Now put yourself in their shoes, we are going to be a zombie trying to survive humans in the 80s.
Surviving the Humans is a 2D point-and-click adventure-style video game. Face the humans, who will seek to eliminate you in any way, while you learn what it is to be a zombie, their customs, and the good and bad of being dead.
It is mainly based on the story of Cooper, a zombie who rises from his grave in the 80s in a cemetery without knowing anything about his past. We accompany him and help him throughout an epic story where he learns what it means to be a zombie, what is the new way they see him and how humans prejudge him. He tries at all times to survive the intolerance of the people. We saw that a story like this was never told, that zombies always have to be bad, murderous and monstrous. We always like to see things from another perspective, and this game seeks that same thing.
Main Features:
You have to collect items, use them in the correct places to solve the puzzles and help Cooper in this new adventure.
Hundreds of interactive objects and a few easter eggs with funny descriptions.
What a wicked cool soundtrack! It is certainly fitting for the 80s theme of your game! I loved the homage to 1982 with the Vincent Price-esque voiceover! I also found the zombie hand pointer very creative!
Is the environment for Surviving The Humans set in the early, mid, or late 80s? Is the story set in America? Are the easter eggs in the game pop culture references from the 80s?
I saw in the demo trailer where Cooper was in front of a meat shop. If Cooper eats animal brains to refrain to eating human brains, does he ever crave human brains and has to fight off the urge?
Is finding out who he was before he emerged from the grave the only reason Cooper has decided to integrate into society, or does he simply want to become a part of society as an example to prove that not all zombies are brain-eating, brain-dead monsters?
Good morning, thank you for your kind words. The story is set in the mid 80s in a small town in the USA. We have many easter eggs, both movies from the 80s, as well as other elements.
Cooper must fight against hunger and must get used to being a zombie, it is not easy for him. I can’t comment on that, but I can only say that he has to be careful because when he tries a human brain it will be very difficult for him to control himself.
It is the situation that was presented to him, he has now changed, his body has changed, now that he is “alive” he wants to stay that way and reveal his past.
