Short story-driven game about a couple of spies infiltrating an evil lair. But whom you trust is not always a simple question....

NOTE for osx users: completely untested due to not owning a mac.

A first i was like "what is this it's not even about vilain" but the story was interesting so i've done it and...it was good :)

Nice entry. :) The storyline was good, and although some of the jokes were b-a-a-d, some of them were decent. :) Good game!

Works on OS X. Still playing it. Between waiting for. Dialog strings to. Finish timers. Button to advance. Would be sweeeeet. Good music and. Mood. Sometimes text overwrites without clearing the previous dialog. But tighten that up, add an input to advance, and call me in the morning Red Legion!

Tricky villain, isn't he? Interesting fight style and dialogues. Also I've never seen games written in pure lua. Oh, and that story... nice, I really enjoyed that.

I really enjoyed this game, it has a great story, especially for being made in 48 hours. Music is good, but starts to get a bit repetitive. Overall, a great game.

Works on OSX.

Please make text go faster I have only been waiting this whole game. To the point where I just do something else and check if the text is done, but then I cannot follow the story

Great game! I really liked the little NPC agent that talked to you throughout the game. Definitely made it more fun, since I wanted to progress to see what else he'd say.

Sorry about The OSX issues, guys. I really don't know what is going on with the text, as I have no means to test it (it works fine on windows and Android...)

Nice twist, really enjoyed this one.

Not much in terms of gameplay, but the story and presentation makes up for it. Nice twist at the end!

Really enjoyed that! Should have really expected the twist but I didn't! Liked the walking animation! The fighting got a little old after the first few people.

Okay. This game is sick.

It makes an interesting exploration as a typing tutorial. Love the way the characters hop to walk. Love the transitions between screens. Wasn't sold on the music at first, but it took hold of me. Great work!

Unfortunately the game crashed when I tried to run it (Windows). I'll try again on another computer later.

I can't figure out how to play it on my mac... :S

Works on Mac. But can't progress through the story as I can't hit any button to mov forward. It's pretty interesting though.

Ahahahahahaha, didn't see it coming!

Excellent minimalistic approach, you've really made it shine.

Wow, that was a really cool twist. I quite enjoyed the dialogue as well. The fighting... not so much. But still, the story was really cool.

Whoah, that was awesome! This one absolutely got me. :-)

Works on OSX! I noticed that the text dialogues sometimes are blended each other. Overall, it's a good game.

Very nice game! I loved the story and the twist. I usually don't like "story" games, but this one made me smile with the ending :-)

The main thing that needs some improvement is the sound, that was quite grating. But other than that I loved your game!

Also consider adding a more complex "type-fighting"? :-)

I personally like the idea, but you need to really speed up the dialog part as that is WAY to slow...
Spelchan27 Dec 2012, 23:57
The story and humour made the game well worth playing though. Not quite the ending I anticipated so you caught me there. I hate the quick-time battle systems that video games use during cut-scenes so I hated the combat system this game had. Still, very well done game.

I actually thought the pacing of the story was fine. I enjoyed the humour as well as little touches like the passwords which made sense after the ending. :)

I have not rated, for some reason, I can't see the backgroud, and I can't see the text because it's white...

Nicely balanced game. Has about everything needed. Interesting fighting system, but maybe not for me. Overall good job!

What a twist! wasn't a huge fan of the QTE combat, personally...
