Danny Dread is on Call.

STORY:

It's just typical isn't it. You're planing on having a relaxing day, maybe going to the movies or having a quiet drink at home with friends and what happens? You get called up by your boss and next thing you know you're expected at work within the next 20 minutes.

Groan, so annoying. It's even worse when your boss is an egomaniacal, mad scientist (cliche? Of course. 8)) and you promised your girlfriend that you would take her out on the town. Oh no, you know that girl is crazy.

So what do you do? Get in, get it done and get out.

Well, thats the plan anyway...

I am going to have to check this out.

Any game with an interface button for "Kick" has got to be good.

Great game. I've finished this weekend and liked a lot.

You really put a lot of effort into the animations and the music is very good too.
But then I got stuck and had to "trial and error" myself through a passage

Spoiler

balloon+key+lightning = string ?!?!

Also I would have liked to kick more things...

Anyway, your game has a lot of a mature maniac mansion game. I'm looking forward to your next title.

Thanks abstauber. I have to admit I was kinda worried about that puzzle because it was a little bit random, I tried to balance out the clues a wee bit but maybe I should of made it a bit more obvious. If I hadn't worked the puzzle out in the first place I'm pretty sure that's where I would of got stumped. :

Helme · Mon 07/12/2009 10:49:43

Nice to see that other people are not that lazy with animations than I am.
Except from the animations, the game felt okay, nothing outstanding good or bad. I'm not sure why, but the game was less funny and immersive than I expected. But thats a good premise for improvements for the next title.

It was for a good cause though.

Haven't seen any comments about this part of the game:

Anyone tried to

Spoiler

put more sheep, one by one ofcourse, in the machine when Danny's girlfriend has been caged to see these sheep metamorphose into welknown characters? Just fetch a sheep and put it in the machine and watch the metamorphose, then fetch another sheep and put it in the machine and watch the metamorphose, etc.

Nice game so far, Green Boy! I laughed right away on the title screen when he says;
"I'll be there as soon as I can."
Then proceeds to stand there and smoke a cigarette.

Scarab · Thu 10/12/2009 17:43:26

Just finished it then, very good, the artwork and animations were top notch (Is it just me, or the talking animations for short words are specifically animated to be mouthing the actual words, like when he answers his phone in the openning sequence?).
There were a few curveballs in the puzzles but the jokes made me laugh, especially the one about people not being objects.
The music was good, and half of the main song reminded me of Art of Theft and the other of RON.
All in all, short game, but very enjoyable. Looking forward to the next one.
