors, documents, ammo crates, weapon pickups, a fuse and an electrical panel
- A generator and power system: restore power and the camp lights come back on one by one
- A security gate that takes five minutes to open, and a defence against attack waves from several directions while it does
- Survival-focused play: you do not have to kill every zombie, you have to make it out
- A checkpoint save once the generator is running
These features describe the Chapter 1 demo that is available today. Everything may still change during development.
