I'd like to thank the AGS community for all their support over the (just slightly long!) development process - it's been a difficult process at times and your encouragement has really helped keep me going.
Also without TheBitPriest's amazing dedication to the project it would never have got completed. Thanks buddy!
I've put the game page up now -
http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/games/game/2227/.
Congratulations! Finally it is done - I know how hard you have been working on this, with ups and downs, but you did it! I had the honour to test act 1 and 2 and the game is really great - classic puzzles, funny dialogs and hilarious references to almost every science fiction franchise between here and Acturus-1.
Don't forget to add the game to the AGS database Done :)
Congrats Dave! Finally man, I need the dose of Captain Disaster!
Excellent news indeed! Well done Captain, great job! :D What an awesome end-of-the-year gift that is!
YES! So happy to see this released at last :) Also extremely glad to have been part of the journey!
Cheers to you, cheers to the Captain! :D
Thanks everyone! Hope you enjoy the game ;-D
Thanks for asking me to do the VA, it was a lot of fun :D Hopefully I'll get around to playing it sometime soon.
Wow, congratz on releasing this!!
Thanks all! As I said on the GIP thread, it was a wild ride.
Some day, we'll write up a good post-mortem. We had at least as much drama in our real lives as the game itself!
Congratulations! Bought it as a birthday present for myself, so thanks for the well-chosen release date :)
This also makes it the first and only game I've ever purchased on day one.
Congratulations dude.
I'm really proud of being part of your project . I wish you every success.
Congratulations on the release! ;-D
Yay! After half a decade of development it's here!! I've followed this for so long it would feel like a crime to not play it.
Congratulations!
It's really lovely to see so much support for the game! We both really appreciate it. Hobo - I feel honoured that CD is your very first "1st day purchase"! ;-D
Amayirot and SinSin did some really terrific voice work for the game, it wouldn't be the same without their input.
Thanks Arj0n and Blondbraid!
@Two Tales - well you wouldn't want to be guilty of a crime now, would you? :-D
Congratulations on the release! This is one game I've been interested in for a while now. Glad to see it out in the world!
Good show! Glad to see another big project come to a successful close! :)
Congrats! Do I need to play the first Cpt. Disaster game first?
Congratulations on getting this out at last! Here's hoping you make a million in the first 48 hours and can retire to Hawaii. :)

Congrats! Do I need to play the first Cpt. Disaster game first?
In a way, this is the first Captain Disaster game. It just took a little longer! There's one reference to The Dark Side of the Moon in Act 3 (maybe two).
You should give The Dark Side of the Moon a spin. It's clever, but there's no need to play it first.
You spelled 'haberdashery' wrong.
Do I qualify for a QA credit and a free copy?
@dactylopus & WHAM - thanks guys! ;-D
@Snarky - well this has already been answered but not, the storylines for each game are completely self-contained. 8-)
@SilverSpook - haha well I did tell them at work that if I sold a million over the weekend, I wouldn't be coming in on Tuesday! (laugh)
@TheBitPriest - yep, Stomping Boots is technically the first, and always shall be! (Hopefully, it will always be the one with the longest development cycle too...) (roll)
@Kweepa - nice try matey but what you saw was a glitch in the Acturan Mind Learning Interface, which occasionally surfaces when unusual minds are involved. Since Captain Disaster's mind is certainly unusual, it is possible that this glitch will occur more than once, although we have tried to make sure this doesn't happen. No promises. No refunds! :-D
Just started playing and I like what I'm seeing so far, however I did notice a glitch in the Speeder dealership where every time you click on the poster with the green lady on it, CD will give the same description of what it looks like regardless of whether you're interacting or using an inventory item on it. Just thought I'd let you know.
Aw man where did this critter hide during the hundreds of hours of testing we put in? I'll make a note of it, thanks.
If anyone else finds a bug can you please PM me. Cheers.
Hope everyone who's playing is enjoying it! ;-D
Bought and downloaded yesterday. Just looking out for some spare time to actually play it.

That's great news Dave! ;-D
I'll get right on it after Neofeud... and Unexpected at the rising star... and Kanji Gakusei... and the House without Windows... and Gnome's Homebrewing Adventure... and Conspiracy: Below-Zero... and Legend of Hand...

