mjau's LD14 game

Very charming. I like the quirky writing a lot. It's very short of course, but as it stands it's basically one puzzle (which only made sense to me after I had solved it accidentally :) ) which is fine too.

Liked the ending somehow, especially the feedback from typing "exit" then :D

I laughed out loud when playing it - always a good sign, and far too rare when playing games these days.

It's also a good sign that after completing it, I let the window stay open for a while just to hear the pretty chirping. :>

Although the game is a bit short (well, perhaps that's an understatement), I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Well done!

Okay, the ending made me smile. Not too much to say about this. Looks technically solid, I liked the sound loop in the background. Too bad it's so short; when I saw the text screen, I was preparing to immerse into a vast adventure ;)
Still good job for 6 hours, though!

It's a shame it was so short. Pretty nice nonetheless especially the bird songs and the exit message when you win.

Huh... so there's really just two locations, and two objects? That was not a tough puzzle for me (once I found the words it understood)! I guess you didn't have a lot of time to spend!

I was never any good at these games :)

Ambience in the background is a nice effect.
Didnt finish it, will hold onto it for now and try again later.

Funny :)

Loved the sound. The story is funnily absurd but unfortunately too short.

Ok, not much content there, but I have to say I really liked the retro text paired with audio like that.

Plus, picking through your code, that is a really a nice and simple way that you connected lua to your c and handled save games and such.

Tight and clean.

Couldn't get the Linux version to work, although the exe worked through Wine.

The birdsong is a great touch; the game itself is too short though (and unintuitive, but text games always are).

Nasty puzzle. Had to actually look in the code ;)

Whatever that puzzle was, I didn't crack it. I liked the little jokes, especially the slightly postmodern one.

hehe, that was entertaining.

Darn it I never was any good at these, always getting stuck when there was some warped logic/humor to the puzzles solutions!

Good Sfx usage though! A drum of doom could have upped the tension!

I have a soft spot for text games :) The music is nice and subtle. I like this text engine.. it feels solid. I'd like to play more games in it. You have a lot of freedom with a graphical window -- stuff like changing the text color or background color, or even showing some very low-res images (I'm thinking back to the BBS days and ANSI graphics). Overall a quirky and fun entry, although the wall never advances. A periodic message like "The wall inches its way close and closer..." would have added some tension.

Oh Hotel, you selfless animal!

I rather liked this, but would've like to see it expanded a little more. It was funny, but I'd like to have seen a longer adventure.

awesome! only IF game i ever finished :P

i found the win action by luck. hotel is a hero now.

"You have won!"
That was the first time I ever won a text adventure game!

Nice to play a text game once again.

It had a really nice atmosphere, shame it wasn't longer.
