Well, you end up getting a job which involves going round the galaxy in search of a rare (illegal) drug for a large cash reward, of course. With 4 different planets to visit, a short bonus section to unlock at the end, and..er.. probably some other attributes. In the 31st Decemeber build, the music soundtrack isnt complete so a lot is recycled. Any releases after that will have the full soundtrack. There's a walkthrough to get up to where the demo left off right here: http://www.agagames.com/agswalkthroughs/soldb.php?cmd=showGame&id=51 NOTE: Please read the readme.txt about the interface.

Posted by Alexhans on 2008-03-25 at 04:45 (IP logged): HAAHAAHAHAHAHAHAA Great game!!!! Great humor ! Nice animations (Really big effort)! But the end was CRAP! hahahaa no, it was excellent. You should be proud. Not to hard, not to easy, I got stuck a couple of times (That Goddamed stick to get the paper!!!). An amazing trait of this game was it's unpredictability. You couldn't guess what was going to happen. When You had to toss the ring and you knocked out the rasta man instead was supreme. Oh! I forgot! Great Sound & music. I grew addicted to the main theme. And it went along so well with the moments of the game. Well thanks for making the game. Please! don't avoid doing a sequel, no matter how long it takes. And Include pappabiscuit and Bastard! hahaha Alexhans Posted by jkohen on 2006-01-08 at 09:38 (IP logged): This is a fun game. I just wanted to say that, and that the ending sucks (in a Monkey Island 2's end way of sucking). This is not bad, you know; but now I want to play part 2. Posted by JSE on 2005-07-15 at 10:50 (IP logged): Nice lighthearted SF comdey game providing light and relaxed entertainment. Generally well-constructed puzzles — but quirky and sometimes annoying controls. Posted by straston on 2004-12-13 at 10:22 (IP logged): A very enjoyable game. :) Posted by Crazydudenate on 2004-09-27 at 22:49 (IP logged): All I can say is... Wow! This game is awesome, a must download. There are loads of funny characters like the ship salesman, Pappabiscuit & bastard, the bounty hunter terminator, and mozes. It has a lot of similartities to monkey island... but that is ok. Only bad part is where you are trying to "slay the desert worm". Overall, I give it a 8/10! Posted by Quinny on 2004-08-05 at 07:17 (IP logged): Very nice game! Had some nice ideas and near the end the plot built up a lot. I noticed some similarities to Monkey Island, not that there's anything wrong with that. Well worth playing, for sure! Posted by lissette311 on 2004-05-15 at 15:49 (IP logged): The game was cool, I ended up planting all the seeds, so I saw the "bonus section" at the end. Pretty funny. Some of the items and puzzles made little sense, but that's kinda the feel of the game anyway. A must play. Posted by Ryvvn on 2004-02-17 at 16:14 (IP logged): This game is very funny! Starts out slow at first, but once you get into it, it becomes quite comical. Some scenes and jokes are similar to those of older games (like the ship salesman), but still work nonetheless. A great adventure that I'm glad I gave myself the time to experience. BONUS SECTION IS A MUST SEE! If you haven't figured out where to plant all the seeds for the bonus section, find a walkthrough to help you, it's worth it. Can't wait for the sequel, and by the way, I did NOT think the ending was crap, I happened to like it :P (viewing the bonus section will make that last statement clear)
