Hey, I got this game years ago, but it says nothing available to download. Please fix it, thx!
Interesting
no game, I managed to pick up the game on sale, made some kind of bonus
might've been the fact that i was on new medication, but dang this game gave me so much anxiety /lh
other than that, this game sorta blew me away, its purretty amazing!! the story's been stuck with me since i played it, i want to discover efurrything about it (even tho it'll purrobably make me anxious again dsjkgdsg)
i keep meaning to read the bonus doc since i claimed the game when it was free, but i keep getting told no files are available to download no matter what i do :/c
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that you enjoyed my game. I'm sorry if it triggered your anxiety, that wasn't my intention. For the bonus doc, you can try exiting and re-clicking on "Download or claim" and see if the file shows up. Or you can go to my new website at https://macsimilian.github.io/games/TheBurningLocks/TheBurningLocks.html where they are downloadable for free :)
good short game
I'll admit, that game was better than expected. The first playthrough I thought it was kind of meh, but then I got to the end, saw the 0 of 5, and played again for a better experience. I really like finding secret things like that.
Great game! 2 questions though:
1. The cheese factory is actually a euphemism for smoking (which is in turn a euphemism for something else), and its counterpart in the subconscious symbolizes the cause and effect of this lifestyle on the brothers' lives. You can find out more about the creation of the subconscious, factory, and other BS in the bonus document (free over the summer sale)
2. No, nothing happens if you beat it 500 times
Thanks! I read the bonus doc. Great stuff
I clicked Claim, but no files show up to download.
Try exiting and re-clicking on "Download or claim" and see if the file shows up.
OK, once I clicked "Download or Claim" again the file showed up and I could download it. But even now if I click "Download" at the top of the page where it says "You own this game", it takes me to a download page where it says "Nothing is available for download yet." Weird. Thanks for the game and bonuses!
Oh wow, this game is sooo good and really deep too. Love it! :)
