Two of a Kind
An Epileptic Fish adventure
===========================



Background
----------

Over half a millennia ago, a meteor crashed to the earth. It was hardly noticed, and soon all traces of its existence vanished. Hundreds of years later, the town of Bluff City was founded on the same spot.  It wasn't long before the early settlers noticed something strange happening. Every child born in Bluff City was bestowed with a special power, such as levitation, or the power to turn invisible. These "gifts" were a scientific impossibility, ignoring all laws of genetics. With its heightened popularity, Bluff City grew and expanded.

Tim and Tiffany Walters are fraternal twins, born and raised in Bluff City. After a traumatic childhood (which they don't talk about), they became extremely close and depend on each other for everything. To pay the bills, they have opened a Private Investigator business.  

Characters:
-----------

Timothy Walters - Special Power: Levitation

Tim acts like an older brother to his sister Tiffany, despite the fact that he was born three minutes after her. He is strangely overprotective of her, and is constantly making sure that she's okay. He is very moody, often depressed, and looks at the world through jaded, cynical eyes. His one joy comes from listening to rock music.  He is particularly fond of KISS; he has all their CDs and has even met some of the members.

Tiffany Walters - Special Power: Talking to Animals

Tiffany is cheerful, happy-go-lucky and childish. Not only is the glass constantly half full for her, but it's also pink with smiley faces drawn on it.  She is obsessed with stuffed animals, of which she has many, and believes that she can always get her way by saying "Please!" often enough. Tiffany is always trying to get her brother Tim to have fun, which usually consists of a game of Candy-Land.


The GUI:
--------

The Guided User Interace consists of 9 icons, which are described below:

Walk to (Feet): This icon controls Tim and Tiff's movements. Selecting this icon will allow you to move your character around the screen by clicking where you want them to walk.

Look at (Eye): This icon gives descriptions of objects or things on the screen. Be sure to look at everything with both characters for clues on what to do next.

Talk to (Mouth): This icon allows Tim and Tiff to talk with other characters, or each other. Talking to different characters may give you important information or clues.

Get (Hand): This icon allows Tim or Tiff to pick up items. Be sure to pick up as much as you can, as every inventory item is useful in the game.

Use (Gears): This icon allows Tim and Tiffany to use items, such as switches, or inventory items.

Tim/Tiff buttons: Clicking these buttons will switch control between Tim and Tiffany.

Power: This button allows the twins to use their special powers. NOTE: Tiffany's power is automatically used when the Talk to icon is used on an animal.

Follow: Clicking this button will turn Follow mode either on or off. While Follow mode is enabled, the twin not currently being controlled will follow the other. NOTE: The Follow mode is disabled during some parts 
of the game.

Inventory: The inventory diplays what Tim or Tiff are currently holding. The scroll buttons allow you to scroll through your inventory, depending on how many items you are currently carrying. Also, you can give an 
item to the twin you're not currently playing as by USING it on them. NOTE: Some items you cannot give.
