DavidW says, "Looking at the survey results, All Alone and Slouching Towards Bedlam are still our leading to-play games. However, I have also uploaded all the Floydable Shufflecomp 2015 games." | ||
DavidW asks, "So, should we play All Alone, Slouching, or a Shufflecomp game?" | ||
jenrexrode says, "dunno" | ||
Ghogg says, "I vote shuffle" | ||
Emily arrives, full of neither funk nor fun. | DavidW says, "I'm leading towards Shuffle myself." | |
DavidW says, "I haven't played any of them." | ||
DavidW asks, "Draconis? chaudmin? Emily? What say you?" | ||
chaudmin says, "yes let's do shufflecomp" | ||
Emily says, "I'd say Shuffle, yeah" | ||
DavidW says, "Carried. [grins]" | ||
Roger says, "yay" | ||
AWatt arrives, full of funk, but no fun. | DavidW says, "The games I've loaded are 1) By the Lake, 2) Comrade, 3) Everything We Do Is Games, 4) Heading East, 5) Molly and the Butter Thieves, 6) Starry Seeksorrow, and 7) When the Land Goes Under the Water." | |
DavidW asks, "Do we have preferences? Should I roll a die or just play 'em in alpha order or what?" | ||
Emily says, "I've played 5, 6, and 7" | ||
Ghogg asks, "1, 2, 3, then 4?" | ||
Emily says, "but I can be quiet" | ||
Emily says, "or that" | ||
Emily says, "let's do 1" | ||
DavidW asks, "Fine with me. S'okay with y'all?" | ||
DavidW says, "(I like apostrophes today. Sue me.)" | ||
chaudmin says, "fine by me" | ||
DavidW says, "okay." | ||
AWatt says, "sounds great" | ||
***** NOTE: By The Lake did not work on Floyd ***** | DavidW says, "I'll skip to 2" | |
DavidW says (to Floyd), "load sleepmask comrade" | ||
Floyd ] Shuttle 0800 Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Glorious day, comrade! Of all the countless applicants, you yourself Floyd | have been chosen to represent the great government of the Motherland Floyd | as the political officer -- the zampolit -- in the crown jewel of the Floyd | People's accomplishments: the lunar base. With months of training Floyd | complete, you are finally ready to assume your post. Floyd | Floyd | Comrade Floyd | An Interactive Fiction by Roger Carbol Floyd | Release 1 / Serial number 150506 / Inform 7 build 6L38 (I6/v6.33 lib Floyd | 6/12N) Floyd | Floyd | Shuttle Floyd | The inside of this reusable space vehicle is cramped, but not Floyd | unbearably so for the trip up from Earth. A ramp has opened up, Floyd | leading out into the base. Floyd | Floyd | You can see DUFFY, apparently with some message on its screen, here. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
chaudmin says (to Floyd), "x duffy" | ||
Floyd ] Shuttle 0801 Floyd | > Floyd | > X DUFFY Floyd | Floyd | This large immobile robot is known as DUFFY, which is an acronym Floyd | for... something you can never quite remember. The "U" is for Unit, Floyd | maybe? Anyway, its primary purpose is to analyze various substances Floyd | and objects. It displays any relevant output from its analysis on a Floyd | large integral screen. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says, "Sargent Duffy was the policeman sidekick in Infocom's detective games. Might be a ref." | |
chaudmin says (to Floyd), "read screen" | ||
Floyd ] Shuttle 0802 Floyd | > Floyd | > READ SCREEN Floyd | Floyd | It reads: Floyd | Floyd | MESSAGE FROM COMMAND -- MAY 2 0759 -- COMRADE -- ZAMPOLIT REPORTED Floyd | DECEASED BY SUICIDE. INVESTIGATE PRIOR TO SHUTTLE DEPARTURE AT 2000. Floyd | MAKE ARREST IF POSSIBLE. END MESSAGE. Floyd | Floyd | > | Roger says, "I am at your disposal but I'll otherwise sit back and enjoy." | |

It is a duty Floyd | you take seriously. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says, "This seems to be a sci-fi detective game, I'm guessing." | |
DavidW says, "I guess going out." | ||

chaudmin says (to Floyd), "u" | ||
Floyd ] Dock 0805 Floyd | > Floyd | > U Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Dock Floyd | Small as far as hangars go, but large enough to contain the shuttle Floyd | you arrived in, and afford space for its maintenance.

