Synopsis

Plot

Stupid Mom made you take your stupid little brother to town for stupid Christmas shopping in the freezing cold. And now you have to cross this stupid freezing-cold creek in a stupid boat to get back home.

Notes

This was an entry in the Penultimate not numbered New Year’s Speed IF. It is a variation of the classic river crossing puzzle, but with the fox/goose/beans (fox/chicken/grain, wolf/goat/cabbage etc.) replaced by your little brother Tim, a copy of Doom II and a pair of fake Italian designer shoes. You can only transport one item across the river at a time and Tim can't be left alone with either of the presents or he'll destroy them. If you try doing silly things, there are some very funny responses.
