Am I missing something? All I've found is the key to an empty room with writing on the wall, and another key that I lost down the bathroom drain... I will live forever or die trying. |

I'm up to the same as Venge. I suppose you have to get the key out of the drain, but how... EDIT: Ah got it. You done a terrific job Mike, very very creepy. |

Extremely creepy! First time I collided with that body scared the socks out of me! Good work Mike, better said, terrific good work! Looking forward to more minigames. Are there by chance 2 endings? |

Ah. Gotcha. The headless body reminded me of that episode of Doctor Who, with the killer creatures that turned to stone if someone could see them. So as long as you never looked away, you were safe. Then if you look away for a second and turn back they'd be RIGHT THERE with their claws right about to slice you open, frozen in stone again. Very good job, I wonder now if I should have run once she started looking at the pictures on the walls. EDIT: Aha! Found the heart key this time around. Still creepy ending though. I will live forever or die trying. |

Very creepy fun game. I've gotten one ending, must try for the other one. Edit: Found the last 'object' but have no idea what to do next, can't pick it up or make the person follow me there. Maybe I'm missing something... ![]() |

I think you can only give it one or the other. |

@marlou: Thanks! @ShaunRW: I'm glad you're able to find your way. Thank you! @zapakitul: Yes, there are 2 endings in the game. @Venge: It's kinda similar to an enemy from Mario. I think its a ghost, where they only move when you're not looking at them... I don't know 'Doctor Who' though, I guess I should try checking it out... @jeffhuys: Thank you! @Chicknstu: I was hoping to make one, but it's hard to make a walkthrough without having it a spoiler... And besides, it's just a short game... @Cliff Mellangard 3DEGS: Wow, thanks for the link! @The Slayer: Thanks! @Josh Mooney: Maybe she already went to the door. Sad to say, she can't have both parts... @dxdragon86: Thanks! |

Alright, grabbed the final key and gave her the final object, even creepier ending. Great work. Your FX are very good, the screen effects really give it that skin crawling feeling. Other horror games can learn from yours...seriously, I've played some horrible commercial horror games that are not even half as creepy as yours. ![]() |

I ran it... and the camera wouldn't stop spinning to the left. I tried every version; 3D, Hi and Lo, and they all result in the same thing. I can move around, but its near-impossible to get to where I want with the camera constantly spinning to the left. If I move the mouse, the camera does rotate with it, but still has this invisible force pushing it to the left, so in order to look right I have to move the mouse really fast to the right, and the second I stop it begins spinning back to the left. |

The game is great, but on my computer is really slow. I didn't try the low version however, but the full colour version should be fast. |

@RUCCUS Make sure (if you have one) that your joystick/other input device is not leaning to the left. I've had that exact same thing happen before with that cause (My joystick only auto-centres when your hand is around it) |

I was using my laptop, its just a touch-pad mouse. My fingers weren't on the pad and it was turning to the left. Im pretty sure my pad isn't broken as my mouse pointer doesn't drift to the left and I dont experience this issue in my own games. |

Is that what the 3D meant? Doh.. I thought it was meant to look like that! |

My English isn't good enough to describe the feelings I had while playing this game, but even in French I can't find words strong enough! So, this is the best DBasic game I've ever played , but also just one of the best game at all. No matter if it's short, I will remember these 10 minutes of play for a long time thanks Mike for this... |

Well, that was kinda random and I still don't see what was stopping me just opening any one of the many windows and jumping outside. But still, I'll give a full list of things I like and things I didn't. Starting with the things I didn't because other forum users will thing I'm flaming if I do that last xD: * I didn't like the fact it was all in black and white * I didn't like the changing light levels * I didn't like the randomness of the whole thing - it didn't seem to make much sense, yet there were other areas like having to get the key out the sink that made perfect sense. * I nearly closed the game straight away when I realised how horrible the mouse movement felt. * I didn't like where the key to the second room was hidden, I felt that was a bit cheap, especially as bloom isn't even a real effect - and the key would be a different colour to the light coming through the window. * I didn't like the fact that the girl somehow managed to get a knife from somewhere. - I'd have made it so she finds it in that room, but if you take it first, she can't get it and there is a different ending. And the things I did like: * I liked the random heartbeat over by the sink area (but felt it would have worked better for tension somewhere else) * I liked how nicely presented it all was, with things you can use highlighting and all the icons for the keys glowing * I liked the fact I got stuck quite often, but then managed to figure out what to do next without too much angst. * I liked how creepy the random headless&heartless girl was, the way she creeps up and stands right behind you. All in all, I preferred the last game you made, with the different coloured mazes made of smooth shiny rectangles. But still, if this is made to be art and is at least playable, you shouldn't care too much about the ups and downs. |

@c0wbox: I think she is carrying the knife the entire time, and the random heartbeat by the sink is because the room with her heart is behind there. Apparently you haven't found the heart ending? I will live forever or die trying. |

There's a separate key for the heart room. Look around room 3 some more. I will live forever or die trying. |

Is it possible to make the window full screen? All I have is a smallish square in the middle, and I think the 3D would look a lot better full screen. |

Mike Inel... This is amazing! But why cancel "who"? I really wanted to see what would turn out with it... Also, how did you position the cameras to achieve that 3D image? Did you cross them at certain focal points, or keep them looking ahead parallel to each other? TheComet ![]() Make the paths of your enemies easier with WaypointPro! |

I have only a small problem with the 3d version: The images are wayyy too far apart. However, I can just use the iz3d anaglyph driver to convert any direct3d game to 3d, then adjust separation and convergence ingame. Although, it is really cool to code your own 3d into your game...I did that with my game temporarily, then discovered I really needed ingame adjustment controls. Still, this game is awesome, I like the little scares and the different endings, great job, Mike! |
