Development
Development
Endless Express was the product of a five person team collaborating at a "7DFPS" game jam in 2014 - an event which is meant for first-person shooter video games, as noted by PC Gamer.
Gameplay
Gameplay
Endless Express starts off with the player waking up in a train station. Using only a watch and a train timetable, they must find their way home, being sure to catch the correct trains. The game is a combination between accelerated time and semi-real-time, with train stations being in real time and the travel being accelerated. The game also makes use of different animation styles, with low-polygonal textures for terrain, while using a cartoonish style elsewhere.
Reception
it takes one of the most unsettling experiences a person can have and seems to effortlessly turn it into something charming and comfortable. In a November 2014 article, PC Gamer called the gameplay of Endless Express "compelling", with Kotaku stating that it was "full of charm." Kill Screen described the game as having a "dreamlike quality...magical realism."