Haha well I look forward to your thoughts on the game sometime in 2024 then mate! (laugh)
congrats! ;)
I worked on the demo for this, it's great to see the final product! If you have a fondness for planet-hopping sci-fi TV shows and movies of yesteryear, and you also like the idea of guiding a bumbling buffoon through a comedy of errors in deep space, give this game a try. Along the way you'll battle against galactic evildoers (not to mention various pieces of technology that are supposed to be there to help you) and cross paths with partying robots, huge translucent gelatinous shopkeepers, alien bureaucrats, and more...
Woohoo! Merry Christmas to me!
Thanks MiteWiseacreLives!, Taxler Endiosk and HanaIndiana! :smiley::smiley::smiley:
I know some of you passionately hate walkthroughs - this next bit is NOT for you! - I have completed the Act I walkthrough (http://www.captaindisasterthecomputergame.com/2018/01/captain-disaster-in-death-has-million_6.html).
Oh oh oh.... wait... this is finished and released! 8-0 :-D
Bit congratulations! Hope you sell a million copies (and then some more)... ;)
Congrats on the release D and CaptainD :D
HUGE congratulations, mate!
This game is amazing and a true inspiration to everyone out there who thinks they could never get a quality full-length game finished and released. You showed how to do it: Keep at it no matter what even if it takes a decade of work here and there and involves tearing apart a lot of what you have previously made and rebuilding and/or trashing it.
Even though I have played various versions of the game through about 10 times during testing I will be sure to get the release version, treasure it, and perhaps finish my playthrough faster than the game took to create. ;)
Thanks everyone!
SilverSpook did a great video this morning of him playing the game, and I was around to help (or not, possibly) since I'm at home sick. Which just goes to show, every cloud has a silverspook lining. Or something.

Another YouTuber did a Let's Play yesterday too:

I love watching Let's Plays of games that I love and especially games that I helped out/worked on and am rooting for!
Can't wait to follow these series!

Good times! I think I'll have to play more point and clicks on the stream. It's nice to have a crowdsourced hint system when you get stuck :D Great work on this game, lots of fun and more funny cheese-filling than a seven-layer cheese-only burrito.

Wow! What an awesome job of recreating the interior rooms!
I can see Zero-Bit's backside!
@Mandle - Zero-Bit is not impressed with your comment.
In other news - we got our first review! :) :) :) :)
https://neoretrogo.com/captain-disaster-death-million-stomping-boots-review
"The puzzles aren't the only enjoyable part of the game though, the story is absolutely delightful. If you like a humor filled sci-fi tale chocked to the brim with references many different science fiction properties than you won't be disappointed."
"Final thoughts: if you are in the mood for a good old school point and click this is a hard game to pass up. Even if that isn't your forte, the story is a fun romp and to me really sells the game."
VERY happy with that review. (Hoping to get that elusive 5 people to rate the game on the AGS game page (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/games/game/2227/) to get an overall impression of what people thought of it too.)
Nice :)
Hey :)
I was trying to download the demo, but can't find the link. :-\ The link on the AGS dB just sends to itch and all I can see is the buy link.
The old demo from 2012 is still available but we're updating it to reflect the final quality of the game - has taken a little longer than expected due to RL issues but should be available soon. I'll post when it is, will be putting it up on Itch and GameJolt (and FireFlower if they host demos). Watch this space!
Okay, thanks for the heads up. (nod)
Hope it gets up before nominations are over, so I can play it. :)
I'll sort out GameJolt and the AGS Games Page ASAP but for now the updated demo is available from https://captaind.itch.io/captain-disaster-in-death-has-a-million-stomping-boots.

Nah, I'm just a simple person, that likes simple things (like drag and drop a folder out of a zip file, instead of having to find the folder where to install, and delete the startup shortcuts). But at least you don't force the game to be full screen, so I've now just finished it. :-D
But I'll admit, I did had to use the walkthrough once... just once...
Spoiler
Apparently I'm not as cheese smart as I thought. (laugh) (roll)
Nice job man! :) Hope the sales are still moving.
Just completed the demo. Loved it :-D More than happy to pay for the full thing to support this. Well done!

Might turn off your massive potential audience base in Japan. 4 is an unlucky number here as it is pronounced "shi" which also means "death". And the more in a row, the worse it is. Bad things happen in Japanese horror movies at 4:44 (instead of Friday 13th). Room numbers usually skip room 4, 44, 444 etc. in hotels and hospitals.
Oh wait, there
is no massive potential audience base in Japan for western games.
Carry on!
Also, "Death" is in the title... (roll)(roll)

Neofeud has actually sold several dozen Steam copies in Japan as well as China! So I wouldn't say the market for adventure games there is completely non-existent. :)

Good to hear! The cyberpunk theme might have a lot to do with that as well of course. I'm not sure about sci-fi comedy with a lead Brummie character. Might go over heads. (laugh)
I've just activated the Captain Disaster Treble bundle - this contains Captain Disaster in: Death Has A Million Stomping Boots and 2 Captain Disaster ebooks - for $6.99 (normal combined price of the 3 items would be $11.49):

