Still life's cookie making puzzle.

It was the first and hopefully last time I will call my mother in for help on a puzzle in a game.

With a lot of puzzles there will always be difficulty in it being realistic, as it's not the sort of thing we do in real life. (Unless you have puzzles like fix an engine of a broken down car, find the remote control down the back of the sofa, or make cookies)

I just cannot remember the name of the voodoo lady in Monkey Island. Can anyone remember? Think people! THINK!

If you must know Tuomas, earlier on my dad came in my room and said "You know that metal band that came on Eurovision and you said you hope they win, well guess what? They did!" and I laughed out loud.

Goodness knows what pitiful stench of an entry Britain had. I also suspect that "Lordi" are not the best that Finland has to offer either!

Dude, it's the Eurovision song contest. Who cares?

Although still, I'm glad metal beat pop. (I didn't watch any of the program except when the metal band were on and I entered the living room and thought "GWAR? Slipknot? Mushroomhead? Who the heck are they?"

PS- I didn't really think it could be Slipknot or Mushroomhead. I'm just prodding at those funny looking type of bands yo.)

.Sklate.'s animation won't load up so I don't know what they did, but I'd say the 'legs' would wobble like some kind of deformed tank. As he moves his body might bounce a little.

EDIT: Yeah, I mean like how Krysis described it.

I mostly agree with Exorph on the comments about this demo.

Especially the english, as I was laughing at some of the wordings here, surely not your intention!

The old sick man is obviously you. Maybe if you hid the forehead or put some wrinkles on it?

Last thing on my mind would be the flashing at the end. If there is flashing in your game make sure you put an epilipsey (sp?) warning in the game. Do you agree?

Great atmosphere, like-able EGOÃ,  ;) and effective sound effects.

EDIT: Oh and the music kept stuttering everytime the screen changed. Curious, in my own game I was making I had that problem but it was when a conversation started.

I suppose I should expect that from someone who cheats on a MMORPG.  :P

Is this what you mean you want?

I don't think I posted despite playing the game a while back..

I like it overall. The puzzles are simple fetch and carry, but it's cool when I see a familar character in another game! (And I laughed a few times although I've yet to complete the game)

My only real critiscm is of a personal one. I didn't like all the loud "ding!" noises the game kept making, which was far louder than the music, and when I was playing this game at late at night when people were sleeping I had to turn the volume down to compensate for the sounds and could barely hear the music then.

(Sorry I haven't read any previous posts in here and also I don't think I have been playing the most recent version.)

Mats said exactly the same thing as I was going to say, except I was going to use "broken sword" as an example of half serious/varied.

Other than that I welcome the idea, although I have little vote here as I've rated about three games since I joined. Ã, :-[

I thought of the idea of searching by forum users names, aphabetically, but you could just as easily click on their name within the forum...

This is not the Critics Lounge.

And you're not a moderator.  :P

But yes, I can see what you mean, but I really couldn't be sure if it's just the screenshots being mis-represented, or my own monitor at fault, or something else. I guess I could have PM'd deftonesrule.

(Oh and deftonesrule, here is my number: 02547.. oh I forget.  ;) Heh I love that song.)

Looking at Back to the future, you remember Marty McFly because of various reasons. His nemesis says it alot for example. "McFly!"

Or in the Matrix you have Agent Smith say "Mr. Anderson." all the time.

Yet there are films I love and still can't recall their names.

Also, I hate their motto "Challlenge everything"

It makes me want to beat that child to death with a shovel.

I won't, obviously.

AND! I hate how they ripped out the neat music in Burnout where it gets faster if you burnout and replaced it with college rock/emo licensed music.

I don't think mountain dew has been for sale in the UK for at least ten years if not longer. I miss the bitter sweet taste.

Also, why is cherry 7UP so rare to find? I lOVE that drink!

You're bitter about only getting 25$? I wouldn't have even thought you'd get any money at all! Be happy that you helped the environment. GO ON! BE HAPPY! NOW!

Does anyone else think the screenshots are a bit too dark to see anything?

(I never did like the darkness in games like Doom 3. My eyes would be watering from straining to see what's in front of me!)

I've been in a Catholic church, and the architecture was most interesting.

(See? I side step that I don't care for churches by saying something nice about (one of) them! Now is that so hard?)

Blimey! I wouldn't get that excited about it. In fact I'm not getting my hopes up at all. And those big heads in the new one... oh dear.

I think Jon Hare is involved with this project, but the develop team appears to be a different name to sensible software.

Yep, sensible soccer, Cannon Fodder (oh I'd love to hear the opening theme tune again), Sensible golf, and of course the excellent Sensible train spotting.

If only I was joking..

Didn't SWOS already have a failed remake, oh yes in 2000 I think it was on the playstation and the PC.

If you have an Xbox and live in the UK there's a demo of the new SWOS on the official Xbox magazine.

I'm also now coming to think it's geniune.

It's still a shit looking web page with "boring ass art"

It did make me realise though that with my friend drawing from photos of me for my album's artwork, whilst they are not 100% accurate and photo-realistic, having looked at these draw4u arts, I'm glad they aint. Here they look too much like photos in greyscale.

I'd show you some of what he's done of me, but they're not finished yet and I haven't fully paid him yet.

"StarTrippers across the universe!"

Is "our friend's electric" a Gary Numan reference?

I'm not into the whole hentaii yaoi whatever you wanna call it stuff, but the artwork looks so good that I might check it out anyway.
