You're a COP who has to talk a SUICIDAL MAN down from a ledge.

Push him too hard and he'll jump, but get him to open up and he'll reveal a terrible secret...

A 10-minute narrative thriller based on the short story "Man With A Problem" by Donald Honig (1958). Featuring a custom 80s synth soundtrack by Beaufort.



My first RM game, so I welcome all feedback, especially from PC testers (I only have Mac).

NOTE: This game features mature themes and therefore isn't suitable for children. Also, please be aware this is not an educational experience and should not be used for training purposes. If you know anyone with depression or suicidal thoughts, please urge them to seek professional help.

Wow.

Also, I found a glitch while on the ledge. If you walk down you can walk over the building.

Oh no! Thought I fixed all those glitches...thanks for letting me know, will have another look at the files, may have forgotten to replace the downloads.
This was just awesome. Best 10 minutes I chose to use up all week. After I finished this, I went on Amazon and tried to find some of this Donald Honig guys writing, and couldn't. Anyways, thanks for taking the time to make this; it was fun. :)

Thanks theloathableone! Glad you enjoyed. I don't have any of Honig's writing as he was mostly a sports writer, but I do have Man With A Problem scanned from a Hitchcock anthology. Email me if you want it: wearebeaufort at gmail dot com.
Great narrative and ending! Just wondering if there are multiple endings here? I've been playing around with the answers and I've always landed on the same spot.
Hi Hatsuchiin, thank you!

There are two endings, but neither of them are happy...
Did what I would do in real life and he died almost instantly lol.

Thanks for playing ekoo100!

And Link_2112 I hid your comment cause it's a bit of a spoiler, sorry!
This game is just amazing. I love everything about it. The concept, story, pacing, mapping, and mostly the direction. A lot of small details like a slight intentional lag of screen panning, the sprite animations, everything is just perfect and fascinating. I may write I review for it sometime, but I can say now that it was a breath-taking experience and I loved all of it. Flawless.

I've always wanted to play this and review this, and after seeing the Calunio recommendation above - I just gotta. I'll stream this soon, and I'll let you know. :)

Do you have a Twitter or Discord username? Pretty interested in following your future stuff lol
Sorry I just saw this Cashmere. Been hard at work on the next game.
