Sven Gordan Paranormal Parody (fangame) - MIRROR added

scourge · Mon 06/03/2006 20:29:04

Thanks for Grundislav for playing it and allowing me to release it! You are a splendid chap.

This is a fangame parody of the awesome BJ series and is based on the first one.

Afflict · Mon 06/03/2006 20:35:48

I played it and its great reminded me completely of ben jordan one hehe campfire scene was funny!

Thanks Buloght for letting me BEta test it! Yeah I got to play it first ... I think

Dig the character designs and backgrounds. Nice work.

scourge · Tue 07/03/2006 00:35:04

Yes you were the first Afflict

Thanks progz, that means a lot to me coming from you

Mugs · Tue 07/03/2006 04:23:41

Great game!Ã,Â The puzzles were basically the same as in BJ, but the humour is what makes it a completely new game!

Thumbs up!

edmundito · Tue 07/03/2006 06:11:59

Man, I wish I had the strength to make such a parody. All I did was photoshop Grundi's artwork.

splat44 · Tue 07/03/2006 07:47:31

Ok, I have downloaded it.

Not to be off topic, I hope that Grundislav is doing some thing with latest BJ!

Many have been for it.

Fisher · Tue 07/03/2006 14:23:17

This was really fun (and short!) I LOVE the Ben Jordan games and you did a really good parody. Thanks for making this!!!

Keep 'em comin'!

Abisso · Tue 07/03/2006 14:30:49

Wow, I think this is the first time ever for an indipendent free game to have not one, but two parodies! This is a more "serious" one, the other was a pure joke, the last April Fools if I remember correctly (Ben Jordan: Paranormal Warrior Within)!

You demonstrated again how resourceful and talentuous (is it even an english word?) you are, Buloght. Congrats.

Peder 🚀 · Tue 07/03/2006 16:18:18

I downloaded the file, but I cant open it

Gets the error message:
"Cannot open file: it does not appear to be a valig archive.
If you downloaded this file, try downloading the file again."

I have tried downloading MANY times etc...

Guest · Tue 07/03/2006 18:34:38

The screenshot looks awesome,
but i cannot download it.
I get this "Server not found" thing

scourge · Tue 07/03/2006 19:27:02

Thanks for replies, haha yeah BJ deserves a couple of fangames

Thanks for playing.

It's not downloading because the server is down because the entire town's power is down (i'm in a neigbouring town). It should be back in a couple of hours. Darn the power people, they've been giving us trouble for more than a month switching it on and off whenever they like, it's cause they're installing something. Sorry

What about my problem?

.
I managed to download it but I never got the file to work.

Nikolas · Tue 07/03/2006 20:03:11

Peder, it's working fine for me...

BTW, finished it! A very crafty game. Good use of simplistic graphics.

Well done Buloght. And I voted

scourge · Tue 07/03/2006 20:08:26

Thanks nikolas

Peder: I think it's because you were still downloading when the power went down, I'm getting a mirror from Afflict, if he checks his PM haha

Sorry for inconvenience. I'm checking out your game

Peder 🚀 · Tue 07/03/2006 20:21:27

man, I downloaded earlier today, also downloaded it from here:
http://aafiles.bicycle-for-slugs.org/

scourge · Tue 07/03/2006 20:25:26

oh, sorry. It's probable that the version there was also downloaded while the power went down, it's happened to me and then the game is corrupted. Really sorry for inconvenience. Those power people i tell you.

DoorKnobHandle · Tue 07/03/2006 20:28:26

I didn't play the original title yet, but I loved your work, buloght, very impressive. Your graphic style is very effective (not over-complicated but still quite detailled and just overall beautiful). The puzzles were a tad bit cliche, but still fun. Keep it up!

Mordalles · Tue 07/03/2006 20:54:32

hehe, great game, buloght.

dkh, the puzzles were the same as the original.

scourge · Tue 07/03/2006 20:58:15

Thanks dkh!Ã,Â Ã,Â

and Mordalles

Well, i loved he original's puzzles.
What i did was make a parody, thus changing names, alter story, new dialoque, new graphics and interface, thereby creating (hopefully) a different playthrough of the same game in a what-if scenario. Or something like that, honouring the BJ series

DoorKnobHandle · Tue 07/03/2006 21:02:42

What I meant with cliche wasn't necessarly negative all the way. Just that "make-somebody-look-away-and-grab-something"-puzlle is a little overused in my opinion. This is of course not your fault, buloght, as you took the puzzles from the original. Those puzzles have another advantage: I could solve them!

scourge · Tue 07/03/2006 23:56:09

My guess is the server will be back online tomorrow morning (in about 6 hours) again (after the dude in charge restarts it) due to the power failure. I'll EDIT this post if it's back on

.

dkh: I understand

I think Grundislav presented the puzzles much better than me though since after all it's his and he understands exactly what he wants with them. So play the originalÃ,Â

[EDIT]: Server's still not back on, i'll check in again in a few hours. BTW, it's a uni server and the entire uni has lost power. But it's usually only for a few hours (happened a couple of times in the last two months due to the power people installing a new generator or something)

[EDIT] MIRROR

splat44 · Wed 08/03/2006 07:59:15

I've downloaded yesterday and I did managed to complete it.

Are planning a sequel?

Guest · Wed 08/03/2006 11:04:13

Have downloaded both versions today (the download link and the mirror)
The game seems to be excellent, but the only thing I can do is walking around.
The cursor won't change to "look, talk"..etc.

With a click on the right mouse button I only get the inventory.

Sure I'm doing something wrong

Guest · Wed 08/03/2006 11:07:12

Huiiiii, don't worry, just figured it out

Peder 🚀 · Wed 08/03/2006 12:02:27

I downloaded off the mirror and it worked now!

Great game!

Petra · Wed 08/03/2006 16:19:39

WOW, another proof of bulought's exceptional talents!!

Your sense of humour made this a completly new game!

Once again, thumbs up!
I liked it very much!!

Petra

scourge · Wed 08/03/2006 20:29:52

Thanks petra.

Splat44, i don't think i'm gonna do any of the other Ben Jordan games. I'm sticking to my own original projects for now
