G.R.U.N.T.S. OUT NOW!!

BUY G.R.U.N.T.S. - Episode 1 HERE!

English:
G.R.U.N.T.S. is an episodic first person adventure. Each episode follows a certain scheme. Parodies of classic videogame cliches aswell as playing with the perception of the unique graphical style open up a new depth of the game world.

The story is predictably simple: Some guy wakes up in a videogame. He does not really know how he got here, but since a big breasted woman (of course) and some guns (obviously) are at play, he decided to play along in defeating the evil alien virus (what else?) to get back home.

The main focus of the game is it to explore the world and the humor in this graphically fascinating new world. Of course there is a fair batch of action, still greeted with the strange humor of the game.

------------------------------
G.R.U.N.T.S. - Episode 1 KAUFEN!

Deutsch:
G.R.U.N.T.S. ist ein First Person Adventure im episodischen Format. Jede Episode folgt einem gewissen Schema. Es werden klassische Videospielklischees aufgearbeitet und durch den Kakao gezogen und es wird mit dem einzigartigen Grafikstil gespielt um neue, faszinierende Schichten der Spielwelt zu erschaffen.

Die Handlung ist denkbar einfach: Ein Mann wacht plötzlich in einem Videospiel auf. Er weiß zwar nicht genau, wie er hierher gekommen ist, aber da er hier von einer großbusigen attraktiven Frau (natürlich) nicht nur mit Informationen versorgt, sondern auch mit Waffen (selbstverständlich) ausgestattet wird, die ihm helfen sollen, gegen den bösen Alienvirus (was auch sonst?) zu bestehen, stimmt er dem Wahnsinn zu, um wieder nach Hause zu kommen.

Der Gedanke des Spiels ist es hauptsächlich, neben dem sehr eigenen Humor und dem simplen, aber wirkungsvollen Grafikstil, die Spielwelt zu erkunden und Rätsel zu lösen. Selbstverständlich kommt dabei die Action auch nicht zu kurz. Doch auch dabei schlägt sich wieder der schräge Humor durch.

no, there wont be a demo, since its an episodic game. and a demo would basically be half of the first episode which would nullify the point.
however, since the price is really low (3.99 dollars, euros even less) id say give it a go. if you dont like the first episode, you dont have to get the next one.

all in all, the full game will be less than 20 dollars (5*3.99) so we are wayyyyyyyyyyy cheaper than any other episodic game laugh

heya,
i just wanted to drop by to tell you a few things:

first: two new videos will go live next week. you should check them out laugh

second: i decided to do a demo version of this, mainly to enter the contest (if redeemer can get it done in time), so you can actually playtest it.

third: i'd like to talk about the story of the game a little. so i wanted to ask you guys if you have any questions regarding the story of the game?

fine, i'll bite.

Humor and parody in a game can be very, very difficult to get right, since humor depends so much on things like timing and gestures (also a reason why it often doesn't work over the internet). Of course, this doesn't apply if the humor you're going for is of a very low standard (e.g.: fart jokes). But the real, good humor, the kind that not only makes you laugh, but maybe even think, that will be difficult to do in a game.
So what kind of humor can we expect? Truth to be told, the small story-snippet (if you can even call it such) on the first post doesn't make me optimistic for cynical or intelligent statements on the issues the world is facing, but then, that doesn't have to be the case, and you cannot really summarize something like that in one sentence. Give us some examples on the kind of humor! Is it visual humor? Based on words and speech? Deeply nested in the players motivation and characteristics (rarely done)? [Related: What does "GRUNTS" stand for]

~ ~ ~

Since you're going for an episodic approach, how much story is there? How connected will the different episodes be? Is it the Telltale-style of episodic gaming? The Valve-style (including never ever EVER releasing the last episode)?


There 'ya go. Two questions, that should get your discussion started.


Perhaps this post will get me points for originality at least.

Check out Dungeon Deities! It's amazing and will make you happy, successful and almost certainly more attractive! It might be true!
