Fantastic game. Impressively involving puzzles. I sat here trying to figure out how I could look at a newspaper in the game, then wondered about searching in real life. I laughed at what I found out.
That was a pretty strong story, covering a serious concept, with some very challenging puzzles. The water sprinkler puzzle I needed to look up, the rest I solved eventually. A very good game with a moving storyline.
I can't load back in to complete this, so had to watch a walkthrough on youtube. (Thank you, Metrotorful). I did find the gameplay frustrating to be honest, especially the smoke rings.
But the story is excellent and this does fit very well with TCOM. I loved how they became a great team and then the reveal for the scene as they split up.
I'm with others on being unconvinced that he killed her, and yet the report at the end of TCOM did say she was dead. Maybe one day we'll know for sure.
It is a painful story of two addicts meeting up at a low point for both, getting better together, and then .... I do find it interesting that she is assisting at the end.
Again, gameplay was frustrating, but story wise I really enjoy this.
My two problems with this game is the white on white so you lose track of yourself and how slow the ship feels (miss powerups if they get past me). But otherwise a pretty good game and I really like the concept of just boss fights.
@Endless Dawn - I think you either need to be a certain level or have to complete a certain amount of quests before you meet Tom. I didn't see him at first (in the area to the left of the third save spot) but later there he was. He is level 12 so maybe you have to be too.
Excellent game. But for some reason I can't get the three balloons achievement even though the game says I have done it. Wouldn't bother me but keeping me from getting the side quests achievement.
Excellent game, if it made me mad a few times before I figured out the solution (standing still so won't fall off me). But loved the music and mood, if it was very sad too. But just how flash games should be, interesting, challenging, not too long, worth playing.
