Walker & Silhouette is now available from the IF Archive. This is probably the most stable of all the download links available, so if you have (or are thinking of) linking to the zip directly, please use:

Update-me-do

I've slipped version 9 of Walker & Silhouette into the existing download links. This fixes a couple of small glitches you may have seen if you tried certain standard IF actions, and also leaves out the superfluous Picasa.ini files that got swept up in the last zip.

Unless I seriously botched something up with this update, this'll be the last version of the game. I'll upload it to the IF Archive over the weekend (although it may be some time before they process it, I'd imagine, especially over Christmas).

What's next?

Right, I'm going to wait until next weekend, then upload a version of Walker & Silhouette that fixes any problems that have cropped up. I'll upload it to the IF Archive too, which should provide a more stable download link than the present Googlepages one...

Walker & Silhouette - Download

Misfits in a strange city; crime fighters grappling with the weirdest mysteries; rivals who become partners until the last:


Walker & Silhouette
A keyword only adventure.

Team up with a dashing detective and an iconoclastic flapper to solve absurd and unfathomable crimes in this interactive story - where you control the action just by typing or clicking highlighted words in the text.

Walker & Silhouette uses a similar keyword system to Blue Lacuna, and experiments with applying it to various forms of interaction: talk, investigate, solve puzzles and fight villains... using only single word commands.
