Thank you @RonGilbert@David @robert.megone @Calypso @OctaviNavarro!

That was a fun diversion. The end credits made me laugh out loud several times (especially the very end.)

Still 10 photographs to go… I am enjoying this, savouring the increasingly difficult puzzles and getting stuck.

The OCD of a character whose name I won’t mention to not spoil a possible puzzle…reminds me of Zak’s. Whose idea was this? @David’s? @RonGilbert’s?

Ok, here is the spoiler: those darned kids-a-renos these days… not closing my cabinet-a-renos

It should drop tomorrow (Monday). It takes us about 4x as long as recording it to edit it, and this was a long one.

Funniest end credits ever 😂

Today I had access to a physical computer with Win10 so I could finally try the game!

My experience with this new engine:

- I played it using a touchscreen with no mouse connected. I had to map right-click to a keyboard key because long-touch didn’t work (it executed single-click right away and verbs didn’t pop up).

- Dragging was quite a drag (hehe) on an 60cm (23.6") touchscreen, but actually not that bad (may even work in a 10 hour game since in such game you aren’t using items every 2 seconds).

- I had no technical issues, the only minor annoyance was that changing audio output device during play (e.g. switching from speakers to headphones) didn’t work. This may not be a problem with a real game where I can just save and restart the game.

I’m just curious in what’s the point of a 23" touch screen

I know, right? Who would need such a ridiculously small one! 23 point 6 inches on the other hand… 😉

It’s great for use with multiple people, without the need to pass a mouse around. This one you can even lay flat on a table!  
For a particular video game genre called _point’n’touch adventures_ it’s also nice.

My PC has a 23’’ touchscreen 😛 but I disabled it.
