Dialogue Localization Progress!!

In the works thanks to an awesome community! Thank you everyone for your hard work and patience!

Please Report Any Bugs

I'm very interested in squashing any bugs and glitches. So if you see something that isn't right, call it out! If you have a recommendation, let me know in the forums! I appreciate any and all feedback.

What's being worked on:

-Adding a Map. I haven't forgot about you, it's still on my list! :) -Revised Intro/tutorial: I plan on reworking the beginning of Day 1 and/or the tutorial to better explain the mechanics of Outpost 13, so that I can do away with the "info screen." -Investigating a bug causing the end game scene of Act 1 to not trigger. This should be resolved after the Nov, 2 (2.3.8) Patch. Will investigate further non the less. -Adding missing crew members during downtime and after-hours. -Improved localization. -And more. ~Max

Act 2 for Outpost 13 will be released as a free update in late 2016!

Outpost 13 Details:

Outpost 13 is an homage to some of my favorite 70's, 80's and 90's science fiction and horror films/media such as Alien, X-Files, Evil Dead and The Thing (to name a few).* It is a point-and-click action-adventure game that takes place at an outpost on the planet Achelous IV. You, the player, plays as a dog named "Fen" who comes into contact with an alien biological agent that bonds the dog/player with an alien life form who calls himself "Tantalus." The player's objective is to leave Achelous and make it to the nearest spaceport by inducing enough fear into the stationed crew members that they abandon their 5 year long mission on Achelous and leave early. At least that's the plan, there may be higher powers at play.

You're the Monster: Player's will take on the role of an alien monster strategically killing off crew members while maintaining their cover as "Fen" the crew's pet dog.

Stealth, Strategy, and a Fiery Death: Player's will need to form a strategy to separate and alienate crew members by creating distractions, utilizing the ventilation system, and temporarily knocking out the outpost's power. If player's are unable to maintain their cover and stealth, or is discovered as the monster, the crew will respond with flamethrower's and you will be destroyed by fire.

Alien Planet Setting: Outpost 13 takes place on Achelous IV, a life viable planet several times larger than earth. Winters and summers last several years each, and it is currently 13 earth months into winter on Achelous.

The character progression system has been scrapped for the current Act 1 build, however it may return at a later date. If Act 1 goes well and everything works out, I'll potentially be making an announcement about a new game mode that will likely feature it. :)
