Perfect Distance

A computer game by Rod Humble

Perfect Distance title

Windows download

This is a game about an artillery officer returning from a war and his thoughts about free will. It should be fairly self explanatory to play. Please play with audio to get any kind of sense out of it.

Background and technical

The game has been complete for over two years. I held off releasing it earlier because of a bug which exists on some machines where the narration does not play. If you do not hear a voice while playing, well, you are getting a different experience from most people, I have come to rather like that.

Why not fix the bug? Because I put off the game for so long I have lost the source, leaving me with just a big installer and binary. This accounts for the absurdly large download size for a game that lasts a few minutes. Sorry about that.

Thanks

The usual crew of art game supporters and makers, particularly Mike Treanor without whose encouragement I would have simply not released this game.
