I've released an update that fixes three bugs: - crash when trying to save if all save slots are filled - game-breaking bug if you try to open a pod while another snail is still emerging and doing its thing - small memory leak that probably no one will notice Note that your save games may lose just a bit of progress with this update, as I fallback to a simpler but more robust format that keeps its integrity across code changes.

- Snail Trek - Chapter 1: Intershellar Linux [65.9 M]
- Snail Trek 1 - Rainbow Donation DLC
In the style of the early Sierra Online adventure games, Snail Trek has colorful EGA-ish graphics and a text parser interface. Relive the nostalgia in these bite-sized adventures - but without all the pain. Autosaves, a text parser with auto-suggest, and puzzles with no dead ends, all combine to bring this old genre into the modern era.
In Chapter 1, you arrive at the lettuce-covered (or so you hope) planet. But something is amiss. Your ship has been damaged and you may not be able to land at all! Meanwhile, your home world is dying, and your entire civilization is waiting for your report on this new planet. Is it really a lettuce-covered paradise?
Key Features
- Autosaves - no need to save every few minutes (though you still can if you want).
- A text parser with both auto-suggest and auto-correct - fat finger your way to puzzle glory (but you can turn them off if you want to suffer more greatly).
- A text parser that understands what objects are in front of you, so you can be lazy and just type things like 'get' or 'look'.
- CRT emulation mode that gives those pixels an ever-so-slightly fuzzy look.
- A stereophonic score.
- Cute snails.
- Deaths (but hey, autosaves).
- No dead ends! Puzzle your way around with impunity!
- Widescreen aspect ratio, since monitors are more rectangular now.
- OS: Ubuntu/SteamOS 64-bit
- Processor: 2 GHzMemory: 2 GB RAM