This bundle will be live until midnight on 9th June 2018.
I have played Captain Disaster some weeks ago and I had a blast!
Dialogues and descriptions are well-written and amusing.
Puzzles are just right: not too difficult, not too easy. Many were very creative and memorable, I had a lot of fun playing the game.
Graphics were nice and colourful.
Spoiler
Some backgrounds looked like they were drawn by different people, I'm not sure. The style wasn't completely cohesive, but maybe it's just me! But I'm just nitpicking.
Great job on the voice acting, it was really good.
The only sore note was Sir Mix-A-Bot, the Robot DJ. I have
absolutely no idea ((roll)) who voiced him, but man! that guy was terrible.
A few (minor) complaints:
Spoiler
The last act felt a bit rushed and less polished. It felt a bit short and its puzzles weren't as interesting as those in the rest of the game. The final one, especially, was a bit anticlimactic.
The story is a bit uneven. The villain doesn't get much exposure until the end, and his plan wasn't very clear. I would have liked to at least see those million stomping boots of the title! Instead, I was left a bit confused about the whole evil plan.
In general, I wish the game were longer. Probably because I had so much fun with it!
But, as I said, these are just small complaints. It was a very enjoyable game and I can totally recommend it to anyone who likes adventure games and sci-fi!
I hope to see more Captain's adventures in the future! :cheesy:
Congrats on a very enjoyable game. I too had a blast playing and couldn't seem to stop until I completed it. Very cool puzzles that were fun and enjoyable with a good variety of them mixed in. The game flowed really well and although the graphics could have been a bit more polished, they had a nice charm to them. I loved every bit of it.
Thanks to you and your team for a fun ride. Looking forward to your next game!

Really chuffed with a new review that game that was posted today :
https://xgeeks.co.uk/2018/10/04/captain-disaster-in-death-has-a-million-stomping-boots-review/ ;-D
"For gamers passionate about point and click games, Captain Disaster is a shining example of the genre. The array of unique and interesting puzzles is perfectly blended with quirky humour, pop culture references and skilled storytelling. It's everything a point and click game should be and more!"
How fun, congratulations on the good review! ;-D
Thanks Blondbraid ;-D

Nothing like hearing a lead character with a local accent (ish). The Saleswoman's jokes about Brummie are spot-on. Ya'm done good there, mate.
Looking forward to keep on playing, arr.

I can only imagine what my attempt at Brummie sounds like to you! :grin: The Saleswoman at least IS an authentic Brummie. Hope you enjoy the game. Please leave a rating on Itch if you do! ;)
I am enjoying it so far - on the second part of the game. The second act's main puzzle thread of
Spoiler
Having to fool the hand sensor is a pretty cool quest, and ties into the main character's characterisation very well.
Finished it - I really, really enjoyed this. Found it very funny, sparks of originality in some of the puzzles and I was sad when I finished it. Good job!
Thanks xandmatt - glad you enjoyed the game! ;-D

Captain Disaster is finally coming to Steam!
Tentative release date 22nd May 2020. I'll post again when the Steam Page is public.
Just to be clear, this is the exact same game as already available on Itch, GameJolt, etc - we will not be adding Steam achievements or anything to this particular game.
This game is a lot of fun, hopefully it will reach more people on Steam!
Add achievements later.. you can use one of the marketing rounds to get a bump in views ;)
@Lorenzo - thanks!
@Provateer_Puddin' - unfortunately there are reasons this won't happen, but planning to add achievements to other games...
One more note - if anyone has already bought the game on Itch (not grabbed it on free offer), you will be able to claim a Steam key there.
Oh, that's a good idea! I'll do the same thing if my commercial itch released games see a Steam release in the near future.
The Steam Store page is up!
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1298280/Captain_Disaster_in_Death_Has_A_Million_Stomping_Boots/
It's here!!! ;-D ;-D ;-D ;-D ;-D ;-D ;-D ;-D
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1298280/Captain_Disaster_in_Death_Has_A_Million_Stomping_Boots/
If you bought the game on Itch you will be able to claim a Steam key there as well, but please bear with me while I get this sorted out - I'll publish a devlog on Itch when it's ready.
Anyone who's been my patron for 6 months or more will be sent a complimentary key on Patreon.
Anyone involved in testing / voice acting etc, if you would like a complimentary Steam key please PM me here.
Also if anyone wants to hear me waffle about game design and stuff, my interview with AdventureGamePodcast is now out:
https://podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcast/episode-65-interview-with-captain-d/id1447524299?i=1000476145486
Love your Podcast Interview Captain (nod)
Long live Captain Disaster (laugh)
Thanks Les! ;-D
Nice interview! Now I want to know more about all those mysterious projects you're working on...
Thanks Lorenzo! All shall be revealed in good time...
In the meantime I have a request - if anyone bought the game on Itch and left a review, now that you have your Steam copy would you mind awfully posting a review on Steam as well? Sorry to be a pain but it's really difficult for small indies to get noticed and most often if you don't ask you don't get! ;)
