F.A.Q.

Are there plans to create a full game out of NOTC?

We have returned to the world of Cephalopods in other games and will defiitely do so again however there are currently no plans to expand directly on NOTC. As you can tell from the 'preview' on the title screen there were plans for an expanded version of NOTC, however we were busy on other game projects at the time. Since it was released in 2008 the sort of audio heavy storytelling techniques used in it have also become more common.

Will there ever be a Mac/Linux version?

Unlikely. As much as we'd like to have it available for all operating systems the older version of GameMaker it was created in doesn't easily support porting to Mac or Linux.

I'm Getting an "XINPUT1_3.dll not found" error / My gamepad isn't working.

You'll need to update your copy of Direct X from here.

The game doesn't quit when I hit Esc.

This is an intermittent issue with newer versions of Windows and games created with GameMaker 8 and earlier. You can still exit by hitting Alt+F4.
