1) I have already nerfed that particular part of the game three times. It is incredibly common for newbie game developers (like me) to make their levels more difficult than they realize. When I released the game, I was worried that part would be too easy, if that gives you an idea. I can't exactly hire beta testers. I am not Todd Howard. I am just a dude with limited time trying to learn how to make games with a fan game. I am sorry for how my oversight has frustrated people, but please don't expect me to have all the skill and wisdom of established game developers, even bad ones.
2) I have be politely asked a few times recently to see if I can fix it further, and I plan to by having the light flicker lessen/be more predictable. It'll be some time before I can do this, but it's on the list of things I gotta do. And I want it VERY clear that it is being done because I was informed by kinder, more considerate players. Your first comment was fine, and I get that you're frustrated, but there's never a need to attack someone over a game, period.
3) If my next nerf doesn't help much, there is a "bug" you can take advantage of to help you get past that part: Link can get got by the statues, but Abe can't. You can basically use Abe like a shield against them. I pointed this out in the walkthrough, but maybe I can find a way to point it out in game as well/make it less a bug and more feature. Hope that helps.
Hey, glad you've enjoyed it so far! I'm still working on Chapter two. I meant to have it done by this October but I've been held back by personal events and Covid stuff. Still might release it in December tho ^_^
Yeeeeee I need to make a walkthrough and post it on my blog soon for exactly this reason.
For folks reading, SPOILERS!!!!!
If you're asking about where to find chips to play the games, there's a plant in the upper right corner of the bar, at the top of the casino map. Select it and you'll find that someone put hella chips there that you can use. If you use them up on the wrong games, you won't get enough tickets and get a game over screen, but then you start again where you left off with all the chips. You'll have enough chips to get the tickets you need, but you have to spend them on the right game(s), and there's clues from the other gamblers on what game's best. If you get stuck again or need help let me know ^_^
LMAO yeah Link has at least three different meanings one can take away. I wanted him to be a lot more quiet and Link-like originally, actually, but showing a character with no dialogue AND no body language is tough
