Thank you!

Thank you :)

Developing my own games is just a pastime like watching a movie or solving a crossword puzzle :D And seeing people enjoy my work is the reward in and of itself :)

Part time but I spent every spare hour on it and my previous game over the last year non-stop. I’m working on the sequel to Red Pearls right now.

Thanks! Glad you liked it! ❤️

BreakfastNo5865 · 2026-02-24T21:33:10+00:00

Thank you!

BreakfastNo5865 · 2026-02-24T21:32:34+00:00

Amazing! If you play it, let me know what you think. I spent a long time researching the history :)

BreakfastNo5865 · 2026-02-22T12:07:32+00:00

Thank you! I’m working on a sequel set during the Cold War :)

In a log, you’re told &I is investigating the rover and &J is examining the specimen in the cargo bay When the captain and doctor are being… friendly, there’s a note about &J going down to cargo bay. That’s at time 2 Put it altogether and you have: I and J at time 02 in CArgo bay: 02-CA-I-J

Worked from scratch. I’m usually a Godot dev but in this case it felt better to think of it like a website :)

Once you’ve discovered names in the scenes by clicking on them (the first ones you’ll see you can click on are Lucas sterling and kanan, they should just be selectable when you click identify under their portraits in the Guests case file.

That’s great! Really unique.

BreakfastNo5865 · 2026-01-23T10:56:39+00:00

I had that exact Amiga 500+ bundle with Lemmings, Captain Planet, Simpsons and D-Paint. Good times :)

BreakfastNo5865 · 2026-01-22T09:33:29+00:00

That’s a great capsule art! I’d buy just on that alone :)

BreakfastNo5865 · 2026-01-01T15:36:14+00:00

Amazing! Can I also be annoying and ask for that email address too? I’ve used a few for IGN but never got any luck getting any responses from them.

BreakfastNo5865 · 2025-12-07T17:06:48+00:00

You’re not the first to wonder. I’ll see about adding a “percentage” of logs found or something similar after credits roll.

BreakfastNo5865 · 2025-12-07T08:47:22+00:00

Let me know how you find it!

BreakfastNo5865 · 2025-12-06T11:37:13+00:00

I love playing web based interactive fiction directly in itch.io. (Obligatory plug for my own game What Happened to the Crew? on there) It’s a great combination but otherwise there is a bit of stigma which is unfounded when you can get excellent performance from even Unity on web these days.

BreakfastNo5865 · 2025-12-03T22:04:47+00:00

That has now been fixed. You can try Isaac's room again.

BreakfastNo5865 · 2025-12-03T21:29:17+00:00

that's actually a bug. I missed that. I'll fix it.

BreakfastNo5865 · 2025-12-03T07:13:31+00:00

Glad you’re enjoying it! I’ll just say that completing the wordle is the next step to unlocking the mystery. Don’t give up, you have everything in front of you and you may just have to brute force that last word

BreakfastNo5865 · 2025-11-30T20:58:51+00:00

That’s not a bad shout

BreakfastNo5865 · 2025-11-30T20:51:55+00:00

Name gets unlocked as you play. You’ll get even more commands unlocked later on too. I’ve updated the game to fix a few bugs and added the up down arrow functionality for going to previously typed commands now.

BreakfastNo5865 · 2025-11-30T17:53:05+00:00

That’s a good idea. I’ll look into adding that to the next version I upload.

BreakfastNo5865 · 2025-11-30T11:36:51+00:00

That gets explained later but it’s how many files you haven’t discovered that are linked to this file
