Inspired by the movies Groundhog Day and Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2. The game takes place in a regular suburban town, powered by a nuclear plant, but the main character gets stuck in a temporal loop, after an accident in the nuclear power plant. If you die, you just wake up in your bed and the day starts again. When you wake up you still know the information from the previous day and this influences the dialogue choices between you and the citizens. Be a ruthless killer or help an old grandma cross the road. Nothing matters when you're stuck in the same day for eternity... But maybe there's a way out.

Heh, good inspirations. Now all I can hear is that dude yelling garbage day.

Looks really good, hopefully the choices are actually as influential as the dev says.

Any game that let's me mindlessly kill or just walk around at my leisure is an instabuy.

 

[Alfredo]

I eagerly await Vinny's Quick Look on Giant Bomb.

 

[ElTopo]

Good idea for a game. I wonder if they'll include a Santa outfit.

 

[Auctopus]

That was a pretty funny trailer then I became genuinely interested at the end.

 

[Ferrio]

Huh? No!

 

[Grinchy]

This looks awesome. I will be a murderous piece of shit 95% of the time.

 

[D4Danger]

I really like the idea of a Groundhog Day style loop in a game. Giant bomb had a game on recently called Twelve Minutes that uses the same idea.

 

[Bloodrage]

This looks like a response someone had to not being able to complete every puzzle in The Witness.

 

[Mesoian]

Perfect.

 

[Toxi]

This game sounds like a fun idea. Reminds me of Majora's Mask.

 

[Dennis]

I feel like we had this thread already.

 

[Creaking]

From the looks of those sleeves, they've even got the intimidating blue knit sweater in the game.

Jesus Christ, gross!

Don't you dare do it, OP.

Looks awesome.

[The English Conquistador]

Perfect.

Pretty much lol!

Reminds me of this eyebrow montage. Greatest acting of all time.

It said ultra-violent in the thread title...

 

[Toxi]

I agree, that exploding house is way too gruesome.

 

[JimboJones]

Kinda reminds me on the Dire Straits money for nothing video.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

The team I was working with one year ago had exactly the same idea, with a different theme than silent night deadly night of course, like 3 years ago (and im sure they still wanted to do it in the future). Im somewhat glad somebody made it first becuase of reasons I cant talk about.

Sounds fun, will try it without a doubt. I hope it doesnt control like those surgeon/goat simulator games, though some of the animations tell me thats sadly how it controls.

 

[IbizaPocholo]

Yes!Looks awesome!

 

[wanderingprostheyltite]

This will be bought rather quickly when it becomes available.

 

[quesalupa]

Awesome concept. I'll try it Aout.

[xxracerxx]

Amazing.

 

[Muppet of a Man]

Pretty much lol!

Holy shit! That is fucking hilarious.

 

[Crayolan]

Came into the thread for this, gaf does not dissapoint.

 

[ref]

Yep, first thing I thought of when I saw the title.

 

[BBboy20]

Somebody made a game out of that scene. It must be played.

 

[Easy_D]

Excellent.

 

[KatamariOnTheRocks]

Looks pretty cool, the indiedb page said its Unreal Engine 4 so that should scale well and look great. I really like the art style, I'll deff get this when it comes out.

 

[ElTorro]

This looks great.

 

[weepy]

I swear I've had this very same idea for a game, except it was third person.

 

[Dazza]

I dunno, having ground hog day in videogames. Isn't that like most of them, the only thing I can see by that is the objectives won't be clear

I think the game Twelve Minutes does the whole Groundhog-Day time-loop concept in a much more interesting way.

I really like the idea of a Groundhog Day style loop in a game. Giant bomb had a game on recently called Twelve Minutes that uses the same idea.

 

[Mahonay]

This seems wonderful.

 

[Hoje0308]

He's taking suggestions from the YouTube comments section and one of them is surprisingly funny.

[Maximo]

Incoming Pewdiepie/Markiplier/Every Let's Player on the Planets Youtube channel to be filled with this game when its available. If hes smart he would give some a Beta Key.

 

[matrixman92]

trailer made me lol. Definitely interested, hope the plot is actually interesting

 

[Quadraphonic]

This seems like a thing I'd get bored of within 5-minutes. And I love Goat Simulator.

 

[Deleted member 80556]

That does look very, very awesome. Hope there's some story there too, aside from all the fun one can have.
