We're a small team of 4 developers working on something we believe matters: preserving online games that have been shut down.
+ +What is Project Afterlife?
+When an online game's servers go dark, everything disappears — the worlds, the communities, the stories. Project Afterlife aims to change that in two ways:
+-
+
- Private server restoration — We reverse-engineer and rebuild game servers so people can play these titles again. +
- Interactive documentaries — For each restored game, we create a chapter-based documentary on our website featuring the game's history, its rise and fall, gameplay breakdowns, and community stories — all narrated by human voice actors in audiobook format. +
Our first two games:
+ +Both will get fully restored private servers and their own interactive documentaries — narrated chapters covering their creation, golden era, decline, shutdown, and resurrection.
+ +Funding model
+This is a 100% donation-funded initiative. No ads, no paywalls, no premium tiers. Patreon for recurring support, Ko-fi for one-time contributions. Full transparency on fund allocation.
+ +Current status
+We're in active development. The web platform is being built on our own self-hosted infrastructure. We're working on the server restoration and documentary content for both FusionFall and Drift City simultaneously.
+If you played either of these games — or if you've ever lost an online game you loved — we'd appreciate your feedback and support.
+More updates coming soon.
