Aha!

Maybe the longer levels can be divided up, so the tension doesn't have a chance to drain away while spending more time in the same level :)

Is there more past level 12?

Here's where you find the cookies settings (in the Brave browser anyway)

The one that says "Auldhame"? It should progress wherever you click on it; if it's frozen or doing an error message, maybe it's because cookies aren't enabled

Aha! I zoomed out, that worked - thank you lots!

Cool!
(Oops, posted in the comments of the wrong game 🙃)

Now it says administrator granted but still the cancel button doesn't do anything... 🙃

Where's the third item? Found the speaker and flashlight

I had closed it, but now played it through from the start :)
There is still a matter where you can drag a piece out of the playing area, but then cannot drag it back, though it's unlikely to happen

Me neither...

It's good to find games made in the old style!

A bit disappointed that the ship was still out at sea at the end; would have been nice to see it at a dock or have a picture of the house on land with smoke coming out of the chimney :)

Thank you for commenting! Happy New Year!

So glad to hear that it caught the sense of the I Spy books - that's the kind of thing I want to make. And what I want to find - if you have any favourites of the similar kind, I would love to hear about them!

Once you've got the baby dragons (plural), there is also one side quest - it would probably be good for me to go through and make sure the whole thing still works from beginning to end. :) It could still have bugs for some situations though

May the spirit of the strange and curious burn bright forever!

Thanks for making! Merry Christmas to you sir!

At first thought it was busted, since I didn't know you were to type the words to recharge (which is a very cool idea)

It seems though that if you lose while recharging, you can't use any of the buttons when you try again

Ah! That worked! Thanks! 👍

the password doesn't seem to work - pressing enter types the word "enter'

Won!

Used two pirates, and a doctor to energise, focussed on killing one at a time so it could not heal or attack, always chose increase ram, later on got bigger hard drives, efficient routing, and upgraded firewall - could have got efficient routing earlier by just killing all but a doctor then ending turns repeatedly while it healed itself :)

Oh, a thought: for the draggable torn papers, maybe it could be made so that the cursor becomes an open hand when on them, and closes when holding the mouse-button down - it's a familiar indication of something that can be clicked and dragged - not sure how feasible it would be to apply in the game though, so you can just ignore this if it isn't helpful :)

(By the way, is the title meant to say "beard" or "bear"?)

Wonderful! Thank you for this pleasant puzzle!

Awesome! And thank you! Saw your comment on Freesound too - unfortunately it still can't mention or reply, so it's kind of one way communication 🤷‍♂️

Yes, the trash puzzle is the "final boss" of the game :) For the only four things you can pick up at the beginning, without needing other items,  since the key and the milk seemed obvious, the mask and hammer were placed among many non-interactive objects - which may have been too effective! 😅

The "simple program" gag was born out of frustration with how simple programs have often been the ones that make our computer crash. There's another, more exciting way to crash the computer in the game, inspired by how I liked to force glitches in old games like Streets of Sim City by going as far out past the border of the game map as possible, till the skybox looked warped and the sun smeared out in a jagged line... 😊

Hope your game work goes well!

Thanks! I actually haven't played fnaf yet - I guess it's convergent inspiration, which makes it even more eerie. 🙃

This is basically a perfect little game.

I posted it as today's daily Strange thing! :)

I'd love to make something similar myself. :)

Hey! I forgot to mention, your game was yesterday's Daily OOM! (Daily Strange Thing 👍).

I remember trying this, but it works now, so I guess I'll never know if it was a glitch - ah well! :) Thank you!
The Linux download crashes when you reach the chamber, just so you know. 👍

Incidentally, I write witch-hunter stories, where the witch-hunters are quite similar to the witches in this game. :) Thanks for the interesting game!

How do you light the match?

Huzzah! That worked; thank you, Sir!

I like how smoothly playable it is, while still feeling simple and low-res. And how you're able to get lost, but it doesn't become tedious.

Don't lose too much hair over me, haha! :D I've got the standalone, but it does the same thing - that is to say, I don't know what to type in and do for Ubuntu for doing this:

mkdir poom 
<path to pico>\pico.exe -home . 
cd poom\carts 
REM change xx to actual version number 
unzip poom_standalone.xx.zip

When I right-click the "poom_1.9" file in the "poom_1.9_linux" folder, and select "Run", it doesn't do anything. When I do ./poom_1.9 in the command line it gives the error: "error while loading shared libraries: libSDL2-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

?

Sorry, I hope my inexperience brings a little humour to someone's day. :)

Hello! I love this game!

I need some help though: the Linux version isn't running (with permissions set for executing as a program), and I'm not sure how to set up the standalone on Ubuntu - trying to put in the path gives a syntax error.

This is very sweet - looking forward to the completion! 

That one I had played before and liked a lot - I forget why I hadn't rated it yet, maybe because I was going to try the red hand of the clock, but never did. I would sure play another such game if you have some more such ideas. :)

Of mine I would recommend Get in the House, which I made with my brother.

Looking forward to it!

There's still some of your other games I need to check out too. :)

Your game is today's Daily OOM!
