Here is the story. Of a Link Dump on Friday. Who was showing off some very lovely toys. All of them had fun things to show, like the others. The final one in— baaaah. I never liked the Brady Bunch theme song anyway!
- Gatuno in Christmas - A short point-and-click adventure from the creator of the Esklavos series. A little holiday charm to start your weekend.
- Wallace & Gromit: Top Bun - Baker Bob has been murdered (eek!), so Wallace and Gromit have to feed the hungry people. Bake pies and shove them in the van in this simple but personality-filled time management game.
- Energuy - Drag Energuy around by the hand and click on things that will help him save electricity. And remember: doing a victory dance after turning off appliances is super effective!
- There She Is!! Final Step: Imagine - The last episode in the charming series of animations that manage to be both emotionally poignant and cute at the same time. Be sure to catch up on previous episodes for the full experience!
- Marooned Mr. Chip - A short point-and-click adventure that rains on a beautiful audio/visual atmosphere like... well, like rain!
There She Is!! is nice. XD But I feel that the ending was a bit to "normal". You know,
Hero needs to get from A to B quickly, employs help of friends to get there.
But I'm digging the song. Sometimes, it fits so well that I think they made the animation on the song, or the song on the animation, y'know?
Does anyone know where to download it, though? It's "Imagine" by Brunch. I DO NOT have iTunes.
Help please! I can't get my snail to win in Gatuno in Christmas!
how do i get a coin to bet for the snail in Gatuno?
This is kinda sad, I'm stuck at the same point and I've already used everything on everything else at least once.
ohh
you can go through the guy's pockets
Wait got it! XD
Loved Final Step!
The last episode of There She Is...Beautiful.
I feel really stupid right now. I'm super stuck in Gatuno in Christmas. I have
a branch, a transparent thread, a comb, a snail, a ball of hairs, a coin, and a leaf
and I'm toally stumped on what to do. I've tried to use everything on everything and combine everything with everything, and yet I still can't figure it out. Any hints, anyone?
Okay, nevermind, I got it. I didn't notice the
gum on the railing next to the boy
Marooned has beautiful artwork, and a cute storyline (even if it DOES take less than a minute to finish). I hope the artist does further interactive work with longer storylines.
I haven't played it yet, but am I the only one that was reminded of Sweeney Todd, reading the description for Wallace & Gromit: Top Bun? >.>
Energuy is seriously crap. Almost unplayable. And they try to change the size of my browser, and that's just unforgivable.
I don't know how people manage to find so many things in Gatuno.
All I've got is a string, a branch, some gum and a comb
Help, I need somebody!
Hi!
I'm stuck in "Gatuno in Christmas".
I have tried everything everyhvere, but cant find the coin. I also can't open the loose floor tile.
I have got branch, line, snail, creature, comb, used gum and leaf.
I hope someone can help me!
(Parden my english, I am Norwegian..)
ThemePark:
Give the gum to the kid. Take a peek in the garbage bag at his house, too, after doing some things in the alley.
I need help!!
I can't find a coin to bet on race.
I have the
empty bottle, ball of hair, used gum, thread, branch, snail, comb
now what???
First (that's as in the person not "1st, 2nd etc").
Give the bottle to the shopkeeper to get your first coin.
Hope that helps.
How do you get the
energy drink?
I'm stuck, I can't get the snail to win the race and I have no idea where to get the leaf that someone else mentioned!
Where do you find the leaf for Gatuno?
Nevermind, had to find the answer somewhere else.
The leaf-
you get from the salesman, when you show him your snail.
Thanks DeeBee, however I just beat it.. For amyiu
show snail to shop owner, he will give you some food for it
cant find the bottle in gatuno :(
oh..stuck w the sad boy...
Hmmm I can't get the snail to win. any hints?
Okay so I figure I have to
give the snail the energy drink. but I don't know how to get it
hmmm...
Dear Wallace and Gromit. Yet another cherished part of my childhood my American husband doesn't understand and is slightly unnerved by. Much like most things about Canada that aren't beer or enormous woodland animals!
I wish the graphics had been a bit less obviously pasted onto the background for this one, but part of W&G's charm is that delightfully expressive doughy quality which I understand is probably a little hard to translate into 2D. There's not a heck of a lot of depth to this one, but it brought back some great memories. Yes, why, I remember when I used to force a bipedal clay dog to labor on an oven-mitted forklift in my bakery. *sigh* Those were the days . . .
Zach:
the loose tile doesn't have anything under it, it's there for a different reason.
Also, as time-management games go, the Wallace and Gromit one was pretty short and easy, but I liked the concept. If only you were allowed to hold more than one ingredient at a time, or buy speed upgrades to your oven-mitt-lift.
Any tips on finding the bottle in Gatuno? I have the
stick, thread, snail, leaf, comb, and strange creature.

I was slightly disapointed by There She Is...
There was very little conflict, and the action was very fast paced and almost unrelated.
That is one smart lizard though...
I think this is, unfortunately but not by a wide margin, the worst of the series.
there she is!!
i'm just glad that they tied the whole series up nicely. i loved the entire thing. the song was so great.
and oh man, that lizard! great!
There She Is.
I love this series, but not this ending.
The earlier episodes were poignant and moving because of the conflict, the tension, the pain. This was a simple happy ending with some nice details (like that rabbit stopping cross-traffic). A sad ending, or at least something less ordinary, would have been much better.
On There She Is!!
Part of me was hoping for something unusual or sad. It's kinda what I'm used to. In fact, I was expecting something sad, after everything that had happened in the series.
I found it refreshing that it didn't turn out that way.
i love the Energuy! especially the
dragging him into the ceiling and the floor
I don't get "Marooned." I've made it rain and grow seeds for the bird to eat That's about it!
I should have put this in one of my previous posts.
My favorite part about the whole thing is this:
Nabi gave Doki everything she imagined in the first part of the series. He danced with her, ran with her, and rode a "steed" with her, not just to make her happy, but to keep her safe from all the junk that was being thrown about.
It was clever and definitely says something about dreams coming true.
Thanks asilenthope. I wouldn't have been able to complete it without you!
I'm stuck in the same spot as Czaerana on Marooned. I made it rain, made the sun shine, and fed the bird. What do I do next?
Marooned was great, but so short. I couldn't get Wallace and Gromit to work for me, for some reason my cursor got stuck. I love Link Dump Friday.
I really liked Final Step: Imagine.
And wow, Wolfgang, you're observation is amazing! :O I never noticed that! Really shows how much thought, depth and preperation when into the making of the series. :)
I loved Energuy! I found the last item with one second on the clock. Also, that guy is oddly comfortable with the fact that he is being dragged around his house by a ghostly prescence that then shanghais him into being energy efficient.
