The graphics and characters are delightful. I <3 your hint delivery. I have hit a couple bugs, one that I am convinced is obstructing me from moving in the game. 1, if I examine bed in east bedroom, I discover gum 2x. The second is after I get the key and unlock the west door, it says the door is unlocked, but then when I try to go in, it tells me its locked. I can't gain access.
Thanks for playing and the feedback! I've gotten a few other reports of problems with that door, I'll have to look into those.
Amazing graphics and very fun story! Loved it!
This game was pretty fun though the parser can be improved a bit and a few bugs. Well done!
Bug report: You can get the shiny object with any object, e.g. GET OBJECT WITH RAKE but then you will carry the "shiny object" around as if it was still stuck.
Oh wow, nice find! Thanks for playing and thanks for the feedback!
I love the spooky theme. Have emailed you a transcript!
Main issue (a minor one) I found was that 'toilet' is misspelt in the game as 'toliet' and the game doesn't recognise the correct spelling.
Thanks for playing! That toilet misspelling has actually been the most reported bug so far!
Finished the game. I loved the graphics and the characters.
Thanks so much for playing! Glad to hear you were able to make it through!
Neat game, and I like the retro graphics. However I can't get past the monster. He keeps eating the same monstrous meal over and over with no new outcome. He probably ate my damn dog too.
Thanks for playing! He's got a big stomach, so you might need to feed him a lot to fill it. Or, you could try mixing something into his food to make him need to leave...
I know what I should mix, but having problem finding the correct command. Can you help with command?
Did you try to mix the food with the meal?
yes, i tried that. I get "You can't do that right now."
Is there any other requirement (i do have both food and meal in my inventory) for this action?
Seems there is another way to deal with monster. I just succeeded with that other method.
I found few bugs along the way. Let me know if you need them and how to send them.
I found out that you must include the word "rotten" when mixing the food with the meal even though you do not need to include the word "rotten" if you just examine the food, e.g. X FOOD works fine. It would be good to make the word "rotten" optional when mixing the food with the meal.
Oh, thanks for solving that bug! I'll definitely work that fix in when I update the game.
Oh, crap. Is that the secret? I've been struggling with that for an hour or so.
