What do I do, smash a fish? And then use lard on it?

fluxmaster · Mon 23/08/2004 04:39:24

Hint #1:Ã,Â Forget about the game.Ã,Â Suppose, in your actual life, you wanted to get some fish oil.Ã,Â Where would you get it?

Hint #2:Ã,Â EDIT: The link that I posted doesn't work, so just go by Hint #1.

Edwin Xie · Mon 23/08/2004 04:58:12

If I wanted fish oil I would buy it.

fluxmaster · Mon 23/08/2004 05:06:29

Well . . .

dreammaster · Mon 23/08/2004 06:48:38

Now you go, and do the same.

I know that's a quote, but can't remember from where.

Kay, so I haven't read the full thread, so if someone already brought this up let me know (but break it gently!) -

Wasn't some other guy doing an enhanced version of KQ3, this one with original plot and VGA graphics and point and click? I think his name had "Hawk" in it...

deltamatrix · Mon 23/08/2004 19:15:27

Mhawk it is.

He quit ages ago and his project wasn't lookin good anyways.

Forget that one ever existed.

Manny's brother is still there after I slept! And his food is still is on the table!

fluxmaster · Tue 24/08/2004 03:35:44

Yes, I thought that was rather strange, myself. He just sits there in a daze, and if you try to talk to him, he ignores you. I suppose he should be sleeping in the guest bedroom, but then Radiant would have to add a guest bedroom to the house, and that would be extra work. I think that it would be better just to have him disappear at nighttime, or put a convertible sofa in the living room and show him sleeping there.

dreammaster · Tue 24/08/2004 03:46:24

It will be interesting to see how Radiant handles his reaction when Manannan is turned into a cat. Maybe he'll simply disappear. It'd be fun to watch him storming through the house yelling for Manannan. Maybe with another minor puzzle to get him to leave (rather than killing you just for the fun of it).Ã,Â 8)

Also, what is strange is when mannanans brother got his own food...then I go to bed and it shows them having a conversation his brother's food is gone.

What's the answer to the fisherman's riddle?

Edwin Xie · Wed 25/08/2004 20:44:33

And one time when I loaded the game there was a happy birthday song! Maybe I should try out the game instead of asking here for questions................

Oh yeah, an error when trying to enter the tavern ---------------------------

This was actually the easiest puzzle for me to solve; it only took me a couple of minutes to think it over.

Hint number 1:

Spoiler

Note that the riddle doesn't say that the answer is a fish.

Hint number 2:

Spoiler

The riddle said that it was a "catch."

[close]

Hint number 3:

Spoiler

What might you find while walking along the beach?

That's what the save function is for. However, the time limit will be increased in the future.

Edwin Xie · Fri 27/08/2004 20:24:14

What about the error???

dreammaster · Sat 28/08/2004 01:47:37

Obviously, we'll have to wait for beta 5 for it to be fixed.

Edwin Xie · Sun 29/08/2004 01:51:29

sigh

Radiant · Tue 31/08/2004 10:49:15

Yea, sorry to keep you all waiting here, it took some time moving all my stuff into my new apartment (which is thrice as big as the old student's room I was in) and unpacking and sorting and throwing stuff away. I've done plenty of bugfixing since the last beta (thanks to the bugfinders, you know who you are) but I wanted a couple more features before calling it a new beta.
