Becalmed
By GOC Games
A sailing ship is becalmed hundreds of miles from shore. As a new and inexperienced captain, how will you encourage the wind to blow and save your crew?
A short point-and-click adventure game created in one month for MAGS July 2024 - Nature.

Looks good! But the executables seem to be corrupted, I cannot start neither winsetup.exe nor the main program
That is a damn good boat sprite. Just noticed the huge knockers on the figurehead as well haha. This looks really good.
Great work
Everything works on my side. I suggest you re-download it!

Downloaded again, this time I could start and finish it. It is a nice game with good puzzles (clear tasks, but you have to think twice how to perform them), loved it!
Glad you can finish it but according few users and I encountered bug as you probably saw in hint area of forums

Hello splat44: Seems I did not trigger this bug, just went through. Was perhaps good that I try to exhaust all dialogues to not miss a hint :smiley:
I've been busy testplaying another game, but got to this tonight, and played it straight through without encountering any bugs (other than a small graphical glitch with the lookout).
Great game! I'm amazed at the number of puzzles and all the lore you manage to cram into a game with relatively few locations and characters. It was a mix of known and unknown superstitions for me, but all well written and explained, yet not straightforward to solve at all. Also looking good. (nod)
Very fun game to play. Beautiful graphics. Inspiring puzzles. And I loved the concept! (nod)
Thank you guys at the "Hint & Tips" forums (laugh)

I'll just second that.
Cheers! :)
