Thank you for downloading Damsel : Chapter One!  Damsel is a short game by Strange Visitor Productions, wherein a beautiful young princess has been captured by a quasi-evil, fat and middle aged wizard.  Trapped high in a tower with no doors, she must escape before he forces her to marry him, with all the creepy underlying things that implies.  

Damsel will eventually be turned into a series of short "chapter" games, because who doesn't like to see spoiled adventure game heroines in mortal danger?

We had a lot of fun making this, and would appreciate any comments/praise/questions anyone wants to drop our way.  We've got a lot of future games in the works as well, including the upcoming Quest to End All Quests.  Anyone wishing to make sure that Damsel and our other heroes will continue to get in potentially fatal trouble, might like to support us with ye olde Paypal donationes sent to a_strange_visitor@yahoo.com, or envelopes full of unmarked twenties in surreptitious handoffs at airport lounges.

Damsel also comes with an optional voice pack featuring talented performers, if you downloaded the voiceless version, go back and do it right this time!

Enjoy the game!
