Let him cook
I punched a cultist in the face inStreets Of Rogue 2, just because.
He started running away - something I would not allow.
We ran across a beach, through public toilets, and into the surf.
In the end I had to knock them both out.
As they lay unconscious, I worried they might soon wake and tell someone what I had done.
This can’t happen, I hate accountability.
I punched their unawake bodies toward the sea in an effort to float the evidence away.
But after a few punches the first man exploded into chunks of flesh.
I am a murderer now.
I was supposed to be a chef.
You’re supposed to be climbing floor after floor in an effort to find and dethrone the city mayor.
The sequel is following suit, with aload of extra stuff thrown in.
Even something as simple as gathering chicken to craft a sandwich can take a comic turn for the worse.
At first, I figured I’d simply buy some chicken fillets in the shop.
But the only store in town was closed.
What does that matter?
I washed my face in the staff bathroom, again because I can.
This normally removes status effects.
But my status was merely chickenless.
I barely managed to fend them off.
I eyed the broken glass innocently.
Shopkeepers in Streets Of Rogue 2 carry shotguns, just like the cranky hawkers ofSpelunky 2.
There’s a lot missing, this being a demo.
But it does grant you a sneak peek at the possibilities.
I created a vanilla world during the world generation process.
But an encouraging amount of world modifiers are teased in the menu.
Probably handy in a bind.
But only after driving a car at questionable speeds and hitting many pedestrians along the way.
I was discovered by goons and office workers multiple times.
It was perhaps inadvisable to plant so many landmines in the hallways.
Including the mayor himself.
But at this point the tutorial bugged out and wouldn’t detect that I wore the headwear.
That’s fine, demos gonna demo.
It was nice just to kill the head honcho for once.
A satisfying result by itself.
Why are you looking at me like that?
But my “let this simmer” sense is tingling.
