Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead is a turn-based survival game set in a post-apocalyptic world. Struggle to survive in a harsh, persistent, procedurally generated world. Scavenge the remnants of a dead civilization for food, equipment, or, if you are lucky, a vehicle with a full tank of gas to get you the hell out of Dodge. Fight to defeat or escape from a wide variety of powerful monstrosities, from zombies to giant insects to killer robots and things far stranger and deadlier, and against the others like yourself, that want what you have…
Gameplay is from Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead's 2023-04-15 experimental release. Experimental builds can be found at cataclysmdda.o...

Mel finding the fox pillow and silently trying not to say anything about it knowing damn well she had a bigass shark plush she regularly snuggles with xD
I was half expecting her to pick it up so Blahaj had some company while Mel was out.

"The Blahaj and the Fox girl's daily slow life without their masters in their mall base." -LN Title.
Truly, only Kirk with his 5 Social Skill, could pull that line with Mel
The dialogue portraits are a nice touch and super adorable!
I'm gonna have to doodle up some more for the other characters we run into. Endrealm did these and I love them but I'm not sure I can afford to commission a drawing of every single NPC in the game!
love the custom character art, Production values continue to impress me. not gonna lie the thumbnail and title had me a little worried Mel wasn't going to make it out of the city.
That 2 AM feel where you're packing in the middle of the night and have the (ir)rational fear you forgot something important just as you're leaving. Even in the zombie apocalypse some things never change.
Throwing shade on her living situation when he was chilln at the entrance to a spider cave without even a chair or table. Throwing a rock from his glass house at her cardboard+ house.
hahaha
Your absolutely deadpan, matter-of-fact "Fox body pillow" cracked me up for some reason.
The very long pause... "Fox body pillow."
Proof Furries did in fact survive the Apocalypse...
if your planning to live in the mall long term, it might be worth setting up an electric grid, you can use the building window with pliers or a multi tool to reveal wiring, and can then plug in some solar panels from the roof and a battery through the build menu as well (a car battery will do), then set up a fridge or freezer, a standing light will let you turn on the room lights, and you could connect a hotplate to the makeshift grid to cook with as well.
Wait what, I question always why when I check the fridge or any electrical unit and they always had an option to attach at something, so it has an actual use? Man, This a great find.
Now it can be even more flexible with extension cords.
Extension cords can be daisy-chained and walls with wiring are completely optional.
And given the changes with regard to how cables work, you can now charge some electronics with grid power.
You can activate a smartphone, select manage cables and then select the grid and the smartphone will draw power from the grid (at a certain rate).
This works with devices that can swap batteries so you can charge batteries.
Adore Kirk & Mel, super awesome to see that Mel finally having an actual friend so she won't go insane alone in the utter darkness of the mall. Maybe she can even try to clean up all the blood around her living space, get some lights or something set up. Would love to have her homeifying her little backroom & making space for Kirk in there as well honestly.
Damn, what a shame that Kirk killed Mel like that right at the end
Can't wait for the next episode!
Big shit comin' from the guy who up until just recently was living in a mutant spider cave. XD
Man made my heart sink and then I grinned at the end.
It's ok. They let you continue playing as your npc now 🤣🤣
They do, which is cool. But, I'd have still felt the loss of Mel.@@SeanJZoning
It was a perfect anime betrayal. 10/10
something about "big slug" at 26:45 really cracked me up. Love this series btw, you do an amazing job.
I’ve been waiting! I gotta say the visuals have grown on me over the series. And I’m appreciating your storytelling even more, works well with my ADHD brain.
there's something about zombies bringing a book named "everything can be beautiful" that is unsettling
Just binged you're whole C:DDA playthrough, super excited to see what you come out with next!
fantastic series so far, its a wormgirl special, the title totally got me i thought i know after the whole explenation about NPC's getting bad rep and then the death at the end that never happened.
great way to fool people :D.
NPCs and factions are a favorite toy when I play.
After watching this series im now attempting to play this game. Attempting being the key word there lol. Keep up the awesome work, I love your storytelling.
the new character art is absolutely top notch. loving it and the series.
Might be the best CDDA let's play on UA-cam! Can't wait for the next episode
Another great episode, look forward to seeing more. Also the "Lemme in, lemme iiiiin!" meme was hilarious. :D
oh no i've realized i'm emotionally invested in Mel's survival. also 763 kills?!?! i'm dizzy
It'll be hard when you got emotionally attached on a survivor, specially in a CDDA gameplay.. specially when the time comes when their luck runs out. Either fighting to death, accidents or anything that the character would be perished by.
