Hi, this is my first game that I’ve been working on for 3 months now, a platformer that is story driven, surreal, existentialistic, yet packed with action and humour:

Embark on a dream-like journey in Nothinglands, where you play a beer-loving scientist who studies these mysterious creatures, the Eyes. In this god-ridden world the Eyes are also hunted for food and for fun. The hunters, in their existential despair, are desperately waiting for the yearly hunting festival, but this year it seems that the Eyes are emerging in larger numbers than before.

This game combines classic platformer gameplay with more progressive AI, including commanding your companion and even summoning and telepathy control is included. Also, the hunter-people are managing their own gunfights and monster hunting. The hero likes beer and gives you health but it also comes with certain caveats. NOTE: The substance-abuse factor in the game will be addressed as the story progresses.

There is also a very work in progress arena mode, where the player can battle the hunters as well and try to kill as many Eyes as possible… and spoilers: for upcoming versions, in the story mode the hunters won’t tolerate the hero’s plan of eradicating all the Eyes once and for all. Hunting is their way of life after all.

There's roughly 15-25 minutes of story mode and much more in arena mode!
I'd be glad to hear what you think,

happy hunting

p.s. here's a gameplay video, in case you want to just chill and watch me playing :)
