Megacorp Redux

[lanchong]

I've climbed up the pier.

Spoiler

I've talked to the Young Ynnh'Arr. How do I get into the city?

[close]

Thanks

[Sinitrena]

I might or might not be at the same place:

I've got

Spoiler

holographic picture, (empty) gun, card of pawn shop

[close]

I know that I need to get into the city now but

Spoiler

I'm not allowed in as long as I have the gun. And I can't get rid of it: I tried putting it back in the gun cabinet, throwing it in the water, hiding it in one of the numerous tree holes, giving it to all characters I can find (about half of them think I'm threatening them , so this is a game over)

[close]

Any hint would be greatly appreciated!

@lanchong: here's a partial walkthrough:

Spoiler

take the battery from the ship's cargo area,
leave ship (east)
south, west
shoot a zith
east, north, east, east
give zith meat to kryyx to get the pathway cleared
east, north
enter most left-hand side hut
use medkit to heal old Ynnh'arr, you'll get a flask in return
talk to old Ynnh'arr
exit hut
south, east
use flask on water
click water to dive in lake
examine stone pillar
take diamond
up/north, you're back in front of the lake
south (to the forest), west, west, north,
enter the water
west
enter temple
examine pedestal
click on glowing part, to enter a chamber
a stone pillar is shown
place diamond on pedestal
you'll now find (you get it in your inventory) a green alien token
south, south, east, north
climb pier
give green alien token to young Ynnh'arr, he'll give you a plastic card
talk to young Ynnh'arr

Now if I only knew how to get rid of the empty gun....

Or, in other words, you're exactly where I am.

I tried to get into the city before

Spoiler

picking up the gun. Which worked, but I couldn't do much there. Another dead-end, for now.

[close]

As this is a remake of an old game, I even looked for walkthroughs of this old version. I only found spanish ones (here, for example), but this only says

Spoiler

"deja pistola", which means "leave gun" (or something like that - I don't actually speak Spanish)

[close]

Not helpful.

Yep, that's why I added the prefix "@lanchong:" in front of the spoiler

Yes, but getting into the city without doing the stuff in the forest and the temple seems to be a dead end anyway.

True, but this remake isn't following the original game exactly (although it is roughly).
For example, the canoe isn't included.
So yes, it's a mystery for me too how to

Spoiler

get rid f the empty gun

[close]

Also, there's a serious bug:

Spoiler

After going to the temple and the pier, I went back to the forest and entered the screen where the kryyx were, before you gave the meat.
The kryyx are visually not there, but code-wise (bug-wise) they seem to be present again cause the response text tell you.
You can't provide new meat (gun empty after shooting) so you can't get passed them, therefor you can't get to the scene with the huts and the water with the flesh-eating fishes anymore...

I've also played this and tried everything I can think of. I'm stuck where you are, and I'm pretty sure we are stuck because of a bug.

[Sinitrena]

I think so too. That's why I contacted the author a few days ago and asked them to have a look at this thread. Though I'm not sure they'll answer as they are not actually active in the forums.

[arj0n]

...and I'm pretty sure we are stuck because of a bug.

I'm afraid so...

I've added a comment about this possible bug on his Gamejolt 'Megacorp Redux' page too

[JoseanCastillo]

¡Hi everybody!
My apologize about this disappearance of mine! I am not really into about using forums, but be sure that I will try to be more aware of this in the future!

Infact, Megacorp Redux is quite similar to the original one....And as far as it  is really old, the 8bits games, most likely Dinamic, the spanish studio that developed, only made it on spanish, not thinking on the british market (the most important on 80's and 90's)

About the way to enter on the city, you should read the adv first (close to the guardian). Then the "Leave gun" will be avaiable.
(Update: I have just playing and, by any reason it don't work. I am on it!!!)

About the Krixx bug you are taliking about, I'll have a look.  I played a lot of times the game to verify it and such a thing don't happen to me.


Thanks for playing with my game....And sorry again for ignore the use of the forum!

[arj0n]

Thanx for looking into these 2 issues 

[Sinitrena]

Thank you! 
I'm looking forward to an updated version.

Btw, I can confirm the Krixx bug. It happend to me once too, but not consistently, so I can't tell you what exactly needs to happen to recreate it.

[JoseanCastillo]

Well, guys.
I am really ashamed about this bug. I don't now how it happened. I tested it once time and another and it didn't detect it!

I have just uploaded 1.2 version, and I've been capable of finishing the game!

I am agree with the strage Krixx bug and the fact it appears randomly. In theory, the code is right, but I'll keep testing it.

Sorry again for this stupid bug of mine.

[arj0n]

Thanx for fixing the game-blocking bug 

[JoseanCastillo]

Besides, I have just added a walktrhough with one of the endings on Youtube. There are also three endings more. ( https://youtu.be/rqoN3bpyQLE )
