I absolutely love how Jack suddenly started talking about how bad off he was in a fake, groany voice as soon as Alice showed up. It was like he was trying to talk her into letting him stay home from school.
I like to imagine that Jack Orlando was a pretty upsatanding and considerate gentleman until he took the shot in the opening cutscene and got turned into a permanent rude drunken bastard.
Or waste police money on phone calls, rob a man of his valuable and beloved fishing rod, break and enter, eat human flesh, abandon an old man in a wheelchair to a fiery death, or stab his girlfriend in the stomach.
Oh yeah! I'd totally forgotten that he'd found it in jail just to eventually give it to his neighbor. No spoons or anything in his apartment to loan her; has to be the jail spoon.
I've waited so long for this retsupurae ever since it was semi-announced at a panel. I'm ready for Jack Orlando, the world's only perpetually drunk detective.
I was wondering if this was it! Hazy memories of an RTX panel where the poorly-animated main character just kept shaking some other jerk by the lapels finally coming true.
Colouroutofspace4 The well goes much deeper than that. Retsupurae has only scratched the surface. However, I'd LOVE to see them do that particular game!
Retsupurae features a diverse cast of detective/police characters from many countries & time periods: Hopkins FBI (America), Jack French (France), the Negotiator from the Negotiator/Ambition series (Canada), Halligan (Britain), the Noir guy (1930s America), William "Blade" Hunter (Las Angeles 3000), Jack Orlando (1930s wherever the heck this is). Also is it just me or does the voice of Alice sound like Rita from Darkseed 2?
The Miranda warning, referenced by Jack Orlando's arresting police officer, didn't take effect until 1966, until after the proceedings in the Supreme court trial Miranda V. Arizona.
Retsupurae really needs to play Nibiru: Age of Secrets next. That game's detective is... something else. Like, "attach a stick of dynamite to a rat" levels of bizarre.
The sound cutouts were on the original vids from 123pazu due to content ID claims by composer Harold Faltermeyer (composed music for Beverly Hills Cop, Top Gun etc...) so it was getting cut out
@@poodypooroo There is an odd myth that the police are all hunky dory with white people, but the reality is that the cops are pretty shitty to everyone; they might not be equally shitty to them, but they still aren't great.
Oh man the sound issues are killing me. What if we miss another voice performance as funny as the Irish cop who sounds like he's doing an Apu impression?
At first, I thought this was another Sega CD game. Then I looked it up and find out that no, it came out well after the Sega CD died. Then I find out that it's JoWood, the company known for running the Gothic series into the ground. And now, nothing surprises me anymore.
I mean, you always had the rights, it's just no one would *tell* you about them. A cop could theoretically remind criminals about the fifth and sixth amendments back then... but it probably never, ever happened in practice.
And didn't have a weapon. It's worth noting, though, that you can actually talk your way out of jail. The longplayer probably just failed on purpose to show off the jail.
Yeah, I mean, how likely are you to murder someone in an alley and be unconscious next to the body the next day? Then again, maybe that's a genius way of making yourself look innocent after killing someone, because why _would_ you do that?
Think this game shows why I hate detective characters when they're written poorly. Poor writers all seem to think that "rude and unapproachable = a smooth talking detective"
To prove his innocence he could have shown the police chief that his revolver still has all bullets loaded no proof of being fired and no empty bullet at the scene of the crime. Instead he goes on a kleptomaniac's dream adventure.
In Jack's defense, $4 isn't so little, & it makes some sense he had a fancy apartment. Supposedly, he had some successes & fame, so it's possible he had some spare money. Also: www.dollartimes.com/inflation/inflation.php?amount=4&year=1933 "$4.00 in 1933 had the same buying power as $73.72 in 2017" Given the setting of this game, he doesn't seem that poor. Especially if he's been wasting money in an alcoholic slump! Speaking of in-universe time.... At 11:35 there's an option of "You lost weight, Tom. Weight Watchers?" Weight Watchers wasn't founded until May 15th, 1963. Assuming "2 days before the official proclamation" means "2 days before it was proposed", then this is happening around February 18th, 1933. THIRTY YEARS before Weight Watchers! ....Must be a joke dialogue option. Although you'd think there'd be snow. There's still over a month until Spring starts! I'm also curious why being such a good citizen gets you awarded a long colt. AKA, a .45 colt. Which, besides being a reputable gun is probably common; It began being used by the U.S. Military in 1873, so by 1933, that's a pretty out-of-date firearm! Almost by 60 years. Military use, reputable & possibly still reliable, but still a VERY STRANGE "fine citizen" award. But yeah. Audio issues suck, & kind of a shame. They tell him he has the right to an attorney, so lawyers do exist, but.... Why not get one? Interestingly, although it doesn't seem that surprising for the time, IMHO, Jack, seeing a duster, calls it "a typical woman's toy". The fact he's surprised he had it in his apartment makes me wonder if it also wasn't Alice's to begin with. Not to mention, Alice, who likes dusting, had misplaced hers, & knew how his apartment looked well enough to criticize it & think it needed cleaning. ....I wonder if Alice didn't sneak into Jack's home at some point. She's also kinda curious. 1.She opens her door the moment Jack is opening HIS apartment's door... & offers to make him coffee after he gets washed up. 2. Then when he gets in, she pours what appears to be coffee, from a pot. 3. Then, after being given the duster & spoon, she says she'll make fresh coffee. Apparently, Jack took so long searching his own apartment & getting washed up, the coffee she JUST MADE wasn't fresh anymore! Did Jack really take that long?! That or she really wants coffee.... Or she (or the writers) just needed an excuse for her to get away from Jack, either for sinister purposes... or the plot. Oh, & the best I can find for what liver paste is liver pate. Ground liver & lard as a spread. Good on bread & crackers, speaking from personal experience. Sorry about all the words. Good video, Retsupurae, & nice to see another series, even with audio issues!
"What I find curious is that Jack apparently left his wallet at home before going out to the bar to get drunk." Well, that makes sense. If he doesn't have the money with him he can resist the temptation to spend it on more drinking.
"We found this guy knocked out at the crime scene. The victim was shot with a gun, which we didn't find at the scene." "Well all the evidence points to the man knocked out at the scene. Cuff 'im."
Nice to see the standard point-and-click logic of "I'll just take these random things in someone else's home because there'll be some exact puzzle I'll need them for." And the velcro trenchcoat for the inventory is certainly...unique.
ALSO, LET'S NOT FORGET HE PUNCHED A MINORITY FOR A FUCKING CRANKING HANDLE THAT HE COULD'VE JUST USED THAT SHITTY BROOM FOR AT THE LADDER PART. FUCK. THIS. GAME.
This game's opening scenario doesn't really work for me personally, although I can see what they were going for. "Private eye gets mixed up in something and gets roughed up by corrupt cops" is a classic formula. It happens at least 4 times in the Phillip Marlowe books. I mean, let's say you're a plain clothes cop who stumbles on a passed out guy and a dead body. You search the passed out guy and he either doesn't have a gun on him, or the gun that he does have isn't missing any bullets from the magazine/chamber.
**Spoiler** In the next episode, he beats the crap out of a black guy with a horseshoe inside a boxing glove to steal the crankshaft from his car just so he can reach a ladder. So he's on his way.

