Seems really interesting.  I love the art style.   

Looking forward to playing this one.   

I just played the game again, and I found new things.   

Spoiler

Earl the ghost had already mentioned moonshine, and said I could take it.  So I went back to logbridge, and used the stick on bridge to get moonshine, and it was still there, after all these years.

Outside RitzPlex, I used control panel to ask the bot to let me in.  But instead of going in, I decided to walk left to look at newstand.  The front door closed, so I had to ask to be let in again.  The bot said 'Uhh, didn't I just open the door for you', and Prick replies 'Yeah, but I forgot to walk inside'.

That just cracks me up!

Thanks again for such a great game.

I get what you mean now, but there are a few areas like that.   

Spoiler

As soon as you get out your car, before you enter building, you can't get back in your car.

In the entrance bit, where you give up your gun, you can't leave building again.

In the lobby, like you mentioned.

A few other areas you haven't seen yet.

I guess it's just to stop you going on wild goose chase.

Which two places did you get the wood from?

Spoiler

there are three wood pieces total. The broken window, a tree, and the washer in the basement.

yes, I got the first and the last one but I tried to get from the second place you tell me cause it´s seemed obvius but couldn´t, i will try again. thanks. p.d.i don´t know how to hide my questions...

Ahem.  Did you read my post above.  I told you there how to get more wood. 
You, and 'Stucked' have the same email address, so you are obviously the same person.

I answered you here, from your comment in Completed Game Announcements.   


You are not finished in this area yet, which is why you cannot leave.

Hint 1

Spoiler

There are actually 2 robots here - Fixit bot, and Maintenence bot.  You have to deal with both of them.

[close]

Hint 2

Spoiler

Find the service panel to turn off the water, then deal with Fixit bot.  Move his chips to occupy spaces 2, 3, 4, then turn him on.

[close]

Hint 3

Spoiler

When Fixit bot has gone, you can deal with Maintence Bot.  Use data link on him to get info about residents

[close]

Hint 4

Spoiler

If you haven't done so already, try to use elevators on the left, but they are locked.  Now talk to Security bot behind the screen, and mention Googie family in Penthouse 2.  Now you can use elevators.

I hope that helps.   

Strange Visitor, it's not a bug.  You are not finished in this area yet.   

EDIT
I answered you in Hints and Tips forum - http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=34985.0

Hope that helps you   

Hey Stucked 

Spoiler

Go to screen with the well.  Hit tree on right of well a few times (you get different message from the other trees), and eventually, you will get wood.

I voted for it in the game page.   

And I have to comment on...

Spoiler

The dream scene.  That was so hilarious.  How it started out a nice dream, cos he escaped the city, then turned into nightmare.  That was some clever artwork you did there, lol.

And then his hair, when he opens the door.  I love it.   

Jex, your link doesn't really show what Lost Eden is like.   
It's a fantastic adventure game with beautiful graphics, great atmosphere, wonderful puzzles etc.

Here's a short trailer - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elxqYQ-qiqo
And here's a mini-film that shows off the graphics - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wj2wfi8f5Q4

Have you tried...

Noctropolis - http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/noctropolis
Lost Eden - http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/lost-eden

They are both excellent games, although Noctropolis doesn't work on Win Vista.

You can also find a lot of lovely adventures here  -  http://www.reloaded.org/Adventure-Games/

I just have to say... I LOVE this game!   
Ponch, you really outdid yourself.  Excellent work. 

Where do I start?
The night chickens are hilarious, and seeing Prick running from them has me in stitches. 
The fish bookclub is amusing
The whole barn scene really tugs at the heart strings.
It's really spooky when it gets dark.
And let's not forget...

Spoiler

Earl the ghost.    

[close]

His landing in Ark 19 was wonderful.

Spoiler

Cult chick in the lobby was a brilliant character. 

[close]

There are so many funny comments from the characters

I love the game control bit, with all the slidey bars.  And the Save \ Load bit with all the wee test screens. 

A wonderful game.  Thankyou Ponch.

You can get cat hair from the cat basket upstairs in the hallway.  Just pick it up.

Finished the demo.  Nice game.   

I have the same problem as everyone else when trying to make the coffee   

I click on oven, then click on inventory, then click on the kettle.  It tells me 'This doesn't work here'.  The kettle is full of water, and blue cup and coffee powder are on the board.  Help.   

Take your characters up to the top floor, and use Hunk-O-Matic (body building) machine a few times.  Then they are strong enough to open the grate.   

These pictures are amazing.   :o

Good luck with the project   

[August 12, 2008]

The game will be released on August 12, 2008.

*marks date on calendar*

Can't wait for another Ben Jordan game.   

You made this in just 3 days?   :o  I am impressed!   

Lovely wee game.  I love the graphics and the humour.  I can just imagine his southern drawl.   

Do you have any plans to extend it, and...

Spoiler

find a way to rescue the other 2 aliens

Excellent work Ben   

only by popular demand. it would probably take a day or two and all of us are working, but it might happen.

It seems that most of us want an English translation.  Is that enough demand for you then?
