There are more bugs in it? Damn. I know everything worked at one point. Stuff must have gotten messed up when I rewrote it. I think I started making it when I was 15 and only ever worked on it ever other weekend for a long time. It was probably in development for over a year and a half simply because I didn't actually have much time to put into it and I had no idea how to write in DinkC. A part of me wants to go back and rewrite it again, just to add a sense of correlation/connectivity to the game but I would also really like to focus on making something new. When I rewrote it, I also removed a lot and didn't end up replacing it with anything which is why some areas lack interactivity. The reason I decided to rewrite Dink into a highly apathetic character was because this takes place 15-16 years after he becomes a hero and to me it seems that if you're constantly being requested to save people and do "hero things" you'd eventually get worn out. Like you've seen and done everything already, so nothing's really all that special anymore. I wanted to express that when I rewrote it, but I didn't want to make it obvious. I can get into some deep thoughts on my dmod.

I'm partial to the names for the "quests and distractions" in the guide, actually.
I am too. I only wrote that guide a few months ago though, so I had much clever thoughts of how to name things. The in-game title awards are the same as they were in the original release. At the time I was only wanting to give completely arbitrary titles because the game doesn't make a whole lot of sense anyways, so why should those titles? Poisoning Pidgeons in the park is my second favorite Tom Lehrer song. Masochism Tango comes first for me. Speaking of which... I just remembered.. I have to go..do.. something.
