This isn't really a bug, more of an oversight probably:

Spoiler

After Thurston has given you the hearing aid, if you talk to him again you can still ask him why he doesn't just give you the hearing aid.

Right, I'm off to play it again, I think I've just worked something out! I love this game.

nickeedoo · Sun 09/05/2004 12:58:16

Hurrah! Just finished it! Congrats Cerebrit on what I consider to be the best game made with AGS ever. Simply astonishing.

Need a bit more help:

Spoiler

I've burst the ball in the gym but I don't know what to do next. I'm guessing you have to do something with the bench press?

DanClarke · Sun 09/05/2004 14:35:41

I havent played a lot of this but it's the most solid, best looking AGS game i've played so far. Fantastic

Simian:

Spoiler

You're right. The fitness instructor seems to find the bench press incredibly easy. Perhaps you could make it SEEM a little heavier without using weights.

Thanks but I'm still stuck:

Spoiler

Do I need to use the glue gun on the bench press? I don't know how to get into the constuction bit to get it. Also, how do I make a distraction in the dojo?

First of all very good game! It is one of the best games I've ever played, so far.

The Game crashed! Help me! When I talked to grandma and said goodbye, the game crashed with this error :

(Global Script line 2249)
Error : AnimateCharacter : Invalid loop number specified

I hope you can fix this, because i'd love to finish this game!

Good thinking. The construction worker isn't always looking at what he's doing, he could have an accident and he wouldn't even notice. Why not make him believe he's had an accident?

Remco:

Spoiler

You've gotten Thurston out the shower right? Perhaps he's left something in the shower that could get you in on the lesson?

[close]

Remco · Sun 09/05/2004 20:40:52

yes, i have that white coat, but then he says that i am to late, and i need to get distraction or something. And about the glue pistol, i have that worker away, but when i want to take that pistol, that walkie talkie is shouting. this game is making me crazy.

Ashen · Sun 09/05/2004 20:50:07

Whoo hoo! Finished! At least, I think I did. Was there a Game Over screen or something?
Great game, not too easy, not too hard (mostly), looks great. Did I mention I liked it?

Remco:

Spoiler

You need to get the walkie talkie out of the way. Or at least, off the wheelbarrow....

[close]

Remco · Sun 09/05/2004 20:52:27

could you be a little more clear? i don't get a thing of this :S.

Ashen · Sun 09/05/2004 20:55:57

At the construction site:

Spoiler

Pick up the walkie talkie (you may have to try this twice before it let's you, don't quite remember). Then pick up the Glue Gun.

[close]

Then, at the dojo:

Spoiler

Use the walkie talkie on the open air vent. When the instructor comes out, sneak in and put on the robe.

[close]

Remco · Sun 09/05/2004 21:01:34

finally, i solved it. Great game, only a bit to difficult (for me).

Do0kie · Sun 09/05/2004 21:13:40

Hold it, hold it.

Spoiler

I can't find a buck to buy a haute dog in order to get the ketchup.

[close]

I like the game a lot, but although I'd say I have quite some experience with adventure games I find it to be not exactly one of the easiest I've played. The main problem would be that the dialogs have almost no role in this game and give only very little info.

Ashen · Sun 09/05/2004 21:32:39

Do0kie:

Spoiler

You get the dollar from the Grandad, after you've found hi cane, his hearing aid, and the missing brownie ingredient for Grandma.

[close]

The one problem I saw, if I'm being critical, is

Spoiler

The coffee drink/brownie ingredient is a little obscure. I might've missed something, but it was only a guess that that's what you needed. Maybe if the pedestrian had said something about getting the last ones in the shop, and just beating some old lady to them, it'd made a little more sense.

Do0kie · Sun 09/05/2004 23:05:21

Finished it! One of the best AGS games so far. I'll add it to my favourites next to 5 Days a Stranger.

simian · Mon 10/05/2004 06:30:44

Still need more help:

Spoiler

I take it I need to use the ketchup on the builder? And I need to buy a hotdog to get it? How do I get grandma to finish making her cookies? Do I need to get Rufus to go into the kitchen? How can I keep the door open?

[close]

EDIT: Its alright I've finished it now. Great game.

InCreator · Mon 10/05/2004 08:29:47

Completed it too!
Hm. How it happens for you to use only bright colors? Have you studied art/color composition somewhere or what? I looks so good.
Really, Tutorial would be nice. And a sequel.