@ 2:44 The moment that little girl gave Orlando the "bedroom eyes" from the shade of her giraffe-mom's neck, I knew that this was only going to get progressively more awkward as time went on. What happened while they were out at sea? Was it in international waters? Was there more to the story? Would I forever need to find comfort at the bottom of a bottle once I understood? None of these questions, and more, would be answered... My only solace lay in the hopes that I would, in time, forget.
Well this detective is a small step up from Halligan. At least he didn't spawn a million dialogue options asking what a duster is or what coffee beans Alice likes
Does getting twacked in the back keep you down all night? I mean, I don't expect much medical accuracy out of Jack Orlando: A Cinematic Adventure, but he was even a little awake before passing out.
Is Jack voiced by the late great Captain Lou Albano? I keep expecting him to end every sentence with "Luigi". Eh, maybe he's voiced by John Wayne, 'cause I also keep expecting him to end them with "Pilgrim".
I'm so distracted by this guy's gorgeous apartment that I really don't care how many homeless guys he poisons or how many prison spoons he finds. I just want to spend the rest of the game in this millionaire's enormous New York apartment.
The reason for awkward language is because the game is actually Polish, so it was later translated into english, and then Poles were responsible for directing english VA. In Polish, it's a significantly better game.
"In Polish, it's a significantly better game." So, in the Polish version, your neighbor doesn't invite you over for coffee, fail to make coffee, really awkwardly borrow a duster and even more awkwardly borrow a spoon, and then go dust when she still hasn't made the coffee she said she was going to make before she sent you home to take a shower (which you maybe did during a weird unexplained off-screen segment)? Also, you don't then steal from her while she's doing that?
I remember playing that game at the time when I got it for cheap. I kinda enjoyed it, but then also there were not that many good film noir inspired adventure games...
I can't wait until the end of the game when that 'open trenchcoat' ui for the inventory is filled with an unrealistically large amount of adventure game items.
Jack Orlando is a well-known foe of smuggling (alcohol). Also, his days are marked by cheap whiskey. Both of these are said regarding a time that is, at the latest, two days before Prohibition ends.
To elaborate, the producers somehow got an Academy Award-winning composer to create music for this game. The rest of the budget went to the animators, and then they dug around in the couch cushions for programmers, scenario writers and voice actors.

