Indie Spotlight: Nearly Departed
By: DanZ | October 14th, 2008
Here’s an interesting title to watch out for from a very talented artist by the name of John Green. In Nearly Departed, players will take control of a “reluctant zombie” trying to make his way in the big city.
Progress on the game seems to be moving along at a snail’s pace due to the author being tied up with other projects, but there’s a demo available right now over at the official site. It’s a bit short, but you can get a good idea what the final product will be like.
From what we’ve seen so far, the graphics look great, the puzzles are difficult, but logical and the inventory system is very intuitive. Take a look at the trailer below.

Highly noticable slowdown… Hope it’s okay in the end.

That looks pretty sweet. I’m having issues getting the demo, but the trailer looks great.

I would totally not be able to play this game if it wasn’t so cartoony.
