Well, yes, he made another game. 5 Days A Stranger. I havn't downloaded it yet cos i'm at school. Get it at http://www.fullyramblomatic.com/5days or the AGS Games page.

His games are good. If he doesn't want to post here about them, then I'm glad somebody does.
Of course, now that we've got wind of it, I'm sure a witty update slagging us off in some way on his website is inevitable.

Interesting... Auhsor, any idea when he first put it up?

I'm with Eric, rode, and Scumm on this one--just play the game and enjoy it for what it is.  I think for once in the whole history of this forum we can resist bringing Yahtzee's whole biography into mention.  I'm downloading it now and I'm looking forward to it.

I've had a look at it, it's the usual great standard his games used to have.

The only annoying thing is the GUI, you have to go into the inventory screen every time you want to change from "use" to "walk" or "talk.

I just finished it after quite a few hours, Excellent game, kept me wanting to keep playing, some clever puzzles, some obvious, not the most original plot, but still an entertaining story.

Well put together, well worth playing, another great game, there's been a few good game's come out lately, I wonder if people are holding out till december to bring out the gems, I sure hope so.

I just finished it too. Its a nice game, though not as good as others.

A nice and  highly atmospheric game.  It could have used some beta testing, though.  I'm reviewing it for AG.

Looks good. Nice improvement on the shading :)
Downloading now, but won't play just.. yet :P

Anyone worked out what his alias was when he was asking for help here on this?

"Every time I think I'm out... they pull me back in!"

Is what Yahtzee would say if he were italian.

And in the mafia.

And Michael Corleone.

And in a movie.

Called the Godfather.

I always did picture Yahtzee as looking a lot like Al Pacino.

Wow, Yahtzee. That brings back memories. It's amazing how much the AGS community has changed over the past 3 to 4 years. Like roadkill said, Yahtzee does make good games.

I knew (and hope) Yahtzee would make a game again.

As always, an excellent game from Yahtzee. I really liked the animation and the atmosphere. I sure am waiting for his next game.

First I wasn't gonna post anything at all, because I knew I would write something degoratory about Yahtzee, then I read his article on Hollywood on the frontpage of his site, and I couldn't agree more, so from now on, let it be known that I hold no grudge against Yahtzee anymore.

I haven't played the game, though, so I haven't got anything to say anyway.

Finished the game last night. Very good, and well made. The interface annoyed me at first but i got used to it. Overall a good game, a little short, as in some extra puzzles could have been added to lengthen it, but yeah, it was cool.
