guys are you serious about all this bugs?
Yes. It's ridiculous how many ways you can soft lock your progress just by casually exploring and clicking things.
I'm slowly making a walk-through for the game in my spare time (which, unfortunately, is somewhat minimal at the moment). I'll be documenting what needs to be done at each major step, locations of items, symbols for stat-ups, etc. What I should be doing, in addition to that, is nailing down every typo in the script while I'm at it. Holy crap. I've said it before and it bears repeating: tackling bugs and text errors is best done as a game develops rather than when it's one giant mess upon release. A small patch to fix up necessary capitalization, punctuation, and similar issues would be a great thing at this point.
Edit: I decided to restart and tackle the typo/grammar stuff along the way. I haven't even put the key in the electrical box -- quite literally the first thing you need to do -- and there's already a page of notes about text fixes.
