Next Monday?? Why wait a whole week, what’s the point? A few days should be more than enough for people to install the game.

EDIT: Bought and installed. Ready to go.

Revised to Wednesday.

I’m on board.

I have installed the game from the disk, obtained my code, viewed the intro, and washed my Nelly t-shirt to wear on the first day.

It seems as if the only source available for games these days is Steam, which also happens to be my least favorite source. I’ll get it shortly. Unfortunately, RL has reared its ugly head, so there are some things I need to take care of. It will be at least Thursday before I’m ready. More likely it will be this coming weekend, so the original schedule would have been perfect for me. Will catch up when I can.

Game installed and everything seems to work fine.

It seems as if the only source available for games these days is Steam, which also happens to be my least favorite source. I’ll get it shortly. Unfortunately, RL has reared its ugly head, so there are some things I need to take care of. It will be at least Thursday before I’m ready.

The first part of the game should not take that long to complete. It can easily be done over the weekend. To me, Neely is a perfect example of a well done Indy game, funny, solid puzzles and story and fabulous voice acting.
There are many walk throughs avaliable, so if you get stuck use one.

Here’s some more info on the game:

“Nelly Cootalot is a spicy lady and she is a pirate but she is not a pirate who causes murder and manslaughter. In this 2nd Nelly Cootalot story, Nelly goes back to battle with Baron Widebeard. The Baron has taken the nasty plan to go after the “Treasure of the 7th Sea”, a treasure hidden by pirate Bloodbeard on his sunken ship “The Sweet Mary”. Nelly finds out that the Baron has again abducted a large flock of birds and hypnotized them so that the birds do everything the Baron wants them to do. Nelly wants to thwart the plans of the Baron and free the birds.”

Steam says the game is 50% off right now, so it’s a good time to pick it up. The HD remaster of the first one is .99 cents on Steam which is a bargain.

Here’s a link to the games homepage:

Ok, it’s time to complete “Chapter One:  On board the Mailship Undeliverable” of the game. Stop when you get to port. You have until next Wednesday to get that done:

And AliBK as the developer, we don’t want you to play the game, just please add comments on how you developed certain parts of the game. For example where did you get the idea for Nelly from in the first place?

It’s good to see you here, Alasdair!  I played the remastered Spoonbeaks recently and loved it, so I’m looking forward to this playthrough.

As we have time until next Wednesday I intend to play the remastered Spoonbeaks first and the first section of the CPT later.

Glad to have Alasdair here. I love British humour (and accent…)

The main character was based on my girlfriend

Your girlfriend was a pirate?!
