Good looking so far
Reviews for "Cause & Effect (Demo)"
Potential.
I love point and click games. For the actual game, explain what each icon at the bottom of the screen is. Some of the hands pointing to areas you can visit were almost totally off screen. There's a lot of scenery considering you used actual photos, this makes it difficult to know what to click or investigate, some kind of change in the arrow to indicate something of interest would do everyone well. I'm looking forward to the actual game, and sound!

Thanks for the input, I did actually include a custom cursor to the game which changes however, the original game file was corrupt and didn't load properly stopping this feature. I've uploaded a new version which should fix this problem.
Alright for a work-in-progress
The one thing technical difficulty I had was that the hand/arrow keys & labels for actions did not show up for the first few minutes of playing, which made it rather difficult to go from one 'page' to another...
(I don't know if the problem was within the game or my computer, but I /have/ experienced problems before on newgrounds because of Firefox)
I'm guessing that trying to figure out the combination/ break the lock on the cellar is where you left off? Or have I just not figured out how to get past that part?
(I'm also presuming that any 'save game' option won't be available till the final game)
And yeah, some music for the background would probably be a good idea to add by the end.
-On a more positive note, I found the dirty old drunk's singing highly amusing.
I don't think there really is any more to say till more is added to the game, other than this has the potential to be quite interesting. (I've given it a 6/10 & a 3/5)

Up to the lock is only half of the demo, You might have got the same problem as a few others where the game wouldn't load properly. I think it should be working ok now though! Thanks!
A few major flaws
Not bad, but hey I even thought out side the box and new how to get the combo to the door, but I can't get the dam thing to work, plus it only shows the top half of the combo, but still I could not get the lock open it maybe faulty?? Or a lack of telling the player how to use the lock, so yup I gave up, nice try tho I was having fun and I am anxious to be able to get farther, but i cant figure out the lock
oPUPo responds:
The lock should be working now, there was a fault in the game file. Thanks for the input!
