Death Tractor: The Truth Behind GMO Corn Harvesting

The Nomsanto family are your average, run of the mill GMO farmers, with one tiny problem: their tractors.

The Nomsanto family are your average, run of the mill GMO farmers, with one tiny problem: their tractors. Fed up with their owners for modifying the corn crops, the tractors transform themselves into horrendous, murderous death machines, set on wiping out the Nomsantos and returning the crops to their natural state. This is the tale of Death Tractor , Exato Game Studios’ self-described “100% accurate to life corn harvesting simulation experience”.

The game began as a practice in-house jam, in the hopes of featuring on IGN’s Next Game Boss. While the original game took eight hours to construct in Unity, the latest version (developed with Unreal Ungine 4) boasts improved graphics, online multiplayer, multiple tractor types, and better quality AI.

Players will assume control of the Nomsanto family, who have been consumed by capitalist greed and are determined to let nothing get in the way of harvesting as much profit as possible. Cut, slash, and run through the fields before the tractors hunt you down and put an end to your profit-seeking ways. Death Tractor promises accurate corn harvesting as well as real-time growth patterns. Interested players can cast their votes for the game on Steam, where, if it is successfully greenlit, a 4-player online multiplayer feature will become accessible.

Death Tractor is scheduled for release on PC with an expected release price of $5.00 USD. For a taste of its corny gameplay, make sure to test out the demo from the official website. You can stay up to date with the latest Death Tractor developments through Twitterand Facebook.
