Ispace,

Sorry, but I couldn't pick up the metal pole until I worked out the puzzle properly (Reggie ends up giving it to you, there shouldn't be such command as "pick up metal bar"). Also, it came up as a metal pole on my inventory. I don't know what's exactly wrong, but it doesn't seem like a bug to me. Could you specify a bit more?

P.S. One thing I have found is that sometimes when the game loads, it "forgets" about stuff, and the when you load it again it works fine. Has anyone had that problem? Would you mind checking for me if re-starting the game again you get the same problem?

I haven't freed Reggie from the curse yet. I can use the command "pick up metal bar" and after I do, Al says "I can't reach the key with my bare hands". It's at this point where it disappears and the mint pops up in my inventory ( I can't scroll down in the inventory to see if it is there). I've tried saving the game then restarting to see if it appears but it doesn't and the mint is still there.

Also, at the same location if I try "use door" Al says it is open now but I can't get in.

I have in my inventory (before picking up metal bar) the kangaroo, broken glass, half string, other half string, Blues Bother cd, stick with string, HOF ticket.

Since my last post I have moved on and I am almost finished (I think). Thought you would like to know that up until I actually solved the puzzle dealing with Reggie I was able to pick up the metal pole and only the mint would appear in inventory. Course once the puzzle was solved properly the metal bar appeared and stayed in my inventory.

Nice gesture, but that's not a valid internet IP address, it's a local LAN address specific to your network, so nobody apart from you can connect to it

Esseb accessed it, but sunday was the last day I could run it, since it was on my brother's computer. Can someone else do it?

Metal bar bug fixed.

I've uploaded the zip file again.

Of course, you could finish the game even with the bug by practising a bit of self control and not picking up the metal bar just like that...

Spanish version of NIAR coming up very soon.

aussie · Mon 26/05/2003 19:25:20

Spanish version stalled til I find Spanish .sci fonts. The ones I made give me trouble.

Awesome game!
Congratulations an thanks a lot!

aussie · Tue 27/05/2003 07:16:40

That's ok.

aussie · Wed 28/05/2003 15:44:06

Spanish version well underway.

Thanks Proskrito for your support.

aussie · Wed 28/05/2003 18:14:25

Spanish version released.

A few mistakes to be expected.

aussie · Thu 29/05/2003 07:17:18

Not a bad idea...

aussie · Thu 29/05/2003 07:35:32

Spanish version won't be up on the net til freewebs allows me to upload it (I'm moving websites). 8)

A new NIAR version is up.

A number of minor bugs (such as Balboa appearing momentarily in the foyer) have been fixed.

Just started playing your game yesterday, and it sure looks great! The graphics are terrific.
Although when I looked at the ticket salesman in the booth, the game crashed. Better fix that one if you haven't already...

And when you click on "Ver" on the menu, it still says "Night Of The Raving Feminst"...

Great job anyway!

aussie · Fri 30/05/2003 13:42:50

Thanks, I'll have a look at that salesman bug.

The ver bug is already fixed, up & running.

Thanks again.

In our quest for extra bandwidth, AussieSoftTM has officially moved to a new website.

http://www.freewebs.com/aussiesoft/

Let's hope this is better than geoshitties.

aussie · Mon 02/06/2003 08:22:03

By the way, Spanish version of NIAR is finally up and running (there are a few spelling mistakes, I believe, but that shouldn't take away too much).

aussie · Wed 18/06/2003 10:41:38

Just added a walkthrough to my website.

Heya,

Just downloaded it and played for a bit. I like what I see so far - great cartoony graphics and animation. The only problem I have is that there's too much self referencial humor. I.e., lots of "Hey look! I'm in an adventure game! Yuk Yuk" types of jokes. But the game is certainly more entertaining than most so I'll definitely be playing it more.
