Grandpa Pip's Birthday

Welcome to Pipsville, a back water town at the far flung corners of a distant land. Things are very quiet because it's Samhain, a sleepy time in Autumn when not much happens. But as always, someone is creating a drama. This time its a birthday party and an unexpected visit from an undead army. Tisk, how typical, mountains out of molehills I say.

Cutthroat You, Homesick Me

Ollie. Loner and outcast - and he prefers it that way. 

So it wasn't a surprise to him when he was made to leave to take up a job in Red Hollow. A city of monsters, no one ever seems to return. 

What does surprise him is that he feels more at home there than the quiet, human-inhabited town he grew up in. Maybe there's friendship in ghosts and vampires after all. 

Made in Unity, using Fungus for Ludum Dare 33 by Warlord Dreadful.

The Meteva Accident, which happened on the 4th of May 2029, was one of greatest setbacks in biotech research of the twenty-first century.
