I Know What You Fixed Last Summer

Yikes, sorry about that title. I should have gone with Ghost In The Shell Script. Actually, shh, forget I said that, I'll use it another time. Ok here's whats new! - Not a lot. - New Autosave in Day 5 (at the start of the third/final round of questioning) (did you know Day 5 is a murder mystery?! because it so is.) - Cleaned up some code in Day 5 that prevents a rare issue when questioning Pendleton (thank you PsyD Mom!) - One time, the word Irish was said and it wasn't capitalized. So. Now it is. - Another time, there was an extra "a" in a sentence. And now it's not. Oh! Something fun! There's a super cool Player's Guide/Companion to all the must-see moments in the game and it's now included in the PC version's game folder! It can also be found on the website: Players Guide- Cant-Miss Companion to The Phantom Fellows Also, while I strongly recommend you instead use the in-game hint system, there is an official walkthrough on the website as well! Finally, if you enjoyed your time with my game and haven't already, I'd greatly appreciate a positive review, it really helps out a solo dev like myself :) And as always, thank you for playing The Phantom Fellows!

Ghost Portraits by Olan Mills

Are we... did that Olan Mills reference land? Here, I'll explain it into being funny, see they were the quintessential 80's family portrait people and this build has all new ghost portraits so that's why, well, that's the why. I regret going this route. But I'd hate to waste a whole, terrible paragraph so on with the show! - Fixed an uncommon bug in Day 4 that caused a crash - Fixed a single spelling error (I'llll never tell) (teehee) - Sorry about that teehee up there - Intro music over the menu lowered yet again I think I've lowered it a few in every single update and it was still a little loud for streamers - Added more direction and clarity to the opening dialog in Day 5, should a player try to leave before briefing is completed - Finally, the ghost's have new portraits and I think they look ah-mazing, shek 'em out! And as always, thank you for playing (and leaving a positive review for) The Phantom Fellows!

Bring Da [REDACTED] Ruckus!

- Lower default volume (streamers had been kinda yelling over the title screen) - Englebert has a new speech portrait that is up to 40% more ghostly! - Minor art adjustments to a few sprites to avoid any unintended similarities to other works - Improved room art in... one of the rooms. Look, it's the one room that's kinda hidden so I can't say - "Exit" mouse cursor for a few rooms where the exit might not be apparent - Other stuff. Gotta have a bullet point for just, stuff. Possibly even important stuff, who really knows Thank you for playing The Phantom Fellows!

Murder on the Apparitional Express

-Added a lot of new hints to Day 5 (thanks MysteryCapybara) -Additional small enhancements and conveniences that don't sound very fun spelled out but I assure myself was worth it. YOU'LL SEE, YOU'LL MAYBE SEE I really just wanted to get these hints to everyone because with them, Day 5 is pretty air-tight as far as help when you need it. Thank you for playing The Phantom Fellows!

[ 2024-10-23 06:29:30 CET ] [ Original post ]

Another Spooky Patch

-Crucial Fix to Day 5 where Englebert would suddenly refuse to talk to you. Which was funny because you got ghosted by a ghost but it's actually, it was a pretty big bug. (thanks Anna!) -Fix to Day 3 where a mysterious banana peel would appear when it shouldn't have. This sounds like a joke but it's actually a very serious banana peel-related problem. (thanks Highbury!) And this is a spooky patch because I wasn't eating halloween candy this time, but I was eating rice cakes and that's a pretty scary actuality. Thank you for playing The Phantom Fellows!

The Phantom Fellows Releasing in 2024!

