nickeedoo · Sat 08/05/2004 18:11:31

Thanks Maggie. You're a star!

Here's your solution:

Spoiler

Turn on the dishwasher in the kitchen

[close]

simian · Sat 08/05/2004 18:33:07

Spoiler

Could you give me a hint on how to get the coffee please?

[close]

nickeedoo · Sat 08/05/2004 18:43:21

Sure thing:

Spoiler

You need to slip something in the Pedestrian drink that doesn't agree with him. Talk to him to find out exactly what.

[close]

If anyone has any hints as to how I can keep the kitchen door open, I'd be most grateful. Or how to open the vent outside the Dojo. OR how to get the TV working in the Gameshop. I don't need much help.

simian · Sat 08/05/2004 19:03:50

Thank you, but:

Spoiler

Could you give me a hint on how to get the health food stuff?

[close]

The TV:

Spoiler

You need to use the hanger as an arial to get the TV working (detailed explanation below).

[close]

Spoiler

Use the cable wire with the TV out socket, use the hanger with the signal in socket then use the TV wire with the TV out socket.

nickeedoo · Sat 08/05/2004 19:10:42

Thanks for the hint!

Here's yours:

Spoiler

You've looked in the tumble dryer, right?

[close]

If that's still no good, then:

Spoiler

You can buy something with that quarter. But it's not IN the Gameshop

[close]

If that's no good, then:

Spoiler

Use the quarter on the coin slot one the newspaper dispenser thing outside the Gameshop/Contruction worker place. The newspaper will help you.

Another bug:

Spoiler

After you've got Thurston out of the shower and you pick up all the items he leaves, you can go back down to the kitchen and use the turn the dishwasher off, then on again repeating the scene where he gets out of the shower. If you go back into the shower the sponge is there again - but if you pick it up you don't get two of them.

[close]

I'm SOOOOOOOOOO stuck:

Spoiler

No clue what to do with the construction worker. No clue what to do with the CD player or CD-R I get if I open it. No clue how to keep the door open. No clue how to open the vent outside the Dojo. No clue how to get a membership for the fitness club

[close]

.

I'm rubbish.

Remco · Sat 08/05/2004 20:02:14

i'm about as far as nickeedoo and i am stuck to. Really don't have a clue, someone please give a clue :S.

Kweepa · Sat 08/05/2004 20:23:20

Well, this was a FANTASTIC game!
Certainly the best so far this year.
Probably my favourite AGS game...
nickeedoo, you hit it spot on when you said the graphics are comforting.

So, your hints:
CD player...

Spoiler

Open it again.

[close]

Vent outside Dojo:

Spoiler

Use sponge on grandma's cooking pot.

[close]

You should be good to go from there!

Again, thanks for the great game, Cerebrit. Great hints in the incidental dialog, great sound effects, etc. There's just a bunch of little bugs, mostly to do with the default responses.

Ashen · Sat 08/05/2004 20:26:04

About Thurston:

Spoiler

How do you get hm out of the shower? I've turned on the dishwasher, but he only says running out of hot water. Is there anything else I need to have done?

[close]

Scummbuddy · Sat 08/05/2004 20:45:46

alright, alright, move the "IM STUCK" questions to the hints and tip forum.

Bug reports stay here, and your love for the game as well.

I finally downloaded the game. Holy crap. What a game. I love how everything has a comment. not I can't do that. I love what you chose to say about all the things, like the plunger "always on duty" and the cleaning pads, "I can really get down and fight with these" (okay, not verbatim) but still, wow, and the extra things your grandpa says when you almost go downstairs. The only thing I can say that bothered me, was the way you added to the characters talking views, by taking half their face and moving it, sometimes. But I got used to it, and really, just wow....

Nostradamus · Sat 08/05/2004 20:48:47

more help:

Spoiler

Well I got the cleansing pads and sheets (also have the dice, comforter and Dexcalibur) but still can't advance in the game. I still can't do anything to get Knuckles out of the cage. What do I do next?

[close]

nickeedoo · Sun 09/05/2004 00:04:13

Spoiler

You can't go downstairs, so the only way out is through a window. You'll need to find a window you can open, but the obvious choice is stuck shut because it's so DIRTY. You'll need something to climb out the window with too.

[close]

I'm stuck. It's midnight now and I've obviously not thought of what to do.

Spoiler

Grandma won't let me in the kitchen, I've opened the vent but I can't stick anything in the vent. I've got some batteries. Oh, I'm going to bed. Grrrr

I would like to see a page of yours with all of your completed backgrounds, maybe some tutorials on how to make several of them, and of course, whats next for you. Sounds like an eZine article waiting to happen.
also some characters design with tutorials.

Kweepa · Sun 09/05/2004 02:02:31

All I need to hear is that you're working on a new game!
I don't think tutorials are going to help us much - it seems to me your artwork is the result of skill, not technique. I hate you

nickeedoo,
Trip over to the thread in Hints and Tips for help in your situation.

Ashen · Sun 09/05/2004 02:58:49

Got another bit of a bug....
If I leave the 25 hour gym in the middle of the training session, the floating upper body of the fitness professional follows me around, even on the map screen. He's clickable as well.
NOTE: this only happens the first time, but not if I go back and leave again.

jb2815 · Sun 09/05/2004 03:27:29

This game is great! I've just finished it, some of those puzzles were quite challenging too. Maybe for the final release you could add a credit sequence instead of it just quitting straight away. Good work.

LucasFan · Sun 09/05/2004 10:05:03

This is the best thing I have played since Maniac Mansion 2!

skulls · Sun 09/05/2004 10:17:09

I love the graphic style !

Remco · Sun 09/05/2004 11:01:38

argh, i'm stuck again and i am getting desperate. damn game.

Spoiler

I have that cutting bord, that cooler and that bottle with ketchup. I don't know what to do know, it seems like i have to get some distraction in that dojo but i don't know how. Please someone help me $:-\$
