Overview
All Of Our Friends are Dead is a side-scrolling platform shooter with a horror theme. There is no background story, the protagonist simply needs to move on and destroy all threats. The creature can move around, jump, and shoot in any direction through mouse movement, using an unlimited amount of bullets. Next to the enemies there are also many platform elements, and short non-interactive scenes where certain messages or images are shown. To reach higher areas certain jump strips can be used to glide upwards. In later levels the character also needs to collect keys to open doors.
The game's dominant colours and black, white and red, and often disturbing images are shown. Every single hit is fatal and requires the level to be replayed, but it is possible to quick save/load a single gamestate. Some of the ideas were eventually re-used in the later-released Au Sable by the same developer.
