Public demo 2 of The Orphanage is actually the best klik game ever - even it's not a game actually. Effects are just awesome. AI is really realistic. Bullet time is perfect. You should definitely post a new demo. Hope you'll finish it as soon, as possible, because I can't wait more!
PS: Don't carry about optimisations. Demo works perfect on 1,4 GHz
I been caught up in a lotta work recently sorry guys, the project is still going strong though.
Thing is I actually have most of the levels done, I'm just reworking the engine at the moment. When I saw HWA as a possibility, I eagerly prepared the engine for HWA by deleting incompatible effects etc. Then I got bored of waiting for HWA to get to a usable stage so I just started tweaking and making additions to the engine.
My current plan is to see the changes I'm making through to the end, then knuckle back down on the level design and get the project finished once and for all.
I doubt I will release another demo, I think the time taken coordinating another demo release would be better spent on the game itself.

I just tried the demo, that game is INTENSE. I love how when oyu get shot the camera goes crazy and all that stuff. Please finish this game I'm begging you!! (By the way maybe you could add a bloodless option for moms)
You can log off any time you like, but you can't ever leave.
when you play it its difficult, but nice. i like that you have to work to improve your skill at this game. played it long time ago, and i liked it. good luck with it Ben.
this is one of my favourite indie games to date, but one suggestion.
alot of people with big or widescreen monitors cant run 320x240 or any resolution under 640 at fullscreen, including my own, so a prompt at the beginning or a setup exe/ini would be nice, with available screen modes like 320 fullscreen, 320 windowed, 320 2x windowed and 320 3x windowed would be great, its also a very simple fix for this problem.
thank you and great work so far your ai is amazing!
