A downloadable game

This is 'Lucas Game', a new video game from Outhouse Media. It's a Metroidvania game where you're wandering through some kind of skylight, and you start to explore. We call it 'Lucas Game' because it's sort of a Metroidvania game and it's sort of an ARNABENT game. So, you're walking around, you're picking up stuff, and the AI is sort of using some sort of physics system to sort of save time by keeping you in the same place. So, you figure out what you're doing, and then you keep going.
There's a whole world of sidequests and secrets that are available and at first we just tried to explore everything. But it was becoming kind of like a puzzle game and we started to randomly walk the block, like, "What's going on there? Why are there these things going on? Why is this thing, and why is this thing here?" And it just kind of got really silly. And so now the idea of just creating a video game I guess just because we can. CHRIS - What's the execution like? JACK - It's very pretty. The original game was made on Unreal Engine, which really is not that great technically. So, we were using the same engine, the same paints and the same lighting system, but we didn't really have any animations. We just kept pressing and you can see the animation going on, and the art was just so good that we just used it