The artists for this game all went on to become Wikihow illustrators.
5:17 Giving Jack his Miranda Warnings 30 years before they were created that's called being a good cop.
I absolutely love how Jack suddenly started talking about how bad off he was in a fake, groany voice as soon as Alice showed up. It was like he was trying to talk her into letting him stay home from school.
"all the evidence is against you, jack."
so a dead body with a gunshot wound is enough evidence to convict an unconcious man for murder.
If I didn't know better, I'd say this game was written by Michael Gibson.
@@Gasoline85 It would explain everythi
Did Jack even have a gun on him?
to be fair they are cops they don't think that far ahead
He might be kleptomaniac like every adventure game protagonist, but at least he hasn't attempted to drug and rob a hobo yet.
He beat one up
I like to imagine that Jack Orlando was a pretty upsatanding and considerate gentleman until he took the shot in the opening cutscene and got turned into a permanent rude drunken bastard.
He stole pretty much everything of value from his friend's apartment but at least he didn't poison a homeless person.Thus far.
Or waste police money on phone calls, rob a man of his valuable and beloved fishing rod, break and enter, eat human flesh, abandon an old man in a wheelchair to a fiery death, or stab his girlfriend in the stomach.
Let's not got ahead of ourselves with this "girlfriend" talk.
A little too early to call
Just like Hopkins, steal from his dead girlfriend
I took this for granted. Never thought this would be the peak
Orlando always does great at D&D sessions with his Mystical Trenchcoat of Holding
Whaddaya buyin'?
He got it from a Kickstarter.
Don't give them ideas.
Too late, as I was referring to a Kickstarter Nonstarter episode.
Jack: "If I collect enough trash and horde it in my coat, my innocence will be undoubtedly proven."
"Here Alice, have this spoon I found in prison."
Oh yeah! I'd totally forgotten that he'd found it in jail just to eventually give it to his neighbor. No spoons or anything in his apartment to loan her; has to be the jail spoon.
If you forget to pick up the prison spoon, the first time, you have to get rearrested.
the only spoon in this lawless city
Finally, the Wikihow video game I've been waiting for.
FefnirMasamune /r/DisneyVacation on Reddit would be pleased.
"I used to be somebody in this town. Everyone knew my name. Back when I drank at _Cheers_."

I've waited so long for this retsupurae ever since it was semi-announced at a panel. I'm ready for Jack Orlando, the world's only perpetually drunk detective.
I was wondering if this was it! Hazy memories of an RTX panel where the poorly-animated main character just kept shaking some other jerk by the lapels finally coming true.
I know it’s late to ask, but I can’t remember the announcement nor when it happened. Can anyone fill me in?
All that's left is Limbo of the Lost and you'll have all the adventure horribleness covered
Colouroutofspace4 The well goes much deeper than that. Retsupurae has only scratched the surface.

Also is it just me or does the voice of Alice sound like Rita from Darkseed 2?
Honorary mention to Gillian Seed of SNATCHER.
Ambition was the best, shut up before I blow us all up!
Retsupurae does have a diverse cast of detectives. Sans for the fact none of them being actually good at it.
Don't forget the investigative Journalists Max from *Urban Runner* and Quinlen from *Ripper*
And Ex-Cop Jock from *Snow Job*
Mackey. You damn right he's dealt with kidnappings.
"Alice, another detective gave me an idea for how to wrap up this case, but it's not going to be pretty. Do you have some gardening shears around?"
The Miranda warning, referenced by Jack Orlando's arresting police officer, didn't take effect until 1966, until after the proceedings in the Supreme court trial Miranda V. Arizona.
I dunno how I feel about the American Jack French reboot, you guys.
Damn it, you beat me to it. XD
Jesus, imagine if Halligan, Hopkins, and French were the "Orlando's Idiots" with Orlando being on a speaker
I hope you guys never run out of stupid detective adventure games.
Thanks to the germans the world got an infinite supply of dogshit point-n-click games.
Don't forget the French contribution to the genre of shitty adventure games, Hopkins FBI being just one of many.
Yeah, there's also Fahrenheit, Heavy Rain and Beyond Two Souls.
oh man I love Orange Juice: The Longing aka Heavy Rain
Retsupurae really needs to play Nibiru: Age of Secrets next. That game's detective is... something else. Like, "attach a stick of dynamite to a rat" levels of bizarre.

