nelson did make the game without UnitZ. Unturned came first at 2014 and UnitZ was released 2015. So the devs who created UnitZ just recreated unturned as a "Survival Dev Kit". Nelson did indeed create this game from ground up

that's because he didn't "make" this game from the ground up like you all are praising him to have done you twats.

It's called a prefab. A ready out of the box game. Codes done. Arts done. animations done. Everything. Is. Done. You mess with some sliders, change some vaules, then bake it and play. This kid probably spent a month adjusting settings, another month of testing, then released, and is slowing adjusting more sliders and settings as time goes on.
Did he learn things on the way? I'm absolutely sure he did. I have learned a lot messing with the Unity engine for almost 5 years now. ANYONE CAN MAKE A GAME FROM A PREFAB.
I'm not hating on the kid one bit. He managed to make probably 10-20 grand off his 5 dollar gold upgrade. I'm hating on the fact you plebs don't know sh!t about the gaming industry and how easy it is to get your hands on source content like this to make "your own game" in 30 days or less.

He is 19 years old now.

I apologize if i offended you

Your review is offensive. Simply because you used the term "for his age". That is ageism and I will not accept it on steam

Hey nelson I DO know that you are reading through a LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT AND LOT of reviews, but I am COMPLETELY willing to help, I know that's a lot of reviews, and I'll be completely honeest and everything about all of them, trust me.

he never said his mom's basement, he said his OWN basement.

with 163 hours of playing i have not ever gotten bored

Okay. A 16 year old made it. Does that make the game any better?
Seriously, it's just like any other zombie survival.
