Ben There, Dan That!

Ben There, Dan That!

To help inaugurate their new company, called Zombie Cow Studios, Dan Marshall and Ben Ward have released Ben There, Dan That!, a freebie adventure game starring none other than… them. It will sit side-by-side with Gibbage, their popular multiplayer deathmatch game (which is now half-price at £3/$6).

Ben There, Dan That! is funny, self-referential, and dutifully pays homage to all the Lucasarts classics (while poking a bit of fun at them). Definitely worth a look if you like old-school adventure games. Or humor. Or things of that sort.

By the way, whether or not they were a product of laziness, I absolutely love the walking animations.

(Thanks, seregrail7!)

    I’ve come to the conclusion that most zombie games are quite fun. You can’t fucking lose with zombies in your motherfucking computer game!

    Walking animations were done as a joke initially, but made us laugh so hard we kept them. They’re our best joke.

    Thanks for the plug ;)
