Great, so I'll try to throw out a few more ideas:

  1. off the top of my head, Ultima 7 also had the ability to stack crates or chairs on top of each other, and then climb on them. This could add even more depth to the game (and again would require redoing everything with mouse drag and drop)

  2. In Ultima 7 the best thing was to move an object and discover a secret object behind it. For example, you moved a chair and saw a lever behind it, which opened a secret wall. How did you know that you had to move that chair among 1000 chairs? Maybe you found a hint somewhere else in the world, even far away, that said there was a secret in that house.

  3. as I said, inside the drawers/chests you saw many objects stacked on top of each other, and you had to move one to reveal (for example) a key underneath it.

  4. the way you set up the game has a lot of potential because, since there is a huge quantity of all objects, you could theoretically have puzzles that are both realistic AND not too easy. Which is very difficult in a normal adventure game where there are few objects and therefore it is easy to brute force.

  5. since I understand that you don't have time to make a complete game, then why don't you just make an engine, an editor, with which you allow someone else who has more time to make a complete game? This editor could also be a commercial project!

  6. you could also experiment with exteriors, not only interiors.

Very very interesting! It's basically Ultima 7 turned into an adventure game. It has the same huge level of interaction: you can move everything, search everything, etc. I would have made it so you can search inside containers like in Ultima 7, with the drawer (or chest) that appears superimposed, with the objects inside. It would be even better, because you could have objects that cover other objects, and then you have to open the drawer and then move an object to discover some hidden object underneath. This would obviously require you to redo the entire mouse-driven interface, because it requires drag and drop.

And this brings me to the only, huge flaw of this game. Why on earth didn't you make a mouse interface based on drag & drop? All you had to do was like Ultima 7. This keyboard interface is unnecessarily cumbersome, a real pain to play. Anyway, I think I could get over it. If the game is long and the puzzles are good, I would pay A LOT for this game. :) Good luck!

I really liked the overall vibe and the user interface. I laughed hard in the beginning: if you've never played 9 verb, God help you. Thanks a lot for this game!

Great art. I'd pay for a full length heist or spy game in this style :)

I liked that the game mechanics was unclear. Not knowing what the possibilities are is a way to makes puzzles interesting.

Anyway, one thing was a bit confusing. I found two endings, none of them felt like a win, and the game does not tell you if there is a better ending. Is there one? :)

A very fun game, with good puzzles and particularly well-crafted animations. I might have appreciated slightly more challenging puzzles. Very enjoyable!

Captivating sci-fi setting, great story, interesting gameplay based on searching for keywords. The puzzles are different but satisfying. Well balanced difficulty level. A great entry, as we've come to expect from Lorenzo!

This is one of the best adventure games I've played in years. It feels like Zak McKracken, same puzzle quality and atmosphere. But without the mazes and cashcards, thank goodness. Puzzles are hard. I'm stuck, and loving it. Really amazing!

I seem to have the same problem (Bernard eats the sausage and then it goes black except for the inventory), but on windows 10.

It looks like it: Bernard eats the sausage and then the rest goes black.

the card is a rather old "nvidia geforce gt 330".


Edit: I seem to have the latest driver:

the computer is an intel i5.

Thanks :)

The game doesn’t work for me. I only see moving white dots on a black screen, and the subtitles. On Windows 10.