You'd think it would look a little suspicious to carry all the potential evidence in your coat with the word "OPTIONS" sewed above it.
I get this game mixed up with FBI Agent Hopkins in my head and keep going "So when does Jack Orlando go to heaven again?"
Quality police work. A man is found unconscious without any weapons near a body of a person who was shot. Must be the killer.
I agree, they captured the NYPD really well.
@@doyleharken3477 Jack's white though
@@poodypooroo There is an odd myth that the police are all hunky dory with white people, but the reality is that the cops are pretty shitty to everyone; they might not be equally shitty to them, but they still aren't great.

Orlando truly is a hero for giving that nice lady his prison spoon.
Slate. French. Mike's cool friend. Now, we add Orlando to one of Retsupurae's most respected character groups: The Jack-Offs.
I have to admit the animation looks pretty nice this time around
I miss Hopkins's exaggerated squats.
Adventure games sure love depicting detectives as utter scumbags.
Point-n-click games really liked to have asshole protags. They mistook that for characterization.
for every Ben from full throttle theres a sociopathic manchild in scotland yard with a 300 pound pizza tab
The French Dip sequel we've all been waiting for.

At first, I thought this was another Sega CD game. Then I looked it up and find out that no, it came out well after the Sega CD died. Then I find out that it's JoWood, the company known for running the Gothic series into the ground. And now, nothing surprises me anymore.
I am sad the letsplayer doesn't use the gun option on everyone. One of the WORST (and funniest) part of the game is seen by dong that.
I'm so pumped you guys are still making videos. You deserve so many more views than you've been getting. Keep it up guys!
Miranda rights did not come into law until 1966
Or 68
Darn, an anachronism in an otherwise perfect game.
Tollie Emmett yes
That's a damn good cop!
I mean, you always had the rights, it's just no one would *tell* you about them. A cop could theoretically remind criminals about the fifth and sixth amendments back then... but it probably never, ever happened in practice.
I wish Mike Dawson would switch places with this guy... "hey, you missed, pal" "watch it wise guy, or youll be sleeping with the dark world fishes"
Boy I hate that whole "We found you near a dead body so you must be the murderer" thing. It doesn't make a lot of sense. Just lazy writing.
Especially since he was unconscious when they got there.
And didn't have a weapon. It's worth noting, though, that you can actually talk your way out of jail. The longplayer probably just failed on purpose to show off the jail.

Orlando opening his options menu: “What are ya buyin?”
To prove his innocence he could have shown the police chief that his revolver still has all bullets loaded no proof of being fired and no empty bullet at the scene of the crime. Instead he goes on a kleptomaniac's dream adventure.
Is that cop the long lost descendant of the Bartender from Town with No Name? Is this some deep Retsupurae lore?
Within the Town with No Name, the flow of time itself is convoluted; with heroes centuries old phasing in and out.
I'm not sure about that, but I'd say Orlando could easily be Hopkins's grandfather.
Jack Slate, Jack French, Jack Wired, Jack Orlando...
Maybe we should stop naming crimefighters such.
Naming any character Jack is usually a sign of shitty writing, really. "Hm, how do I establish that this character is the coolest guy?"
Don't forget the Jack from Darkseed 2. He packed so much cool, into each frame, that his walk cycle couldn't keep up.
It's either lazy shorthand for Cool Dude™ or Everyman™, yes.
Futonrevolution Some say he still suffers from rectal issues to this day.
"Eyyy, Mikey boy. I sat down to peel a cucumber (if you know what I mean) but can't find it anywhere!"
In Jack's defense, $4 isn't so little, & it makes some sense he had a fancy apartment. Supposedly, he had some successes & fame, so it's possible he had some spare money.
Also: www.dollartimes.com/inflation/inflation.php?amount=4&year=1933
"$4.00 in 1933 had the same buying power as $73.72 in 2017"
Given the setting of this game, he doesn't seem that poor. Especially if he's been wasting money in an alcoholic slump!
Speaking of in-universe time.... At 11:35 there's an option of "You lost weight, Tom. Weight Watchers?" Weight Watchers wasn't founded until May 15th, 1963.
Assuming "2 days before the official proclamation" means "2 days before it was proposed", then this is happening around February 18th, 1933. THIRTY YEARS before Weight Watchers!
....Must be a joke dialogue option.
Although you'd think there'd be snow. There's still over a month until Spring starts!
I'm also curious why being such a good citizen gets you awarded a long colt.
AKA, a .45 colt.
Which, besides being a reputable gun is probably common; It began being used by the U.S. Military in 1873, so by 1933, that's a pretty out-of-date firearm! Almost by 60 years. Military use, reputable & possibly still reliable, but still a VERY STRANGE "fine citizen" award.
But yeah. Audio issues suck, & kind of a shame. They tell him he has the right to an attorney, so lawyers do exist, but.... Why not get one?
Interestingly, although it doesn't seem that surprising for the time, IMHO, Jack, seeing a duster, calls it "a typical woman's toy".

