Hello passionate adventurers,

The game was made using Insta-Game thanks to sylpher.
O, and it is all in hebrew.

Should we hope for a translation, or we will try and errer?

Yes, since the whole forum speaks hebrew... ::)

And how hard can it be to learn Hebrew? You guys are so lazy! Chop, chop go and read the Torah. You'll figure it out soon enough. Ã, :P

well...
making an english translation will make the game much more relevant,
but i have a serious lack of time,  i serve in the army.
Hmm.... Israel is like that,  you serve and go home for 2 or 3 days.
from a time to time(once in 2 weeks)

In this amount of time im suprised i finished it as it is.
One of my first quests i played was Indiana jone and the fate of atlantis in french, i didnt cry... i almost finished it in french until my computer's hard disk burnt...

good luck have fun!

You can post the translation file here, and another AGSer can translate it for you. Then you just have to import the file back and distribute it. It can even be as separate download. :)

Thing is, French is a language that most people know a bit of, at least. Like English. Everyone can somehow "get" most of what happens with both those languages. Hebrew doesn't even use the same alphabet. ;)

To all who are interested, I spoke to AhadHayam and I will be translating the game for you to English. Expect it hopefully in two weeks.

Hey everyone!

Just letting you know that I have finished translating the game to English!  :=
Now we only have to wait for AhadHayam to import the translation and release the English version! 
Expect it in two weeks!

Post by: ahadHaYam on Thu 22/12/2005 17:10:42
Ok,
the english translation is taking shape/

The GUI and all the programming changes are made,  and the first room was translated.
I think it will(probably... maybe... hopefully) be finished by sunday.

Whee, a hebrew game:).
Nostradamus, I didn't know you knew hebrew. Anyway it'll be interesting to play both versions. Welcome, new-israeli-member-who-i-didn't-know-about :).

Hey Ginny I'm Israeli but I'm not new I've been here since 2001 !!

I'm just not talking much nowadays because of having less time due to having a job and because most the veterans I used to talk with here left or are silent and most topics talked about here have already been discussed in the past..
Title: Re: "Who sent me to Avadon" - Released
Post by: ahadHaYam on Fri 30/12/2005 13:43:29
Ok done.

As soon as i find a way to upload it, you will be able to download and play the english version.


Meanwhile newyear is coming, so happy newyear to you all.
And don't drink too much, and if you do so at least something that is not too cheap. :P

Hey.

Im glad you played the game.
If the robot is all what you didnt understand you are sharp, cause im sure only 3% of adventure players would really understand the whole story(not because it large or complicated but because some things there just have no reason or logic connection :)).
Title: Re: "Who sent me to Avadon-ENGLISH VERSION RELEASED!"
Post by: i k a r i on Sat 31/12/2005 13:05:00
 Actually, it was not the only thing xD
But since I thought you were going to uncover the other secrets in part 2.. I wanted to clear that doubt..
But..I guess there's no answer  ;D

It was an enjoyable game, really..a bit easy and short, but good!...Make part 2 longer please  :)

I'm having trouble 'getting' this game, too!

I pressed, "FREE", but like Jane.....I don't know what to do next. Usually, this 'game download' is there to click on....

I'd really like to give this game a go! (English version, of course)

Try again you probably got the code wrong

but when Ahad Hayam gets back home I'll see if I can get him to put the game someplace else

Or if anyone can host the game anywhere PM me and I will e-mail you the game to be uploaded to the web
Title: Re: "Who sent me to Avadon-ENGLISH VERSION RELEASED!"
Post by: on Wed 18/01/2006 01:43:27
Well well well...
I wrote down the script with another guy from Jerusalem, which I haven't talked to since months.
I now live in Argentine (GOD CURSE THIS MISERABLE LAND!!) and my computer was stolen when we pasted it in the container, so I wasn't able to know that the game was finished (After six months, I still don't have a computer!). Maybe I'll buy a computer soon.
I saw that my friend divided the game in two, so when I'll had a computer - I swear I'll try to get the team back up and make part 2.
The apperence of Shimy wasn't expected for me neither, so I'll have to think it down until I'll get the computer. I'll find something.  ;)
Also, a reason this game preety much sucks (Part 2 will be MUCH better!) is that we don't have someone to graphic the game. To tell the truth, we had to use our imagination - the submarine was really a spaceship in the pack where we found it.
If someone's interested - he may find me in my email (evilmax6@gmail.com) or he can search for AhadHaYam.

Thanks for reading this, and let's hope we'll all see part 2 of this game!
Title: REUPLOAD: "Who sent me to Avadon-ENGLISH VERSION RELEASED!"
Post by: Nostradamus on Sat 19/05/2007 17:39:09
GAME RE-UPLOADED  :=

This game unfortunately have been played by very few people, almost nobody, because its initial release wasn't in English and then the lame Rapidshare link has made it hard for people to download the game. The link isn't even available anymore.

As the English translator of the game I'm happy to offer you the second chance to play a game you probably have never played and probably have never heard of. I've uploaded the game at 2 places and added it to the AGS games database (English version of course).
I worked hard to translate and beta test this game and it's a shame almost nobody was able to play it in its original release date.
This game won't win any AGS awards and have been made with the instagame graphics pack but I feel it's interesting enough to entertain you for a while.

Everytime I get to

the part where he cuts open the pillow and finds a lemon

the game crashes and I get an error that says there's probably something in the script. Will this ever be fixed?
Title: Re: "Who sent me to Avadon-ENGLISH VERSION RELEASED!"
Post by: Nostradamus on Sun 27/05/2007 21:23:10
It didn't happen to me when I beta tested the game, finished it succesfully.

I didn't script the game so I can't fix the script but maybe if you give more info - the exact error message you see (if there is any) and what exactly you do (maybe you are doing something wrong), maybe then I will be able to help. Maybe you can upload a savegame just before it crashes somewhere and I can check it out.

Post by: Nostradamus on Thu 17/01/2008 08:59:10
Since the links have been down for a while and newer people may have bumped into the game entry on the nominations page the game (in English) has been re-uploaded and the links have been fixed on the AGS Database entry.
