As a couple people on this site may know, I've been dabbling in game-making for some time now. With my ever faithful beta tester silenttype01, I've been starting a couple new projects and making a demo for initial public opinion. Feedback is appreciated as well as any bugs you may find!!
AT WEEK'S END
My first attempt at using a point and click engine. This will be a point and click mystery game, centered around exploring and figuring out puzzles.
DEMO UPDATED
Now, explore the manor and see what secrets it may hold! Title screen and music updated. Play up until the first chapter starts, 5 minutes straight through, but easily extended to 15 or more with exploring and such.
DOWNLOAD DEMO
Thanks for playing, and check back for updates!
KNOWN GLITCHES:
The Dossier system still has kinks that need to be worked out. I know what I need to do and please allow me to fix them. They will be fixed in the next release.

Yep, if you need a lab rat and can withstand all types of criticism and advice, I'm the lab rat that will not fail! If you just want a lab rat to agree with everything you do then don't bother me.
The demo is good and from OMiY's early draft of the plot, this game is turning out to be a good one. and the demo is extremely short. But short enough to pique one's interest.

I'll give it a shot 
Impressions: Pretty good so far, didn't get too much into the story because it cuts off RIGHT after you leave to the Manor, but the intro was very well. Music is typical RPG style intro music...or that stuff...you get what i mean >_>.
Non-impressions: It was short for a demo really, mostly a demo would cut off near a very good climactic point or something, plus i didn't really get much of the whole experience of the game with the intro, all i did was just walk around, pick up the Dairy, get Otto, and leave the manor. Not to be mean or anything but it was a little bit TOO short to be a demo really...
...but you know what? If this is just a piece of what i would expect from the full game, i am pretty interested
.
P.S. count me in as a lab rat >_>

@silent: Yeah, I appreciate it greatly.
@Max: yeah it was short, I know. I'm still toying around with the point and click engine, so I decided I'd see if it was a good choice to try that instead of arrow keys. So far, I like what I'm seeing, so I'll get a longer demo up in the next week or so (making these things is HARD). And yes, you'll actually get to GO to the manor in the next one.
And for everyone else who tries it, I haven't made the title screen yet or changed the title screen music...so it's gonna seem pretty out of place.

Not to be pushy or anything, but how is the game going so far?

Eh! A reply!
Actually, I've completed most of the maps for the manor and completed a couple more interface add-ons I wanted to incorporate. Yeah, that demo statement was a pretty white lie, because I want something somewhat substantial. However, with almost all of the mechanics done, the game will move forward quicker. So no, you're not pushy, and I'm glad you are interested.
Here's some screenies to tide everyone over:
Modified Title Screen:

The Dossier Interface that keeps track of all clues relating to guests:
I promise I'll have more playable soon! =3

BUMP WITH NEW DEMO.
Please give it a chance and have fun1 Post any glitches not under the KNOWN GLITCHES in the first post. Thank you all!
PROGRESS REPORT BUMP
I have split the game up into chapters. The first chapter begins at the close of the demo to give you an idea of where that is. I have currently programmed up to chapter two and silenttype01 has already beta tested that area. I'm not sure what the next release for the public will be, either another demo or a final release. I'm going to push for a final release, so please be patient!!
Many many thanks to silenttype for being my beta tester and being my nagging critic =D I need a cynical mind.
