I don't think creators of games should answer questions about their own games, but I'll answer this since it's a MAGS game.

Hint:
Spoiler
What's the one thing the bunny told you she hasn't got (anymore)?
[close]

Another hint:
Spoiler
You'll have to travel across the map to another location to get it.
[close]


More obvious:
Spoiler
At this stage of the game, you probably have coffeebeans. Have you found a place where you can get the beans grinded?
[close]

Giveaway:
Spoiler

The bunny will trade you the glue for the coffeepowder.
[close]

Glad to hear you're enjoying the game!

Hi Stefan,

I'm enjoying your game so far, but I'm hoping you can give me a hint too.

Spoiler
I put the wolf to sleep, but I still can't inside the gate.  Talking to the pole outside, it says I need to arm myself before I can go in.  All I have in my inventory is the flower pot filled with water, coffee beans, and a fork.  I've tried to use the fork but getting nowhere with that strategy.  I can't travel to the left since I don't have any feet yet.  The wizard won't help since I can't find anything to grind the beans with to make coffee.

I'll give you a hint, since this a fairly illogical puzzle:

Spoiler
Talk to the wizard. He'll help you.
[close]

grtz,
Stefan

Okay, I did what you said and...

Spoiler
The wizard turned me into big snake so I could get past gate.  While there, I snagged stocking and then left before the rabbits got to me.  Once back outside I turned small again.  I've tried to do everything to move on in the game but it's just not clicking for me.

Hm. I won't give this away. There is a certain rock which will give you a clue. Anyway, he should give you a clue.

lakerz

Thanks Stefan!  Heh, I can't remember the last time I've been so frustrated making coffee.  ;D

This is a very funny game - I think it's a great idea to make a player character without hands. However, there are a few things I don't know how to do...
Spoiler
How do I get the superlemon? How do I make the beans into powder? And why is that stone giant there? If I could just get a hint or two...

Simply "use" the lake at the place where the game starts. The bucket of water is for something else.

talk to the rock giant, and then you have to pick up the grinded beans once he lifts the hammer. it takes a few tries, since your timing has to be spot on.

ho do i . . .
Spoiler

get the superlemon? and what is the glue for? i thought it was for glueing the ball to the tray or something, but not?

Whoops! Sorry for not replying, I completely overlooked the hints section. But Mordalles has kindly awoken me from my temporary slumber.

My game does have a few hard puzzles, this is probably due to my twisted sense of imaginationÃ,  ;)Ã,  So a long post explaining some things seems to be in place.

The grinded beans puzzle is a bit cruel on all you pure adventure lovers, being all time-related and stuff, so I'll explain it:
Spoiler
After you talk to the rock giant, he lifts up his hammer. You have to select the beans VERY FAST and click on the shadow under the hammer.
When you talk to him again, you might notice some crumbs under his hammer when he picks it up.
To get them is tricky: You'll have to talk to the giant and click on the spot under his hammer just BEFORE he picks up his hammer, since the verb coin takes 30 seconds to appear (this is the really cruel bit).
[close]
Some background: The giant was meant to talk, but I ran out of time, so now he's only a grumpy staring statue. Will he return in another game to tell his story? Who knows...


Getting the superlemon:

Vague hint:
Spoiler
You'll have to distract both snakes, but can only place one bean...
[close]

Better hint:
Spoiler
Glue some beans together.
[close]

Real spoiler:
Spoiler
When both snakes are checking out those beans, get the lemon. (you'll have to stand close)
[close]

Good luck! (hope my silence didn't influence the votingÃ,  ;) )
Stefan

Mordalles

Spoiler

A real good funny game! Love it! But I was stuck quite some time.
Mordalles
Spoiler
You have to combine the fork with it.
[close]

The biggest problem I had after....
Spoiler
you can't combine the coffee bits and pieces in your inventory :(
[close]
Spoiler
Go to the blue cup instead!
[close]

One bug though. I picked up the button in the beginning and right clicked straight away - it disappeared, I had to start again. But otherwise... *COOL*

xtine

ok.. I'm stuck at the beginning  :'( 

[hint]how do i get into the gate? I've got 65 points, talked to everyone. I have a pot full of watter, a fork and beans to the N power. I know from reading here that the wolf should be put to sleep but how do I do it?[/hint]

please help. Thanks

Spoiler
there are two plants you need.
[close]

[close]

Hm. That didn't work, did it? Try the old spiked-tobacco-trick.

Thanks! If this wasn't a MAGS game, I'd have more time to put some more story in it, making it clearer what you're supposed to do next.

Hm, I can't reproduce this. So I can't fix it! Anyone else have this problem?

Grtz,
Stefan.

xtine

thank you for the hints this is reallya good game with weird but good puzzles :)

umm..
Spoiler
I got the stocking and talked to the bunny. I took geo for a walk to the two winged snakes and got the coffee maker but I am not able to click or do anything to the big stone like thing on the map. Is that supposed to be the giant rock person who will grind my beans? How do I get to him? I can't click, walk, talk or use it.
