Would have loved to record my first impressions of your game in a commentated video but it turns out you made the game with a very old version of AGS (pre-3.0) and that doesn't support the Direct3D driver which is necessary in order to use FRAPS to record. :(

Any chance you could maybe upload a build made with AGS 3.0 or newer (projects should convert without trouble IIRC)?

I'm sorry but that is not possible. I've tried it when I was half-through with the game and it wasn't possible even than (not without a lot of work that is).

Maybe another program can record screen?

Sorry. :-[

Ah ok, damn! :p It's looking very promising.

I do have Camtasia Studio but that doesn't work with my USB microphone. I have a 'normal' musician's microphone as well but for that I don't have a stand and that means I'd have to hold it in my hand the whole time and play with the other which doesn't work out at all. :)

I had a hard time playing this game. That opening is really quite awful. I don't know how I figured out how to load the boat supplies. The hint in the book said "-bad supplies" and when I go to the computer terminal and do the text parser, it wont take the command "supplies" a listed command mind. I have to somehow understand that I had to go to the boat status screen and then type "load supplies". There is very little reason to do that, and I only did it because I felt something was wrong with the game.

The combat system didn't feel right at all. I felt very subjugated by it. I didn't feel like I knew what was going on during combat.

It's a bit frustrating to write abut the game because I really feel like nothing works at all, sorry to say, and if I where to get into it id be here all day.

I did get this by the way:
Quotein Global script (line 1917)

Error: SetActiveInventory: character doesn't have any of that inventory

Actually you should be able just to write load supplies. You don't have to go to the boat status.

Tremendous comment, thanks! If you would download the game, you would already see it has been corrected. It is just an older screenshot chaosgodkarl. ;)
