Escape the Brothel - e-vinyl - Jam Entry
Windows | Windows (Fixed font)
Hi everyone, we're a 2 man team participating for the first time on Ludum Dare. We wanted to use Stencylworks to facilitate development but unfortunately last minute collaboration problems led us to use Adventure Game Studio with no previous experience. Everything turned out pretty well considering we only had 48 hours.
Anyway, we decided to make a quick and fun adventure game - we attempted to immitate the classics by doing stuff like upscaling art we drew on GraphicsGale (tough 50% of the team sticks with MS Paint).
We're both pretty sure there are still some bugs so don't hesitate to comment if you find one! We still have a few hours remaining to fix anything!
Note: Due to a horrible mistake instead of uploading a version with a better font we simple re-uploaded the old version instead, here's the actual latest revision

Decent humour, getting through wasn't too hard, but it was an interesting little experience. The mixed-resolution graphics were kind of hard on my eyes at times, but that's likely just me. Nice work
For some reason the mouse cursor got stuck as soon as I put the mouse inside the window. The cursor simply wouldn't move in a continous fashion. This made the game hard to play for me.
Can you tell us how to replicate that bug exactly? Me and my friend tried to put the mouse inside the window, but it seems to be working fine :p thank you for spotting that bug btw ;)
It's possible to escape without unlocking the window, using the poster before attracting someone's attention works anyway.
Nice start for a full game!
One bug I spotted: You can get the key for the window twice, if you look under the bed again, after opening the window.

Wasn't very hard to find out what to do, but it was fun nonetheless. Congrats!
