2024-05-24: Added experimental web build

Made for KAJAM15. Please set your expectations to LOW :D.  If you are playing the WEB VERSION you might need to open the left sidebar and set the mouse cursor type to capture (the second option)

How to play:

Left click on characters, objects, and windows. You can only interact with things that are in the same scene as your character, so you will need to place her into the scene by dragging her portrait into the window. Left click and hold her face, then drop the outline into the scene.

How to install locally:

You will need DOSBOX. Unzip to any location, then launch the game with 'dosbox path/to/your/unzipped_dir'. This will give you an MSDOS prompt. type 'autoexec' to launch windows 3.1, from there I'm confident you'll work it out.

Audio note:

All game audio is via adlib midi. I had thought I'd set this up correctly but it's actually more tricky than I realised as. You might need to have a local midi synth installed (default on some operating systems, not on others) to hear any audio at all. Sorry :(

Install instructions

Unzip anywhere and mount the folder as C in DOSBOX, then type 'autoexec.bat'

Audio note:

If you're not hearing anything you're missing out on half the experience. There's a weird problem in the version of DOSBOX I'm using. This is what works for me:

  • Close Program Manager by double clicking the '-' icon at the top left. You'll be prompted to end your windows 3.11 session. Click OK to drop to a DOS prompt.
  • Type 'win'. Windows will restart and midi should hopefully work.

Bruh, how do you have time to make all this awesome stuff? lol.  The number of times I've jumped to a game and thought "Oh this looks neat" and then realized it was another of your projects is too damn high 😂   Keep up the great work!  I actually wish there was more - this game has potential!  It reminded me a bit of some of the old greats like Shadowgate and Dare 2 Dream

too kind. i was hesitant to make this one public at all. If i ever make a 'real' point and click i won't be drawing the graphics on paper like this 😂

The graphics somehow worked well in a weird way - it almost felt like a print-and-play tabletop game where you had to move components around a board, or maybe like those books from when I was a kid where you'd get a sheet of stickers and have to put them on various pages.  This game was just really neat all around in its presentation.