However, It is fun when Mel is doing Progress and getting more proficient than what she had started when she just got out the normal life as a model.
Wow I just finished binging this series after starting it 2 days ago and not only was it a fun and well told story, but also it worked really well at getting me, someone who has only had fleeting interest in Cataclysm: DDA in the past, into the game. I really hope you do more content on this game in the future :3
I definitely will, it's only on hold because I have some real life stuff and another big video project to take care of.
@@WormGirlVODs Very excited to see what's coming next :3
I really love what you do with character dialogue. Looking forward to learning more about Kirk
First time to the channel; this is exactly the kind of lets play I like. Not blasting loud, screaming, over the top energy - I like a nice chill session, very relaxing almost bordering on ASMR. Excellent stuff, subbed. 🙂
This series is such a joy. I hope you keep it going
that last line killed me. quality content.
Just want to say I really enjoy your roleplay and narration style even more than Rycon. Also that ending made me bust a gut, girl you live this way? 🤣
Love the series! Thank you so much for introducing me to this game, and showing how to play it. I dont think i couldve gotten into it, if it wasn't for your videos.
One thing I noticed where I might even have a tip you don't know about yet: when you were looking for the item around you that had the sawing quality, you could've searched in the item menu (CRTL+V, then /), and typed "q:sawing". The filters for crafting work in the item view as well!
Whenever I jam a gun safe I bring a welding torch to it. You don't have to worry about ammo cook-off if you pick it all up really quickly! It's safe I swear...
I just smash it apart with a halligan bar, muuuch safer.
@@TheGoldfishAssasinlmao was about to comment exactly that
@@TheGoldfishAssasin Maybe I'm looking in the wrong places, but I rarely ever find halligsn bars. Welding gear is way more common in my experience
@@YourPalKindred IIRC firefighter Z’s and firestations have Halligan bars sometimes.
@@johndoe2431 Yeah thats where I normally find them too. I seem to remember finding one on a soldier Z but idk. On my current run I've cleared 2 firestations, no halligan bars unfortunately. Maybe I'm just unlucky.
Hi there. I was watching you a bit back when you started the tutorial series and then lost track. So glad you found success on YT. You deserve it. Keep making these
love your story telling and game tutoring. thank you for a great series and chill times
:0 I've been so excited for this one! Also more like this please, this series is super comfy for autumn postmigraine sleeps :3
The new art for Mel and Kirk looks so cute!!! 🥹 💗
Oh man, If only I knew the settings, I always got my NPCs die when we go in the area with huge population or a very dangerous enemy, they sometimes even throw their melee weapons or their firearms when they don't have ammo, they rush ahead just to loot, to stomp the dead and they follow me without shutting the doors, which is why in the most part I go solo without experimenting further, but with this I guess I can try to resume finding more survivors with me, i heard that there's also bandits but, I still never met them yet.
Bandits can be really dangerous because of their guns, but they are exciting too.
@@mutantwormgirl
Now you think about it, I wanna stock some Bulletproof armor just in case. I was only shot by that turret robot on the highway, though they're 'sponge' it still deals a heck of a damage, so im expecting a pointed lead is much worse.
Npcs seem pretty determined to kill themselves. Ive had many ignore orders and try to walk through a horde
yes more Worm Girl. this is such a great series. would love some more CDDA beginner guides as well.
Had a bad day, but this was the perfect pick me up to start turning it around,thank you!
i am completely desperate for more of this game i humbly beg for more
It's on the way, sorry for getting distracted!
@@mutantwormgirl oh yay! I just binged the whole series and am going to have to try out the game myself in the meantime!!
Another lovely episode. Can't wait for the next one!
Watched the guides and caught up on the series. All for this moment.
Enjoyed this one a lot, you write and voice dialogue very well! Keeping my thoughts vague so as to not spoil anyone coming to see this episode.
"NPCs get a bad rap."
Kirk: *comments on your living situation*
I wonder why.
Thankyou Worm Girl for helping us keep our mind off things. You tell a wonderful story and Cataclysms an amazing game.
Once again a nice video and endrealm did some really good work on those dialog portraits.
This series was so fun. I can't wait for what's to come. Thanks Worm girl 😁
holy shit i didn't expect to find someone playing this game
It is the best game.
