Who wants to live forever? (Update: New music pack released)

[Vel]

Hmmm... I dont know - it is pretty obvious on my monitor.

[scotch]

I didn't notice either.. but I still finished the game before too long, the hotspots aren't hard to find.
And while it's not as good as you probably imagine it to be I enjoyed the game

[Pet Terry]

I think this was a good game even though there wasn't very much to play in it. Backgrounds are good, I especially love the on in the park. And my music seemed to work very well How big is the difference with digital music pack? Because of my connection I didn't download it.

As for the cursor problem, I didn't read the manual, but I noticed the color change right when I first time moved the cursor over the hotspot.

All in all, you're going to right direction in game making. So I hope now Mushmuroc Castle will be even better than this

[Vel]

Thanks, scotch and petteri.
The difference between digital music and MIDi soundtrack isnt that big, but it is still better to play the game with the digital music pack installed. It just has some nice effects as cross-fading and stuff.

I've just been trying to play it for a few minutes.

+Nice choice of music.
+I like the cursor.
+I like how what they say/think is at the bottom.
+Nice font choice.
+You give the game a nice mood to it.

-I miss up/down sprites, but I know how it is.
-The type is slow, but I'm a fast reader so...(I downloaded the latest version and I cannot skip on).
-I kind of bugs me that in the first scene one character was nice and sharp and the other character looked fuzzy compared to him.

Now for questions:
How do I leave the bridge? Can I leave the bridge? The only thing I can click on is his diary and his stump. Is he confined to this sceen until something happens?

Hm. I can't really judge the game entirely because I have not finished, so I was being kind of unfair stating my opinion earlier.

[Vel]

Vale, first, you cant skip the text in the cutscenes for the music is synchronized with it.

Spoiler

Look at your diary

Totally useless comment:  Reading the title of the post, my first thought was "Holy Crap! Kikme released a game!"  

More useful comment: Downloading now

[Matt Brown]

lol rose, I was thinking the same thing

Hi Vel,
I can see you put a lot of effort in it. Scripting, dialogues, story, graphics music and atmosphere is done very very "vel"  . I did not really like the fact that the whole game consists of sequences to 85% or so and the existing puzzles are rather lame, but as you said, it's not puzzle-orientated. And since I could download it for free, I didn't mind to finish it after a few minutes (ha! I did not even get stuck at the safe ). Nice work, I am looking forward to your next projects.

[Vel]

Thanks, I was aiming at 45 minutes of gameplay.

[Gilbert]

Calm down and be cool, man.

[remixor]

What the hell?  Where'd that come from?

[Las Naranjas]

yeah, who's Gilbert telling to calm down?

[remixor]

I smell the stench of deleted post...

[foz]

I refer anyone interested to the GENERAL forums....

[Minimi]

Hey Vel, I like the game, and I can also see that you put some effort into it. I'm not saying it's the best game, because that's the uncertainty machine, but it has some nifty sides. I hope to see more work of you in the future!

And to foz : Stop acting like a jerk, and quit with the annoying spaces between every line!! And don't reply to this, foz, because we all know what you think.

[Ishmael]

I can't really say anything else then that I liked it. The plot was interesting, the graphics were original, which is a good thing and the music fit the game. After I found the safe I just blazed through the game, first try, safe open....... I like games which are not too hard. Good job, the effort put in it shows.

[foz]

VEL .....i would like to say sorry......i over reacted and my conduct was uncalled for.........

If the forum members want to ban me no problem...

[Vel]

Man, you insulted me in all possible forums, reviews and stuff. I think you should be really. sorry.
