I can't get demo to work. It seems to install okay but then it says it cant create cryptographic service provider, what ever that means.

What version of windows?
I know whats causing it, though I don't know why, guessing you don't have a certain DLL on your machine; however, it's not necessary so I'm removing it and rebuilding the demo, I'll let you know when it's up again.
EDIT:
just changed out the demo, if you'd like please re-download it from www.staticgame.com; if you have any further issues we'd love to hear from you at Raymond@edigames.com so we can resolve all issues.

Thanks but I didn't want to save. I just wanted to get out of the game. I tried the escape key, enter key and space bar. Nothing worked. It is probably a good game but this stopped me so I uninstalled it.

the menu is at the top of the screen, move your mouse to the top and you'll see it.
Also, a windows tip, any application should always be able to close with Alt+F4
Guybrush, I assume those are technically warnings? We fixed that in the latest demo (yesterday)
But if not, what errors are you getting?
We just linked up the ESC key to moving the cursor to the menu to show it; it should be available in one of our future updates.

carlahelp, Don't forget things can be moved aside also and examined.

Lenore did you finish the demo? I finally did and WOW this demo shows it will be a great game. I like that the game designer Edi takes the time to help answer questions for people over at his forum also. Believe me I may need it. LOL Thanks Edi, for your help at your forum . I finally saw the ending of the demo and it was worth the frustration of figuring out that last puzzle.