The ending caught me off guard. I love it.
This has been a joy, thanks for all the effort you've put into your vids. All of them have been high class.
for next time: using filters like Q:metal sawing to in the shift-V View Items menu to filter for tools with a specific Quality!
Oh no, Kirk has artwork now, now I’m gonna be way to attached if he dies
ooo finally got the time to watch this, im excited
Love the narration and the character sprites! Keep up with the great work!
awesome episode! cant wait to see more as always :)
Another great episode. Looking forward to see how the story will progress :)
Hello! I play CDDA too so i have a question-How to open a safe? Previously, this could be done with a stethoscope or a jackhammer. I have both, but the game says that I "do not have suitable items with enough charges"
Jackhammers got a little screwy with a recent update, their fuel isn't providing enough power for them to do basic tasks. Try a gas-powered one with a full tank, and if that's not working, go get a heavy sledge hammer or other high-damage blunt weapon and try bashing the safe open.
You can also use an acetylene torch loaded with a welding tank, but beware this will start a small fire in the safe. You will need to use a fire extinguisher to put out the fire when you're done, or the ammo will begin to cook off!
Stethoscopes only work on regular safes, not electronic or gun safes. A gun safe uses a traditional key lock and requires lockpicks to open.
@@mutantwormgirl So thets how it is!Thenks! I used a full gas-powered Jackhamer btw)) Ok will try sladge hammer!
Great work!
It's a blessing to get a CDDA episode.
Yeees, I commented on one of your earlier videos and after watching this series I just want to say THIS IS AMAZING, also if you want another role playing old school rogelike you should totally play Caves Of Qud, it’s lore and mechanics are good but in my opinion cdda is a better role play series
I love Qud! Live and drink, friend.
Qud could def fit your style, not sure what you'd play specifically though. But, lots of thematic options.@@mutantwormgirl
5:58
The way Worm Girl said "Fox body pillow" makes me imagine the delusion of Mellie at the weeb zombie that is now roaming the world in search of his zombie waifu...
Worm Girl \o/
I enjoy your catacylsm stories. Takes my mind off all my boring work I do.
It's good to be home!
Lets gooo , i been waiting for this, thank you for doing this kind of content , you are lovely!!
You know what, Worm Girl? I agree, Big Slug indeed.
I love this series
A visitor has arrived at the mall!
Surprised you haven't moved into a bigger space in the mall yet. I'm like...95% sure it's been cleared out. Especially if you get a few solar panels back along with the resources to throw together a "vehicle" used to power your base.
We will probably ultimately move out of the mall. It's too big and too hard to modify, plus we've spent enough time there already.
Nowadays you don't need a vehicle, you can place appliances as Applicances and wire them together through the walls.
Does Mel actually know any places personally that she'd feel safe moving into though? She's been here a while & worked really hard to clear this space it feels.@@mutantwormgirl
@@albertnewton8296 Don't you still need to build your solar generator as a vehicle?
@@blshouse you can mount both solar panels and batteries as appliances
new worm girl let's go!
Well then, I suppose the next episode or so will be about base building?
Also it's the little things that make your style of rp and narration better than Rycon!
Can't wait to see what happens in future episodes!
Rycon's style is like a Monologue and with a deep story of a survivor and a Narrator not attached to a single character but in a third party.
Worm girl's style is like playing an LN game with records of diaries for the RP, though sometimes she goes for a third party, she also and mostly go for the first person's perspective of the reactions, while the Narrator is somehow well versed at Firearm's details.
It is a cool difference and I like it both.
Excatly I haven't found that much@@assaulthetz
You'll get the difference when you watch a lot of CDDA gameplay stories, the way they interact, they RP, they plan and how they express it. There's a lot of CDDA stories not just in the Video media but also in Texts of the players who survived the near impossible to the simplest thing as being a starter, that's how i get the difference of the story telling of the two creators @@billyhelbert6686
Giant spiders in most people's mind: Horrible monster that will eat you alive
Giant spider in CDDA: "If I stay in the corner and do not move... It won't see me. God humans are scary..."
big slug
Man, that was a good episode
SO Kirk is just like a puppy
Awesome ending 😂
I know I would be happy to see my “battlehammer” minis even in the zombie apocalypse……it takes a long time to paint them ok?
Ahhhh just told i have to work overtime alone, the timing couldnt be better 👐 do you stream by any chance?
I do weekly patron-only streams over on my Patreon, but I'm too busy with editing and stuff to do more than that.
