That article says "no appeal is allowed against the judgement" though...

Sorry! And good luck - did you try the demo? I think it works on Parallels, but not sure about Crossover... SuperDouche, I pm'ed you...

Over the credits?

Thanks Noyb! We can't recreate that bug of yours at all, so I think it must have been a weird one off. Let's just think of it as a paradox...

Lumme, that's a compliment and a half! Thanks SSD! Thanks for the bugs. That last one was found just recently and should be fixed in the latest build - I know that's not much comfort to you now you've played through it! The second one is bizarre and new! It is frustrating to have these bugs found after we've released, but unfortunately we can't afford to employ proper full-time playtesters. And, hey, we're still less buggy than a Bioware release!

Glad you're enjoying it Noyb! That error has actually been fixed already - you must have downloaded an earlier version. You can re-download for the latest version, or contact Dan (dan at zombie-cow dot com) for a fixed version. Or, to sort it for the version you've got: If you installed to Program Files/Time Gentlemen Please - right click the icon, go to Properties, and add the following to the "Start In" box: "C: \Program Files\Time Gentlemen Please" (had to put a space in there to avoid smilies!) Have fun!

Thanks for trying the game out, and for the feedback (and the bug, brkl - I'll pass it on), guys! SSDouche - I haven't read any Rankin, but I'll put that trilogy on my list! Re. the example of arbitrariness you mention - We hoped that would be enough to plant the seed... I'm glad you're enjoying it, though! Good luck, everyone!

Good, that's how the designers intended you to play it.

Shit. Shooting on the production I'm currently working on may be indefintely postponed, due to cast illness, which will leave me without money for rent. Everyone donate hundreds of pounds to Zombie Cow, with the stipulation that it all go towards my rent, please!

I THOUGHT YOU GUYS WERE TAKING THIS DEBATE OVER TO THE 'UNIVERSE AND EVERYTHING' THREAD? Ahem. My life's pros: Amazing girlfriend Exciting job (film/tv) Releasing next adventure game in the next few days My life's cons: Girlfriend living an hour's train journey away for a few months Living hand to mouth, with not much work and no immediate way to climb up to the next highest position (from floor runner to 3rd AD). Your lives' cons: Will soon be getting spammed about my next adventure game

Can anyone tell me what the kids story was where a hunter catches an animal's tail in a trap, or something, and then it comes back at night saying 'I want my tail back!' I think there may also have been some business about him repeatedly seeing a lump under the bedcovers, then realising it's his feet or his knees. It was incredibly scary!

Tell that to the people on here who have been called a 'filthy yusfert'.

Ah, it all makes sense now! I thought when you said... ...you meant being like Murray the demonic skull! I hope if that guy was older than 11, you kicked him square in the goolies.

How on earth are you like Murray?

Early 90s film? I would have used this:

Well, he pretends to be that dude in the first one by shapeshifting, doesn't he? Then in the second, he (arguably) . Then in the third one, not really anything although it does feel a little like he chooses his firey appearance - it doesn't really follow on logically from his ship getting sunk by a voodoo cannonball... I think LeChuck being able to change at will was pretty much the smallest departure from the previous games!

Seconded.

I don't think 1 or 4 look particularly nice either...

Monkey Island Adventures: Monkey Island 3b Scene 1 LeChuck: Wakey wakey, Threepwood! Guybrush: Wha? What's going on? LeChuck: I put a spell on you to make you be believin' I was your brother! Guybrush: And all the stuff after that with me escaping on a dodgem and marrying Elaine, and Herman turning out to be Governor Marley, and me fighting statue you and a thinly veiled Rupert Murdoch satire with a big monkey robot? LeChuck: Uhhh... aye, that all must have been part of the dream too! Guybrush: That explains why it didn't make any sense. Phew! LeChuck: Yarrr! [NB: LeChuck voiced by Earl Boen]

I'd recommend not stopping after ten seconds. Just keep writing, no matter what comes out. It can be crap, or even just free-association, it doesn't matter. DO NOT STOP, keep on writing - just a string of random words if necessary. No one will ever read it but you, and you don't have to feel bad about it being crap because you know it's just an exercise to prime the pumps. Do this every day for an hour or so (or whatever). Hopefully, you'll eventually get back into the habit of writing, and be able to start working on editing, structure etc without second-guessing yourself to a standstill.

Hold out for that redundancy money!

Edited my pic in the post above for improved cigarness...

Please excuse the crudity of the photoshopping...

Yeah it is, and no it wasn't. Hence the wtf - where would they get that from?

One of their picture captions: wtf?!
