I appriciate that.

It gives the developers the chance to offer their games some days earlier and can use the feedback to improve their games before the deadline. It can help to improve the average quality of the entries, so it's a very good idea.

Is there someone that has finished my game? :'(

SinSin · Sat 27/02/2010 19:45:37

The same question

I'm trying to do it now... but find it difficult.

Wyz · Sat 27/02/2010 20:01:55

I'm stuck at the ingredient mixing puzzle

-=Lisa=- · Sat 27/02/2010 20:21:07

This odd feeling:
Im kinda stuck right at the beginning.. been all around town and talked to everyone but i cant really figure out what to do.

Secret of chunky salsa:
Also stuck at the mixing puzzle.

You need to play a card

Spoiler

talk to the fruits and vegetables guy about the weather, there should be a hint in that conversation.

Ah, I knew it would be the stumbling block of the game...

First,

Spoiler

I can advice you to use common sense and find out which ingredients are completely out of question...
One of cooks is always giving you the right information, and one of the others is almost always lying.

Second,

Spoiler

Try to google the actual Chunky Salsa recipe

There was some implication for it in the elder's speech.

[close]

Third (warning! solution ahead!)

Spoiler

You need to use everything but mushrooms, alcohol, cereals, laminaria, and beans

Wyz · Sat 27/02/2010 21:41:00

Spoiler

ah, the lying part is what put me in the wrong direction

[close]

got it!

Spoiler

nice game, really liked the last puzzle

The town endings are a bit weird, but I happen to like weird

Jakerpot · Sun 28/02/2010 06:15:37

Wyz, in your game there is anything to do after talking to the vident? I can't really get it. Also, why is it that bright?

I got stuck in my own game, so call me n00b if you want xD

Is our game the easiest entry??

OBS: It wasn't me who made the puzzles

Congrats to tzachs and Jakerpot! and their entry:
The Quest for the Holy Salsa!!

Congrats to all the other entries too!!

Tzachs I've PMed you.

Vukul · Sun 28/02/2010 08:07:48

Congratulations to tzachs!

Well, seems, I've lost any opportunity to get any comment on my game except Wyz's (I'll give you feedback after I finish your entry)... But let me now, is there anybody else who played and finished??

-=Lisa=- · Sun 28/02/2010 08:49:42

Secret of Chunky Salsa quick feedback:
Finished it yesterday night. Generally i liked it! Nice story. Not too hard (only thing i got stuck on was the mixing puzzle). Loved the "old" hero character. Would have liked to see more of the mustachers village. Nice twist with the endings (tried both

).

Odd feeling:
Right now im stuck on fixing the fence.

And gratz to Tzachs! Havn't started playing your entry yet though.

Oh, and hi everyone! Im kinda new here.. been lurking around for a month now..

tzachs · Sun 28/02/2010 10:17:03

Yipee!!

Thanks guys!
Coming up with guidelines...

PS: I still haven't played Vukul and Wyz's entries, but I'm planning to do it today, so Vukul, expect a PM containing some feedback today (unless you'll open a thread for your game, then I'll write my feedback there)...

Jakerpot · Sun 28/02/2010 16:58:56

Yuuuuuuuupieee!!!!

The first game i had ever made is a prize winner one

Thank you so much guys, but has anyone voted in it excluding me & tzachs??

Vukul · Sun 28/02/2010 17:36:22

And have you voted for yourselves?

Really, I was surprised to see the voting ended so early... though it was mentioned aforehead

Still, I didn't want to cast my vote before finishing all entries (how, btw, tzachs voted without playing my and Wyz's entries?

)... and in the end didn't manage to do it.

Bulbapuck · Sun 28/02/2010 19:03:37

yeah, it's a shame that february is only 28 days, I've almost finished the games and I'm enjoying them

But I couldn't vote since I hadn't finished them, of course.

Wyz · Sun 28/02/2010 19:36:24

I wonder who has

It is a precondition you played them for voting. I wonder how many have done.

I didn't vote, the contest ended really fast, much sooner than I anticipated. I'm only now starting to play the games... And then I have to play discordance game from the last mags, which I still didn't get round to play yet.. And then I still have to play like 50% of the nominated games for the awards which I also didn't play yet...

Oh, life is hard...

discordance · Sun 28/02/2010 21:57:27

Wow, that was quick, I barely had a chance to start on those games! Ah well...
