Quite cool! makes me curious what you few will make in the future. I support you in trying to launch a commercial game. It's a big piece of work to do so.
The original Endless Express was such a massive part of my younger years and initial introduction to indie games and is one of my favourite games for that reason. This is a fantastic updated version/sequel of that original game and means a lot to me.
I really enjoyed playing through this. It would be great if you guys could expand upon it later on, but there's no obligation. Also is the soundtrack of this game available anywhere? I really like that as well.
I played this before I even had an account here, and I loved it! I spent hours exploring and trying to figure out how everything worked, and, as a bonus, in that whole time I didn't find a single glitch! 10/10 from me!
I really liked it ! It was actually super cute and I loved the gameplay. I had fun playing this game, wasn't a waste of time. However, I played it on Linux and there were many bugs (texture bug to be more precise)...
As others have mentioned, there are many weird issues on Linux.
Aside from things like fullscreen not working, which were already mentioned, I also noted that, in windowed mode, the mouse is never hidden. It stays centered, but it never goes away and it's so distracting I can't keep playing it.
The funniest thing, though, is that running the Windows version on Wine actually works out of the box without any issues! So, for Linux users: just download the Windows version and you'll be fine.
Having an issue getting the game to work properly on Linux Mint 19. When I launch the game, it sets to the wrong resolution and then when I attempt to fix it in the settings it doesn't correctly register my mouse in the options menu.
I attempted to try the windowed mode fix someone suggested, but my mouse can't be recognized at all in the menu anymore and there is no way for me to disable fullscreen. I'm locked playing this game at the smallest possible resolution.
It's a shame, I installed this game way back when you first posted it and only played it recently. Really fun concept and style. I had a blast playing it even though it wasn't fully what you wanted it to be. It was lovely!
this is quite a fun an neat experience. it may not be some full giant game but there is some serious beauty in the simplicity and the way you approached this game. thank you for this.
"Of note would have to be Endless Express’ soundtrack and characters — neither of which express an overarching story, but create an odd and cartoonish atmosphere . . . there is a sense that, maybe, this is a not a place completely part of consciousness."
the watch idea is clever and detail. However, it blocks my sight sometimes and makes me hard to check schedule and time at the same time. In Fact, I won't simultaneously do that in the real life, but the fact that it's a bit hassle strongly make me feel "I'm in video game". But I really love the game other than that.
Fullscreen is kinda broken on Linux. Also, there's a really annoying sound loop... Other than that , it's a great game! Please check out the issues with Linux though...
Also you have support for QWERTY and AZERTY keyboards, why not do DVORAK as well?
EDIT: Turns out that annoying music is not a bug but an easter egg :P won't say how it happened so I don't spoil it for others XD
I loved the idea of an adventurous 3D space menu - I just wish every game had that. This is a great game for those who have low end computers. To be more specific, you can go to my YouTube About page (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClVDe_Ss73Z8gnfOOqkXB-g/about) to see what my laptop specifications are to get an idea.
I also loved the Wanted flyers! Haha! The jokes in the game are great! I definitely loved the aesthetics of the game, aka the flat shading. I feel like this game would be something I would look back on just for nostalgia. Oh, when choosing between social interactions, I find that they're too long. They need to be summed up. At least, that's what it seemed like what should happen. Maybe I'm just too used to playing games from Telltale. Anyways, here's my gameplay: https://youtu.be/I2hRLve288k
P. S. What do you guys think of my bathroom sign man on the bottom left of the thumbnail?
I had so much fun with this game and there is so much more content to it than I originally thought there was which was a wonderful surprise! I loved interacting with all the different characters and will definitly be revisiting this game. I did make a small gameplay video for it and if you got the chance to check it out I'd be very appreciative!
can someone pleas help me? I go to the 3rd world where the ferry guy is and I can't travel any further than that. I would like to see the other places and collect the collectables. plz help!!!!!
You will have to talk to the ferry guy to go back to the start, catch an orange train to the Gas Station place and then catch a pink train to the lighthouse then a red train to the jungle and go on the zip line thing (i dont know what it's called) and you should see the 'esc' door, go through it and go through the center door, it should open when you get close enough. After that you will have to walk through a cave with lightposts and a bamboo jungle and down an escalator you should see train there, get on the train (the doors will open for you) you will travel to an ice land, get of the train and walk towards the man and his hot air balloon, he will tell you what to do from then on! Have fun!
I really enjoyed the game! At first I didn't have much expectations, but then it was very fun to explore worlds, catch trains and meet strange characters. The atmosphere is surreal but also cute, I really like the design and the colours. The characters are very cute and different, they reminded me a bit of Miyazaki's animations. I found only an object near the lighthouse. I experienced 3 crashes with the trains (for example I was on the train and the second after I was on the rails. Also sometimes I got stuck with a dark screen when I entered the "dark" world with sea creatures).
It would be interesting to add more worlds, or to add more missions and goals, also to know more about the different "worlds" and the characters around ;) and i reallyy didn't copy this from anothe person beacouse i think he's rigth

The art style in this game is incredible. Whoever picked the colour pallette is a genius. This makes me want to learn how to make games in Unity, just for fun.
Okay, so im doing a project soon, and its been bothering me for like two years, what was the shading process you used to create the menu portal? Seamlessly spawn an enterable room in space like you did.

I really like artist!! Great game!~
I like the game, well done! M1 Mac Gameplay
Hey, I got stuck in one of the buildings and cant get out, so if there is a way to start the game over it would be great.

What was that? There was an anoying voice that was saying :pitty pitty pitty pu-ty" and it was really annoying. Then i got bored and left.

My written review featuring The Endless Express
"Of note would have to be Endless Express’ soundtrack and characters — neither of which express an overarching story, but create an odd and cartoonish atmosphere . . . there is a sense that, maybe, this is a not a place completely part of consciousness."
It would have been cool to see this become a full game.
the watch idea is clever and detail. However, it blocks my sight sometimes and makes me hard to check schedule and time at the same time. In Fact, I won't simultaneously do that in the real life, but the fact that it's a bit hassle strongly make me feel "I'm in video game". But I really love the game other than that.

More than broken, fullscreen breaks the screen down : I closed the game, my screen keeps blinking ! X.X
I run Archlinux with Deepin Desktop Environment
super fun! I loved it
I downloaded the game but haven't played yet. I think it might be cool. DO YOU KNOW DA WAY

Hey man can you please let me know how did you achieve the flat shading ?

Am I supposed to have a Doom bar at the bottom and somebody sorta.. scatting throughout?

I think it's a reeaaaaaaaalllll nice game
THX MAKERS
Looks cool, but can't get it to work on Linux D: (Using Ubuntu 16.10)
Just get a black screen and an a-wooshing (Maybe this is part of the game, but it doesn't seem like it)

The game keeps breaking for me after the 3rd stop. The music keeps running but the screen is just pitch black and nothing loads
Same problem with me (Mac OS X 10.12.3).
Very cool game, absolutely in love with the art style. Decided to make a video on it (^:
