Sometimes average people are called upon to do extraordinary things. Things like saving the world from zombies, who are also aliens, who are invading Earth and bringing forth a zombie-alien apocalypse. That's what average fellow Paul Pixel must do in his forthcoming adventure game Paul Pixel - The Awakening. Paul wakes up one day to find that the part of the city where he lives has been quarantined, due to that pesky zombie-alien invasion thing, and he wants to get out! Of course, to do that he'll have to save the world and stuff along the way. Check out the trailer for Paul Pixel.
