About the game
Christmas is coming. Vinny, Nick and Tony are trying to decrypt a pay per view adult channel with their brand new cable signal descrambler, but unexpectedly they pick up the distress signal of an alien spaceship crash-landing in the woods near their town. Things only get weirder as they realise that the towering alien is killing specific members of their community!
Immerse yourself into a world that pays homage to 80s classics such as Monster Squad, Terminator and Aliens amongst many others, as well as gameplay that combines the mechanics of a classic point and click adventure such as Full throttle, but with its own unique twist.
Lead the boys on an adventure as you scour the town for clues. Perhaps there is something sinister going on at the New Frontier Corp, an energy company that looks harmless at first sight? With Christmas around the corner, do you have what it takes to get to the bottom of this mystery before it threatens the entire world?
Key Features
- Follow the Sci-fi coming-of-age story of three friends fighting together against the unknown… things (maybe against some known things too…)
- Utilise “see”, “grab” and “talk” action tokens, take advantage of an inventory to use and combine items in and your wits are all you need to play the game.
- Stylized pixel art. All the charm of pixel art of the past with more colours, combined with the new visual effects of the future. Some pixels look so real they can almost jump out of the screen
- Go back to a simpler time where mixtapes were a thing, the Commodore 64 was king, and kids could go play outside at night and the only main thing of concern was the giant KILLER ALIEN trying to get you and your friends.
- The decisions you make affect relationships between each of the characters and thus by extension the puzzles, game progression and story. Choose wisely.
- The most radical music a synthesiser can play. Cool and thematic synthwave music arranged into catchy tunes that are made exclusively for the game to power up the 80s vibes for full immersion.
