DRAGONBOYRYU'S PROFILE

Not sure if the developer is still around for issues on the game but when underwater most of the hint signs don't come up. The one with the clocks. The clocks don't even come up. I checked youtube and their play is different from mine.
I see that I need the clock puzzle solved to get the exit key. I am major stuck right now. If you can give any help,fix or even somehow an exit key I would be appreciative. I really like the game reminds me of earthbound.
