Would anyone like a quick beta-test peek at this IfComp24 entry before the deadline? You’re more than welcome.

It’s a 20 minute long, web-browser game. Writing is not my strong point so any feedback would be highly appreciated as are, of course, bug reports.

Doctor Who and the Dalek Super-Brain

Prepare to hide behind the sofa!

You are Doctor Who in this interactive graphic adventure. The Doctor faces his arch-enemies, the Daleks, in a battle of wits and choices. Choose wisely and you may just prevail, choose badly and you’ll be swiftly exterminated!

But it’s worse! The Daleks have constructed a giant computer “Super-Brain” with a single goal: universal domination. Can you and your assistant, Bex, outwit this formidable foe? Who knows?

Is this what was teased at the Boston IF meetup last month? It looks great.

Indeed, this looks so far up my alley that it is illegally parked in a loading zone. I should have some time over the weekend to play it.

If you want the perspective of someone who’s never seen a single episode of Doctor Who, I can give it a try, but I may not be the target audience here!

Thanks very much. I’ve sent you some info.

I would most definitely welcome an independent fresh perspective. I know you have your own entry to finish, so a quick look would be totally adequate. I’m really after additional testing on other peoples systems - in case it just fails altogether. You know, how things like to do!

Thanks a lot. Message sent.
