I was expecting an ending with some kind of showdown between Being One and Rycroft. And then nothing happened but a score screen.

plus if you just sat there watching your ship hit stuff for a while until you finally realized you were supposed to move it with your mouse

This series : nice job on graphics, atmosphere and original concept but too confuse and basic script costing the game a lot of interest and credibility. Author should have focused on original idea and mystery, psychology and quest for identity of the main character. Specially in a genre where those kind of stories have been done one million times already. Aliens, vampires, werewolwes, giant spiders, mad scientists, zombies, conspiracy, sects, countless verbous and too explicit diaries make the story too "heavy" and non credible. You gotta find on one main, simple lign of script and let your audience imagination work, as a script-writer, concentrating on atmopshere and your identity. Specially in sci-fi where the possibilities are pretty much illimited and you're tempted to bring more narrative elements just because you can...

The code to shut down the server is written on the wall in the freezer. You can also figure out the numbers (but not the order) by looking, which keys on the server have been scuffed.

I always loved The Being One series and the story behind it. It can turn suspenseful one moment, gruesome the next, making it truly gripping. You did a job well done, Psionic3D.

Loved the game already, (Half way through at the moment) usually I don't enjoy horror type games, but this struck me in a different way. I found this game and story intriguing, though, so I keep playing. The story keeps me immersed and into it, regardless of what a wuss I am. =) Also, loving the puzzles and mini games intertwined. 5/5 so far, and my only complaint is it's a bit slow changing items, such as when you have to pull out the gun. Maybe wish it auto equipped in combat situations. Other than that, great game though. Keep up the good work.

Hey, Psionic! I was waiting for this to come out, and it does not disappoint. I really think that you should market this whole thing as a book once you've finished the series. It would allow for more exposure to the series, and of your other work. You could even have a companion art portfolio of images from and based on the games along with possible concept art, and considering how good you are at telling stories, I think it would be great. It would also allow for more levels of Dr. Rycroft's lab to be explored because it wouldn't all have to be programmed in. I was particularly intrigued by some of the floors we saw while in the elevator shaft at the beginning of Episode 3, particularly Dinosaurs and Undead.
With the amount of comments I get relating to my grammar/punctuation I doubt a book is on the cards lol ;-) I do hope to keep explanding the website though with more behind the scenes images and short stories in preparation for Episode 6!!

I enjoyed playing the fist parts and this time the graphics are even better but the puzzles are a bit simpler.
After the first game I found almost all the secrets but playing some more for the lutz will surely happen. Cheers to the developer :)

Amazing games, so happy to have a developer so willing to chat to the players, too 5/5, good job! Hope there's a Being One 6 soon ... :)

I really do not like the intrusion detection game so far. I would like it better if I could just use the arrow keys, rather than having to click.

The 5th installment is quite different and better than the previous ones, much more detailed. This one even has small cut-scenes like the nanoslaves. To see how psionic is evolving as a developer is really exciting. The tool interface, the storyline, the graphics have much improved. Plus, listening the demands of gamers like bringing back Venus who died in part 4 but who many wanted to see. The slight complain that I have is that I thought it ended abrubtly. Somethine showing the doctor escape in a pod or such would have filled that gap.

I love this series! The only problem for me is that some of the tasks are rather hard because I'm using a laptop trackpad instead of a mouse. But other than that it's great!

Awww, I got all excited when I saw you'd said 6 would be out near the end of 2012. Hope it's still coming!! These are pretty darned cool!

I hated the ending of the last game, your followers destroy Earth! I love how it's continuing, I personally hope that the Being's followers turn against him and must be destroyed.

I've been a fan of Being One since the beginning. I accidentally discovered Episode 5 so played them all in sequence. Imagine my surprise when I started playing, improved graphics, minigames and game mechanics, even cutscenes! Can't wait for Episode 6 now!

I am a big fan of this series! I can't wait to get through this 5/5 for the series alone and how well it's grasped my attention

This contains some spoilers. Anyways, I had a heck of a time figuring out the server code. Idk if others had as much, but I even had to view the walkthrough multiple times to figure out where the hell the numbers were coming from, especially since even if you get that it involves the worn off buttons, the order is still pretty arbitrary. I have trouble believing most ppl's first thought would be 'Hey, I read a book from left to right then move on to the next line, so this completely unrelated thing must function the same way!'. I think what's more likely is that one may think 'oh, maybe the worn off #s are the answer'. Then they'd probably go 'but that doesn't make sense, because there would be no way to know what order they're in. That must not be it.'. That results in ppl like me taking 20 mins repeatedly clicking every object and entering every 4 digit number in the game cause I hate admitting defeat and turning to a walkthrough. Either way though, I still enjoyed it.
Do you mean the AutoHacker? if so then take the top row for example, it scrolls across a 5 then goes through the middle and comes out a 2, the 'difference' is 3 = input 3, now move down a row for example it scrolls across a 2 and then changes to a -2 the 'difference' is 4, input 4...do this for all 4 numbers then click 'Enter'. IF you mean the server shutdown code it's in the **SPOILER ALERT*** the f r i d g e room on the wall on the right!!
