Your name is Alex. Some time ago you took a job that seemed like a dream.
But it was a scam and soon you find yourself deep into the underworld.
You are being blackmaled by a criminal named Ryan. He wants you to
steal an artifact from a mansion that appears long abandoned.
But the mansion is not so empty as you expected....

A project started mainly for testing but grew into a small horror game.

Well done Buckethead, an excellent game! Everyone should download this right now!

bicilotti

A solid, well made production which tells a story in the well know way of the "survival horrors" genre. The dialogues, sound effects and music helps to greatly enanche the level of immersion.
So, a short game worth downloading! I expect great things coming from you in the future. Keep it up, Buckethead!

Nice game. Short, simple but with a great atmosphere. Sound effects are also cool.
Another typo: statishfied. (satisfied)
And another one: on aswell (one as well)

Very nice. I enjoyed playing it.

Found a bug...  :(

The game autosaves at the critical meeting.. very good! But when you want to save a game yourself after that point, the game crashes with:

Error: Save Game Directory Overflow.

Probably because the autosave uses .099 as extension. Saving before that moment isn't a problem, unless you've played the game before and the saves were left behind....

Thanks for the nice comments!  :D
I can assure you that I didn't pay Jon nor Bicilotti to say those things  :=

eek! Errors  :o

Will look into those typos. I knew there had to be some catch when making auto saves seemed so easy lol. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to fix this?

EDIT:

I've changed the slot it saves it on "1". It seems to work just fine.

Another typo: there was a 'ran' instead of 'run' somewhere in the game. Can't remember where it was, sorry.

Buckethead

Also it would be nice if everyone could point out where they found these typos  ;)

It's not always easy tracking them down

It would probably be best if you simply ask someone else to proofread your game. There's a lot of us around with that little magnifying glass under our avatars, you know. :)

Nice little game by the way. I'll definitely check out your next project as well, even though I'm not a great fan of horror themed games.

Is this related to Limbo of the Lost?



I kid. :D

Buckethead

Ok. I'll hire a proofreader for my next project. But for this I'll try to hunt the things mentioned. But if I can't find them you will just have to live with them  :P

I'm a big horror fan so there's a big change my next game will be horror aswell. Or maybe I'll try comedy  :)

sssshhhh! It's not limbo of the lost! Nothing is ripped from Unreal!1one!  >:(

owh wait it is.  :=

But not as silly as LoL (haha that proves how much of a joke that game is )

I've used some textures from Unreal Tournament and from Harry potter 2. But I've build all the rooms myself.

Buckethead

Version 1.2 is now up.

Fixed the save game bug and a bug with some text not showing up.

Enjoy!  :)
