I would update today but I'm away from my tablet and I got like a shitton of homework tomorrow so you guys are gonna wait! But I would like to point out...
1.) The mirror is now up to date. If you're going to shove this adventure all up in yo friends' faces, direct them to here.
2.) I still have a formspring if you'd like to ask questions about Last Day, though I have no idea if it's really that noteworthy to have a formspring and stuff! I just like answering questions about my works. Haha DO IT

EDIT: Actually, FLASH UPDATE coming up! So sit back for a while, it'll take a day or two.
EDITEDIT: On second thought, I'll save a battle Flash for later and explain the fighting system first hand in static panels, sort of like a tutorial except lampooned to all hell. I don't have the will power to do a Flash right now.

SpoilerGlad to hear that update went well, I got a lot of positive reception to it.

So here's an update! There was kind of a lack lately I guess? That was really only because I was burned out from the last one. It should be regular now (provided I have my tablet tomorrow, otherwise I'll be staying at a friend's house)

Also I highly recommend everyone here read Superego if you haven't! I'm too lazy to link it, but it's very much my favorite adventure now that I've finished it!

> Team: Ponder who could have a key to that door? What about the Janitor?

Doesnt the janitor have a key? he should be able to open it

"Well, yeah!" the Janitor says "'Course I do...but, I really hate to break it to you that we should probably keep her in there. Prevents the virus from spreading around, y'know? Gives us time for a solution, like a reverse virus or somethin'."

"Yes, I do suppose you're right." Manfreddie replies. "I believe Ted can serve assistance for a job such as coding a reverse viru--"

"BEEP."







You are suddenly the guy named Beetle, smoking a cigarette outside the office. It's particularly cold out, but not snowing as it did heavily a few days ago, as all of that has seems to have melted away. What a harsh winter it has been. Cleveland weather is always like this, though.

You suddenly feel a nudge in your arm.



"What. What do you want."



"What? ...Oh."



"No. You've already bummed me out of three cigarettes this month. It's cold as hell. I need them."



"Go fuck yourself with your sippy cup or something."



"Hehehe."





Lenny says "That new secretary is pretty ho--"



?!


"What in the FUCK was that?!"





...Suddenly throwing that computer out the window doesn't seem like a very good idea!

Whoa, no that's bad... very very very bad. You just dun goofed. It's outside the building and it's going to spread like wild fire.
>Ted: Yell to Beetle to keep him occupied and not to get his head bitten off.
>Beetle: Give him coffee, smoke, and a small interpretive dance showing how much you care! As in how far your running away and neglect calling the cops.

...yeah, they're not going to believe you. Get out there and smash the thing before it raises a ruckus. Bonus points for giving Lenny a head injury in the process.

Hello everyone! I hate to post without an update, but I'd just like to say something.

I've been playing Grim Fandango recently and holy shit this game man holy shit what a fantastic game. So I'm like "aw dang i need to update last day but I wanna play grim fandango!"

And then I remember "OH WAIT, I left my tablet pen at a friend's house!" so now I can go play Grim Fandango!

I really like updating Last Day and I actually have a pretty large update in store, but holy shit Grim Fandango is a fantastic game and if you haven't played it yet, to quote Reggie Fils-Aime, "What's wrong with you?"

YOU SHALL SEE AN UPDATE...TOMORROW!

Grim Fandango is a perfectly acceptable excuse to skip a day.

HAHAHA!

Yeah, it's a fantastic game. It'll probably take my place as favorite video game (originally held by Rhythm Heaven and Psychonauts) I'm currently in Year 3!

I've never really played any adventure games, but it does make me realize that the adventure genre never really died in the first place. Lots of games nowadays are, at the very least, gameplay similar to adventure games such as Ghost Trick and Ace Attorney. They're labeled as visual novels, but they're really not, considering all the puzzle solving you do in both. (Ghost Trick is labelled as interactive visual novel puzzle.)

SO ANYWAY ENJOY THIS UPDATE

>Quick! Jump out the window after it!

