You can purchase Captain Disaster in: Death Has A Million Stomping Boots here. View the trailer here. 29th December 2017 - Birmingham, UK – Team Disaster is overjoyed to announce that Captain Disaster in: Death Has A Million Stomping Boots is now available!
This retro point and click adventure game is designed to simultaneously test your grey matter and tickle your funny bone with a wide variety of puzzles, multitudinous alien and robotic lifeforms to interact with, and more parody elements than you could shake a stick at (if you are in that habit of shaking sticks at things, that is). Of course no self-respecting comedy sci-fi game is complete without some lunatic trying to take over the galaxy, so we have one of them, too!
Developers “Team Disaster” estimate that, Including social media and adventure game forums, this game is hotly anticipated by a worldwide following of up to a dozen (though up to half of those are probably bots) They also guarantee that this game will take you an indeterminate amount of time to complete. If that doesn’t convince you, they just don’t know what will! At any rate, you must want to know what these “million stomping boots” are, right? RIGHT? Hey, where did everybody go?
Happy Gaming! Ana

Congratulations on the release, CaptainD :)
Any plans for Steam as well? Thanks Iurii! Good question. The short answer is almost definitely, but not for a while.
There are two reasons for this: 1- I want to first have it on the truly indie-friendly sites like Itch, GameJolt and FireFlower 2- Will take a bit of work to add some nice achievements to the game - which I really want to do for the Steam release Also we are looking at how feasible it is to release on other formats, so that's our first priority.

Hey Sandy! Firstly, I'd like to say that you still playing adventure games at 86 is absolutely brilliant!!  I hope I'm still doing it at that age. As to a walkthrough - I'll put it on my list to do (we did actually make one some time ago during development but have updated a lot of things in the game since then), but the internet seems to be full of people who are able to solve games and put walkthroughs up with incredible speed. We'll see how does it first! I appreciate your support as always! Cheers, Dave

OK Dave,
Your game purchased, downloaded, and installed. I just printed out your great ACT ONE WT, and "May the fun begin" LOL
Sandy
Just started to play the game. After tweaking some choices in the Compatibility menu, running perfectly.

Thanks for the Act 2 WT, Dave. I'm almost done with Act 1. HOWEVER,
I'm stuck on the "Spinning Color Wheels" puzzle. can't get all the colors set correctly. If there is a tip you can give me on this one I certainly would appreciate it. I apologize to Ana if my post should be listed in "Hints",and I'll make sure that from now on I WILL post these questions in "Hints".
Sandy
Never mind, Dave.
With a little more patience and a lot more concentration, I managed to "beat" that puzzle, finally. Playing Act 2 now.

Glad you got there in the end Sandy - sorry my walkthrough wasn't clear enough!  Act III walkthrough is now done - http://www.captaindisasterthecomputergame.com/2018/01/captain-disaster-in-death-has-million_9.htmlThe game has been updated to v1.01 due to some small / rare bugs being found. Players using v1.00 have no need to update unless they actually encounter problems (savegame files will almost definitely not work between versions unfortunately). We are working on an updated version of the demo (the old one is from 2012 and we have updated quite a bit since then!) - that should be available on Itch within the next few days. We will also be putting the game up on FireFlower Games in the near future too.

Thanks for Act 3 WT, Dave, but I have one question for you: You said in this post that there MIGHT some "problems" with ver.100. How does this problem show up in the game? So far (and I'm playing ACT 2 right now), I haven't had any technical problems. How can I tell as to which version I have? WHEW!
Sandy As you downloaded before we did the update, you will have v1.00. Even if you encounter one of the bugs that have been fixed you may not even have realised (they are very small bugs!). There is one quite nasty bug; however it requires an extremely specific set of actions to activate. This was the report of how it happened (it's near the end of Act III, hidden as puzzle spoiler): "After entering the military base. After turning up the thermostat, I went back behind the fence and turned the invisibility device back on. I then poured the leftover coffee into the vent, then proceeded to immediately move into the nook behind the replicator"
So... don't do that. You very probably wouldn't have done anyway! I think the key issue is not turning the invisibility device back on before you use the coffee on the vent.

Hi shadow9d9ii! GOG - not unless they change their mind Steam - yes, not sure exactly when - had been intending to do a shiny version with Achievements and Trading Cards, but in the interests of using our time to develop the next Captain Disaster game instead we may just release it without extras, which we'll obviously be able to do quicker. I'll announce it when we make a final decision! Humble - assuming they accept the game then yes. Hope to be able to give more definite information soon!

CaptainD, don't feel bad. GoG has turned their nose up to a ton of developers I know. It's ridiculous!
Steam, don't rush your game on their without the achievements and trading cards. It's a turnoff for lots of Steam users.

That is their standard reply CaptainD. The "too niche" is what they all get when they say no even to what I would consider a regular P&C adventure game.
