[Released] Zombie Train Beyond Earth: Episode 2

Recommended Posts

Play the game, it's on itch.io.

OK, done? Or just confused?

spoilers:

 

I based the game off of the last few minutes of the episode Scoops Horn, in which Chris and Jake describe their plan to make an adventure game that trapped the player in an apartment and had unsolvable puzzles. I don't know if they ended up making the game, but this is my take on it.
I didn't have a good title for it, so I decided to pretend this is the sequel to my last wizard jam game, Zombie Train Beyond Earth. The story doesn't really have anything to do with the other game, mostly.
There is an ending, but it's on a timer.
There isn't really anything that can be completed or solved. Some objects can be used to others to get other objects. There is a really complicated way to get a boiling bowl of water.

 

 

 

If you encounter any bugs or spelling errors etc., let me know.

Also, I started this game before the jam started, because I have my other idea I want to do in the remaining time.

Done! Very cool execution of concept with great art!

I just touched some things, got some objects, turned the TV on but didn't think to look at it. I got my jacket and shoes, got the key, and went outside. It was very enjoyable but I feel like I missed the meat of the experience by automatically trying to progress.

Good stuff! Packed full of interactables and little red herrings, plus some Dot Gobbler goodness, and I enjoyed the 'ending'.

 

I managed to boil the water and wash the cup amongst other things, but I didn't work out how to go outside. It seemed like I found two keys but only one showed up in my inventory and didn't work - not sure if that's bug.

Thanks for playing!

The key thing isn't a bug, I was just lazy and didn't want to make two key objects. And I think it's kinda funny and adds to the confusion. And you can't go outside. It doesn't exist. Rilen didn't go outside he just thought he did. 😛
