Evaluation

Flesh Eaters launched on May 3, 2016 and received a handful of patches and a new maps DLC (December 15, 2017) before the developer posted a clear closing statement on February 18, 2018. In that post, the developer explicitly announced that the February 2018 bug-fix patch was the final update for the game, citing the complexity of the codebase and the financial cost of continued maintenance. They directed players to follow news about the sequel instead. The store description reinforces this finality in an unusual but transparent way: it openly documents two bugs described as "unfixable" and permanently present in the game, which is consistent with a developer who has closed out work on the title. All DLC (a single new maps pack) was released on December 15, 2017. No unreleased DLC exists, and no further content has ever been announced for Flesh Eaters itself. The developer's subsequent communications — across 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025 — focus entirely on successor games (Chromosome Evil, Chromosome Evil 2, Welcome Back Commander) and new projects, with no mention of returning to Flesh Eaters. The game is complete. Development concluded in February 2018 per the developer's own statement.

About this game

Flesh Eaters is a retro style single-player RTS zombie survival game with resource gathering and crafting.

Zombies are everywhere!

You must gather resources to build barricades, upgrade weapons and armor, and explore the city under the siege of the dead.

★ Equip and upgrade different weapons and armor for your survivors.

★ Level up and upgrade your survivor's stats

★ Gather resources to build barricades and defend your survivors against the horde.

★ Fight against different types of zombies

★ 3 different survivor classes to choose from, each class has 3 unique skills.

Solider - The soldier can equip weapons and armor.

Medic - The medic can heal other survivors and equip melee weapons.

Engineer - The engineer can build turrets, traps and equip melee weapons.

The game has 2 unfixable bugs due to various reasons:

- the game does not save equipment but also know that the save feature is optional, one playthrough can take under 1 hour.

- Mele Katana on Engineer causes the game to crash.
