About This Game Walkerman is a Visual Novel about hunting supernatural creatures. Each creature obeys a unique set of rules which must be exploited in order to defeat them, in a fashion similar to the old folk tales about vampires and garlic, or werewolves and silver bullets. Each act of Walkerman centers on a creature and the process of investigating it. Players will study the monster in order to ascertain its weaknesses, gather the necessary items, and then confront it in battle. Combat takes place on an isometric, pseudo-board game in which the player selects actions from a list of options. These battle sequences have multiple solutions, depending on the player's collected items and their knowledge of the monster. Players also steer the protagonist through his personal life in a similar fashion: deciding who to trust, where to borrow money, etc which alters how the story progresses.Prologue: The Thing in the WealdJorgen, a nineteen year-old serf, has just embarked upon a peculiar career: monster hunting. As a walkerman, he will tour the streets and alleyways at night, battling supernatural creatures that emerge when the sun goes down. But before he can reach the city-state of Midgard, a chance encounter will send him spiraling headlong into a world beyond light and reason...Out NowAct 1: Welcome to MidgardJorgen's arrival in Midgard is marked by suspicious characters, perilous nights, and the all-pervading smell of a civilization in decay. Both ostracized and incensed by his countrymen, he raises his standard in the world's loneliest revolution...Out NowAct 2: Herdchaser-girlJorgen has survived his first contract, but now finds himself trapped between the circumstances of his family, religion, and trade. Hounded by their demands—and another more sinister offer—the young walkerman soon finds assistance in the most unlikely of allies...Out NowAct 3: TheoriesSurfeited by his surroundings and disillusioned with his trade, Jorgen seeks a new path forward for himself and Midgard. The city-state hosts a few theory-peddlers ready to provide just that, but their medicine might prove worse than the sickness...Coming at Some PointFeatures:Over a dozen beautiful illustrationsDozens of unique and fully illustrated charactersBranching story dependent on player agencyFive lengthy installments with instances of abstract, description-based puzzle solvingPseudo-Board Game aesthetic for battle sequencesAn extensive soundtrack featuring new tracks every episodeAn extras menu featuring a CG gallery and music roomBE WARNED: Walkerman may feature themes and imagery of a violent, disturbing, or sexual nature, and is unsuitable for small children. 7aa9394dea Title: WalkermanGenre: IndieDeveloper:ScalemaiLPublisher:Sekai ProjectRelease Date: 22 May, 2017 Walkerman Download Xbox the walker man. walkman windows 8. walker man city transfer. workerman php. walker manor. fast walker man. walkman sony. walkamin central caravan park. walker man film. alan walker man. walkerman walkthrough. walkerman kickstarter. walkamin qld. walkerswood jerk. walker man act 2. walkerman music. walkman speakers. walker man meaning. walkman spotify. walkerman caravan park qld. cassette recorder walkman. walkman usb dac. walkerman kickstarter. walkerman game. walkman sony mp3. walkman shoes. walkamin enterprises. walkamin queensland. walkerman steam. walkamin enterprises. walkman driver windows 10. walker man dead. walkman windows 7. walkman pictures. walkamin central caravan park I've played for 31 minutes, and haven't actually gotten a chance yet to do anything besides left-click to see the next line of dialogue. Which would be more tolerable if the story itself didn't read like a much blander version of The Witcher.. It's like playing chess but you need to find all your pieces before you start the game. If you didn't find enough of the pieces your dead.If you don't know how to use the piece your dead.If you forgot the sequence on how to activate the piece, it blows up in your face and you guessed it your dead.Also the main protagonist is a stoic masochist, interesting how I enjoy his interaction with the opposite sex.. A game I believe to have the potential to be as epic as Pillars of the Earth, or Witcher Visual Novel Edition, if given the chance. Absolutely worth the purchase.EDIT: I've high expectations for Act 2 to begin with, but it still exceeded my expectations with its high polish and astoundingly culture rich writing. There are a couple of bugs, but it was nothing gamebreaking. I would highly recommend any avid visual novel reader to try this out.. Overall I enjoyed this game, though if it isn't already obvious it heavily draws its inspiration from the popular Witcher series. Even coming a little close to plaigirism in a few parts but it more or less never goes past alternate universe fanfiction levels. As for the gameplay its your standard VN, except for when it comes to the "Battle" part of the game. Using a square tiled map complete with tokens and animations seems a little pointless since you don't actually have any control over where you move your character. Instead, a series of decisions pop up based on context and what clues, inventory or choices gathered prior to the hunt. Essentially it means you're still playing a VN, except now your choices are represented on a tiled map. The game they're going for here means I understand why you can't give the player actual control of a tile based combat system but it feels like they wanted to do something turn based and instead had no time, budget or couldn't make the system work so they just left it in there minus the gameplay.Not a huge fan of the chapter ending song, sorry. The rest of the soundtrack is great though! Sound in general is pretty good, everything