There are 16 backer items in total imagined by Kickstarter backers:
[quote]We’ll name the brand of one of the inventory items in the game after you and also create an artistic product logo for it (subject to our approval).
For example: “Paul Tyma’s Floor Wax and Rat Poison - Cleans your Floors Shiny Bright and Kills Your Rats Shiny Dead”[/quote]
It’s more of an optional hint I’d say, this puzzle can be solved quite easily without this hint by brute forcing (but I’ve never okay it that way, is the dialog option always present? Maybe not.).
Those are also special (e.g. special animations and dialog for different characters):
Eric’s Eye Magic (I’ve seen an achievement)
HaoLinKinYao Tea (no achievement?)
(Levo’s Bear Repellent)
Philipp’s Dangerous Dövice (this item is a game changer!)
snake in a box (small animation in inventory only)
Oh, I don´t know that. If it´s not that would make using the decoder at least once mandatory.
Oh yes, I forgot that. You gotta use that on 4 of the characters once and then again on one of the four on a second playthrough to make that work (there is no way to make Franklin cry).
Walking through the woods with this in your posession makes the random backround growls stop.
Oh, yes and I forgot that this also grants you an achievement.
In my first playthrough, I completely forgot to have the red gel decoder and I “decoded” the text using GIMP. A few second later I realized that I had the red gel decoder in the inventory.
No. But that’s because I was joking when I said that I’m colorblind.
Anyway, you avatar would appear greyish only to someone suffering of monochromacy, which is quite rare. The most common kinds of color blindness are caused by a lack of some of the red and green cones, meaning that these people do see colors, just not the colors that we see.
Someone with a lack of red cones would see your avatar greenish, for example.
Yes the unability to distinguish between red and green is the most common form. I´ve seen some graphs on the internet that have an option to change to a “colorblind” setting which changes red-green to magenta-cyan which seems to be a combination everybody is able to perceive.
