Remember Z-econd Chance? No? Well here's the remake anyway!

Z-econd Chance is a jam game made over the course of 48 hours for the 3rd Manasoup Game Jam. It can be played in all its original German glory here: https://howtobehayes.itch.io/z-econdchance

And now it's back, with all the original German voice-acting, artwork, music, and unnecessarily large labyrinths! But there's more! We also have:

- Subtitles in both German AND English! 

- Improved game mechanics! 

- Fully implemented animation this time! 

- A number of quality of life features that were lacking in the original jam version!


Join the wonderful and slightly mad Richie Prepheimer on an adventure of dodging zombies, building barricades, and avoiding socialising in the most terrifying setting of all: an impromptu family gathering!

If she can reach her bunker before getting torn apart by her newly bloodthirsty family members, she'll be safe! Luckily, Richie already prepared for every eventuality the day before, right?

... Right?


Meet the mysterious Galactic Whiskers, who Richie has been trailing for quite a while now:


Anzety AKA Jussi https://anzety.itch.io/

According to reports, this person was the supposed designer behind the humans and zombies.


MissSpelled AKA Anouk https://missspelled.itch.io/

Captured transmissions revealed, that this woman was involved in the programming of the original jam game. It is also believed that she was responsible for the concept and voice of the news reporter.


Hayes AKA Connor https://howtobehayes.itch.io/

The artist behind much of the background art hides behind this mysterious alias. Richie also believes that he had a part to play in her own creation.


Kirito AKA Tim https://kob-kirito.itch.io/

Rumours say that Kirito was deeply involved in the programming of the original jam game. His true intentions remain a mystery, even to the most creative conspiracy theorists.


hvairn AKA Lea https://hvairn.itch.io/

Behind the mantle of hvairn hides the great creator, whose talent for design lies in the very tilesets that make up the world.


leogenie AKA Leonie https://leogenie.itch.io/

She ws believed to have been the spirit behind the game concept. Her involvement in developing the idea and concept of the game awaken much curiosity and speculation regarding her true motives.


RoronoaRica AKA Rica https://roronoarica.itch.io/

This mysterious individual is believed to be the writer of the script and even the artist behind the original title design. It's even thought that she may have given her voice to the protagonist Richie.


ZacKow264 AKA Zac https://zackow264.itch.io/

The creator of the acoustic landscape. Various rumours also believe him to have been involved in the level design.


Thanks to Hayes AKA Connor for designing both this Itch page
AND the Itch page of the original jam version!

Hey, just played it and it was a pretty fun time with an original concept.
I had trouble understanding the point of the barricades for the first level and didn't expect the family to turn into zombies the moment I go to the "exit marker"
i just ran for it having placed nothing and it worked lol.
Garden level was great ! 

Voicelines are often cut, especially when near an exit.

Fun times, thanks for the translation :)

The voicelines were from the original game, I didn't want to remove them and I never took the time to redesign the levels... it's the unfortunate product of not-so-great planning.
I'm really glad you enjoyed the game!
