I made a short comedy game in two weeks for the $107 Adventure Game Challenge.

You are a member of the Young Alien Rangers who has been sent to earth to obtain the sum of human knowledge. Aided by your budget AI (Karl) you set out on your task which involves capsule toys, ladders, and hotdogs.

The Distant Door

You are a night shift worker who has just moved into a new apartment building. While getting ready for work, you hear your neighbor having a terrible coughing fit.

It's fairly short, might take you 10 minutes at most.

2-click interface.

Got to work with some great voice actors for this one. Follow them on the site formerly know as twitter:

After taking part in Adventure Jam 2023, I've decided to expand and begin work to produce a full release of my game "Office of the Returned"



Story:

You died over 100 years ago - and for some reason, you and others are back... and you're not the last.

Considered 2nd class citizens, life isn't easy to the newly "returned" and many challenges lay ahead.

As one of the first that has come back, you are luckier than most, you've been given a position in "The Office of the Returned" to guide the newly returned to life.




Development Progress:

Story: 65%
Scripting: 40%
Graphics: 40%
Sound/Music: 30%

Expected completion date: End of 2023

You can play the jam version here:

The jam game is more of a proof of concept and I lost a bunch of development time during the jam due to local forest fires so do not expect a polished experience.  Once the polished version is done I will create a release thread.