I tried twice and it broke me.
And yet you survived Tim Buckley.
Buckley made the jokes for us, though.

ALSO, LET'S NOT FORGET HE PUNCHED A MINORITY FOR A FUCKING CRANKING HANDLE THAT HE COULD'VE JUST USED THAT SHITTY BROOM FOR AT THE LADDER PART. FUCK. THIS. GAME.
Earlier, I was wondering why I couldn't remember anything from this game. Now, I know why... you're giving me traumatic flashbacks now.
So that's where the 2008 Alone in the Dark soft reboot stole its inventory system from.
And pretty much everything else.
Except for the cool jazz music. It's so loud I can hear it in my restless dreams.

Fun fact: reading somebody their Miranda Rights wasn't a practice formally established until 1966.
Y'know, after dealing with Jack Halligan it's actually kinda refreshing to have a detective character who's just a crabby, down-on-his-luck alcoholic.

Yes!

Oh boy. After Broteam's playthrough I pray to God they get a certain bit of dialog from that drunk guy at the bar.
That and trying to punch and shoot everyone.
Waiting for Halligan to make a cameo on this.

While the dialogues make a bit more sense in Polish, the voiceacting and plot Isn't any better.
Interesting to know, but how much freedom of the city do you really get in Poland?
I don't think that murder scene leading to Jack being arrested would make much sense in any language.
"In Polish, it's a significantly better game."
So, in the Polish version, your neighbor doesn't invite you over for coffee, fail to make coffee, really awkwardly borrow a duster and even more awkwardly borrow a spoon, and then go dust when she still hasn't made the coffee she said she was going to make before she sent you home to take a shower (which you maybe did during a weird unexplained off-screen segment)? Also, you don't then steal from her while she's doing that?
Russian commando! Hello, Jack Orlando dev!
I remember playing that game at the time when I got it for cheap. I kinda enjoyed it, but then also there were not that many good film noir inspired adventure games...
4:45
I guess mickey mouse's voice actor started smoking
She's not allergic to this weed.
fucking Harold Faltermeyer did the music for this game lol
Did no one think during development that using a bullet as part of the UI would open the game to hundreds of dick jokes
Tbf when your protagonist is a detective, *dick* jokes are kinda par for the course.
I can't wait until the end of the game when that 'open trenchcoat' ui for the inventory is filled with an unrealistically large amount of adventure game items.
YES, I SUGGESTED THIS LIKE A YEAR AGO AND IT'S FINALLY HERE
Jack Orlando is a well-known foe of smuggling (alcohol).
Also, his days are marked by cheap whiskey.
Both of these are said regarding a time that is, at the latest, two days before Prohibition ends.
I like the random criticism of the effects of market economies.
4:45 whoa, Cedric's in this game!
He called a feather duster a "Typical Women's toy" what year is this?
It's a vibrating feather duster.
"what year is this?"
Watch the intro again.
1933. 😃
Holy shit why is the music so good for this piece of garbage?
Harold Faltermeyer
To elaborate, the producers somehow got an Academy Award-winning composer to create music for this game. The rest of the budget went to the animators, and then they dug around in the couch cushions for programmers, scenario writers and voice actors.
Because it's by the guy that did *Beverly Hills Cop.*
For some reason.
Hopkins fbi had the best music
Oh shit, wasn't this something you showed off at MAGfest last year? This is gonna be great.
