Othello's Travelling Circus

[Atelier]

'Othello's Travelling Circus' is about a clown called Presto who travels with a circus act. Presto can't wait to get back to his trailer after the last performance and get some sleep. But, as he arrives, he finds a note stuck to his door. Cookie the Cook, Presto's best friend, has got himself into a spot of bother, and has asked him for his help.

After trying to stamp out a rat problem in the kitchens, Cookie the careless oaf has accidently mixed the rat powder with the sugar. A simple mistake to make...   What's worse, Othello the circus-master likes to have a quick cuppa before he goes to bed. A quick cuppa with plenty of sugar. Eleven heaped tea spoons to be exact.

Presto must find a way to prevent Othello from drinking his tea. However, the circus-master is quick tempered and not to be trifled with, especially since the latest performance was riddled with mistakes. Presto has to be devious in parting Othello with his beloved cup of tea. It's your job to help him.







Thank you for looking at my thread. Please tell me what you think!

The story sounds pretty original; other than Cirque de Zale, you don't see many circus adventure games!

Good luck!

Is the friendship between Presto and Cookie a big part of the story? I think male friendship is an underused theme in adventure games.

[Atelier]

No, I wouldn't say it is important. Cookie could be female and it wouldn't change the story, but the type of character Cookie is requires him to be a man, if you get what I mean  It's the greasy chef that ruins everything and Presto has to step in to save the day, and his friend's job. Are you saying it's a good thing?

This thread has just under gone a much-needed update with new graphics.

Are you saying it's a good thing? 

Yeah. I think it would be cool if in the game you explained their friendship a bit.

The graphics look simple, but nice.

Keep up the good work.
