Lost in the woods? Humans got you confused?

The Grey Man is not for the impatient gamer, it's definitely riding on that classic "figure it out" retro game appeal of generations long forgotten.

If you find yourself having a hard time wrapping your mind around the flow of the experience, we offer you some guidance in the form of a "First 12 Minutes" playthrough video.

This should not only act as a more straightforward gameplay guide but also might allow you to repeat many of the more advanced moves utilized by a veteran player.

We hope you enjoy and continue to get weird in the woods with us!

GAME
  • Several revisions have been made to the intro tutorial text.
  • Added additional communication prompts.


SYSTEM
  • Made a few small behind-the-scenes adjustments. Sshhhhhh...

THE GREY MAN v1.02 - LIVE AND IN CHARGE

GREY MAN v1.02 PATCH NOTES:

+ Fixed a bug wherein the UFO tutorial prompt would appear at the wrong time.

+ Fixed a bug wherein the UFO tutorial prompt would appear each time the user enters Bugcatcher's Meadow.

+ Increased the time between tranquilizer shots on the first Ranger encounter so that the player has more time to attempt to capture him

+ Some general Ranger balancing

And what did IndieGames.com have to say about THE GREY MAN, you might ask?

Read it all, tonight, on the internet - RIGHT HERE BABY!

"So, go enjoy your life as a stranger in this land. Trouble might be coming for your alien buddy, but in the meantime, he's got insects to befriend and campers to bug."

Thanks for the love folks,

THE GREY MAN v1.01 HAS LANDED

Okay dude, it's time for the 30 day patch that your mother has been wondering about and your father already loves.

This update features some minor changes, mostly centered around player communication. We've made it more clear how our human gates work, and also fixed a pretty rare location saving problem that basically teleported the Grey Man around like a real wild animal across full screens, confusing everyone.

Patch notes below:

THE GREY MAN - v1.01 PATCH NOTES

GAME

  • Fixed a rare bug wherein using the UFO's Fast Travel ability towards the end of the game would cause the Grey Man to appear at the wrong sides of the screen while traveling between certain areas.
  • Fixed a bug that was causing the game to trigger a fade out transition when the player approached right-side exits, even if they didn't capture enough humans to advance to the next area.
  • One human's behavior has been altered.

SYSTEM

  • Improved messaging for when the user tries to enter an area without having captured the proper amount of humans. Made the 'Humans Required' pop-out display larger so it's easier to read, in addition to adding an error sound.

Thanks for playing folks, we'll be here all weekend!
