There's one really big thing in the living room you haven't looked at...

sorry I must be thick - I am in shed, I have found hotspot for light bulb, guess there must be a switch somewhere but have been a good 30 minutes trying to find it - am I supposed to be looking for an actual switch or should I be doing something with bulb?

Huh? Oh, you just dragged your cursor across the screen to find it?
I may be a sadistic designer, but not that sadistic to hide a hotspot inside a large black area!

Here's the solution:

If you look at the blue sky in the doorway, you should notice that at the right side of that blue area there's a few pixels of white / grey. That's the lightswitch.

I guess I should thank you for not giving up.
Thank you!

Do you mean the fridge? I've used every command and tried every inventory item but nothing works so what now?

No, that's the kitchen. The living room is the one with the primordial soup (HINT!) and the pram/carriage in it

I have got to maze, is there an easy way to do this as he keeps getting stuck between doors and doesn't want to walk properly - really frustrating

Solution to the maze:

Spoiler

Due to the deadline being very close the maze has been programmed very badly. The trick is to click in the middle of each cubicle and don't walk too far at once.

The path is as follows: enter at the middle, walk twice to the left, walk up, walk all the way to the right, one left, up and left.

If it's any consolation, if I were to put a maze in a game again, I'll add an option to skip it.

Thanks for your hints, have completed in - great little game.  Did come across a little bug - if you use phone a second time after speaking to God, the phone gets stuck to your ear and you develop a funny way of walking

I closed the..

Spoiler

...door from the inside of the house and now I can't get out! Help!!

Uh, but...

Spoiler

...which window? The one in the sand room says, "I cannot be opened," and I can't point to the window in the kitchen. ?

[TwinMoon]

In the kitchen, walk all the way down and a wall should pop up.
(I really should do a Deluxe version to fix these little things...)

Good luck!

[TheGuyGuy]

Okay, I spoke to someone on the phone finally... but now what? Wifey is no longer around to give me advice on what to do next, and nothing seems to have changed. Hmm.

[TheGuyGuy]

I'm sorry man, but there are some serious, serious bugs in this game. It's not to the point that it is playable for me.

Spoiler

I don't think I can complete the game at this stage since it seems like I've gotten half of the items in the game twice, the door shuts even after I wedge it, walking in the desert is a chore because he never leaves the screen from the correct place, picking up the phone twice causes a massive glitch, and a half dozen other problems. Better luck next time.