Emily says, "weird" | ||
Draconis asks, "Shall we press the button?" | ||
Emily says, "sure" | ||
chaudmin says, "maybe check out the other room too" | ||
Draconis says, "Actually we might want to do that first then." | ||
Draconis says, "Not sure if we'll be able to go back and forth freely." | ||
AWatt looks at Draconis. | chaudmin says, "well then" | |

Floyd | Floyd | You can see a coffin here. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says, "We haven't gone far. We can restart if we die this early." | |
Draconis says (to Floyd), "x coffin" | ||
Floyd ] Quarantine Lock 0812 Floyd | > Floyd | > X COFFIN Floyd | Floyd | This insulated box seems to have been originally designed for the Floyd | transport and storage of perishable food. It now serves a nobler, if Floyd | more tragic, purpose. Floyd | Floyd | > | Draconis asks, "Should we look in the coffin?" | |
AWatt asks, "Can we open it? Is that creepy?" | ||
Draconis says, "Might have a clue." | ||
DavidW says, "I think we must open it." | ||
chaudmin says (to Floyd), "open coffin" | ||

chaudmin says (to Floyd), "x body" | ||
Floyd ] Quarantine Lock 0814 Floyd | > Floyd | > X BODY Floyd | Floyd | This must be the previous zampolit officer. His nakedness surprises Floyd | you, but between the autopsy and lack of an open-casket funeral, it Floyd | makes perfect sense. Floyd | Floyd | On the body is a crucifix. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Draconis says (to Floyd), "x crucifix" | ||
Floyd ] Quarantine Lock 0815 Floyd | > Floyd | > X CRUCIFIX Floyd | Floyd | Such a thing is somewhat scandalous, and twice so on a political Floyd | officer. It is pendant from a silver chain, which is beginning to Floyd | show some tarnish. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Draconis says (to Floyd), "x chain" | ||
Floyd ] Quarantine Lock 0815 Floyd | > Floyd | > X CHAIN Floyd | Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | Emily says, "huh" | |
Emily asks, "silver cross --> vampire sci-fi detective story?" | ||
Draconis says, "So the previous zampolit was a Christian. That may be important." | ||
chaudmin says, "might as well pilfer from a dead body" | ||
DavidW says, "I don't know. Maybe." | ||
chaudmin says (to Floyd), "take crucifix" | ||
Floyd ] Quarantine Lock 0816 Floyd | > Floyd | > TAKE CRUCIFIX Floyd | Floyd | Taken. Floyd | Floyd | > | AWatt says, "Might need it for the space vampires" | |
chaudmin says, "indeed" | ||
Draconis says, "Hate those space vampires." | ||
DavidW says, "Robbing the dead is unpleasant, unless you plan to analyze it with DUFFY." | ||
Ghogg asks, "can duffy analyze stuff?" | ||
AWatt says, "Lot of good it did our friend, though" | ||
DavidW says (to Ghogg), "It's supposed to, yes." | ||
Ghogg says, "ah, there's the bit" | ||

Draconis asks, "So do we GIVE things TO DUFFY to analyze?" | ||
AWatt asks, "or ask?" | ||
chaudmin says (to Floyd), "give crucifx to duffy" | ||

chaudmin asks, "what about the space vampires??" | ||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "look in duffy" | ||

Draconis asks, "And why on that particular night?" | ||
DavidW says, "He might've responded to the plate, if not the photo." | ||
Roger says, "Oh I dunno. Also you may want to analyze the medical report, for you completists" | ||

Floyd ] Communications Room 1447 Floyd | > Floyd | > SW Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Communications Room Floyd | Most of the room is filled with radio equipment. There's a Floyd | non-pressure door to the northeast. A delicious smell wafts in from Floyd | the southeast; to the southwest is the greenhouse dome.

