Pretty cool story. Serving the html as a google document seemed weird. Maybe you could throw it up on dropbox instead?

Hey, nice story writing!
Got me really interested in the story.

Yo, this sent me to a the html code rather than the game (I imagine you want it to send you to a game.) Check out this article: https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/74/publishing-and-promoting-your-construct-2-game. I used it to get google drive to host my flash game (and actually play the game when you visited the link).

Would like to see a longer version of this. Also see if you can figure out a way of hosting this so we dont have to download it :) you'll get a lot more plays that way

Well, I wasn't expecting to play a game with some violent descriptions, but yeah, hey, nice job on setting the mood. Although I didn't feel compelled to keep playing after I got murdered down the hall.

Thanks for all the feedback everyone. I got my friend to upload the latest version to his web server, so now it's available to play immediately :)

Seemed to be written in a noir-esque style. This was actually my first Twine game, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Shame it's incomplete!

Nice potato cameo.

namuol 2013-04-29 05:22

Lots of potential, here. Please finish it!

Nice story. I wish the rewind worked for me.

sparkleswirl 2013-04-29 06:23

To be continued?!!!! Noooooo!

Nice. Always fun to play these fish out the water games. Should definitely flesh it out and make it longer!

sestren 2013-04-29 12:13

Reminds me a little bit of how Dark City starts out. I'm with everyone else here, it should be longer.

Hehehe, I had DOSBOX and even downloaded CWSDPMI to try this out. It is minimalist to the max! Well done. :D

dustystylus 2013-04-29 17:43

Argh, sorry, I posted in the wrong page!! Have fixed the score.

Kept me busy for a bit, but after a while I got a bit bored. I like how most of it is very concise. The intro was nice, but it didn't really manage to grab me.

I liked it - wish it was longer and had a real ending.

To be continued?!!! NOOOO

I enjoyed this. You've done a pretty good job on the film noir murder mystery ambience. Reminded me a bit of the old NES game "Déjà Vu". The unusual writing style works pretty well. The story isn't hugely original, but you've created a good sense of horror. In game terms, this is solid Twine work.

Nice way to bring in potatoes, too.

I must admit I was a bit disappointed to find that


SPOILERS

... I got a "to be continued" message the moment the story seemed to be going somewhere.

END SPOILERS


But that just testifies to the story sucking me in. Nice interactive story.

christina-nordlander 2013-05-07 22:31

"Deja Vu", even. Dang messageboard not allowing accents...

Nice - I died p quickly but went back to play again - I like it. :)
