Hi Sandra,
Congrats on a new release. The mechanics are well oiled and the banter is funny.
I got a blocking bug:

I'm not far from retrieving a fluffy bunny (I think). I convinced the guy that I'm one of the

I made him leave for the second time but he won't come back.

Pet shop, assuming you're one of the employees.
Quote* a _huge_ teddy bear?
My niece has one that's even bigger :P

Didn't realize there was so much love & death in this game. I must be blind.
That's odd, I thought I had crushed that bug.
Can you send me a PM with your saved game? Or with what you have done and have in inventory?
I'll take a look at the code in the mean time.
Edit: Okay, I figured out why that happened. I'll try and fix it without breaking the save game.
I also spotted other stuff I thought I had fixed and polish I forgot to add a Game.DoOnceOnly.... no big deal, but I'll wait to do those fixes for after MAGS voting is over. I'll soon (I hope return herr with a fixed version).
Edit 2: I have fixed and replaced the file. You can now download a fixed version. If you have a saved game, you can continue the game. (nod) Even if you saved where you were stuck, the Guy should be back or return when you load.

Yes, that's correct (establishing continuity to Ice in the Air (https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/games/game/2267-ice-in-the-air/)). (nod)

Not counting Charly...but you're not all wrong. ;)

It's not the one on the counter. (It's not a hotspot.)

Admittedly, I'm stretching a bit, so it depends on what you read into it. True love especially is up for debate. :-D
Hope you enjoy the game!
