Pirate Fry 3: The Isle of the dead

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...

[close]

[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

[close]

[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.

[close]

[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

[MrColossal]

oh good lord, it feels like i did that so many times squinky...

but anyway, all beaten

the art is real nice and i agree with peaceman that the backgrounds could have used a little animation but other than that i love how far you're art has come

this game tricks you with the old lucasarts style of "Everything has a name but you can only interact with half of it" which leads to a more immersive environtment but a frustrated eric, maybe i'm just a bad adventure gamer but there were a few things in the game that i wanted to try but couldn't even thought they seemed logical.

Spoiler

like getting across the chasm, they say how one person used a log to get across so i tried cutting down trees but i couldn't and why oh why couldn't i open that other red door? hehe and where the hell did the turtle go? was he just hopped up on coffee and running around?

[close]

anyways it's a nice game and i like the repeated crotch biting [obviously] and the headless guys were awesome

woop woop

eric

[Squinky]

Heh, I'm really glad you enjoyed it man. This was the absoulute first time I've ever tried lucas arts style, and that may be why I was a bit of an "amatuer" with some of the interactions, But I'll admit I threw in a few things to throw people off a bit...red herrings or whatever they're called....

It's funny to read this thread and see what people wanted to do, I never even thought of cutting down trees...heh...but that is a logical solution really...

I had planned to make the bg's animated and I was going to fancy up the skys, but theres a point when you have to just say it's done, and I had made myself promise not to get too carried away and turn this into another fry2....

Anyways, thanks everyone for playing, and I really appreciate the feedback. I'm going to take these all into account on the next one...

[Kweepa]

Spoiler

Hi, I just walked into the room with the hammock. I'd gotten the hammock some time ago, and killed the snake and given it to the healer. I was carrying the knife, the cup of coffee, the warning, and a bone. The game just died on me.

[close]

I'm trying to finish it! Really!
I'm loving it. I just need to save more often!

that was beautiful..

The graphics were good, the animations smooth, the puzzles made me think over and over.. -gasp-

brilliant work man.

[Dave Gilbert]

Hey Squinkster,

Just finished playing this, and I am mighty pleased.  The dialog was fun, the puzzles were logical, the graphics were nice, and the ending had me laughing!   Had a smile on my face from start to finish. It makes me want to replay Fry 1, since it's been ages since I played it.

Now get a-working on Fry2...

-Dave

[Ben]

I love this game. I just finished it yesterday, and I loved the ending. This is your best game so far. I think Eric's right- it could use more animation. But the graphics are still great. Good luck with Fry 2..

[Squinky]

Steve

I think I'll ask you to beta-test next time, cause your like cursed with an ability to find bugs...heh. Anyway, I'm going back on to my weekend now, so I'll whip up another version without all these little bugs...

Ben, Dave, PureghostGR
I am really glad you liked it. And like ben I feel like this is my best game yet...So, yeah....
And this is the first game ending I've ever made that I thought was pretty good, so I'm glad you liked it dave...

[Timosity]

Damnit, I found out the ending before actually getting to the ending, and I still haven't really finished it.

Spoiler

I think it must have been the older version, cause I could just walk across the chasm, I downloaded it again and I couldn't replicate it but I can replicate it on the first version with a saved game I have.

Just another thing, you can give the healer the mint leaves early and she still asks you to get her some, and I don't know whether you got the last one I wrote, looking at the fruit on the ground at the beach before you pick it up still says it's 10 feet in the air.

[close]

and I'm stuck

Spoiler

I can't keep the guy in the shed, there is no interactions possible on the shed once you put the rock infront of it. But you still can't get the ladder, maybe you don't need the ladder or trap the guy.

so how do you get across the chasm, am I missing something

I have stick, warning, broken lock, bone, pass, lighter, open paint and dynomite, and I feel I've tried everything

[close]

[/s]

I think It's quite a hard game actually, I've got this far on my own and still haven't properly finished it, so well done, I'm usually pretty good at cracking puzzles.

I'm still looking forward to fry 2 which will probably be released after fry 7, but I'm sure it will be the best one.

Edit: I finished it, an Enjoyable game, just a pitty I saw the ending earlier.
love all the dialogs, very funny, I loved the colours, the end scene was a bit short, but it was still funny.

well done, bring on fry 2

[Squinky]

Damnit, I found out the ending before actually getting to the ending, and I still haven't really finished it.

Man, I'm sorry about that. Hope it didn't ruin it too much for you. Of all the bugs to get, I gotta get a bug that lets you beat the game early...bah!
And the other bug about the fruit will be fixed soon...so thanks again and I'm glad you played it through all the way even though you saw that damned bug...

I'm still looking forward to fry 2 which will probably be released after fry 7, but I'm sure it will be the best one.

Heh

[remixor]

Finally finished!  Good stuff, Squinky!  I loved the ending.  Can't wait for Part 2.

[Rincewind]

Finally finished!  Good stuff, Squinky!  I loved the ending.  Can't wait for Part 2.

I second that totally, except for the finished part... Bloody turtle...
Great game, Squinky!

[jason]

Excellent game, Squinky!
+ The humor was plentiful
+ Logical puzzles
+ The graphics were beautiful
+ Great music selection
+ Awesome ending!

The only minor complaint I have is that those messages like "The knife cannot be used on the stove" (I can't remember the exact wording nor can I look it up because I'm at work) were more irritating than helpful.

Nonetheless, great game and can't wait for the sequel... err, prequel!

[Alan]

Twice tried to play the game, froze my PC on the large dog screen twice. Had to re-boot.

[Alexis Vale]

How do I save/quit/load?

[Guest12]

Great game, but how do you THICKEN THE BLOODY COFFEE?!

