Unusual Findings

It’s the 80’s. Christmas is coming up, and young Vinnie, Nick, and Tony have just received their new cable TV decoder. That evening, while tuning into an adult premium channel, they accidentally pick up a distress signal from an alien ship that crashed in the woods outside their town… Things get even stranger when they realize that the towering alien is killing certain townspeople!

Explore a world steeped in nostalgia, search for clues at the Video Blockbusters, challenge other kids at the Laser Llamas arcade, learn a new trick at the Emerald Sword comic book store, try to get along with a weirdo who’s looking for the Lost Boys in their hideout, or even dare to ask BULL, the quintessential 80’s action hero, for help!

Follow a story that pays homage to classic 80’s films like The Goonies, Explorers, The Monster Squad, The Lost Boys, They Live, The Terminator, Aliens and more. Follow the story through a combination of gameplay mechanics from point and click masterpieces like Full Throttle, with its own unique twist.

Your decisions matter, and the way you make the three friends interact affects their friendship and the story, changing the way they solve the game’s puzzles, the places they visit, the answers they find, the story, everything.

Uncover the truth behind the alien invasion… or something like that. Why here? Why kill the locals? How can these guys stop it? Will they finally be able to set up the desired adult channel? The answers to these questions and more are in… Unusual Findings.

• Follow a sci-fi coming-of-age story as three friends fight together against unknown… things (and maybe some known things, too).
• All you need to play the game are the Look, Take, and Talk actions, a backpack to hold your items, and your wits.
• The decisions you make affect the relationships between the characters, and thus the puzzles, the gameplay, and the story.
• Go back to a simpler time, where cassette compilations were treasured, the Commodore 64 was the coolest computer, kids could stay out late, and the only thing you had to worry about was a GIANT KILLER ALIEN TRYING TO GET YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS.
• The most radical music you can play on a synthesizer. Cool, catchy synthwave melodies were written specifically for the game to enhance the 80s atmosphere.
• Stylish pixel art. All the charm of pixels from the past with more colors and modern effects. Some pixels look so realistic that they seem like they are about to jump out of the screen*.

*In real life, pixels cannot jump out of the screen. If you see pixels jumping out of your screen, please see an eye doctor… and/or seek psychological help.
