But as long as we’re talking about floor vents:

The heating vent is a scenery container. 
It is closed, transparent.

Come on, guys, this thread is for posting spoilers. The venting thread is over here. :stuck_out_tongue:

It would be adventageous to learn how, though, if only to read @Draconis’s clearly significant and not-at-all irrelevent code.

I mean, I can read it, sorta, but how can a floor vent be a vehicle? :thinking:

I needed something that you can GET IN, and then can move from room to room without first exiting it (since some rooms are only connected via the vents), and vehicles turned out to be the easiest way to implement that!

“What do you know about Sumeria?'”

“'I was there. I was the one who suggested they use cuneiform. They said it was too hard to read. I said, ‘That’s the point.’”

This isn’t spoiling anything that’s not in the blurb, but I like this card.

A Magic the Gathering card called "Cold Case Cracker", with the flavor text: "It's a rare privilege to investigate one's own death."

We’re four weeks into the comp. I thought now might be a good time to drop one final Context-Free Spoiler!

Up until now, this could only be played as an unlockable extra from my entry (‘The Den’) – but now it’s available on itch.io as a stand-alone mini-game.

Does this count as interactive fiction? Not really. Is this just for fun? Absolutely. Is this a spoiler for the main game? Well… it’s very context free.
