Chapters 4 & 5

EDIT: HOLY COW, WTF happened HERE?! Not only is chapter 4 missing, but the resolution's down to under 200x200, and the sound is missing. Chock one more fuckup to Twitch.

2025 EDIT: Hi Mom & Dad, after getting swallowed by a whale and lighting a fire to get the pile of blubber to spit me out, I was told to dip Uncle Steve's letter in water to somehow get the frequency number to activate a tracker to find him. Unfortunately, I lost the letter in the storm, so I had to guess the frequency. After several hours of guessing, just as a joke, I typed in the prefix to our Charleston WV phone#, and that happened to be the right frequency to hone in on Uncle Steve.

Also, I just want to mention for the record that I hate pianos.

I'll keep in touch.

(Ed note: Because I rented the game back in the day, I had no access to the letter from Uncle Steve, and I wasn't allowed to call Nintendo Power because of how much it would show up on the phone bill. So, I really DID discover the radio frequency by complete accident. Unfortunately, I had to return the game before I could solve the Captain Bell puzzle. To be fair, my 11yo self didn't know shit about reading music, or understanding piano keys, so I had to wait for either Nintendo Power or EGM to publish the solution)
