| 640591 | 2008-02-15 05:46:00 | Hey Well, It's my first post so I thought i'd post something interesting: Project: Keyboard Adventure is a text adventure game comparible to Zork. It was written entirely in Java (not java script) by me. This is my first semi-popular project released on another forum. The game has taken me in excess of 4 months to complete. It can be a challenging game at times and requires much the players concentration. I wont go much further into it rather i'll let you play it and see for yourself. Mirror 1 (nspire.fw.nu) NOTE: This requires java to run. You can get java at http://www.java.com Also, post any of your comments/suggestions about the game here. Hopefuly, the members of this forum will remember the classic game Zork and will be more supporting of this project than previous forums were. NOTE: If you are stuck there is a map here (lxalliance.net) NOTE: If you get stuck putting the rusty iron key in the iron keyhole, just type 'put key in keyhole'. |

| 640593 | 2008-02-15 06:11:00 | You're the first person that's had a problem running it. Perhaps you have java installed only for web browsers? Try downloading the runtime environment from www.java.com or http://java.sun.com and see if it works. Any java 2 version 1.5.0 or later will work | didanick (13408) | ||
| 640594 | 2008-02-15 06:27:00 | I started playing, then I remembered how crap text based adventures really are and I went back to what I was doing. | pine-o-cleen (2955) | ||
| 640595 | 2008-02-15 08:06:00 | Come on, It's one of those simple pleasures. Maybe you're just too young to remember the simple days of computer gaming, where everyone paid a dollar or so to play a 8 bit game comprised of pointy polygons and other cheesy gfx. Those were the days. EDIT: No I wasn't around in those days. I wish I was though :( |

| 640599 | 2008-02-15 09:29:00 | Some of us are on Dialup. We don't usually undertake downloads without knowing in advance how large a file is. The game itself is 491kb which should take 2 or so minutes on dialup. However, Java is about 15mb which can take up to an hour or more on dialup. I suggest that you download the game and see if it will run. If not, then I suggest you wait 'till I port it into C++ (may be some time). |
