Ok, this game isnt that good, and it's not very long either, but it was more of a learning project for me. Even so, please try it out and tell we what you think. There were a few bug wich I couldn'r figure out how to fix, so I apologise fore those.

It won't open, it says it can't load the first room.

try either the horrible "freewebs: (shudders)
or you could ask someone you know for upload space.
The fediverse needs great indie game developers! Find me there!

RoboPenguin

Hell no, not freewebs. Freewebs is angelfires evil associate...

Just right click on the link and 'Save target as'. It works then.

Please pay attention to Pelican's suggestion, it work!

I don't experience "can't load the first room"

Simply run program from compile directory of program's

By the way RoboPenguin,

I know there is a $20 near boat.

So far, Get empty glass from table and the sun from counter(odd place for it.)

Used empty glass on mud puddle near fisher man(exchange for the beer in bar) and use the sun on puddle to get the hook. After this I'm stuck.

Anything else we are missing?

Suggestions:
1) When access inventory via Tab button, I suggest that you add item's description while
using magnify glass on those.

2) Change the hook to a brighter color

A short game but one that shows promise!  I like the graphics, especially the animation of the slug.  If you take more time to give the screens more detail I bet it would pay off.  I agree with splat44 that you should give a description for inventory items.  It's these little details that give a game professional polish.

RoboPenguin

Yeah, I should have added descriptions for the inventory items. Forgot about that. :S

Oh and splat. That's not a sun on the counter, it's a beer mat. You've kinda solved one of the puzzles by thinking it's a sun though.

splat44

Ok,

I just solved it.

I recommend the followings RoboPenguin so further games can be improved.

1) Ensure description text is completely below inventory dialog box while using magnify on item (beer with umbrella)

You can do either thing:
A) Move entire desc text completely below Inv. dialog box
B) Make Inv. dialog box smaller so the text be competely below.

Great game.

splat44....there4s something in the glass beer that may help you.  Did anyone else find a problem with it being so dark?
