Step in the shoes of a disoriented man with a mission: to kill a certain person. But in order to do that, he will have to collect information from the pages of his notebook scattered around the block. Be ready to take some notes of your own, or try to keep all the information in your head! Then, if you kill him, try to reach the border of the map and exit the city!
NEWS:
- Windows versions are both good to go! Sorry for the problems.
A rare bug can put you in a problematic situation at the start. Just relaunch the game and it should be fine. Happened maybe 3 times out of the ~100 times I ran the game.
The controls are explained inside the game (and in the README.txt), but a bonus : You can skip dialogues by pressing "enter".
Have fun!
(Oh, and I do have goats in there somewhere... In a way...)
Yep, had a report of that this morning for linux. Problem is it's a python program, so compiling it is not really an option. And it doesn't seem to find the .so when I include it in the folder. So I'm trying to find another way to make it work.
@HeXoT : Thanks for trying it out. That's a new bug :) Too bad it prevented you from playing to the end! I do agree there should have been a graphical representation of the info you had so far somewhere so you could better see who you need to kill. Thanks again for playing and for the feedback!
Great game! Love how the film style matches the epoch and the music immersion. So, to add things, I wished that I could review my notes and the game informed me somehow that I shooted the wrong guy. Yeah, I couldn't finish it, I guess...
Nice game, nice graphics and ambient. Nice story. Some of the game mechanics were not working for me. For example, I had zero ammo, but still could shot anyone. Everything is frozen if I don't press any key. Nice work!
@Rex Peppers: Unfortunately I haven't been able to do a Mac OS version yet, sorry :s
@jmassing: Ah too bad, I tested the Linux one to work with a clean Ubuntu 12.04 install, I need to do the same with the Linux 64 one. Was it the one you tried?
@delpes & Blodyavenger : I'm working on it, should have a Win64 version up. Sorry :( (and delpes, as I said, I tested the game to work on a 32 bits clean install of Ubuntu 12.04)
@epinion : Thank you for the feedback! Those are two of the features I had to cut due to time, but I completely agree. Though apparently I forgot an "if", and you are still able to kill people without ammo XD
@ceronman : Thanks for the nice words. I didn't know I screwed up the ammo check though, I guess it's a "cheat mode", I could call it ? :)
Apparently it is caused by an "access violation". I'm completely inexperienced with Windows, BUT I have a workaround that I will implement right as I come home from work (I spent a couple of hours on it and only found out the possible remedy minutes before leaving). Thank you so much for your patience!
I really liked the game. I killed someone, got the "aaargh" screen, so I thought I had killed the right person but apparently not since the police came, then I got lost not knowing what to do. Also really cool music.
Cool idea. Wish the camera and motion were smoother as you stepped from tile to tile. Reference old school RPGs from square, they've got this perspective and style downpat. The music was great. The concept was very cool. Spent a long time before I figured out to click to shoot.
@lucas-b.eyer.be : Thanks! Indeed, the "aaaargh" dialogue comes up when you kill the right guy. I'd guess you pressed enter and skipped the dialogue, because the text says that you need to escape the city. I could have clarified (and did it in the description on this page), but that means you need to reach the border of the map.
@dj_pale : Strange, never encountered that bug. Thank you for playing and for your kind words though!
@cwilloughby : Thanks, you're right that the movement doesn't feel very "juicy" yet.
@Dark Acre Jack : Nooooooooo :( Well, I will try your suggestion and record a playthrough (or two or three, to show the various endings) and link it on the top of the page.
Really good game and I actually learned something ^__^. Loved the art style and music. Would have been nice to be able to revisit notes. I kept forgetting what they said. I could also keep shooting when I ran out of ammo.
Very cool!! I lost the first few times but it's pretty easy if you pay attention, and I was happy to learn the secret at the end (and probably will remember that forever now). Maybe my favorite interpretation of the theme yet.
The controls are pretty awkward (arrows + space + mouse needs three hands!) so fortunately you can take your time. Music and style was great. On windows, the 32 bit version should suffice for everyone, including 64-bit users. Right?
(oh, I see that people do have trouble with the 32-bit version... I don't know what's going on, except that a 32 bit binary should be able to work. Oh, well.)
@OU GDA : Thanks for trying it out! Revisiting the notes is the top thing I would have added if I had time. Let's consider the 'bug' where you can shoot without ammo a balancing feature? :D
@Tom 7: Thank you too for your very kind words. The issue with the 32 bits versions was with the audio decoding lib apparently causing issues with the security mechanism of Win 7 64 bits...

I'm so sorry guys! :\ I will get this sorted.
It's saying me
./raoul: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by /tmp/_MEIS3O5Lt/libz.so.1)
Anyway, I dissapeared from the screen when I reached 1 ammo left :|
So, to add things, I wished that I could review my notes and the game informed me somehow that I shooted the wrong guy.