is mixed right and edited nicely. At first the art didn't do anything for me but it started to grow on me. I don't love it but I'm fine with it, no complaints. Character designs are good for the most part, though obviously the ladies got more work put into them than the men. Unfortunately our first main story monster isn't particularly rememberable, which is a shame. The writing is okay. Mostly because Jorgen, our protaganist, can be a real ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. I don't like ignorance of this type from my MC. Because the story is first person, it sucks to be a character who is blatantly racist and intolerant of anything not "Raider". (his people) Doesn't matter if it makes sense in the setting, I still don't have to like it.The only other point of contention was with the dancer girl and the socio-political workings of the Walkerman-verse. It felt like a combination of a massive expositional info-dump (nobody likes those) and people who took one class in world politics and have declared themselves experts in the field. It also reminded me of a number of conversations Geralt of Rivia has had in both the games, books and comics.Now after all this, I enjoyed my time with Walkerman. I don't know if I'll start another playthrough until the second act comes out. I prefer to finish my VN's one route at a time. That said I very much enjoyed the parts where I went out to collect items or clues, do investigations, all in preparation of the final conflict with the "Weird". These moments are the game's strongest point. The fact that you can't just ask every question, collect every clue and item based on your decisions means what you have to work with at the final conflict can be very different from what you might have collected in other routes. This means that sometimes you have to choose carefully your questions or decisions because you might not be able to exhaust a dialogue tree like other games. Some characters just don't want to answer every question and there's only so many hours in the day. As long as they put most of their efforts towards this aspect of the game I'll keep supporting it.. Edit: After completing chapter 2 and absolutely loving it I can safely say that the majority of my issues were dealt with. The main character does indeed begin to lose some of the stick up his\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665 That and the little flashes of brilliance shine much brighter and more consistently. It is definitely worth slogging though his tirades in this if only so you can appreciate how far he comes later.Conflicted. I liked most things about the game, the story, the setting, and the characters -except- for the main character, he is insufferable. Honestly having to view the world through his eyes almost spoils the whole thing. He isn't a complete jackass but having to listen to his teenage angst ridden self righteous tirades about how the world is falling into "degeneracy" and how everyone is a degenerate but him was a bit much. The story could have focused so much more heavily on the interesting elements of what being a walkerman entails and having more encounters with the weird but instead it chooses to linger on its protagonist's reactionary political views. You could cut a solid 80% of the massive political diatribes and have a better game.I might still pick up chapter 2 If there's some kind of growth in the main protagonist or at least significantly less of his whinging because I think that there is a very strong setting and elements outside of the main character are handled well. There were many points were I wished this was a more traditional RPG where I could pick how my character felt about things. As it is I would liken the experience to going on an amazing fantasy monster hunt while being stuck with a teenage edge lord whining the whole way.. Interesting story with enough horror and intrigue to keep me clicking but this game only includes Act 1 at the moment which can be completed in a few hours. I'd suggest waiting for all 5 chapters to be released, if it ever does, before purchasing this game though. There are multiple branches that probably make this single chapter worthwhile but you probably won't be able to see the effects of your choices till the next chapters. While I'm anticapting the completion of the game, I fear it might not be finished judging by the gap between releases and how far it's strayed from its Kickstarter release schedule.. tl;dr - Feels a lot like Witcher: The Visual Novel. The world is a bit lighter shade of grey, but still quite morally ambiguous. Like The Witcher series, the primary conflict is really between people rather than with the monsters. It also has a very similar theme in terms of combat - a lot of investigation and legwork beforehand to set up for the actual encounter.The protagonist is pretty realistically part of the world, i.e. somewhat of a newbie ignorant racist that means well and tries to be moral within his society's definition of morality. If you enjoyed the culture clash digressions in The Witcher, you'd probably like it here. Also seems to have the same chick magnet thing going.It's pretty short as of now and somewhat limited in choices, but if it continues as is throughout the series, it could be pretty impressive. Note though that the prose does tend towards the purple side of the spectrum, which I find somewhat annoying.. Edit: After completing chapter 2 and absolutely loving it I can safely say that the majority of my issues were dealt with. The main character does indeed begin to lose some of the stick up his\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665 That and the little flashes of brilliance shine much brighter and more consistently.
