Topic: Ben Chandler: Paranormal Investigator! (Bake Sale)

[Grundislav]

(To the tune of Waltzing Matilda)

In West Australia, near the town of Doodlakine,
Lived young Ben Chandler, a good man was he,
And he kept all his candy, in a little metal tin,
Ben Chandler's Sweets Tin was something to see

Oh no! Ben's sweets tin has gone missing! How will he ever enjoy life without his delicious candy?!

This is where you, the player, come in. Guide young Ben Chandler (aka Ben304) through the wild and rugged Australian wilderness as he goes searching for his beloved tin.  Who knows, he might even encounter some paranormal phenomena along the way.

Funny, I live near Minge Patersons farm.

Might be just me, but when I click on the link to pay and it tells me about Wadjeteye, it wont load me to that payment section. Might be just my crappy computer or it might not be working.

Just thought I would give you guys a heads up.

I'm enjoying this game sooo much it is almost unreal!

Just wanted to let you know that

After making the Bar Patron fall asleep by playing the accordion I can still talk to him...

Brilliant job Grundislav, loved every second. The puzzles were just right. I'm repeating myself, i dropped some praise in the BakeSale thread.

A very funny game!

I really enjoyed this documentary, it's great to see how Ben Chandler behaves in his natural habitat, very enlightening!

Also kudos to Calin for being such good sport.

Sorry to bump the thread, but in case anyone is interested, I've uploaded the game's soundtrack.

Try getting the theme out of your head now!

[ThreeOhFour]

I finally got that song out of my head last week after it had been in there for months, and you go and do this?

Perfect.

[Mati256]

This is crazy but I watched Wham's "Lets play" last week and was singing the theme just yesterday.
Thank you Grundi!

Any chance of making this game publicly available for those of us who foolishly missed the Bake Sale?

Official AGS Bake Sale policy is that all games remain exclusive to the Bake Sale Bundle for one year after the end of the event. That way, people who forked out cash for the games get to have exciting "exclusive-y" access to them for a full year. After that, the rights to the games revert back to the individual game creators. At that point, they can choose to release them to the interwebs for free if they want to.

Hopefully when March 2013 rolls around, Grundy will release this gem of a game to the world so that those that missed out on our fundraiser can see what they missed.
