Pirate Fry 3: The Isle Of the Dead

Yep, I got sick of fry 2 for awhile and decided to move on to fry3....crazyness, I know
Anyway, heres a jpeged up picture from the game...




This game takes place right after the events that transpire in Fry 2, but the game dosen't carry over many plot elements from Fry2. So it, won't be confusing to all you people who haven't played Fry 2.

The Basic Idea
Fry Finds himself washed up on yet another Island after the events in Pirate Fry 2: The hand of Anturus. This island, known as the Island of the Dead, just happens to be a focal point for evil, undead activity.

Join Fry in his wacky adventures and once again save the day

Credits
Credits go to Trap and Snake for helping me out, and my gal for fixing about a million spelling errors and helping with puzzle design. Proskrito for the template and Hobbes for making buccaneer and inspiring me to do this a little bit..

[Hobbes]

Looking good! And thank you for calling me a minor source of inspiration!

Only played it for a few minutes, but it plays nicely... now, quick, upgrade Fry2 to this GUI.

[Darth Mandarb]

This rocks!!!

Great graphics, great animations, story, dialog.

I noticed only 1 spelling error (when the healer is talking about the bird she says, "I gues ..." I'm assuming that should be guess?)

My sound isn't working.  Is there sound too?  

How do I kill that damn parrot??

cheers,
dm

[Squinky]

Thanks Hobbes, your game buccaneer was a good inspiration to this project, so yeah....I was actaully planning to have a tribute outtake kind ending with fry acting all dramatic like the ending to your game...but, lazyness, y'know?

And Darth

Spoiler

Have you captured the parrot yet? If so, you don't need to kill it, just give it to the healer

[close]

And damn you for finding a spelling error! heh...

[Kweepa]

Great looking game!
And funny!

But, major problems...

Spoiler

I used the stick with the coffee and it made oatmeal-coffee which I could feed to the turtle.
I thought I was stuck at that point, having given the healer the turtle piss, the parrot and the mint leaves.
Then, I just used "Walk to" on the very right hand side of the screen when I was on the near side of the chasm, and Fry walked right over the chasm and ended the game, with a lot of weird plot discussion I didn't understand.
Or are your games always this incomprehensible?

[close]

Loved the animals though!

[Squinky]

Steve, I've uploaded a quick fix

Spoiler

I fixed up the inventory bug, just a silly matter of me not defining the conditions, so I believe you could use any inv item with it and make the coffe-meal...Sorry. As for the MAJOR bug that you reported, I can't emulate it, bit to clarify, you just clicked the right side of the screen? It's a bummer you saw the ending out of context, because it was supposed to be a suprise type ending...

[close]

[Kweepa]

Great - I'll take a look tomorrow.

Spoiler

For the end game thing, I just clicked on the right hand column when the status line said "Walk to". I will try to reproduce it...

[remixor]

Craziness indeed.  Downloading now, can't wait.

[Duzz]

absolutely beautiful game man. I loved all the interactions and dialogs, and the backgrounds were perfect =) those headless guys were great too... hahaha

Spoiler

my only gripe was that I thought I'd somehow get to push the shed with the ladderguy in it over the edge of the cliff instead of just blocking him in with rocks. I don't really know if it was on a cliff, but it looked like it was...  I suppose the knowledge that he'll slowly starve to death will suffice

[Squinky]

Okay, Artfreak hit the nail on the head. Because of his hints I was able to emulate the bug and correct it. A new version has been uploaded.
To all that downloaded an earlier version you can either download again or just don't walk across the chasm...heh... Sorry for the trouble, I really did beta-test the hell out of this one and this bug was about the goofiest bug I ever encountered....

So play on...

---edit-------------

And duzz man, I'm really glad you liked it. Thank you.

[After]

Hmm, I still have Fry 1 in my /DOS/2.21.168 maybe-I'll-make-it-work-somehow folder ... and now you're skipping part 2 as well? :o

Yea verily, behold the craziness.
Maybe I'll have more luck playing them in reverse order ?

[Squinky]

Heh, I may be able to hook you up with a windows version of fry 1...I'd have to check into it though, I kinda thought I had released it with dos and windows, but it's been awhile...

Really, Fry 2 is going to be out very Soon. I promise that, it's been near finished for a long time now. But I lost the love for it, and this project has gotten me back into the "Pirate Fry" swing of things...

[After]

Yay!

And it's definitely better to round out a project with a fresh interest than feeling that you have to 'get it out of the way'. 8)

[evilspacefart]

This game has some interesting and funny puzzles, Squink. You've got some skill in producing witty commentary. I find the headless guys funny most. They crack me up.
Keep up the good work -- I, of all people, know how hard it is to pick up on a game that had so much steam at the start and slows down in the middle. Seeing people overcome same obstacles I run into also motivates me to do the same. Finish that fry 2 and I'll get cranking on mine.

[MrColossal]

wow am i just missing something completly obvious?

Spoiler

ok act 2 i have to cross the chasm i have absolutely no idea how to do this, i heard them say that another person used a log but where to get one, i have dynamite and i've used everyone on everything on everything... i have no idea how to get past the dog [i've tried throwing the stick countless times...] and i feel like a right ass for not being able to figure it out when all these other people did

[close]

GAH!

edit oh yea

Spoiler

the undead guy who gives you the lighter is still there just invisible and i can click a click on him

[close]

[magintz]

soz, more errors for you to play with

Spoiler

When you place the fruit on the floor it has no status line message


When you try to pick up the snake it runs away but not into the hole, is it meant to do this?


You can take as many bones as you want from the pile... there's no limit!

[close]

and I also have the error where you walk straight to the end, but i'll ignore it for now and download the update.

Also: how do I get the snake?

[Squinky]

Space Fart
Thanks man, I kinda stumbled across the headless guy idea, and then there characters just blossomed....

Mr.Colossal

Spoiler

Check the human remains next to the undead travel agent. Also, once you get past the dog things should open up for you. And thanks you for the bug report, I'll go room.=-1 him...heh

[close]

Magintz

Spoiler

I kinda was going for the merged look with the fruit when it was done, but since you've noted it, I will go make it have some goofy interactions.
As for the snake, under what conditions did this happen? that damn thing has a ton of variables...

[close]

Solving the snake puzzle

Spoiler

Find a way to keep him from going to his den

[close]

More snake puzzle help

Spoiler

use the rock from the beach with the turtle on it

[close]

[Timosity]

Cool, Squinky,

Just had a quick go, didn't get far, but I'll have some time in the next week to play after weekend.

Looking forward to playing it some more.

Spoiler

just 1 tiny thing, if you look at the fruit after it falls from the tree while it's on the ground, it still says it's 10 feet out of reach.

[Pet Terry]

Really cool Squinky! Great graphics, music, dialogs etc. great game

Good job

[After]

Oops - I just checked your actual site for the first time, and there was the windows version sitting in plain sight.
Looks like my pirate-deficiency woes will soon be over
