Randy Learns History

[Dungeonation]

Randy Learns History
...is the sequel to my surreal, short riff on edutainment games, Randy Learns Science.
You can play the first game here, it's a Flash game running in the Ruffle emulator, and works on PC and Mobile browsers!



The Story So Far
It's a big day for the citizens of Randytown! Mayor Roy is overseeing the grand opening of the Randytown Museum of Strictly American History. And he's asked YOU - Randy the Mouse (rat?) - to christen the new museum with him! But tragedy strikes when all of the historical artifacts are stolen, and displaced throughout several time periods. Luckily for Randy, there's a secondary time machine lying around a la Meet the Robinsons! Can you save the day? Nay, can you save TIME ITSELF, and subsequently ALL the days?!



Game Overview
Randy Learns History is an adventure game in the visual and gameplay style of Humongous Entertainment adventure games. No verbs, only walking around, interaction with objects and people, and an inventory window and system. It also features solely autosaving, a few planned "Ways to Die" without sacrificing player progress or placing the player in an unwinnable state, and is planned to be fully voice acted with subtitles. An exact average playtime is unknown at this time, but the game will be much longer than the original Randy Learns Science.
Despite being a departure from the first game's "activity center" gameplay, History will contain those types of interactive elements interspersed throughout the game's puzzles. The game's plot is self-aware of its campy nature and existence solely to move the adventure along, with some surrealism and not-entirely-kid-friendly elements sprinkled in, much like the first game.
The game is planned to release for web browsers and as a download for computers, upon completion.

Original Soundtrack
Here's just some of the game's music that has been teased.

Hope you all like what you see so far, and more is to come as development progresses!
It's a bit too early in development to set a release window, but I'm hoping to not take forever on this, and to be able to set one sooner than later!
