HALLOWEEN HOUSE OF HORROR APPEARS ON MARS

by Hazed

Today is Halloween, so prepare yourself for a spooky, scary, spine-tingling time in Fed DataSpace.

On Mars, Diesel has decorated the bar with all manner of Halloween horrors. As if that isn't enough terror, she's brought back her haunted house. To enter Chez Diesel, you have to run the gamut of the most terrifying torments known to man (or woman or alien/droid). Only by exploring the house to find the exit will you be able to enter the bar.

To compensate for all this scary stuff, she's giving all her customers free drinks to calm their nerves.

The Halloween haunted house (and the free drinks) will remain in the game for a week, giving you plenty of time to explore it and scare your socks (or equivalent) off.

Stop Press: The haunted house turned out to be a bit more haunted than I intended - a bug in the events providing the sound effects made the game crash last night! This necessitated a late-night fix and a quick extra reset to remove the bug.

If anybody lost any groats in the crash, email feedback@ibgames.com, with Fed2 in the subject line, giving your character name, how much you lost, and where you want the money to go (personal balance, company or planet treasury).
