Yep, it's about that time, folks! I tested it and tested it, and everything seems to be working just fine. If there are any bugs, they're minor enough not to warrant another upload and another fix. This one's a doozy. I am aware the content is inefficiently packaged, but I'm sure you can all deal with it. It's done that way to ensure absolutely that no entities are missing, since certain ones were missing on various peoples' computers before I packaged it this way. At any rate, enjoy!
Some backstory: you don't get any. This story attempts something new. It's similar to Myst, in the sense that you are dropped in an environment with no backstory and no idea who you are or what happened. You must piece together clues, solve puzzles, and use your brain to figure everything out. Total atmosphere is the goal here, and I think I did a good job of achieving it.
Investigate everything. Item glow has been turned off in order to maintain atmosphere, as a giant 'PICK ME UP' glow made things far too easy. Experiment with items and objects in order to progress. If you are stuck, seek an alternative solution than would be the norm. Just because the character tells you to look for a certain thing, doesn't mean that item will be the solution, or even be there.
And on that note, enjoy!
