Blank Plays: Lone Survivor (It's a weird one)
« on: April 29, 2012, 08:23:51 pm »

That’s right I am back, this time with a strange indie survival horror game, which even though it's 2D people keep saying it’s like Silent hill. Rather it's just a bit weird, with characters like man who wears a box on his head, and your lovable plush kitty sleepy cat. Combine that with freaky enemies, stealth, drugs, hunger, sleep and inventory management you have a brilliant little game.

So, check it out over here and don't be afraid to tell me what ya think: http://youtu.be/IL9O6MUQxs0

Thank ye kindly! ~Blank

Thanks for letting him know nenjin, either way it's not massively expensive (relative I know), and you have replay value, as there are multiple endings. Still I feel the game is worth if it even if had one path that was 2 hours long.

Good experiences aren't meant to last forever, I'd much rather enjoy a short good game, than become bored with good mechanics in a long game. Any way I'm rambling now.

Still I just got the third episode up, I experience some combat, so you can see that in there as well. After that I think you'd have at least seen all the basic and could make your mind up if it was worth it.

It is a bit of a weird one, if it wasn't so well written it'd suck. The basic mechanics are so simple; it's just that the setting and development make it work so well. Still it's always nice to know someone else has shown an intrest in the game and my work.

Hey, I've recently been checking this out. It looks REALLY good; I'm especially a big fan of the whole psychological-twist nature of the game itself (and by extension its endings). I watched a couple of LP games and even though I think I know a lot of it in advance now (d'oh!) I think I'm still going to buy it just for the sake of giving it a play, because it looks really beautifully done.

I'm currently about 4 hours in (which I believe is close to the end) and the game is still coming up with ways to confuse/weird me out. It is really well done, I have played and watched a lot of horror in my time, but this is really good. Still I think you should get it, since (bad coming from me since I'm LP'ing it) I feel it's something you should feel for yourself; it's one of those games.

Plus latest episode here: http://youtu.be/o7NyqNiLjtI

I mean I have to plug myself =P
