This one had some interesting choices, but I wish that it would display sentences showing the RESULTS of those choices. Often I would do things like exchange advice with survivors, and the game would inform me that I took medicine to ease the pain. Why did I need medicine? Did I get knifed for giving bad advice or something? This made it hard to care about the supplies or the results, when things appeared to happen arbitrarily.\r\rThe interface was nice and clean, I enjoyed the colors, music and sound.\r\rBugs(?):\r-At one or two points, I was able to give away Ammo that I didn't have, and my ammo dropped to -2, then quickly righted itself to 0."},{"author_name":"BlackBulletIV","author_uid":"3915","time":"Dec 17, 2012 @ 9:41am","epoch":1355736960,"text":"I can't seem to run it.

I'd really like to see the results of my actions in a dialogue rather than just some numbers changing; it's just a psychological thing ;) \rFor those having problems running it, this is an HTML5 game and due to browser security sometimes you can't have the same access to things when running something on your computer rather than the internet.

I like that the things you have are nowhere explained, but become quite apparent over the travel. The choices are also interesting.\r\rI would've liked to get more feedback on what happened when I took an action! I scavenge for two hours and I'm informed that I took a medicine to ease my pain. What pain? And what did I find? I have to figure these out by comparing my stats to how I remember them.\r\rThe game gets a little repetetive after a while.\r\rI'm not sure if it fits theme to well, even though you have morally questionable options - it's not at the core of the game, and you are only fighting for survival. Still I can see what you were thinking there.\r\rAll in all: A well-made game, all the more in 48 hours. And bonus points for the title, I like it!"},{"author_name":"Dining Philosopher","author_uid":"18490","time":"Jan 1, 2013 @ 5:03pm","epoch":1357059480,"text":"I enjoyed playing this one :-)\rIs there actually no ending or is that a bug? It just says "You travel onward..." with 0 miles to go, which is a shame.\rAlso, it would be much nicer to have some story throughout the journey.

I give the player a number of choices for each possible encounter, along with a way of leveling up and trading items. There are helpful survivors as well as evil bandits that demand items in exchange for your life.\r\n\r\nI've tried to make this as entertaining as possible, while also staying true to the original idea. This is inspired by The Walking Dead, Project Zomboid and The Road. Enjoy!\r\n\r\nNote: This game was created using Construct 2 and is best played in an updated browser such as Google Chrome.<\/p>","title":"The Unforgiven Wanderers"}
