It's been a while, but you need to find another way to distract the maid from her task. Do you have anything you could use with the vacuum cleaner? Have you tried dropping things on the floor beside the vacuum cleaner? Things that might clog the cleaner? Things like mud.

I still have a WIP that i should really get around to finishing, so I'll go with my ever hopeful maybe.

Sorry. Here: download An Exercise in Viewpoint

You can do this in ADRIFT 4, but it requires two tasks per object per player. There is a demo you can download from the site, should you for any reason not wish to use ADRIFT 5.

I have transcripts for anyone who wants them.

I struggle with this - finding the balance between telling the on-the-rails story I want to unfold, and giving the player freedom to influence and direct the action. With three distinct approachs you either have to write three equal arcs, hope the game has sufficient replay value for people to come...

I have part of a game done, and tomorrow off. so hopefully.
