This game follows the story of what happens after the John Carpenter 1982 movie adaptation of the John W. Campbell JR Novel "Who Goes There?". The original game borrows heavily on the story from the 2002 video game and the current sequel expands further on the plot after Captain Blake defeats the Thing entity. After the death of Whitley and the destruction of Gen Inc property; Captain J.F.Blake boards a rescue plane and leaves Antarctica. Complications arise and the aircraft malfunctions and crashes. With no report from Blake the Alaska base sends in a new rescue team of which you the player take control. Your task is to find Captain Blake and escort him back to Alaska. However the thing entity did not die with Whitley on that day...

Details about when the game will be available for full FREE release and some other stuff about Art etc :)

Story, Original and Survival modes are now complete and have been tested several times. All that really remains now before the First Full Public Release is Cosmetic and Minor Things. The Reason for Delaying the game is that the Ending artwork is not yet complete and it feels somewhat wrong to make the player complete the game and short change them. The release date has been moved to the 28.11.2013 which should give me enough time to crack the whip and get any final testing done. If I have any remaining time left I will use it to create extra DLC and such. If anyone has any recommendations for content that I can turn into DLC (Such as Fan-Fiction stories) then please post them on the most recent news article (or inbox me). When the 28th November arrives the game will be freely available for PC download via ModDB or Mediafire links. (This will include both the standard and lite versions). Anyway here is a cheesy trailer I created;
