BEN is a die-hard, old-school LucasArts Adventure fan.
He has one foot stuck in the 90s, his feet never leave the floor, and he’s happiest collecting any old junk he can lay his hands on, in the hopes of combining it all together to solve a satisfying puzzle.
His cohort and sidekick DAN
...has aspirations to be the next big hit indie platform character. He's got everything he needs: he's hip, he's sensitive, and his nose is a different colour to the rest of his face.LAIR OF THE CLOCKWORK GOD sees you switching between both characters and using their unique abilities together in a race-against-time effort to stop all the Apocalypses happening simultaneously, by teaching an old computer about feelings.
Solve classic point-and-click style puzzles as Ben to create unique upgrade items for Dan, so he can jump higher, run faster and blast away at everything with a shiny new gun. Then, run and jump as Dan to unlock new areas and exciting new puzzles for Ben!
If you haven't played the old Dan and Ben games (you should), or you have but can't remember what happened, there's NO NEED TO WORRY! Lair of the Clockwork God is a STANDALONE Dan and Ben Adventure, which means you need to know absolutely nothing about Ben There, Dan That! or Time Gentlemen, Please! whatsoever. None of the original plot is referenced, the characters are re-introduced expertly, etc etc. It's all good.
It's been a couple of days wince the last update. I've been saving them up for one BIG HUGE FIX:
- Fixed a typo, that's the level we're down to now.
- Fixed a dialogue option that should have been switched off, but wasn't
- Fixed an issue where showing Dan a bra would cause Ben to never stop looking
- Fixed an issue where killing Ben would make everything go black
- Fixed Ben being unable to teleport in Chapter 11, if running from a load
- Fixed Ben sliding along weirdly, using his nose to drag himself painfully across the floor if he dies
- Flipping a switch twice and then dying no longer gets you stuck in an impossible situation
- De-subtled a colour-based puzzle
- Amalgamated some controls
IMPORTANT: based on player feedback PUSH and CYCLE HOTSPOT now share a key (default X on a gamepad)
If you're in the middle of your game, this change may prove confusing! The old button still works, so hopefully not. Email me if this chance is bad!
As always if anything has gone WRONG with this build, because I'm an idiot, you can rollback to a previous version by opting into the Beta branch called "rollback".
PLEASE LEAVE A STEAM REVIEW if you played the game. Steam reviews feed an algorithm, the algorithm gets me views, and views get me sales, which I need. Thank you!