Minot... Finale...? I hope that's not an indicator of bad things comin'... I'll have to check the video proper later, after I finish pt13
As a firearm enthusiast I am legally obligated to inform you that you used the wrong image for the Lee-Enfield and your comment section must now be filled with messages pointing this out for all eternity.
(the image you used is an SMLE Mk. III, but the game names the rifle as a No. 4 Mk. I)
:P
brb submitting a PR to change the in-game gun
Lol what an ending
Huzzah! Now we’ve an extra buddy! Twice the combat potential; but also twice the food and ammo consumption. With NPCs needing to be hand fed and even have their door privileges revoked; I don’t think gathering an army would be effective even if each additional body didn’t up our resource consumption.
Honestly when I've seen people do it, it's really useful. Also it allows you to build faction camps, you can farm easier using them & they actually do help with crafting & speeding things up, way more useful than one would think.
That is surprising! I guess when you have more than one around you care less about accidental deaths so the permissions don't matter quite as much.
Accidental deaths are also frankly a lot harder to happen when you got five dudes with machine guns or the like. You tear through stuff. Also they can teach you skills you don't have & a lot more cool stuff.
And if you die? You get a prompt to play as one of your companions!@@ZeRedSpy
Now the next mission.
Probably the Nightmare.
I don't think pistols would do the job.
Shotguns, yes, but i'd prefer to use an automatic rifle to shred that thing off.
Hopefully Mel's have this on her hand if she gonna recruit another with her.
Fox Body Pillow
As cliche as it is: I ship 'em
Well dang, saw that I missed a video after watching your 50k special, YT was so busy whining about ad blockers it didn't send me a notification.
HAve to finish watching in the morning, 2 am here.
Noticed "Will not bash" in traits. 🤔
The version I'm running has the new personality traits. Hopefully this indicates more JSONification of NPC behavior. There's a lot I want to do in that regard. Right now I just dump NPCs in the apartments I set up, though.
Yesterday I was struggling trying to get the NPCs to use some safe mutation-causing items I made. I still have no idea what the deal is with that. I can only add mutations through existing mutagens (with high trust) or the debug menu. I'm using the NPC_SAFE flag for the items, but that just eliminated the trust requirement. They seem to think the pills I'm giving them are a weapon. I've also tried using spells in the past but it made them hostile.
Do your pills have a use_action?
More NPC stuff has been put in, yeah.
@@mutantwormgirl yeah, it's a use_action type: effect_on_condition. effect is a u_add_trait which is a mutation. It works fine for me when I activate it. Gives me the mutation and everything.
I don't mean to use you like tech support 😂 I actually have a host of things I can't really figure out (yet) and many of them probably don't have a solution in JSON, like my character weight problem (since weight is scaled to strength, if I have a character with superman strength they can't ride motorcycles).
@@mutantwormgirl Problem solved! I changed "comestible_type" from "MED" to "FOOD" and now it works! Yay!
All those days of call of duty has toned his marksmanship
worm girl cool
how do you open diary to write it O.o
i would love to play this game :c tried it a littlebit but refunded becouse it seems optimized for english keyboard :c I know i can probably rebind everything but feels like a too big of a hassle, especially when i dont know what most stuff do xd
There is a project to allow for different default keyboard configs in different languages. It is still just in the planning stage though.
Hi! What soundpack are you using?
It's a combination of CC-Sounds (comes with the game) and @'s soundpack.
Eh kills the zombies and doesnt afraid of anything!
Probably would of had more success if you used the better lockpick
I try play this game in the smartphone but not have sound, this is very anoing.
Kind of stumbled onto this video browsing at random. Nice production quality overall though post commentary (or at least I assume it is) feels kind of disconnected from the action.Dunno, maybe I am just too spoiled by Rycon
I feel she keeps up with the action, I think her production quality & vibes are better than Rycon, even if I love him. Most people do live unedited commentary & I like the distinctiveness of having something more carefully considered.
big slug.
No, more Fear and Hunger videos exclusively from here on out. It’s what the world needs right now ☠️
I feel like I've said about all I need to on F&H for now. I'll put out another video when the update comes out, otherwise there are many other games to explore. I don't want to be one of those channels that just squeezes blood from the same stone for views every week.
@@mutantwormgirl I don’t think you’d be milking it if you made some videos on the characters who weren’t heavily emphasized in the previous Termina video you did.