Fellow Adventurers! Hi! Hey. Sup. Starting this with Fellow Adventurers gives this whole thing a real hear ye hear ye vibe, right? Like now I don't know how to frame this, it's all suddenly very Monty Python-y in my head. Okay look, listen, let's not make this a whole thing, just, here's a quick update: I'm almost done, omg this was kinda hard. But also, I gave the artwork quite a massive overhaul a few months ago, maybe it was a year now, doesn't matter, and so the original demo now makes me sad to look at. The original demo is like my game's awkward puberty stage and now I want all pics of it removed from the internet. So, at the end of January (2024) I will be releasing an updated Demo, featuring all the new art and the new UI and just, all the new everything. Okay demo portion covered, SHEK. On to the full release! First of all, gross, hate that wording. Next of all, the full game is about to enter public beta testing! While it's being tested and fixed, and tested and fixed, I will also be creating and recording the soundtrack. I have no firm idea of when it'll be done and while this was kind of a 'on the DL' thought, if you're reading this, you deserve to know, I'm hoping to have the game ready for the Adventure Game Hotspot Fan Fair, this summer. For reasons. Possibly related to being in the Adventure Game Hotspot Network and wanting to bring some show n tell with me to the, the thing. The convention. Also come to the convention, it's gonna be rad. Ok I'm all done, thanks for reading this, please tell people about it or retweet stuff or like, I don't know, drink more water? Okay good talk. I hope you're all doing well, I love you, don't do a mur- oh wait, wrong, that's a different thing. Paul

The Phantom Fellows Release Update

Fellow adventurers! Ok and please don't yell at me but, I'm delaying the release date. But don't mourn the delay, celebrate the reason or whatever because the truth is, it came down to- make a ton of sacrifices for the sake of not having to write this, or, hold firm and release the best possible game I can make. And I love this game, I've been working on it full time for almost 3 years now and these have been the best 3 years of my life. I cannot wait to share this with you and with your support, I'll continue to give this everything I have! This is the best community on the planet, thank you for your motivating and relentless kindness Paul Also, Spring ish, 2023

Oliver Cobblestone can see and communicate with a dead. Not the dead, just a one Englebert Picklebender who has been in an ethereal entanglement with Oliver for many years. Together they run The Phantom Fellows, a paranormal investigation service that provides the breathers that hire them peace from hauntings, while bringing closure and rest to the floaters who torment the living, and often, themselves.

Take control of Oliver and Englebert in this point and click adventure comedy as you explore the town of Elderberry, Colorado and spend 7 days in the life of The Phantom Fellows. Share laughs with the living and the respiratorily challenged in a game where exploration is rewarded and there is more to the story than meets the eye.

Use Oliver's ability to... be alive, or switch to Englebert if the physical world is in the way. Negotiate with spirits, some of which seek closure, others a long lost possession and even some who just enjoy a good pranking- I mean, haunting. Don't forget to also provide proof of service to the breather that hired you, they will need more than Oliver's word for it and seeing is believing!

Throughout your week with The Phantom Fellows you will meet many breathers, plenty of floaters and as you navigate through each day's task, something more malevolent begins lurking in the shadows, with it's eye on Oliver and an aim set on something bigger, something... otherworldly.

  • Narrative based adventure game where the writing and the story come first.
  • Hand-drawn pixel art and animations!
  • Walk or float around the environments, freely explore the world you're in.
  • Switch between Oliver and Englebert! Sometimes being dead has its perks. Maybe. Switching between the two unlocks in Day 2.
  • 7 Playable Days: Each day features it's own goals and characters, while an over-arcing story builds to an unavoidable confrontation!
  • Fast Travel Map: Unlocks in Day 3, freely explore the town of Elderberry, revisit the location of previous days for more interactions, world building and alternative puzzle solutions!
  • Real World Puzzle Reasoning: Some puzzles have alternate solutions based on simple reasoning- you never have to leave the location of the day, but if you saw something in a previous day's location that would help you in your current day, you can go get it and use it!
  • Dialog-based Hint System: Englebert often plays the role of mentor to Oliver. You can speak to him for advice on what to do, and he will give you hints with increasing levels of detail, along with the option to have him stop so you may take as much or as little help as you wish.
  • Hotspot Heaven: It's all clickable! Oliver and Englebert will look at and interact with everything and provide you with unique lines, laughter and world building, for doing so.
  • Dual Controls: Optimized for easy, keyboard based control, while maintaining the option to instead point and click.
