Third person adventure game - Schools Out

[meganaut]

Hi Everyone,

I have been hanging out on these forums for nearly a year now devouring every bit of knowledge and wisdom i can find . But at the end of my final project It has come time to publish our game!

Set in a high school science classroom, Schools Out! follows the unfortunate tale of Danny McGee, a student who has been shrunk by his science professor as some sort of perverse experiment.
Danny now has to navigate his way around the classroom in the hope of finding a way to get back to his normal size.
Schools Out! is a 3rd person platformer/adventure game, and Lightminded Studios’ debut release.
Release Date: Late 2011.

Thats right, the release date is looming!

The initial relase will be free to download and play while we continue to work after university has finished to produce a fuller and richer game. Our second version release of this game will be retailing for a small price on steam as well as through our website.

It'd downloaded brother, just have to wait until I'm back in windows to install and try it. Curse UDK for not running on OpenGL Kudo's on getting this to where it is, fantastic work!

thanks iron

where is double jump?!
there is no way to get out of a cup
and why is it sooooooooo hard to get out of the water?

bugs:
-the game stops when i press escape while hint window is active
-it also crashes when i try to push enemies out of a table(1st level)
-bot can't hit me if i stand too close to him
-the boss disappears on last level, so i didn't finish the game
