Good Luck!

*Update*
The latest version (the v2.5.4 update) is still being worked on and will include a bunch of changes/fixes to the game as well as some new minor features. The Game Icons should also be getting an overhaul but I don't know when we can do this by.
In addition I am working on a Chinese Translation for the game, its my first Translation so I hope it comes out alright.

Thanks Guest.

Thanks, I know it'll never be quote:"A true thing game" but I had fun making it.

Sadonrii will be live on Twitch @ 2pm PST today playing The Thing 2 RPG v2.5.3, Come along and Join us in the chat! Twitch.tv

Just waiting for 1 more voice.

Thanks.

Only 3 more voices to record! Wooo! ( Youtube.com )

It was very funny to watch thank you. Sorry about the fever bugs :P

Thanks for giving it a go ^-^ There's a lot of info in the tutorial but outside of that the game doesn't really hold your hand. It can get quite difficult at times, lots of people die and stuff.

Swedish is balls hard in Prequel Mode. Got as far as the bit when you go to B5 and have the fight with Human Marin. I was pretty much stuck down there afterwards with no ammo, hardly any people and no healing supplies.

The v2.5 will be the final update for the game (aside from fixes) and there is quite an injection of content going into prequel mode. There's still some content waiting to be revealed so stay tuned. The New Spectres aren't all you need to worry about down there...

A disturbed scientist who is staring at the ocean outside the ship deck in the freezing cold. A panicky/jittery crew member hiding in a storage room, really afraid of leaving and someone who has been injured but is quite proud/stubborn and is trying to make his way to the bridge. I haven't really defined accents for them, I'll just take what comes.

Yes, 3 more male crew members.

Glad you liked it. More to come soon in the v2.5 Update

Strange "Thing" found in Idaho... Where's Blair?

Found a crash problem: If one of your Vital NPC characters dies and it forces the gameover scene; If you choose "Load Game" the next battle you face will crash the RGSS3 player. It's a problem with Refreshing itself but the root cause is unknown. Instead go back to "Title Screen" and "Load Game".

Glad you enjoyed it. If you get over 99 hours 99 minutes 99 seconds let me know what happens to the save screen clock. I'm not sure what it will do lol. I'd play survival to get the extra weapons they might be useful to you on harder difficulties; They also have good CRI rates.

Sadly I don't own the rights to the thing so there won't be a third one. There is an incomplete "What If" DLC that was planned set 30 years into the future that would involve a new character alongside an older Blake who have to infiltrate a new facility where the "captain" is held prisoner but I thought it was just best left as is. As for the mysterious Gen Inc Board one of the endings suggests the remnants formed a new company but if you look at Jose's Ending there are other parties interested in that thing too.

If you decode the military orders you can save Quintel which moves his community to a new area unlocking more of the story. Don't forget that he is a former gen inc doctor and it's Makalov who has it out for him. Mac and Subject #21 (if unlocked) are random events that may or may not occur everytime you visit Quintel's community. It's like the Merc Trading Post but it gives you a notification rather than being shady and elusive.

Gen Inc's agenda is unclear. Faraday's vision is to cure cancer and make a lot of money in the process. Other's have a more... military view of things but the wider scale of their operations is unknown. In Blake's notes if you can learn about Gen Inc's Timeline if you move Quintel's community. I'm a fan of Resident Evil and I like the Umbrella organisation they are a worthy adversary so I think that was the perfect mold for that Gen Inc should fit.

Well the next step for me is to learn some coding, I'm looking into JavaScript and I might use RPG Maker MV engine. With Jose's Artistic help I want to make my own series now that I've had some practice with this. I do like Perma Death and I'm fond of games like Xcom and Fire Emblem so I might try to go for a more turn-based strategy RPG style next time around but if not I will likely do something similar to the things style but following a more open world approach rather than the separate stories.

Thanks Jose, Keep yourself out of trouble!

alright well when it's ready I look forward to seeing it.

Thats the scientific word yes. I couldn't believe there was a real life energy revolver, I just had to include it. Although I haven't finished the walkthrough the guide on my website has all the info about hidden unlockables and theres a section on where you can retrieve unlocked rewards too:

The only "Alien" weapon is the TP-82 Plasma Revolver. Based on a Russian Prototype Weapon for Astronauts.

The real life version of the gun she makes for you is terrifying. Users reported damaged wrists from operating it. Damn British people and their crazy ideas.

I'm a man obsessed with obscure references and hidden secrets. I got to experiment a lot with the different modes and I think I definitely like a more open play area with lots to do. I hope to take what I learned from this and apply it to something new.

You make the game sound too easy with a huge army, What difficulty are you on? Have you tried playing on Swedish + Iron + Realistic + Tape Saving? I'd be impressed if someone beat that.

I think I vaguely remember; You are welcome to do what you need to do with it although I still officially endorse Sadonrii's Let's Play. I would avoid using any copyrighted audio or imagery relating to the thing 2002 video game or any of the films as that is likely to cause a copyright storm especially the use of Ennio Morricone's amazing soundtrack. Do you have a link to your new channel?

Lani is the weapon specialist :P Have you recruited her for Quintel's Outpost yet?

No its randomly generated every time.
It stops cheating lol

At the Ruined Outpost there are 4 terminals. Each displays a digit that makes up the 4 digit passcode. You will have to write down the randomly generated digits and try to assemble them into a code. The code will be between 0000 and 9999.
