Nachdem sich alle 5 Teile im Fundus eingefunden hatten, ist die Blackwell-Reihe (die ersten drei Teile nach 10 Jahren noch einmal) nun komplett durchgespielt. Allesamt schöne Point & Click Adventures, trotz der durchgängig unveränderten Hauptaufgabe - noch im Diesseits hängengebliebene Geister müssen von ihrem Ableben überzeugt werden, um ins Jenseits gelangen zu können.
Die Geschichten sind interessant, mit durchaus unerwarteten Wendungen, die Dialoge und auch deren Vertonung überzeugend, die Retro-Grafik gut gemacht, die Rätsel nicht zu schwer, deren Lösungen aber auch nicht allzu offensichtlich. Nach dem ersten Teil steuerte jemand anders die Musik für die Teile 2-5 bei - nachvollziehbar, der neue Stil passt wesentlich besser zur Stimmung der Spiele.
Das Enwicklerstudio ist sogar im Fediverse präsent: @Dave Gilbert/Wadjet Eye Games
Wie ich beiläufig entdeckt habe, wurden die von mir ebenfalls geschätzten Adventures „Gemini Rue" und „The Shivah" doch glatt vom gleichen Studio entwickelt/veröffentlicht. 🙂

The image shows two white street signs mounted on a wooden fence. The top sign reads "GLUE HILL" in bold black letters, indicating the name of the location. Below it, the second sign states "PLEASE STICK TO THE PAVEMENT" in the same bold black font, serving as a pedestrian instruction. The signs are surrounded by green foliage and small blue flowers, adding a touch of nature to the scene. The background consists of a dark wooden fence, providing a contrasting backdrop to the white signs. The ground in front of the signs appears to be a paved area, likely a sidewalk.

The breaking down of old #western #imperialism has taken centuries.
The #modern world was formed in the promise of no more shifting borders - by the #UN - who then proceeded to ignore the existence of the #Palestinian and their land by way of the #colony known as #Isreal.
Being confronted with this fact, it seems prudent to say that if #Palestine gets destroyed, modernism would die with it. Why even care at that point? It's just words that have no meaning.

The image shows a street sign mounted on a dark wooden fence. The sign is composed of two rectangular panels, both with white backgrounds and black text. The top panel reads "GLUE HILL" in capital letters, while the bottom panel states "PLEASE STICK TO THE PAVEMENT" in the same style. The sign is surrounded by green foliage and small blue flowers, adding a touch of nature to the scene. The pavement is visible at the bottom of the image, indicating the sign's location near a road. The overall setting appears to be a quaint, possibly rural area.

Breve storia triste:
ho acquistato un barattolo di vegetali sottolio alla coop e quando sono tornata a casa mi sono accorta che il sottovuoto non c'era più (parte centrale del coperchio sollevata).
Adesso come faccio a provare che non l'ho aperto io?
Che palle.

Che ogni tanto un barattolo perda il sottovuoto ci sta e il supermercato ha tutto l'interesse a saperlo e segnalarlo al produttore
reshared this
Sull'etichetta, con un font CaccaDiMosca 4px, c'è l'indirizzo dello stabilimento di produzione.
Cercandolo con Google Street View, anche per altri prodotti, si hanno belle sorprese, tipo scoprire che si tratta di aziende "blasonate" che lavorano in OEM per ammortare il costo delle linee di produzione.

Anni fa un industriale biscottiero s'incazzò a biscia perché una catena di supermercati vendeva biscotti identici ai suoi… poi scoprì che li produceva la sua ditta in subappalto, o la linea di produzione strafica da vari milioni di euri avrebbe lavorato solo 3 ore al giorno, perché più di un tot col suo marchio prestigioso non si vendeva.

e ci smenerebbe chi ha bisogno di fare la spesa all'eurospin
mentre così chi può permetterselo paga una tassa per sovvenzionare il latte a chi non può permetterselo. praticamente socialismo 😁

@0ciX @Lysander il breve a maggior ragione sono interessati a segnalarlo al produttore vero, visto che la cattiva figura la fanno loro
comunque anche secondo me se uno non va lì a riportare cose tutti i giorni o coi barattoli mezzi vuoti, che allora insospettisce un po', non fanno troppe domande e si fidano

By the by, if anyone is interested in trying out their hand at making a game with the #GorgonEngine, there's a WIP documentation of it on my neocities page:

From there you can find links to download the repo and even a bare bones sample game to hopefully help people get started.

The engine is designed to run on any PC compatible running DOS with as little as an Intel 8086/8088 running at 6 MHz (10MHz for EGA). The system requirements are considered to be a minimum of 384k (depending on the size of the game) and can support an ever growing variety of sound devices.