Suddenly, BEARD MAN springs into action! He jumps from the window to save the man with surfboard hair!



He flies by flapping his beard and slowly descends from the building, safe from harm!



Your pretty awesome vision of what life should be like is very rudely interrupted by Beetle.

> Quick! Throw a desk out on top of it! Lenny can just...take one for the team this time. It's what he would have wanted.

Throw a desk on top of it? You've pogo sticked down a hallway instead of hopping. Surely there is a much more unnecessary and comical thing you can throw out the window. And you've got just the idea...



"A piano? Why do you need a piano?"



"So do you have anyone special in your life?" La-La asks you.



As expected, images of Ted start coming to mind. The photo in your shirt burns.

"Yes." you tell her, "I did. But he's not with me any more."







"Oh! Oh, no, he's not dead or anything! No, nothing like that. I hope. He just disappeared one day and I've been waiting for him to return."

"Oh God okay holy crap I didn't want to bring up anything like that. I can never handle stories like that. They just make me cry! Hehe. So, um. You've been waiting for this guy to come back to you?"

"Yeah."

"How, um...I didn't want to ask this, but how do you know he's still alive?"



"I just know. The night before he left he gave me a photograph to keep and said he'll never forget me, and I woke up and he was just...gone. I feel like I'll run into him again someday. It's this feeling that I haven't let go of. I know that sounds crazy, but I'm not just going to give up hope!"

"No, no it's not crazy! It's kind of like that story of that lady and a sailor, and the lady waited for her lover after he set sail, and she waited on a cliff for years and years and never gave up hope. Or something like that."



"It's funny, though. I actually work with this guy who's a coder, who has a similar story to yours, except he's like the sailor in that story. He says he had to leave a life behind in Michigan and come here in order to protect a girl he was with for years! I cried quite a bit, but it was really romantic. He's a redhead with a crazy beard, so I call him Redbeard, but his name's Ted. I like giving nicknames to everyone. You should meet him, actually...what...what is that face you're making."



"Why are you making that face? Did I get the story wrong?"



"What are you doing?"



"Did I say something?"



"But what about--"







"But..."



"What about that held call..."

SpoilerThis update was going to be a bit bigger, but I'll save those plans for the next update and see what you guys will do with this situation. It's way more fun that way, especially since the original plan didn't have much room for suggestions!

SO MANY REUSED PANELS, THOUGH! UGH! JEEZ! TITS! Oh well.

Sweet jegus that chair is unexpectedly larger than I thought.

>Lala: Take the call, WITH PROFESSIONALISM.

Originally posted on MSPA by Stickmeister.

Yeah, it's a big comfy chair for waiting guests. It's just REALLY BIG. I was actually considering having Jennifer sit in it and having La-La take the swivel chair to show off their personality, but it seems more professional-minded for Jennifer to be in a swivel chair.

I figured someone was going to ask that so whatevs

EDIT: also, you can make suggestions pertaining to what La-La does or says on the phone or what's on the phone rather than just "pick up that phone." so be CLEVER. i could probably make a nice gag out of this.

>Ted: You probably won't find a piano in your office building. Compromise, drop a safe on him instead. There's probably a bunch of those around.

>???: Initiate the Patriot program...

The chair is obviously so big because the Boss's friends and family show up sometimes, and then it's a bit cramped.

>???: Pretend to be game show host calling to give YOU a chance to win AMAZING PRIZES!
>???: Start asking questions in a special pattern to make sure you are talking to your contact.
>La-La: Answer the questions, and happen to do it in the correct pattern.
>La-La: Accidentally order the initiation of EXECUTE worldwide.

>La-La: Answer the phone so politely and quietly it's lost in the comfort noise.

>???: Currently you are enjoying hot dogs while working from home. Your call is picked up again just as you squeeze down on an almost empty ketchup bottle for that long, drawn-out, whining, pfffffffhhhbbttbtbtbtbbtbtbtbtbbtbtbtbt.

>La-La: Pick up the phone in a shockingly inappropriate manner.

>La-La: Pick up the phone in a badass noir-antihero manner.
