The Oracle - FINISHED!!!

[Eugene]

I just tested the download link, and it's working okay.

[Dualnames]

I had no trouble with it as well..

Ok, now it is working for me 

[Monsieur OUXX]

It doesn't work for me : blank page when I click on the link, and saving a "game.php" file when I save the link target.

[auriond]

I hope Eugene doesn't mind, but I mirrored the file. For those who can't get the original link to work, try TheOracle11.zip ?

[grydwrd]

Thanks auriond, I finally was able to download the game. The original mediafire site never worked for me; I actually never saw the download button at the bottom where it's supposed to be. Let's hear it for SIMPLE download procedures--like "click it and get a zip file."

[Galen]

DTA downloaded the php file aswell, worked with normal download though (I use DTA on large files as I can resume them if they time out, which they do).

Eugene,

I couldn't help but notice in the screenshots you provided of your adventure game a Canada Post building.

Might I ask you where you shot the scenes for your adventure game?? And I appologize if somebody already asked you this question.

Take care!

Excellent game, I thoroughly enjoyed, thankyou

I did find a little bug though

Spoiler

After you have made the hookshot-cannon thing and fired it up to the metal bar on the beach, you can go back to the hut and pick up another lighter and bottle of pills.

Very interesting game.

Hi Marc, the post office was photographed in the small Ontario town of Tottenham.

Eugene,
  Great game.  Also added a new twist when I realized I'd been to many of the places in the game during a visit to Portugal!

[CSHeath]

Hey Eugene, thanks for a wonderful game! Was fun and challenging and had a really lovely plot. I am not ashamed to admit I played through in one sitting, and will probably make this one of the games I go to and relax (the one time having the memory capacity of a goldfish works to my advantage ) on a regular basis.

Thank you!

[onthebrink]

we need more games like this!!!

[musicMan]

that telescope screenshot reminds me of Myst III:Exile.....  dunno why.....

[jfritzyb]

I know it's been over 120 days but I had to ask Eugene a question...

I've gotten the radio and know what I need to do in order to use it properly; but when I try to put my radio away after having succeeded in talking the guard out of the tower, the computer refuses to let me put it away!

(I think part of the reason is  because I got the lighter again after I made the rope cannon and the computer somehow is looping back to the previous coded commands for obtaining the rope cannon, leaving me stuck in limbo at the tower).

Any thoughts?

[jfritzyb]

Well...that was totally weird.

I reloaded the game and it let me put the radio away.

Sorry about all that.

*Edit*: Awesome game, man! Whether you do the sequel or not, keep 'em coming!
