About This Project:
This game was made in 7 days as an experiment. Please bear that in mind.
Random individuals were packed into a train, forced to create a game, while the train was sent hurtling into what would become a spectacular Trainwreck.
Here are the survivors:
eerieXanthic - Escaping from federal prison, he once again organized another Trainwreck, and gathered a new crew who are willing to follow him to death for his brand new game idea. However, due to his inability to read, he has written codes that caused environmental disasters in multiple countries. He was swiftly arrested in "Denmark", a fictional country made up by the rest of the world to fool the Scandinavians.
CyberDwellerDog - After making billions of dollars in the previous Trainwreck, he once again participated this Trainwreck event. As the main artist of the group, he was beaten and tortured everyday until he produced the art that eerieXanthic wanted. His family is now safe.
Spookto - He is an artist, but also one of the most powerful coder in the group. He tamed Godot with his bare hands. He laid a strong foundation for the project, and is the sole reason why the code of the project is somewhat readable. After this project, he went on to fight God himself and probably won.
neropatti - He stated specifically that if his username is capitalized, billions will die. He is the other powerful coder. During the project, he was busy with his work, but his insight played an important role. However, while he was wise, he also kept rambling about silly concepts such as "scope", and "time".
Daklen- We needed a soundtrack, so we went to the nearby settlement and kidnap the first person we saw. He then was locked in a room without windows, forced to make music for this project. We also stole all of his ideas he had in his pocket, and left him with nothing. The experience has shaken him to his core, and he has night terrors every time he sleeps.
We will forever remember:
Titnian - Before the train even departed, he was forcibly taken away from us by 3 muscular masked man. His fate is unknown.
Special thanks for Eren Jeager himself for funding this experiment and gathering the prisoners.

Very interesting gameplay! It would be very interesting to see this game be turned into a fully fleshed out rougue-like of some sort
Most people immediately made the connection that this game was designed with either rogue mechanics or multiplayer mode in mind, some even realized we could have NPCs for controlling the guns.
There are a lot of things I have imagined when designing the game, and while the design is somewhat future-proof for those feature, the code is not. Nothing is off the table yet, but I do want to go back to working on my main project.
Yeah i was thinking about the NPC as well. That would be neat. What's your main project btw :)
Too early to say anything concrete, but the combat will be similar to my first game: https://eeriexanthic.itch.io/dice-navis
ah yes the ultimate drip
10/10, would kidnap you again.
