Oh wow, are you the ''Produced and Designed by'' guy? :-O

[mgruson]

Yeah, that was a different lifetime though!  I was pretty surprised to see a full play-through here. I was over at a friends house the other day (Paul Lahaise from the Rex team) and we watched your YouTube Rex videos on his living room big screen via TiVo -- great flashbacks. Thanks for taking the time!

Wow great! :D

I seemed quite mean in this vids description comments now that i read back! lol I liked this game more than just a bit. I've played it quite a few times now - noticing extra bits and bobs. Re my sound comments, I use headphones instead of speakers and any sirens, ringing or buzzing type noises/notes seemed louder than normal! I liked the hut music and the exploring of the city music most i think. Those get stuck in my head.

I almost recorded it all in one long piece but

...i messed up right at the very end so it was recorded in one long part and then a tiny part added on. I put it on dvd as one long file also so i could watch on tv also haha :D

I think i saw you both worked on Dragonsphere too? Loved that game as well - planned to do a video of that but i'm not sure if it has already been done by now?

I'm working on a team remaking an old computer game (King's Quest 4). It's all volunteer though so progress is quite slow due to life, and especially since we

...don't have that many people involved. It's nice to hear from someone else who worked on a game, and one like this! Thanks for the comments!

@mgruson That game rocks! I used to play it on my pentium-1 as a kid... Now Dosbox brought it back to me

@mgruson I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you for giving me some of my most precious childhood PC moments - I loved this game as a kid - it has been a prominent and dear memory of mine for about 20 years now. Thank you!

02:05 -- I don't remember a whole lot about this game, but I DO remember this -- er, scenelet. I cracked up. The little musical notes that annunciate it are just priceless. Thanks so much for making a playthrough of this game. I just searched it on YouTube on a whim. I watched my dad play this (sans nudity parts ;) ), and we had such a good time figuring out all the puzzles. Thanks for bringing back a little bit of my childhood and making my day! :)

The graphics in this game give me a head ache.

Funny game though. Cool playthrough.
