Small, tiny bug in OVerture... - BakaLyte - 05-11-2009

I did a second playthrough of Overture recently, and recalling Red and how annoying I found him, I opted to NOT grab the hand-held radio near the Power Room for the New Mining Area.

Throughout the rest of the game, Red continues to communicate with me through the non-existent radio, and the little text pops up, "The radio is transmitting."

Must be a powerful radio speaker if I can hear it from the communications room where I left it on the table.

Anyways, it's a minor bug, but I felt like I should bring it into the light.

Enjoyed all the games. I got it on Steam.

Steam name is Beta_Yo. Add me if you'd like!

I've always wondered what would happen if you don't pick up the radio. Tongue:

However, that ain't bug. Wink:

It's a miss in the games design. Although it's nearly the same thing. Miss in code, miss in design, whatever.

Oh, come on this is no bug... it is a feature!

Think how much less fun the game would be without Red's monologues! Not being able to hear Red without a radio would be boring!




Just joking, honestly thought we had forssen that problem and taken precautions. But guess not Smile
