What are The Bad Bad Trip?
The Bad Bad Trip is a short atmospheric indie adventure featuring Oliver Johanssen suspiciously navigating his way through gruesome encounters with unfortunate worldly events. It being 1925 Gisborne grounds the dimension in strangeness. Oliver is an unlucky fisherman who needs a big catch to feed his family, yet his attempts are interrupted by ominous events happening in treacherous waters.
Entirely made through Blender, Krita, and Godot (slightly different than being AI-driven), the game embraces real open-source flavor while offering a moody, narrative-driven experience. Expect survival elements and eerie encounters, where even a single decision can determine whether life is while put ashore or is forever lost at sea.
Gameplay
- Navigation & Fishing: Sail your boat taking fuel-efficient routes, cast your nets, and conserve limited supplies.
- Survival: Hunger, fatigue, and sanity levels need constant monitoring. But storms, dwindling supplies, and... other things oppose your coping.
- Story Selection: Dialogue and actions determine the fate of Oliver-will you listen intently of warnings, or maybe just ignore them?
Tips & Tricks
- Conserve Fuel: Chasing tales can empty your tank. Give priority to established fishing grounds first.
- Watch the Weather: Storms get worse quickly. If the sky darkens, consider heading back.
- Trust (or Distrust) Locals: Tavern gossip may either point toward actual dangers or divert you from the truth.

Why You Should Play
