With Deep Chalk I'm not sure if I'm playing a point'n'click game or immersing myself in a piece of modern art. And add in some Boards Of Canada esque 'music' and a few unusual controls (it's not just point'n'click) and you get something truly unusual, different and challenging, yet somehow serene. Nice. I can't wait to see what else the creator, Zack Stone, comes up with.

fun fun fun fun

grrr...was the site down? 4th?

ggrrrrr some more :D

im stuck with the little ball of whatever that floats around... i can manage to move it around a bit but nothing else

chasing them around only to have them disappear is getting quite irritating

I agree, LK... looks like they should be guided as in the arrowed pattern..?

thats what i thought... but i cant seem to get it to go anywhere in particular. i got one almost to the door but, of course, it disappeared. grrr

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)

thanks sloth! so simple... geez

oh why thank you for the help LK : )
now on to the second part

I can't get past the drawbridge either
Help please

I don't understand *how* to "play with the hooks". I've tried clicking, and mousing over them and everything possible, and they sometimes move a little bit, but mostly they don't respond at all. I'm really not understanding the controls for this game, and have only gotten to this stage (with the drawbridge) due to things responding to heavy use of the tab key.

wow, don't worry Ellers, I'm having a harder time than you in the first level :(

suggestions? you don't have to give it right out

This is a great game! But too short. I love the music as well.

corona, now that you made it help us out on the drawbridge
please

Yes, Corona, a nudge for my stupid self would be great. I can't even get past level 1 :( See my above post for what I have managed thus far...

finished the draw bridge

This is actually a great concept, black and white done good! Hopefully the next installment is gonna come out soon as this was too short, just whetted my appetite :D...I wonder where the story is gonna take us. Where did that tram go? To rainbow land? lol Can't wait to play more. And the music resulting in what we choose to do is kinda neat. Well, Mr. Stone, I guess you're another game author to watch out for. Bravo!

Thank you Polp, It was driving me nuts.

SPOILERS/HINTS: Use the special <spoiler>, or <hint>, tags by wrapping them around your comment if you want to provide help in games comment threads. 'Wrap a tag' around your comment by placing one tag in front of your comment, and one tag after. See the examples below:

• Just type a regular comment.
• <spoiler>Wrap spoilers for games in spoiler tags</spoiler>.
• <hint>Wrap hints for games in hint tags</hint>.

If you are still stuck, try copying and pasting one of the examples above into the comment box, or use the hint & spoiler buttons.
