The visuals and effects in this game were extra well done.

Thank you very much!

If you can't get out of the observatory after entering, pull up the "stuck door" note and use it on the door.

Way to break the fourth wall :)

Spoiler: If anyone is stuck on the lock combo, remember the MC's hint that we might have the answer outside the game in our world.

Really liked this chapter and hoping for an update on Chapter 4 soon. The only part that confused me a bit was the communication mirrors. Up until then, every rule and trick of the mirror world made sense. However, the game did not really explain how two mirrors could be connected to two peoples' unique locations as opposed to a reflection of the room. On my second playthrough, it occurred to me that the mirrors could be each other's twin, which could explain the phenonium.

Edit: Wow! Did not expect you to be checking comments. Thanks for letting me know Chapter 4 is on its way. "The Splitting" is definitely one of my favorite web series. Good luck on development :)

The pocket mirrors are indeed each other's twin!

Chapter 4 is still in early stages, we're working on it and hope to post an update as soon as we could.

I remember how much I loved this game. Unfortunately, it's not working in Ruffle yet -- the game freezes as soon as the animation after clicking New Game finishes.

Cool game. Glad to see I'm not the only one playing it in 2023. Press Space to agree with me :)

What a unique style of gameplay. Flipping back through the pages to solve the game was really fun.

Good game. I really appreciated the hint system. Did not need one until the very end and was worried it would give me a random hint as opposed to a relevant hint, but it knew exactly where I was in the game and what I needed next (a wiring chart) and gave a good clue on how to find it.

Fun. Having some issues in the first forest. Most of the exits such as Happy Forest and Salmon Forest don't work. About the only one that does is the one that takes you to the second forest with the pigs. Then the exits in that forest, the town and the maze work fine. It's just the first forest that has issues. Do they open up as you gain quests and XP because I have run out of locations to explore and they still don't work.

splashykarp responds:

Sorry for the delay. The First Forest area has invisible walls until you reach a certain point. There's supposed to be a prompt that let's you know. However, it appears that the prompt is no longer working and I am unsure why it is no longer working.

From what it sounds like you need to go to the castle and talk to the King. He will give you a mission that will unlock the East Exit of Prunina.
-Complete that mission and then head to where the Pig is and the path will open for the next Dungeon area.
-Complete that Dungeon and the path for Salmon Retreat will open.
-At the end of that will be the 3rd Dungeon (Aquanid's Swamp). Finish that.
-You will then have access to the Southern Areas of Goblin Forest.
-Harpy Forest opens up once you complete the 3rd Dungeon.

As for what I remember just beat the 2nd Dungeon and the area should open up to you. We will be putting out a new update here soon that should fix the issue. Just trying to work it out so that save files don't end up deleted.

Edit: This game is now loading in Ruffle for me, or at least in Chrome. I needed a walkthrough to find some things because the hover text was messed up and a glitch stopped me from getting the ending scene, but I was able to see it (or something close to it) in the walkthrough.

(Old post) To anyone reading this, this game stopped working long before Flashpocolypse. I just ran it in Ruffle in hopes it would bypass whatever glitched in Flash, but it doesn't.

For the record, this game is actually a demo and the full version is on Steam, though I would suggest checking to make sure it doesn't have the glitch too before buying.

If you really want to see the demo, I have heard some flash games that have been broken for years work in Bluemaxima's Flashpoint, so if you have Flashpoint, you could try it there, else find a walkthrough on YouTube.

P.S. I did play the game once way back when and to my minimal recollection, it was decent. I might have had to check the walkthrough a couple times, but that's not uncommon when I play a complex point-and-click-game.
