    So, I've played through the game a few more times to see the different outcomes.

    I'm gonna post the characters below this post with their status (alive, dead, ect) and how they died (for your viewing pleasure), so don't click the spoiler unless you've played and/or want to see what would have been.

    The Walking Dead: Text Based Adventure Game

    Characters

    Protaganist: Status: Alive.

    John: Status: Alive.

    Steve: Status: Determinate.
    Killed by: Walkers, Protaganist (Caused): When walkers started flooding into the gun store, both Laura and Steve were in need of assistance. If the Protaganist chose to help Laura, Steve would be slaughtered.

    Laura: Status: Determinate.
    Killed by: Walkers, Steve (Caused), Protaganist (Caused): *When walkers started flooding into the gun store, both Laura and Steve were in need of assistance. If the Protaganist chose Steve, Laura perished.

    • Alternatively, if the group were trapped in the allyway (and you chose the ladder as an escape route) Laura would get bitten trying to climb up. The Protaganist then has the hard decision of helping pull Laura up or telling Steve to let her go, the latter resulting in her death.

    (Will be updated when new episodes are released)
    Special Thanks to HarjKS for TWD: Text-Based Adventure Game

  • Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! :D

  • No problem :P

    I thought that with the multiple endings people might get confused about certain character's deaths. (I know I was when I learned Steve could die lol)

  • I also thought some time ago of doing a fanfic of mine, when I first joined some of them in this forum, but choices were limited because there wasn't a much branching story but just chapters with a choice in the end, and the story continued with that choice in a linear way (I enjoyed and still enjoy that, but I don't want that style for my fanfic). So I'm thinking of doing it on this website :) Still I'll have to think more on the story.

    Only one question: do you use the web version or the Window version? Because I read that the Window version has more features, so I'm thinking on using this one.

  • That's great to hear, I use the Windows version personally. It seems much more safer and just an overall better and more personal way for me to work on the episodes. I wish you the best of luck! :)

    Don't want to be mean, but I don't think that getting a teaser as a reward is a good I idea, I consider it as a bad thing, a punishment, I would love to know nothing about the next episode, just like in The Walking Dead game.

  • WOW AMAZING! I knew this is going to be big. You have deserves it. top textadventure i've ever seen.
    I am excited about your second part :).

  • Well the Walking Dead game has trailers at the end of their episodes, and this is a text-based adventure off of it so...Teasers are like an extra. I do get your point though, I would love for things to JUMP up at me and give me a scare. Something I would never had predicted maybe. Kind of like how Episode 5 of TWD Season 2 is going to go down... I hope.

  • You will be asked what happened the last time you tried to survive, and answer with what happened at the end of 'Episode One'.

  • Hey my old pal.Can you help me on my writing?I'm making a new one.

    Another thing the 'SurveyMonkey' response is meant for ways for my game to be improved. I do not appreciate you clearly trying to get in on the game, after I've declined twice. Do not abuse the 'SurveyMonkey' response survey again please.

  • Thanks! I appreciate it, and I'm glad you enjoyed it! :)

    News: Since I want to work really hard on this episode, making it at least an hour long and involving puzzles and different paths this episode will take several weeks in order to make. In fact much longer than the development of Episode One, especially to make all the sounds and such. I hope you guys can understand, and please be patient. Thank you all for supporting the project! :)

    As well as this I have set up a website, so you guys can receive regular updates, teasers and more. I will continue to support and update the thread here, however after The Walking Dead series I will work on other series. If I ever do make a 'Season 2' to The Walking Dead, I may make a thread here it honestly depends on how many people view the site. Once again thank you all for your support.

    WEBSITE

    The site will also be the host of "developer-diaries" and any news of the game will come there first. As well as all the episode names, and actual episodes already being on the website. Thanks again for everyones support on this project.

  • We'll have to see what the future holds in store, I'm not entirely sure about a Season Two for now.

  • I'm sorry if I'm bogging you guys down with teasers, but I find it the only way to hold you guys over until the actual episode is released which will be a while. Once again sorry, I'll try and not do as much. :)

  • Excuse me, but I really like how you put the effort into making this game. I would also like to know, what is the song name in your final teaser you have posted in here? The one with the audio? Please? I really like it and I must have it!

  • edited August 2014

    Thank you so much! I'm not sure what teaser you mean. If you mean the latest teaser It's from the trailer music for 'Amid The Ruins' by Telltale. I'm not entirely sure what song by Anadel it is, but it's rumoured to be called "It's our Take". You can find it here: HERE

    However if you mean the final teaser for 'A New World' which is also the credits music you can find the full song here: HERE

    What do you guys think about the music in the game, what do you guys prefer? Should I be using more basic music since it will take practically weeks for me to make all the music for the next episode? Or should I just simply use action-oriented music and different types of music from Telltale, which may not be as effective but ensures the episode will come out quicker than a few months?

    You guys decide: http://strawpoll.me/2349302

    What are you doing, few months for an episode? You're not modeling, texturing anything? It's just a text game, takes like 1 week to make??

  • edited August 2014

    I take a lot of pride in my work, and a few months is the maximum time I'd take to make an episode. I want to make this episode perfect, and Episode One took nearly a month to develop by itself. So imagine making an episode with (a soon to be even busier schedule than I was with during the making of 'A New World'), and having to use more music, do more writing, have more options as well as create a unique experience for everybody within the seven paths for the opening.

    I am not making 'A New World' where there's one main path, no there are seven and it is like creating seven different episodes. Sure there are moments which everyone will experience, however these are mainly with new characters. Nevertheless, I am trying my absolute best to get this episode out, under a busy schedule, especially at a time I feel the need to support friends near me and my future will be decided within a few days, and I am under constant pressure.

    I apologize for this, but I am seriously trying my best here and I am hoping to make the episode come out as quick as possible but in the best condition and to make it longer than the first.
