GILGAMESH II
A downloadable game for Windows
THE LONG-AWAITED SEQUEL TO THE ORIGINAL CLASSIC
As the Babylonians, looking towards the already ancient poetic world of Gilgamesh- I hope to renew gaming's ancient and poetic world: that world of "Bump Combat".
The fragments are evident in many places: as the Babylonians took multiple works of poetry, and founded a single narrative by conjoining them, I hope to redeem this underappreciated form by taking elements from its most derided entries and building them into a single work- which by its virtues I hope will shine a new light on history.
AT THE END OF THE WORLD, USHERING IN A NEW ERA...
GILGAMESH II
Promising hours of broken crafting systems and unfinished, empty dungeon floors, GILGAMESH II is the right product for you this Holiday Season. It is a continuous work- a historical work, which will never be finished. It needs a manual, but does not have one.

Bug report: Help, I accidentally condemned Max Serf to a life of eternal torment and suffering. He now is just a mass of infinite textboxes appearing without any end in sight, I've left the room and came back and even saved and reloaded my game, has anyone encountered this bug and do you know how to fix it.
Man, this truly is the game of all time. But in all honesty, it's very fascinating! A lotta weird stuff, weird items that don't seem particularly useful, at least to someone who doesn't know the game's mechanics inside out, and there doesn't seem to be a particular objective... but I'm very ok with that! It's kinda fun to just see how far I can go without dying or screwing myself over, experimenting with the resources and tools you can find around!
Any reccomendations for playing non-tank characters?
zoe's guide has a lot of tips on boosting your stats using sourdough and the trainers, which can be used to give significant boosts to whatever stats- she is planning to update it more, but since her last update i've added a few pieces of armor that drop, the aliens in particular drop an "Energy Barrier" that depletes MP instead of HP which can be useful along with the MP restorative they drop- if you select an alien to start these will be in your inventory at the beginning. i still need to add more kinds of equipment but for now that might make it slightly easier at least.

Edit: pretty sure it's fixed
shoutouts games who need manuals but dont have one
psssst…over here…i got somethin' for ya if that's a bother
EDIT: the above link now points to version 2 of the guide which is much more comprehensive than the first version and also includes a more proper tutorial; if you still want version 1 for some reason it's here
also if anyone wants to see a high-res version of the "glossy card" part of the start screen, here's that as well
I reckon I like me that there bump combat, simple as. Great as always, thank ya kindly.
If anyone wants to play this in Linux, I had good luck using a fresh 32-bit Wine prefix.
