The Load Off

A cheeky survivor management sim about rebuilding the world—one generation at a time.

You're managing a survivors camp where survivors are both your greatest asset and your primary export. Breed them strategically, trade them profitably, watch your choices echo across generations.

Recruit survivors from the wasteland. Breed them strategically to improve genetics. Trade your best ones to demanding clients for supplies and morale. The catch? You need to balance immediate profits against long-term genetic goals. Every generation, you face the same tension: breed your best survivors to improve your bloodlines, or trade them for the supplies you need right now? There's no easy answer—and that's the point.

You're running a morally-flexible operation where people are both your greatest resource and your primary product. Make the tough calls. Optimize the genetics. Every choice in events and contracts shapes your camp's future—and there are no easy answers.

Every generation, your survivors age 18 years. Your breeding decisions compound—offspring inherit the genetic improvements you've built, but contracts demand perfection now. You're always balancing the future against the present. The longer you play, the deeper the impact of every choice you made.

It's strategy with a cheeky twist—where genetic optimization meets morally questionable decisions, and every choice shapes your community's future (and yes, the bedroom).

На русском языке иконки персонажей переворачиваются и смещаются, по крайней мере так на сайте.

Игра прикольная, но пока не хватает какой-то живности, всё кажется однотипным. Было бы прикольно добавить персонажам смену эмоций, позы во время секса, некие комментарии от них, совместимость или не совместимость тех или иных персонажей. Не хватает построек, какого-то изменения внешнего вида базы после улучшения.

Hello, thanks for the bug report! This is a bug in the render textures and is still one that we have to figure out. We may do a massive overhaul in the ui soon. Thanks again!

A few suggestions:

  1. Maybe add the function of creating custom characters for the recruiting at one point in the future.
  2. I know it would sound scandalous, but maybe add a purchasable upgrade that allows same-sex mating to produce offspring. Maybe the option becomes accessable if a certain threshold is passed (something science-y or something).
  3. Improvement of the scrolling down in the recruitment list, because it is sluggish as all hell!
  4. For the upgrades, maybe an option that allows bulk purchasing could help reduce the mouse button abuse. My mouse laments the constant clicking...

Yo, thanks for the feedback. We’ve got updates on our Patreon that haven’t been made public yet.

  1. We have the ability to make a custom player character right now. We’ll definitely find some reason to extend this to making custom NPCs too image.png
  2. Yes, lore wise we were thinking that having a survivor with the ‘Goddess’ job in camp would make this possible
  3. This has been fixed with a paged view in newer version too
  4. Recruit All is yet another thing that is in our newest builds

It be cool if you actually showed the pregnancies.

Yes, we’ve added this to a newer versionimage.png

I cant really play the demo. On my phone s25 there are problems. 

1 - the top bar is not visible,  i just worked out something should show there

2 - in recruit menu there is a black box behind that looks wrong, and more importantly the recruit button does not respond so cant progress

Another tip, when you start the game it stays on a brown screen for awhile when jt first loads. Even with my good internet i wasnt sure if it was broken. Should say loading at minimum

Edit: just to add it does look cool, i hope you are encouraged by feedback not discouraged!

Thanks for the feedback. We definitely want the game to be playable on mobile and need to work out a better loading screen too

The newest update includes adjustments to the mobile UI and a loading screen after the opening sequence.

The recruit menu still needs more work, but it is ready for another look

Seems like a fun concept but the game seems very buggy as of right now. Some text boxes aren't displayed correctly (e.g. displaying behind the UI) and energy doesn't seem to work like it's supposed to (e.g. you can just keep going after your enegry reached 0). Would love to see this game turn out good in the future

For the issue with energy reaching 0, could it be the cheats are enabled? Looking into this and thanks for the feedback

Unless cheats are enabled by default, I don't think I had them enabled
