Nowadays, people are always exhausted. Concerned about this social problem, I and our team made Exhausted manan absurd comedy that portrays a grueling life. In this game, you will laugh and feel at ease during the exhausting journey of an indie game developer.
As you can see in the video at the top of this post, releasing a game is not easy. I once read in a book that explained that every released game is a miracle. Behind that miracle are exhausted but persistent game developers like the one in the video.
But Exhausted Man doesn't want to talk seriously about the social problem of “exhaustion.” On the contrary, I want to make players laugh by using an absurd and playful approach to show how an exhausted person can survive the night that is crucial for him.
As the video shows, you'll play as an exhausted person, doing everything while lying down and completing quirky daily events during an exhausting night. The game's environment is built by you as you progress through the game, and the toy-like art style allows you to create a cozy home with ease.
In Exhausted manWe use a series of minigames to present certain life events in an imaginative way. The last part of the video shows one: the character must stack a hill with all kinds of items related to the development of the game and climb up to press that shiny launch button.
For us, actually, launching a game ends up being a boring button on the screen. But in our hearts, that button is sacred and we will never forget all those days and nights before we got to this point. Now, I have presented that feeling with Exhausted manand I invite you to experience it.
Exhausted man is available to pre-order today on the Xbox Store.
