Max, didn't you make "What's going on over there?" by stretching your window though? |

I don't think resize has ever worked for me. I actually never knew you were supposed to be able to. I always just use the brackets... |

A ctrl-arrow secret! And it even seems to work in spite of OSX... ;-) |

There are lots of secrets, Mary. ;) I plan to make them more obvious... |

The square brackets [] are great. I didn't realise that you could do that. |

I fixed delete for the next version, since that is easy. |

Resizing: Hmm. If it's something that happens on the mac but not on windows, it's probably an issue with the SDL (the graphics toolkit I'm using). That's annoying since it's hard for me to fix. I seem to remember this working once upon a time though. Is that right? I'll check next time I'm on a mac and see what I can find.
Kirima: Yeah, delete and import don't work, now that I've changed the way player files are stored. But if you just move the player files out of the directory manually (when the game isn't running) then they won't show up any more. I'll fix this soon.
Mary: Try the brackets ] and [ to zoom in and out. Also ctrl-arrows will scroll around a little. Animation is turned off when you're zoomed out, though.
Anonymous: Sure. The panel at the bottom can be pushed down by a bomb, and then the bots start walking towards you. You want them to get to the button and push it, so that it opens the blue. But the bomb that's there has a short fuse so it blows up before they get there. Soooo.... |

A zoom would be a great idea as I have to keep changing my monitor resolution to view some of the levels. If I keep it on 800 x 600 it works well but i can only see part of the game but on high resolution (1280 x 1024) I can see everything but everything slows down to an unacceptable degree. |

I deleted the player ctrl-d, but the broken files are still there, I guess that's why players wouldn't disappear. But ctrl-d should work anyway - I think noone noticed because noone ever deletes players! ;-) |

I can't delete the " **ERROR** (-1) " players! I DID delete them, but now there are showing up again??? To avoid crashes, I don't got back to editor, but I'm doing backups just in case. |

Hmm. Threw my banjo away a few years ago, as it was unplayable.
Also, I took it apart by then and didn't know how to put it back together again. |
| |
Are there any hints on how to solve tutorial 21? I figured out the top line of bombs with the lazer thing, but am totally not understanding this tutorial from then on. |
| |
Actually, yeah I'm in the same boat. If I resize the window, the black border becomes larger to fill in the extra area but the actual puzzle window stays the same size... |

Man that would be pretty overboard even if it were a Quake level! |

mm: Thanks! I'm glad you're reading more than just Escape forums now. =)
J: OK, you're on!
C: Oops, that's what I thought you were talking about! To clarify: His Sophomoric Effort is done, yes. I'm almost done with Curious Incident, and enjoying it. There have been only two egregious math mistakes so far, one of which was the reason for the original fatwa. But I try not to read when I'm supposed to be writing, since reading is the opposite of writing. |

I didn't even know it should be possible to resize the window! OSX 10.3.9 as well - the window stays always (game size) 24/15. I'm used to walk around more or less blind to find out what's going on ;-) |

First, thanks for saving my sanity. I get to play at work while having lunch. It's nice to escape. (pun intended)
On my home computer (Apple G4, OS 10.3.9) I am unable to properly resize the game window to see more of the game. What I get is a white box where escape should be. On my work computer (Wintel? OS XP) I do not have this problem. Have you or anyone else encountered this problem? This has happened fro OS 10.1 to present. |
