HALLOWE3N

My entry to the 3-Color Jam (#3CJam), where you had to create a "spooky" game that used no more than 3 colours (and yes, Black is a colour!).  It is an attempt to make a short adventure game, based heavily on the movie "Halloween" by John Carpenter.

I created it for the PICO-8 virtual console, using my SCUMM-8 point & click adventure game engine.

For best results: turn the lights down and the sound up! :D

CONTROLS:

• Mouse is recommended
• (Arrows / Z / X - will also work)

Point & Click Primer:

• If never played a "Point+Click" adventure game before...
• Simply use the cursor and (left) click where you want the player to Walk To.
• To interact with objects, click on the Verb you wish to perform, then click on the object.
• For example, to Pick-up the Knife... simply click "PICK-UP" and then click on the "Knife" object in the scene.
• When hovering the cursor over objects, their default verb/action (if applicable) will be highlighted. In this case, you can simply Right-click on the object for the default verb/action to be performed.
