Except for different character and enemy sprites, this is exactly the same as: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3994030/Fraud_Camp_Survival_Escape/ This game is a simple extraction-type shooter in which you head out into a map to scavenge for various items and supplies. You start with a few guns and some ammo, so the dogs and guards hiding in buildings don’t pose much of a threat. The bad news is that they take quite a lot of bullets to bring down.
