Brand New Free Game Announcement!!!
Hello,
Forgive my lack of proper gaming site etiquette (I don't generally have time to post to websites). I have completed making a full, near commercial level adventure game........."Tail End Charlie". You are psychically drawn into the last few moments of a WWII bomber pilot veteran's life. He enlists you to help him collect his memories of his beloved crewmen, so he can complete his "mission". I wrote a complete walkthrough to accompany the game. It is 479mb and full of puzzles. Some puzzles are very complicated (but totally logical !!), and most puzzles are pretty modest in difficulty. It uses all original photos and lots of photoshopped objects, items, etc. If you have played any of the "Carol Reed" games (East Side Story, Time Stands Still, Remedy)......then you are familiar with the style that I employed. It is first person, and uses Wintermute. Please play my game and enjoy it. I just fell in love with adventure games about two years ago, then decided to devote myself to making a complete game, myself. I went from knowing absolutely nothing at all whatsoever about programming/design to successfully finishing a full game. Trust me, if I could do it (I am a mailman by profession), then ANYONE could make a good game. Thank you very much for maintaining a wonderful website. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=BIATRTN7 Thanks again everyone and I'm very glad this site allows a neophyte to share his game with everyone who loves adventures!

Tail End Charlie screenshots
A few screens from the game. If you are stuck, just consult the very helpful walkthrough. It is found inside the game files folder. Thanks, Terence.

Hints for apartment puzzles......
Splat44,
Thanks for playing my game! The apartment is where you live. On the bulletin board (through lobby doors / on right wall) is a note that tells you to solve 3 puzzles. The answer to each puzzle is a number. You have to multiply the 3 numbers to get the "key keeper" code. The note tells you where to find the key keeper. The first puzzle: Look all around for something that looks like that description (dot,space,etc.) The second puzzle: What has a second hand on it? The third puzzle: Look for the fruit bowl! *Remember, you can right click to examine inventory items* _____________________________ Hope that helps, and feel free to ask me anything else!

Key keeper.....
To get the key from the key keeper...........
Just multiply [the first answer] x [the second answer] x [the third answer]. Hint: It adds up to a 4-digit number. The key keeper has a reset button (by the way). The walkthrough for the game is found at the end of the manual (included in game files). Hope that helps! Thanks, FuzzyMachinery |

Ms. StarLight
Thank you very much for playing my game! I have played a hundred great games and wanted to make a really good puzzler. It takes a little while to build momentum, but if you are stuck..........just look at the manual/walkthrough (in game files folder). Think logically, LOOK AT EVERYTHING, and take notes so you can remember what you saw.
Enjoy! FuzzyMachinery |

Most of these photos are generally well-composited, but that hat on top of the memorial looks really silly.
