probably loads of bugs - but a new game to the QL made in QL Quill 07!

Great! I'll (try to) play it!
The "try" is because I always hated to guess the vocabulary.

Will you publish the Quill code? It would be a great example!

Hi,

Please try, most of the game requires only simple commands:

Get, drop, use, wait.

I will share the code and the unquill document once everything is finalised.

Please let me know if you encounter any bugs. I was on a tight deadline to finish before I travelled.

Thanks for posting this. I appreciate the effort you've gone to. I downloaded the game and gave it a quick try on Q-emulator until I got trapped in the toilet with no way out. The one in the game, I mean. I presume this is an intentional joke! Maybe I needed to wait to be rescued...

The game has an old-school feel to it, but that's no bad thing necessarily. One thing I might add is LOOK / L as a synonym for REDESCRIBE / R to get back the location description. I'll have a deeper dive when I have more time, but currently finishing off an adventure of my own at present.

Cheers,
Alan

Hmmm you should be able to leave the toilet!!!!

Not sure why you can't. Probably a bug for me to look into. You can do mission 1 ok. I tested that far. And I got most of the way through mission 2. You don't need to go in the toilet for either of them!

just to update everyone - you can now get out of the toilet.

Any many other rooms too, for that matter.

Ive also added the quill database to the cart so you can edit it with Quill and look how it was made.

Thanks!
