Hey gang,We wanted to give you all an update on where things currently are with Freakpocalypse: Episode 2 after a year of development.After years of languishing in development hell due to budget issues and laying off our developers, we’ve been back in the development saddle for a year now. Our current developer has been working tirelessly on the game to ensure it sees the light of day. Nearly all of the main quests for the game have now been implemented, and she’ll be switching gears to work on the side quests and bonus content soon after.We still need to complete animations, VO, ports, locali

Hey gang,It's been a while since we provided any updates on Freakpocalypse. That's all on us and we're sorry for the radio silence. In the spirit of full transparency, here's what's been going on:A few years ago, Freakpocalypse had run over budget and the project was still in the red. As a result, Explosm had to lay off our two developers while we got things sorted out financially, and backup all development files. We also sought out options with other game development companies to see what can be done to complete the game, which left the game in a nebulous space where we couldn't be specific

У веб-комикса Cyanide & Happiness за 16 лет его существования набралась большая армия поклонников, которая с удовольствием покупает разномастный мерчендайз и потребляет значительно уступающий по юмору мультсериал. Неудивительно, что авторы решили пойти дальше и создать успешную игру, но первый заход с королевской битвой Rapture Rejects оказался полным провалом. Вторая попытка с Kickstarter, явно вдохновленная South Park, уже борется на поле приключений в стиле Point ‘n Click, предлагая игрокам окунуться в суровую жизнь школьника по имени Coop.
