Catacombic: An andventure in Antarctica. yet another sobbing mirror update

[jetxl]

angry ags'er stereo type: WTF n00b! th1s ares teh Ai Gee eS FORUMS. only AGS games, no 1337 rpg games. : P
jetxl: don't judge a game by it's screenshot. This game is 100% programmed in ags. Yes, I used RPG Maker XP to make backgrounds, so spank me.
angry ags'er stereo type: Say, shouldn't you be w0rking on teh ATC?!!!1!11
jetxl: Well, the game was finished before that. But the ags version I used, couldn't play my s3m music files. But the new version does, so I finished it up this week.
angry ags'er stereo type: IMHO U still suxors. and I'm n0t g0ing t0 pl4y y0ur suupit g4m3.
jetxl: That's your oppinion. The game isn't great, but it was great to make.


Story is about Howard who has to stop a wizard cult from summoning a great evil force. Puzzle your way through a mountain.
I never know what to type here, just play the game for 10 minutes of fun.

8MB.
8MB? Hot potatoes, Is AGS getting fat? The first game I made had 10 640x400 screens, but it could fit on a floppy disk!

PS: Again, thank you, Candle.
PPS: Back online again.
PPPS: And yet again.
PPPPS: and so on. Thank you, Rui!

That was a refreshing change, well done.

There is a wee bug in the battleship game as sometimes there is more than one solution, yet only one of them is recognized. In my case it was 7xooo and 2232213141 x 0604212403.

Also the music sounded very distorted/blotchey.

[jetxl]

Wow. Not only did you found this mistake, it's also the first reply. You're evil.

Hint for the OOOx7 puzzle.

It's always when you release your game that you find the typo's, errors and blank hotspots.

[Potch]

Can I get a hint too?  I don't really like puzzles like these, and I've been trying to solve it for over an hour!

I've got: 00x4, 000x3, 0000x1 and 2050123212 x 1501141212

Thank you!

Puzzling more that an hour isn't fun.

Hi,

So far, I lamp (filled with gasoline), Rope, Tea pot (filled with hot water), book and knife.

There are pair of mitten on bed but cannot take it.

I simply cannot interact any thing on frozen rope including broken bridge.

Anything else I missing?

[JClarke641]

 ???How long is the download?  When I start , there is no time length indicated.  Let me know please.  Thanks.  Jacquie C.

[Joyce]

I am completely stuck at this I've never played battleship so I haven't a clue

I have the numbers that are in the middle diagram that you have shown us except I have

00 x 4
000 x 2
0000 x 1

so where do I put my pebbles?

[Joyce]

Jacquie

It only took about 4 minutes for me to download

[JClarke641]

Thanks Joyce, I started a couple of times but left before it downloaded.     Jacquie

[saluk]

Um, nice game but I can't beat the battleship puzzle at all.  I have 7xooo and 2232213141 x 0604212403

I have tried many different combinations and moved stuff around but it doesnt seem to let me through.  I'm pretty sure I got a right answer, and there are many possible right answers.

[Joyce]

saluk

Isn't yours the first diagram that Jet gave the solution for?it looks like the same numbers to me.
I can't figure mine out either but my numbers are not on the solutions

[Joyce]

Forget my previous posts, I actually managed to figure it out and I finished the game.
Great game!

[edmundito]

Jet, is this related to what we saw at Mittens?

Once you've seen that the bridge is broken, you can pick up the wooden plank infront of the door.

The rope has no use in the game. I changed a puzzle while I made the game, and I thought that the cell looked so empty without the rope.

Jet, is this related to what we saw at Mittens?

No, that would be Aseyriul Chronicles. I don't think I'll ever finish that game, since it is more of a scripting playground, where I can program some cool tricks. Just like this game all my games.

[splat44]

Hi Jet X. L.

Thank you for the hint, I complete the game before receiving this.

I found that we can get lantern will being locked in cell.

Great game

I'v tried doing the puzzle many times like your diagram but it doesn't work for me (ooox7). What now? I really like the game and want to finish it but I can't get past the puzzle.  J.

[splat44]

Hi,

All solutions from those diagrams work for me include 000x7.

It might help to print those as you are playing.

[SHE DEVIL]

 I did it right and I did it several times, nothing happens. What is supposed to happen??? J.

[Darcness]

Whoah! Great game!

Last year I started creating an adventure game using RPG Maker 2000 graphics. I nearly finished it, but thought that hardcore AGSers won't much care for an adventure with RPG graphics, so I stopped the project at about 80% completion.

Well, guess I was wrong. I think I'll continue with the project.

Once again, great game! I finished playing it this morning.
