Simple at least

I thought the graphics in this were really good. The only problem is that with a point and click adventure game as short as this, it is hard for me to advance that far. I can still appreciate this for having the failing medal being a good 10 points! The controls were at least pretty easy to use, especially considering you had so little to work with. I keep trying to put the coin in the slot, but when I hit "use" or whatever, nothing seems to work. This was made with good intentions and is definitley nice enough to have medals here on this site.

JackSmack responds:

To use an item you have to click on it in your inventory. If you try to use the coin slot without actually choosing the coin it won't work.

I can't really make it work with just use either because you should be able to use all the items in your inventory on any object not just the one that works.

Still I'm glad you liked the game and it is really short and I think that is actually a good thing because it's important to leave the audience wanting more.

I will be making more games like this in the future. I have several projects in my pot right now that I need to finish first, but you can count on more like this eventually.

Was really good

I like short and "simple" p'n'c games like this. My only problem is that when I get the jetski working, the game ends up going blank (well... white with a "!" in a circle in the middle).

JackSmack responds:

Wow... Um check your flash player version I guess?

Glitched medal

For whatever reason, the 'Headshot!' in-game achievement and NG medal is somewhat glitchy. I'm able to get the "...the bad news is you shot a harpoon through his head" ending, but it never registers with the game on the in-game achievements list, which in turn means no medal awarded.

I've had no problems getting all of the other achievements and medals.

Does its job pretty much perfectly

Given that this is intended to be a simple, fun little comedy game, the least you'd expect is for it to be funny - and it really is. The spaceship bit in particular made me laugh out loud, and the bloke-making-noises-into-the-micropho ne noises are a great touch; it's like something out of the Whose Line is it Anyway? sound effects game. A cheery little diversion all round, though the music does get a teeny bit annoying if you're playing it repeatedly trying to ferret out all the secrets.
