edit:
New Download. Version 1.11. Pressing [Ctrl] + [P] to show extra-score GUI.
It looks great! :D ;D
I'll give it a try...and edit this post later.
EDIT:
It was VERY fun from beginning to end, Im waiting for more ;D
The only "negative" thing I could find, is the animations, the first moment I saw the game in action I thought "great graphics" but when I saw the walkcycle it was a bit of a letdown. Everything else is very good.
Looks great.. ill give it a shot when i get time :D
It looks very well made! One of those underground games that suddently come out of the darkness! YAY for that!
I just downloaded the game and will post again later, since this is what all posters here seem to be doing. ;D No, really I will...
(Could you find alternative hosting, 3 pop-ups? 3? But then again it's fast and I did get the game. Makes sense after all...)
Looks very good! Downloading now.
How do you download this game?
Read the first post, there's a link towards the bottom.
Screenies look great! Downloading now...........
The file doesn't seem to be there anymore. I get an error when I try to download that says that the file doesn't exist on their server.

I just downloaded it not two seconds ago.
I've played the game, and it looks *really* good. Animation is sweet, I love the cursors.
Only problem is, all the dialogue is in German and despite four years of lessons at school, I'm not too hot on it nowadays!EDIT: Ahhhh! So that's how you change the language!!!It's also very difficult to quit. Through trial and error the only way I managed it was to hit "F11" for "Restart? Y/N" which mercifully took me back to the main menu where I was able to press "Quit". Some option in-game would be nice. As would some kind of indication of how to reach the save, load and restart screens without the user having to try every F key in desperation!
not hard to quit. just click the PDA and click quit.
game is nice, few spelling errors but no biggie.
I'm stuck but what else is new. lol

What PDA? :-\
Really good game. Graphics are fantastic. What does the extra score at the end mean? If it's not 100 percent, that means I didn't do something?
PDA is at the top left of the screen.
Hi there,
thanks for downloading and playing my game.
there are some key codes for the game options:
F1 . . . Info
F5 . . . Save
F7 . . . Restore
F9 . . . Restart
Space . . . Pause
[Ctrl] + Q / [Ctrl] + C . . . Quit
Sorry for that, but these things are described in the german manual. I hadn't time to translate it.
You can do things not really essential for ending the game and then you get extra score.
I liked the style of this game. Nice little plot, good style of puzzles and graphics. Puzzles' difficulty level is just about right. Nice dialogue with the computer. I especially liked the inventory gizmo. Nice map too and I loved the easter eggs such as
Spoiler
the Sam & Max and DOTT dolls in the closet and the computer playing Pong
I certainly enjoyed the game and will be waiting for the sequel (hopefully sequels). Hopefully they will be longer too. The end leaves you wanting to see how it continues (people who didn't finish the game, don't read the hidden text)
Spoiler
so the clone is evil huh
Things that should change:
1) English should always be the default language. The majority of the people who download your game don't speak German, but they all speak English. Thus the installer should be in English - it's not hard to use even in german, but it's friendlier - and more importantly the default language of the game should be English. It's really annoying to start a game then have to quit it and run setup and choose English. Since most people will want to play it in English that should be the default language.
2) The English translation was fairly good but there were some really embrassing mistakes in it. You should use someone who's excellent in English to proof read your text.

OK, I played it again. The PDA is only in the top left when you pick it up. I didn't pick it up the first time, so hence couldn't use it.

I agree. There's some quite obvious mistakes. Not bad for someone who doesn't speak English as their first language though.
first rule of adventure games
pick everything up!

Not if you get into the game, realise everything is in German and then try and quit out to change the language!
Personally, I'm not going to pick anything up until I'm in my native language and can understand what's happening. Clicking through the dialogue with the computer was especially frustrating since I had no way of knowing which option to click on.
Once I got it into English, I found it to be a really good game. It's just the German that threw me.
You have put together a good looking game!
I am still playing it :P.

To each his own grasshopper.
very nice game, just finished it, tho i git stuck with
Spoiler
greasing the toolbox
a lil short, id rather you released all chapters in 1 game. It was kind of a let down for it to finish so quick.
See the first post.
New version is aviable. Download host without pop-ups.
It's a corrected English version made by Hudders. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks.
Nice game - stylish graphics, cool concept, especially the placing yourself in the PDA (reminds me of a certain puzzle in the second Apprentice).
Puzzles all made perfect sense (+ points for that).
Looking forward to seeing some more stuff from you.
(Oh, and I liked the little game of pong on that computer screen in the last scene)
Awesome game, can't wait for part 2. ;D
Beautiful, elegant graphics; puzzles pitched at the right level; and a fun, original storyline. Please, please, please add it to "Recently added games" so that we can all vote on it!
PS: I'm sure someone must have asked this somewhere before, but I can't find it anywhere: how do you nominate a game to be pick of the month? This one deserves to be July's.

I've been looking for something like that too (for months) because I wanted to nominate "Nelly Cootalot". I'll immediately second "Trevor Daison" as well - it's a great game, with hilarious cutscenes and dialogues and great graphics.
Wonderful game - logical (very unusual), which meant that I didn't have to use a walkthrough or similar but to think about what needed to be done and to look around and get all the stufff built-in, this is something I miss in other games.
I'll be waiting for the next part.
Well done!
Great, thanks for adding it to Recently Added Games - I'm off to give the first review!
OK, review written.
I've posted a thread asking how to nominate Picks of the Month:
http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=31564.new#new
Hopefully someone will tell us (even if it's just "You can't - X does it").
OK, I've had a reply, and it's "You can't, SSH chooses them."
I wouldn't dream of suggesting a mass bombardment of SSH's message box (which has a link to it at http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?action=profile;u=668 should you need it for any reason) with requests to make "Trevor Daison in Outer Space" the next Pick of the Month. If that were to happen, I couldn't possibly condone it. :)
Knoodn, how do you get 100%?
Just one question, as it says 'Chapter one', does it mean that it's the first chapter of a full game, or that it's just like KQ1 (the first of many games). I hate to start an adventure and only to find out that it doesn't have a conclusion..
Hey folks,
thanks again for playing this game.
for me it's very simple to get 100%, because I know what to do ;D.
But also you can get up to 200% :P.
just do a lot of little things ???.
Yes, this is the first chapter of a full game. I've planed five chapters. a big FATAL story.
I'm working on chapter two right now.
Can we have just a tiny hint, please? :-[
tiny hints:
-pick up everything
-talk with everybody/everything
-try to use everything with everything
-try to interact with everything
-pick up everything again
that's all . . .
My God... Trevor Daison looks just like my science teacher, Mr. Windsor... o_O;

Thank you for the link, and I already PM'd him, and I offered my help.
I am learning with AGS engine, so I can make my first game called "CSI: The Newbie Factor"
hey very nice game. well thought out and excellent graphics, however the only crit I have is the lack of music, leaving some parts (eg, the intro) feeling unfinished. otherwise, one of the best games of this year!
cosmicr:
Thank you. Yes I know this with the music. I'm not the best musican so I decided to make just these forbidden-planet-like backround sound. But you are right the intro could need a good theme. I'll do this the next chapters.

Going to play the game now.
Edit : This game was pretty cool. I enjoyed it looking forward to the sequel.
The download link isn't working for me. Anyone else have this problem? Is there a mirror somewhere?
Yeah link isnt working, I'd be happy to mirror it if anyone has the original file
I wish I downloaded this when I had the chance to. It looks good.
Edit: I just downloaded and completed it :D Great game and nice humor. Can't wait for chapter 2! Oh I only got 71% extra score so I might need to replay this later on this week.
Sorry guys, had a lot to work last days.
