The game Tripkey has been released, is available for playing, and can be downloaded from

http://in-the-matter-of.com/tripkey.zip

it's about 1 1/2 meg mostly from a video file that's included in the game. This is intended as a beta release to check for release for people to find bugs, errors and misspellings before release to the "general public."

I am interested in comments, especially whether the hints are sufficient to be able to figure out how to solve the puzzles.

Tripkey is a game where you're trying to get to the exit. But you have to do a few things to get there. First, you have to get out of the control center, and you do that by getting the eponymous Tripkey, the key to taking trips.

Once you have that, you can teleport to several places and find, buy or steal what you need to escape.

This game implements a portable transporter, and that's the name of the object that does this, the Tripkey.

The program was written in Hugo, and a copy of the Interpreter for Windows is included in the zip file in case you don't have it.

For best results, comments e-mailed to me about the game should have "TRIPKEY" in the subject so I look for those first. A specific mailbox has been set up at tri...@viridian-development.com in addition to my own.


Questions and suggestions are welcomed.
