Leaving the Vault ~ It's Dangerous to Go Alone A game by John Colburn
===QUICK CONTROL SUMMARY=== Movement: ARROW KEYS or WASD Action: SPACE BAR Fullscreen: F11
Only you can save your vault from extinction! Journey into the unknown and seek the Reactor Control Circuit.
It's not a terribly long game, but I think I managed to fit it together pretty well. All the parts are there, and it should take at least a few minutes to play through. I hope you enjoy my very... "colorful" sound effects.
Windows and Linux users: Download your obviously labeled disros.
Mac users: The source version seems to run just fine in OSX, but you'll need a *32bit* version of Python 2.6 or 2.7; just run the "leaving_the_vault.py" using said Python interpreter and enjoy!
I've kept smiling because of all the funny voices you've made for those computers and doors, big PLUS on that :D Story is simple yet understandable and it matches the theme. Only thing that bothered me was that walking which is realy slow but other than that you've made realy nice game!

Tested the game. No the sound.
The game is a little short. The main character walk too slow !!! But good graphics. The menu can be improve.
Some nice efforts at world-building. It'd be nice if the main character moved faster, or possibly if the environments were a bit more compact. It'd benefit from the rule "Show, don't tell" as well: perhaps you could show us what's on the computer terminals (especially in the reactor) and let us figure out what that means, rather than just telling us what we need to do next.
