The Perfect Gem
[See Download Link below for Novella of the Background Story]
The year is 2204 and gem dealers are rocked by the sudden appearance of several of the largest, most precious diamonds ever seen.
Mercenary groups of humans, backed up by illegal 'Synths' are hired to track down the source of the gems, and tracks their origin back to a battered old freighter sat in the Caribbean 200 miles off the coast of South America.
The assault by a merc team goes badly, and it's left to you, Synth A3 with your two-word-based AI interface, to attempt a rescue, or continue the mission...
But things may not be entirely what they seem...

help how do i combine the pipe and the glove i tried everything
Any of the following should prompt you what to use the pipe with:
combine pipe
use pipe
scrape wall
attach pipe
combine pipe
heat pipe
warm pipe
nothing works. i tried the glove and everything else but it keeps asking me "use with.....?"
Hmmm.. That's curious! I'll give it a try! OK, so the puzzle is a logical step-by-step one, and the pipe and glove are central to each step. so, as a first step use pipe, and in response with "use with?" try glove.. You should see the message is different. Now, you have a capped pipe because you've stretched the glove over one end. the hint to do this is if you try to use the uncapped pipe on the ice. Now you have a capped pipe, try use pipe on all the other things in the room, there are only a few. you'll know if you get it right.
thanks it worked might have been a glitch on my end
Yay! I'm glad you got it working :) Doing everything in two words was hard! :)
Hello! I'm really enjoying your game. But I'm stuck on what to do with the button! I already turned on the generator. But I can't push the button. Could I have a hint? :D
Hmm.. That's curious. You *should* be able to either PUSH BUTTON, PRESS BUTTON, USE BUTTON, DESCEND, D, GO DOWN, or DOWN. AARGH, I just checked and there's a small bug with a boolean which would stop you winning.
I have resolved the problem and created a way for you to get back to where you were:
restart your game, and then type "debug julia" at the prompt. The game will reset to your current location and state (with some prompts).
Let me know if that gets you going again..
Perfect! I was able to finish the game. Thanks so much for your help!
Cool! I'm glad you were able to finish! Thanks for playing, it makes me happy that people are playing through it! :) :) :)
Nice game!!!
