Outdoor by Warboys

UPDATE: The gamebreaking bug is fixed! The game should no longer crash between Day 26-29

Outdoor is a game where you prepare for the apocalypse, which is just outside your door.
You play as Abbie, a 17 year old girl, who is locked in her family's bunker for 30 days following a mysterious disaster that wipes out most of humanity. You are with your brother, Ethan.
Each day is a turn. You must choose whether to Study, Train, or Play... and which skills you'd like to improve.
When 30 days are over, you step outside and see if you can survive in this brave new world.
-BUGS--
There is no sound! GameMaker Studio had a fatal bug that didn't allow me to add any audio. Sorry for the silence.

Thank you for the comments and ratings :)
1st time I couldn't figure out the Brother's happiness was kind of a meta-energy tool for everything else and learned nothing. Got shot by scavengers.
2nd time I trained for a lot of speed and random skills - used first aid. Dodged the first bullet then got shot by scavengers.
3rd time around, there were a lot of radio blasts about bugs. I went for a balanced approach, + went with a bit of flora and fauna (but wasn't sure how much to increase?) and got eggs laid in me by a bug swarm. D: D: D: I got found out by smell even though my speed was pretty high.
I might try a playthrough or two later. Trying to figure out correlations between stats and how high I need to get them - the grisly deaths are a surprisingly effective challenge to lure me back.

A little bit dramatic. :(
Overall I liked the game, but it lacks a bit of features ;)
