Ahoy there! 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 weve been working on for the second game.
Whats To Come in Freakpocalypse Episode 2?

• Longer Gameplay Overall Expect a much larger main quest with more fun to explore along the way
• Were in the apocalypse now, mothafuckas! Coop is no longer stuck in his humdrum teenage life, as hes 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 Weve been working on some fun ways to include boss fights into the storyline. Its 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 hes 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, well 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 cant tell you what they are... but theres a lot more of em!

Ahoy there! Freakpocalypse (Episode 1) is now LIVE on Steam for Mac & Linux!
Thanks again for all your patience and we hope you have a blast playing the game! If you have any problems with the Mac/Linux versions, send an email to freak@explosm.net and well help you out.
