This is going to be fun

[Iituem]

Wow, that filled out quickly.  I best start getting to work on something.  Also, here's the current stats on the poll - I'm more interested in tie-breakers at this point, particularly where the issue of magic is concerned!

Right now it looks like a soldier with mechanical/people skills, and an army knife, set in the modern world or its equivalent in a world where magic may or may not exist!

Boo. Hiss.

Want "majyk usr" in a world without magic, want crazyguy who constantly makes ridiculous claims about "majyk" that everyone laughs off. And for good reason, since the claim of magic is bullshit and magic user can do NOTHING HAHAHAHAHA

[Lillipad]

That's ridiculous. We're not that ridiculous. Who am I kidding this is Bay12, of course we're that ridiculous. But that's only in DF, so stop being so ridiculous in this ridiculous forum of ridiculousness.

I said we were going to try something different, so this is something different!  Because I made this in Quest Lite, not the Pro version (going to see how it fares before spending money on that) you will need to download the Quest Parser from Axe to use it.  Should I upgrade to the Pro version, that won't be necessary.

The question now is... who is this mysterious stranger?

Ignore the above!  I registered for the full developer kit, so now you can have the demo game as a single .exe installer!

Get it here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=NQDUVNJ8  See below/later.

That file is all you need.  When you've played through the first instalment, be sure to save your game and come back here to decide on the question posed at the end.  When enough suggestions are in, I'll rebuild it so that when you load your save game it should continue from that point unhindered.

Interesting...

Spoiler: Spoilers of the game + possibible bug? (click to show/hide)

But was I supposed to be able to leave the cell just after I was given food? I only found out about the bar I could take from the window when I replayed it... But I never saw the door open... Did I miss anything?

Also I think the person is a guard...
I liked it. Can't wait for more installments!

Constant
Hammering
Opens
Portals
Unkown
just felt like doing this. btw, what is this game exactly?

[quip]

You are a soldier of the Melanese(?) resistance! Unfortuneatley your collective arses were kicked and you ended up in prison. You must escape using only your trusty army knife and mechanical skills! There is also a mysterious stranger!

Oh sh*t.  Blatant bug, yes.  I'll fix that and change the download.  Can't believe I missed it.

Ah well, suggestions for mysterious stranger anyway.


New download link!


Link also posted in the OP.  Right now, the game is my desire to see what happens if we make one of the YOU ARE X forum games into an actual text adventure.  Hence the request for suggestions on who the figure is that's calling for you - ally, enemy, old friend, stranger?  Helps shape things from here on in.

So... Like 'he is our freind and ally Bob McBoberson, a fellow soldier' rather than ' I think it might be a fellow prisoner' ?

[Iituem]

Yeah, this is more of a 'suggest what it should be' affair than a 'guess what I've decided' affair.
