Since the first game in our Freakpocalypse trilogy released just over a year ago, we thought now would be a good time to update you on the next game. We know many of you have been waiting to hear what the status on Freakpocalypse Episode 2 is, so we thought you all might enjoy some details and a sneak peek at what we’ve been working on for the second game.
What’s To Come in Freakpocalypse Episode 2?
- Longer Gameplay Overall – Expect a much larger main quest with more fun to explore along the way
- We’re in the apocalypse now, mothafuckas! – Coop is no longer stuck in his humdrum teenage life, as he’s now thrust into a post-apocalyptic world, fighting for his survival amidst total chaos
- Much more puzzle diversity – New puzzles and mechanics that span from mini-games to boss fights and more
- Speaking of New Mechanics – Powers, mini-games, companions, environment effects, and even Grandma will help you survive the ever-changing, dangerous Netherton landscape
- Boss Fights – We’ve been working on some fun ways to include boss fights into the storyline. It’s still a point-and-click adventure game, but now with some exciting new twists
- Multiple Solutions – Have fun trying out different ways to solve puzzles and potentially discover secrets, easter eggs, and other interesting results along the way!
- More legacy characters – How will Ted Bear survive the apocalypse? Is The Purple Shirted Eye Stabber still alive? How will Fart In A Jar Martin manage to stay alive in this hellscape? Tons of characters you know from Cyanide & Happiness have arrived to help make long lasting memories and unbridled chaos
- Company For Coop – Coop isn't alone as he interacts with the world, flirts with objects, and more (while still being an unpopular weirdo) - this time he has new companions who are along for the ride
- More Ways to Die – We had only a few ways for Coop to die in the first game, but things have taken a far deadlier turn now that he’s in the post-apocalypse. Expect more blood, gore, corpses, and general horror for poor ol’ Coop to deal with. School is out, death is in!
- Merchants – An in-game shop and economy (NOT micro-transactions or NFTs), for more in-universe fun and bonuses
- Callbacks to the first game – You'll learn all about not just what has happened to Coop, but other characters and how they're dealing with post-apocalyptic life
- Beyond Quests - More to do outside of active quests, replayable mini-games to top your best score, deeper character interactions, and reactive environments
- More Music – Having so many new locations to explore in the post-apocalypse, we’ll naturally have a wider variety of music to reflect the mood
- Pick Up From Where You Left Off - We plan on Items and Costumes from the first game to be carried over to Freakpocalypse 2
- Secrets - We can’t tell you what they are... but there’s a lot more of ‘em!
While we can’t announce a set release date for Freakpocalypse Episode 2 just yet, you can see we’ve
been quite busy with it. We’re working nonstop on it, but we’re not going to rush the release
when we have so much fun stuff planned for this next game. We’ll be sure to keep you posted
whenever we have more updates regarding the release date, second game title, and more later
on down the road.
Thanks again for your patience and support!
