"Radio" is a sound clip being played backwards. I'll try and see if Goldwave can invert and get back to y'all.

Yeah I noticed that too. Didn't have the software to get it, though.

It definitely sounded more natural played backwards, but my mic is so low quality I can't make out the words. Anyone else wanna attempt? Perhaps if they have a program that can rape the source instead of trying to record it.

So that took forever. My webcam mic was crap, so I had install this mic I hadn't used before. Then record the track with sound recorder (which on vista no longer has the option to play backwards). Then I have to download audacity and IT WON'T EVEN LET ME IMPORT windows media audio files (which is the only format sound recorder lets you save a file as).

So now I have to open up vlc, convert it to an mp3 and try again. Finally it works, and it doesn't sound any more distinguishable to me. If anything, it sounds like each of the three words/phrases stop more abruptly. Maybe the first one is "what happened"? ugh....

I've captured the audio in pretty good quality, I put it on the dump here (MegaUpload wouldn't accept the file). I have no idea what I'm supposed to hear.

You have to submit it, for which you need an account on that site, whatever it is (don't remember). You get the medal when you've submitted the level.

Yeah, my issue is not being able to record the sound clearly enough. Tried audio extractors, but they are all made for stealing sounds from video, not flash...

Have you actually read what I just said? I've captured the sound in good quality and uploaded it.

I recorded it in Audacity and looped it backwards, and it sounds like the following to me:

"Who is that?"

(garbled)

"I found it"

I also noticed that you can get the track playing multiple times depending when you hit the buttons. Don't know whether that's relevant.

Actually, after slowing it down a little it sounds more like the first one is "Whoever." And played forward, it sounds like the first one (third in my list above) is "tonight at." Weird.

Also, it looks like turning the left knob 96 times and the right knob 92 times isn't the solution. I have all the codes except this one, and there's no obvious clue as to how to get it.

The six codes I mentioned in that article I wrote on the FF site are indeed intended for friends. Most of them contain inside jokes and stuff that outsiders just wouldn't get. I released a total of two of them publicly some time after release- they are both unlockable in the game, and they require the least explanation (one of them's just a simple parody of You Have To Burn The Rope). None of the six codes do anything for you in the main story, and it's kinda beyond me as to why people are so serious about obtaining them. Then again, since you are medal collectors, you're probably used to playing a game from top to bottom, checking every nook, every cranny, everything for some kind of reward. Hearing about something you can't get to is possibly a foreign concept. The little easter eggs I put in for my friends are just that, and are in no way required to fully enjoy the game or collect any medal. All things considered, seeing reactions like this to something intended to be just an aside to my first game is quite a unique experience- to be perfectly honest, it amuses me. Perhaps I should put a code box into my next game that does absolutely nothing XD.

A bit more seriously, if you want to continue to vent, PM me. I promise I'll at least listen.

And that one troublesome medal (you should know what I mean) was indeed working, but it was hard. I submitted an update today to make it... not hard, but I don't know if it's up right now or not. Should be pretty soon though if not.

And there are 10 endings exactly. Some of them are rather similar, but there are ten ways to end the game. There are no 'secret' endings (I admit I don't know what you guys really mean by secret though, since I haven't been following the whole discussion).

Well, I'll be frank with you: you've said in a couple places that there are two other things besides your direct interactions that will affect how she feels about you. You then don't tell us what they are. One is obviously where we take her on the date and whether we bring flowers, but you don't give us any kind of clue about what the second outside influence is. Why don't youtell us what it is, so that we can figure out how to get the ending that gets us the 50pt medal? That's all most of us need at this point, and without any guidance we're just spinning our wheels.

I'm not sure if the message is in the sound clip. There's a hint in the menu saying there's more than seems, and when you look at the title you can see that the 'a' in 'Radio' is replaced by the radio. Also, when you turn your head upsidedown you can see some other stuff too.

Perhaps your request will go better noticed if you PM the author directly. After all, he requested as such, and spending one's time combing through forums in search of the odd post regarding one's game is probably not time well spent.

Also quite noticable, when you press the left know, you can stop the clip playing by pressing it again, which is not possible with the left knob. But I';m quitting for now, getting tired.

Well, what it says is "there is much more than what you see" which suggests using another sense. Spamming tab doesn't get me anywhere useful, and spam clicking each button doesn't get me anywhere useful. I'm wondering if the radio buttons are just red herrings entirely. The white bar tween seems deliberate, like it's meant to serve a purpose other than just taking up time.

Dadgame just spazzed up on me and gave me the 100% medal when i refreshed the page, despite the fact that I was only on about 50%. Any way to get it removed from my profile? Seeing as I didn't earn it. The medal isn't unlocked in game.

A .swf is not a recording, it is a copy of the flash. Can't do shit with that unless you are playing it in a browser, and it is a little difficult to reverse the browser playback.

Anyways, it appears too be inconclusive what it says anyways; I love obscure "didn't you see that page of the internovel? It's number 92135521355233.

For Im not a Witch, nothing can hit you in the upper left corner. This makes completing it without losing a life much easier. Except you need to come out for the boss and it takes ages to collect the money.

Can anyone share a copy of the sound file so I can have a listen to it backwards?

Hey, so I just got the Eternal Enemies medal now that the mechanic we didn't know about has been removed from the requirements. I'm trying desperately to get the game's author to tell me what we were missing before, we'll see if he does.

Correction: you can't get hit by anything that will kill you in the upper left corner. You can still get hit by IRS planes.

OK, I got it to work. It turns out that I needed a GamerSafe account, and that the public account I used had already gotten that achievement. Creating a new GamerSafe account solved the problem.
