Hi.  I don't know what to do in this game.  I've talked to two people, have a slingshot and a tooth, and I can't do anything else.

Hello!  PLEASE someone respond to this! 

I have one dollar, glow in the dark paint, and a lifesize doll of Davy Jones.  I can't figure out what to do next!!!  PLease help me!

Thank you!

HELP!!  I can't figure out how to rent a room!

Hi.  Does anyone know how to make the pepper spray more powerful?  Mika won't take it from me!

   Got it.  Thank you.   I'm an idgit.

 :'(  My brain isn't working today or something, because I just can't figure out what to do.  I have all the parts for the spell, and I can't figure out how to put them together.

UGH... I kind of had a feeling about that, and I've been trying everything.  Can I have another teensie weensie wittle hint?

To those of you who don't seem to of read my text properly, I suggest you go back and re read, as you'll see that I say the game should come with a ‘racism warning' noting that there is racism in the game (unless you are going to try and find an argument in the fact that watching a scene of KKK trying to burn a black boy, isn't showing a racist scene ?!?!?) I didn't say the author was racist (again, for those of you who seem to have trouble deciphering sentences,) I merely said I found the racist scenes offensive. It's just purely my opinion.
To the comment made by DGMcphee *Sigh* I thought this forum was for over 16 year olds ? Grow up, and if you have nothing constructive to say, don't reply to my posts â€" unintelligent remarks bore me.

I don't post much on these boards, other than to get hints, but this was something I felt I had to address.  Being a person who has fought against racism and the n-word (I refuse to even type it) for many years, you would think that I would find this game offensive.  But, in fact, I do not.  This my only be an underground adventure game, but the poignancy of the KKK scene is something real.  We should not be censored to the truth.  The KKK has committed such attrocities on the human race, that is important to show it everyone to show just how wrong they are.  In reality, the scene was very true.  Things like that really happen.  The characters in the scene are in fact racist.  But the scene is true to life.  If the game was saying something bad about black people, then I would say... yes.  Put a racist warning on it.  But it is not.  It is depicting a very true, and terrible scene.  We can't shelter ourselves from the truth. 

Another point to consider:  I am against racism in any form, but I think sometimes people take the censorship of it way to far.  It is people like Flinnt that are the reason some of the greatest films of all time are banned.  Take for example Walt Disney's Song of the South.  That film has some of the most memorable characters ever created and contains stories the people of all ages can learn from.  LIke Uncle Remus says. "Those who can't learn from a tale about critters, just don't have a ear for listenin'"  Our children are sheltered from reading about Brer Rabbit and the Tar Baby, and seeing Uncle Remus sing Zip A Dee Doo Da.  Why?  Because someone decided the film was racist, due to the fact that some of the characters speak in the dialect of the slaves in the south.  That's the way the people spoke back then.  There is nothing wrong with it.  And yet the film is banned, and Disney won't release it.   I was actually able to see a copy of the film for the first time in about 20 years, about three months ago.  Someone ordered a bootlegged copy from Europe and sent it to my dad.  There was nothing objective in it at all.

When we start sheltering ourselves from the truth, this is what happens.  There is no way to draw the line.  We would just lose too much. 

Hi.  Can anyone tell me where to find the Papyrus Roll for the levitation spell?

Thank you!

Thanks.  I'll try that!  I appreciate your response.  I'm sorry I used the wrong forum.  I just wasn't sure, because the other forums seemed more for questions on how to make the games.  I just play them. :-)

Hi everybody.  I don't know if this is the right forum to post this, but here goes....

I was wondering if there was a way to make a game play in a window instead of full screen, if there isn't an option for it in the setup.  You see, I play these games at work, because and naturally, I'm not supposed to... but I get bored. :-)  I need to be able to click off of the game fast, incase someone walks by.  It's easier to do that if I run it in a window.  But some of the games don't have that option, or they don't even have a setup file.  So is there any other way to do it? 

Thanks!

UGH!  I hate pixel hunts.   Can anybody help me?  I just can't find anything in the alley.  I've searched and searched!

Hey, I can't find the Waterfall on Journey home.... Can anyone help??

OH GEEZ... see I kept clicking on the fridge, and it just kept closing the door.  I didn't realize that I had to click INSIDE of the fridge.    

Hi.  I can't find the fork!  Can anybody help?

Jeez... how stupid am I??  I didnt even see the stairs before.

Thanks!

Hi.  I've been playing your demo, and I really like it.  I can't seem to get anywhere, but that's just because I'm retarded when it comes it adventure games, and I can never seem to figure out the obvious solutions! :-)  

Anyway, the only suggestion that I have for the game, is it seems that the background is a little too busy.  It's really difficult to see objects on the screen with all of the detail in the background.  Maybe make the objects that you need to use stand out a little more.  Or, have the cursor blink when there's something you can use.  Or, some games have words appear on the screen when you pass over something clickable.

Other than that, so far it's pretty cool.  I'm anxiously awaiting the full version!!

Hey everybody.  

I also want to let you know that it is too bad that PAWS is being so butthole-ish about this.  Your game is terrific, and had a blast playing... (well, up until I got the infamous no-walking bug, which coincendently also happened in another game, by another author, The Adventures of Fatman", and I was never able to finish that game either *sob*)  Anyway, I think your game is fabulous.

For my take on the PAWS thing... if you want to hear it. :-)  I don't think it's completely about money.  See, I've often wondered about why they shut down fan games and such.  I've always thought it was really stupid myself.  I mean, it's not like your making any money on it, and it's not like they're losing any money on it.  But last night, I was thinking about this, and I thought about something no one had mentioned before.  Now, although this is a fan-based game, and you have the giant disclaimer at the beginning.... There is a possibility that someone could play it and still associate it with PAWS.  Lets say there was something offensive in it... not that there is anything offensive in yours, but there's the possibility.  All of a sudden, people start associating PAWS with that offensive material.  Even though there is a disclaimer, it's already too late.  The word is already out there.

Ok, I hope that made sense... I'm not defending PAWS by any means.  I think it is totally ridiculous that they won't let you post the game.  I just wanted to throw that thought out there to give everybody an insight to the way this company may be thinking.  I could also be totally off base on this one!

All I have is the axe head and the rope.... can someone help me out??
