Captain Disaster is just following a distress signal and helpful and somehow still gets dragged into a cosmic comic adventure where not everything goes according to plan. But the intro to the bigger story is well told in the demo to the full game and has some fun puzzles to keep you busy. Some classic combination and inventory combination puzzles as well as coinversation puzzles show a huge variety of what to expect and actually I like the small clicky connect the wire puzzle a lot.
The background are beautifully crafted by talented artist Lorenzo Boni who also animates the whole game and it is fun to play just to see more lineart from his (digital) pen. The music by Eric Galluzzo is very good and absolutely cinematic and scoring the space epic really well.
Yet sometimes it stumped me that you have to look at some things before picking them up or in other words having to click twice before pocketing something. I prefer a 2-click interface over that a lot, but this is probably for a mobile version of the game. You can have a lot of fun with this demo until the complete game comes out, give it a try.

Synopsis:
It all starts with Captain Disaster answering a distress call from a mysterious ship... but it ends up with a planet desperate to rekindle its geothermal energy source, and the long-lasting legacy of an intergalactic empire long consigned to the history books. The planet houses a secret that none of its inhabitants are aware of...

Captain Disaster and The Two Worlds of Riskara features a contextual one-click interface, a host of colourful characters, devious puzzles, detailed cartoon style graphics, full voicing and an original soundtrack. You play as the adventurous but not altogether bright eponymous Captain, aided (sometimes) by your ship's computer, Zero-Bit, as you help a race of aliens whose complex history is largely unknown, even to themselves.

This game is a collaboration between award-winning developers Dave Seaman (multiple AGS Awards for Captain Disaster in: Death Has A Million Stomping Boots & other games) and Lorenzo Boni (winner of the $106 Adventure Game Challenge for Where Did the Humans Go? and an AGS Award). These two amiable lunatics have been point & click adventure game fans for many years and they have collaborated previously on small games and even a children's book, but nothing approaching the scale and scope of this new Captain Disaster game!

(Playing the two previous Captain Disaster games is not necessary for this one, although there will be some references to events in the earlier games, and even a returning character from Stomping Boots...)

The soundtrack is being composed by Eric Galluzzo, a recent finalist in the Ryan Leach Composition Competition, whose previous work includes the OST for The Corruption Within.


Making this game together has been a real joy and we hope that comes across in the game, and we sincerely hope you have as much fun playing it as we are having making it.