Floyd ] Kitchen 1448 Floyd | > Floyd | > SE Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Kitchen Floyd | The room is dominated by a large counter, on which is spread a Floyd | bewildering variety of bowls, knives, and food ingredients. An Floyd | industrial refrigerator stands in one corner; beside it, a strange Floyd | contraption churns away. A non-pressure door is directly to the Floyd | south. The mess hall is conveniently located nearby to the northeast; Floyd | a hall is to the northwest. Floyd | Floyd | You can see Prokopenko here. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
Draconis says (to Floyd), "ne" | ||
Floyd ] Mess Hall 1449 Floyd | > Floyd | > NE Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Mess Hall Floyd | The largest room in the base by a fair margin. There's enough tables Floyd | and chairs here that everyone could eat by themselves if they wanted Floyd | to; perhaps a larger crew was originally planned. Access to the dock Floyd | is afforded to the northwest. The kitchen is conveniently located Floyd | nearby to the southwest. To the northeast, a hall leads to personnel Floyd | quarters and offices.

Draconis says, "That is useful information." | ||
DavidW says, "huh" | ||
Draconis says, "...I hadn't considered that at all." | ||
chaudmin says, "I forgot we're in reduced gravity" | ||
Draconis says, "Same." | ||
DavidW says, "Neither had I" | ||
Roger says, "Wondering if anyone was going to notice that plot hole earlier, yeah. I could have clued it a lot better." | ||

Roger says, "Yeah, good thinking" | ||
Emily goes home. | ||
Emily has disconnected. | Draconis asks, "Does the Astronomer have any more clues?" | |
Draconis asks, "If we showed him the plate, for example?" | ||
Roger says, "no; I hardly had any SHOW at all; just ran out of time" | ||
Draconis says, "If someone else took the photo he might be angry they'd been using his telescope." | ||
Draconis says, "(Makes sense.)" | ||

Floyd ] Shuttle 1500 Floyd | > Floyd | > ABOUT Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | This game was written for the 2015 competition ShuffleComp: Disc 2, Floyd | organized by Neil Butters. The songs that inspired it, to greater or Floyd | (mostly) lesser degrees, are: Floyd | Floyd | - Rossiya by Laibach, from Victor Gijsbers and Dannii Willis; Floyd | - Cha Cha on the Moon by Pat Reader, from Marius Müller; Floyd | - Rocket Man by Iron Horse, from Walter Sandsquish; and Floyd | - Russian Roulette by Rihanna, from Matt Weiner. Floyd | Floyd | Many thanks are due to the organizer, the other entrants and their Floyd | excellent taste in music, and to everyone who votes. I am also Floyd | indebted to Marc Blank for Deadline. Floyd | Floyd | Fair warning: this release has not been betatested. If you decide Floyd | not to play it for this reason, I have nothing but respect for you. Floyd | If you press onwards, I wish you good luck. Floyd | Floyd | -- Roger Carbol Floyd | Floyd | > | Draconis says, "Well, it's been tested now!" | |
Draconis says, "To a limited extent." | ||
Roger says, "Yeah I might work up a better post-comp version, I guess." | ||
Roger asks, "That was, what, a couple hours to finish?" | ||
Draconis says, "Three hours I believe." | ||
Draconis says, "Yeah, it's almost 3:00 now." | ||
DavidW says, "Games usually take longer in a group, though." | ||
Draconis says, "True." | ||
Roger says, "Yeah, but then again a single person might have spent an hour just dicking around with the grilles, so." | ||
DavidW says, "I think I've had enough playing for today. I thank everyone for coming and Roger for his game." | ||
chaudmin exclaims, "thank you!" | ||
Draconis says, "Thanks!" | ||
