Egress is a short form sci-fi adventure game set in the outer reaches of space.

The story begins when you, the commander of a two man recon team, are sent hurtling into space during maintenance on an interplanetary probe. After a sudden attack from an black alien substance, you awake on a mysterious planet.

Where are you? How did you get there? And why is your partner screaming for help down the intercom…

Features include:
- Cinematic hand drawn, frame-by-frame 2D animation, including short intro and ending sequences
- Multiple endings designed to reflect the actions of the player

Progress:
- graphics 100%
- puzzles 95%
- scripting 80%
- music/sound 90%

As you can see, the game is basically done. I'll probably end up being wrong for one reason or another, but it should only be a few more days in development, a week at most. I wasn't going to post this at first and rather jump straight to the finished section, but I'd love to get some testers to try it out before I send it into the big scary world. Please PM me if you're interested, and I'll be sure to get a link to you as soon as possible!

Also just quickly for those of you who happen to know that I was putting most of my focus on another game, there's been a bit of a hold on it for the time being so getting this done was a nice distraction! But that other game is most definately still being made!

This does look very cool, I'm a sucker for space themed games and this looks like it hits the spot. Black alien substance, screaming through the intercom...I'm hooked already

Alright guys, sorry for the slow update. It's basically done, just working on feedback from testers before releasing. Alas, moving house and starting a new job always puts spanners in the works, so surprise suprise there's a bit of a delay. I knew I would regret saying it would DEFINATELY be out in one week  :-\

Thanks for the love and support though peoples! I really appreciate it!
