I'm stuck at Tauno

Spoiler
I was able to get beer and coffee with the hint above, but I don't have enough money to pay for the coffee. I don't have enough cans to return them.

Updated with the demo! Enjoy it!

I wouldn't say my way is particularly novel or well thought out. I just have it broken into sections - a summary of the setting, a summary of the characters, a summary of the core game mechanics broken down by section, how they work and the rules around them, and then just a large section with the whole game plot broken down into acts, with the characters, mechanics and such written out. In sections where the gameplay is non linear that is just mentioned in text, for more linear sections it is just written out in order!

Encountered something that seems a problem : while running my game through the editor, I double clicked on a listbox that had no onclick function related, and while editor was displaying an error message saying "you can't modify the script while the game is running", a new onclick function appeared in my global script, related to that listbox.

Not a BIG problem, even if then, when I closed the game, and tried to save my project, it said "the global script has been modified externally, do you want to reload it ?". It didn't damage anything. Perhaps it's just a thing that should be reworked so the script is really locked while the editor launches the game ?

Last thing, about fonts : is it planned to be able to just import 1 font, and manipulate that font in the editor and in the game too using scripts ? Like changing its size, perhaps its style too (bold, italic etc...). It could be so convenient... But perhaps it's too complicate for now to have things working like that.

EDIT : sorry I forgot to say I'm using the last build (4.00.00.18)

OGG GAME MUSIC MEGA PACK - OVER 1400 TRACKS (AND GROWING)
https://soundimage.gumroad.com/l/ylyre

My Mega Pack contains over 1400 music tracks (and growing!) in higher-quality Ogg format. Great for video games, films, podcasts and more. This is a bundle of my genre music packs:

Fantasy | Sci-Fi | Funny/Quirky/Weird | Puzzle | Chiptunes | Action | Dark / Ominous | Horror / Surreal | Misc

These tracks sound almost as good as my original WAV recordings, but are much smaller in file size. Perfect for video games. Ogg tracks also loop better in game engines than Mp3 format.

The Pack that Grows with You

I add new music all the time, plus Gumroad allows me to send users updates so you can download my newest tracks as I release them.  Enjoy!  :-)

Good post! How did you structure your design document, if you don't mind sharing? Describing mechanics, setting, story, characters, and puzzles sounds like a lot to organize, so I'm curious how you went about that.

Exciting update for this month, friends, as I've actually gone and written this game! Now onto production :) Got some thoughts about it in the usual spot.

Hey thanks for giving it a try, I'm glad you enjoyed it  :-D  Yeah that's as far as the demo goes, a message should have popped up to say so?
