First i downloaded the flash-version and had an endless drive on the road, after visiting the different places in the right order!
But now, with the WinProj-version i came to the end!!!
Cugel, you made a really great game [img]images/icones/icon15.gif[/img]

A magnificent effort cugel.

I tried your first version, enjoyed it, and its promise. A game with interest, and pitfalls...

Second date was different. I experienced all the frustrations and emotions expressed by others in this thread, but the solution was there all the time - just needed some thought.

I agree that less linearity would be a bonus, and there are a couple of problems with re-appearing sweater and screens from behind the sofa, but I would be the last to complain as I wouldn't know where to start such an enterprise as this.

I am now eagerly awaiting 'Third date', and hoping for a more complex story.

Many many thanks for your efforts.

Very, very nice game.
I really appreciate the "respect women" aspect of your work.
Thanks a lot, Cugel

I agree. It's refreshing to see such a quality that is lacking in so many games out there right now.

Yeah, I figured it out on my first try this morning. I guess I hadn't paired the right drink with the right order before. That, or I was still missing the bathing suit. Again, many thanks to Arnulf for the Tab key hint - I don't think I would've ever found the bathing suit if not for that.

First in the house you get something somewhere you have never collected:First the house must take the camera is in the corner
then you can be advised to check further, somewhere else after the dining room and then take a bikini
then choose your drinks wellin a bar you wager tequila. Bar-garden-lake-desert That's it
Members do not like first time posters rushing madly in to the waters of the Lagoon to show their expertise in solving problems. Our general approach is provide a subtle clue, sometimes a more direct hint, but we don't appreciate an unsanctioned walkthrough. Players generally do not like to have their fun spoilt by such exuberance.

Edits have been made to preserve that concept.

can anybody tell me, why just the pilot fishes like ace43 in the lagoon have to give all hints and so destroy the seeking fun of every other users? [img]images/icones/icon5.gif[/img]
if somebody really stucks, he can become the necessary hints in a PM!
ace43, it would be nice, if you delete your post!

In relation to the cited remark I've subtly edited the comment.

That said I do think that anyone who needs any information can find it within these two pages, or go back to Projects where the Brenda game is discussed. Now there is not a coherent walkthrough (like knock at the door, shake her hand....) but any intelligent person should be able work things out from those two sources, and there is very little reading compared to "Desires and Submission"!

@ 60 & Squeeks: I'm glad the both of you took the liberty, cause when I had done it Ace wouldn't be an ace anymore, prolly he would be a . if no less.

ace is probably not to blame - after all, he's just an ickle pilot fishey and four cards short of a full house!