[Squinky]

First off, thanks to Jason, Remixer and Rincewind for your coolness in liking the game. You are getting christmas cards this year....even you remixor, I've forgiven you for not having a neck....

Alan
I sincerly apologize about this problem, but of course I have no idea why it would do that. If you have similair probs with other ags games, I would recomend checking out the tech forum on this site....maybe that could help you. If it is just my game though, the answer is simple.

My game hates you.

It's okay, it hates me too. Good luck either way.

Alexis Vale

Pressing F5 will invoke the power of the ags savegame god. So enjoy this feature, and save a game for me will ya?

Have fun

Guest
How indeed...

Well, heres how:

Spoiler

You'll need the oatmeal. Not very logical you say? well, it is is you found it before you realized you needed it....So if you don't have it, read the next little hidden dealy

[close]

the next part

Spoiler

The oatmeal is in a storage room located to the left of the area with the turtle. you of course, will have to solve a couple of puzzles to get to it though.

[close]

Thanks again everybody for playing.

[Squinky]

Howdy everybody,
Just posting to say that I repaired all of those little bugs/critiques....
So, a new version is available now.

[Guest12]

How do you get into the Storage Room?

[Squinky]

Here you go

Spoiler

You'll need to use the butterknife from the healers hut on the lock

[close]

[Guest12]

Where's the Butter Knife? (I think it's in the cardboard box, but how do you get in there?)

[earlwood]

Cool game Squinky

Spoiler

Are you supposed to put toothpaste in that guys water tank, like in the 1st one, or is that just a sick joke you used to go get poor unsuspecting adventurers to try and make toothpaste for hours!

[close]

Great game, though, I got a Invnumber error when I tried using the...

Spoiler

stick..

[close]

[Squinky]

Guest

Spoiler

It's next to the stove

[close]

Earlwood
Thanks man, glad you like it. The toothpaste thing was just a reference to the first game, no interactions at all with it....Sorry man...

[iniciado24]

i think the game has good graphic content,
congratulations keep improving

[Chad]

How do I keep the mad man in the shead.

[Squinky]

Here you go:
Simple Clue

Spoiler

You'll need to find a way to put a larger object against the door

[close]

Elaborate Clue

Spoiler

Use the Dynomite with the large rocks and then light it with the lighter. The lighter you can get from the skeleton guy and the dynomite from the healers hut...

[close]

Hope ya have fun and good luck

[Nostradamus]

Hey Squinky, any idea on when Pirate Fry 2 will be released?  

[Squinky]

Well, Fry 2 is currently in final beta stage, So when Snake gets back to me, I'll post the sucker here. I gotta admit though, I started that game YEARS ago and I've learned so much since...So, I don't really think it will be the greatest game in the world, but it'll be fun....

Edit: I just wanted to point out that your name and that you were asking me when things will hapen...heh. Guess thats just my lame sense of humour again though...

[ida]

I'm in the healer's hut and I'm trying to find....

Spoiler

the dynomite....Can anyone tell me where it is please?  

[close]

[Squinky]

Its in the cardboard box, you have to pick it up and open it...

[Nostradamus]

Well I finished Pirate Fry 2 and moved on to Fry 3. What a cool game. What's so funny about it is that yesterday I watched the Simpsons episode Bart vs. Australia (first time) and then later I played Fry 3 for the first time and saw the joke from the show about the toilet water draining in the opposite direction. That was awesome.

Here's a question:

Spoiler

I can't catch the parrot. Gave him the fruit. I have the stick, mint leaf and metal piece. Can't do anything with dead\undead skeleton either.

[close]

[Nostradamus]

2 days and no reply...
I need your help people!

[Squinky]

Sorry for the wait man, I didn't see this...Glad your liking it so far though...

Spoiler

You'll need the hammock at the house with the wall, you'll use it as a net after you lure him with the fruit

[close]

[mätzyboy]

Hi! I played Fry 2 a couple of days ago, and now I'm trying out Fry 3. Sweet graphics!

I run into a bug though

Global script line 615
Error: run inventory interaction: invalid inventory number

It happened when I

Spoiler

used the shiny metal thing on the laser sensor. I was also carrying the stick, fruit, knife and the warning. I had given the dog the bone.

[close]

I don't know if you've run into the problem before or not. I'll try again and see if it happens again...

Edit-- It did not... must have been something with the order in which I did things. I had the same inventory but taken in another order, and nothing happened...

[Nostradamus]

Well, just finished it.
I expected it to be longer but it was a great game. Loved the humor. You just keep getting better and better!

[Squinky]

Matzyboy

I've had a few other reports of this nature, but they always seem to never happen again....weirdness...

Nostradamus

Thanks man, I actually tried to make it short, so I could work on cramming in more quality over quanity....and I think it turned out pretty good fo ronly nine or so rooms...

[piraatlife4me]

Hey Squinky,
Just finished playing pirate fry two. Pretty good game I liked how you added all the  mini games to it. A couple of things I noticed though:

Spoiler

Coincidently I used a butcher shop and had a puzzle with a meat grinder in my game. What a coincidence that is. Weird? Also lol as a joke, I think you should have used a disclamer like: No animals were actually hurt during this production. Man, lol, the dolphin killing and parrot shreeding was kinda brutal but at the same time had me laughing quite a bit.

[close]

Overall  this game rules. Now I wanna play part 3

Daniel
Winebarger

[Squinky]

Thanks man. I'll have to play your game to check out the butcher shop thing...

[md]

  How do you grab that berry in the beggining?...anyone know how to get a walkthrough of it??

[Squinky]

You'll need to "Pull" the low branch. And sorry, theres no walkthru....yet...

[Phemar]
