I like the idea also.  I hope to move forward with it.  I updated the links with my final entry.  However, although I put as much work into it as I could, it's still very short and ends in a &quot;to be continued&quot; really before the action starts.  Take a peek at my code to see all the different things it allows you to do!  I tried to keep it very open-ended.  It's just too bad I have to submit an unfinished product; but at least it shouldn't crash on you anymore."},{"author_name":"CogentInvalid","author_uid":"22583","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 4:17am","epoch":1408939920,"text":"I couldn't keep track of all the colored portal stuff, so when I got to the first hallway I decided to turn right and quit. :P Just kidding. I actually fumbled around with my uniform for a while, not quite sure how to &quot;put it on&quot;, or even what that phrase means, before stumbling into the portal and dying horribly. In any case, I like the sense of humor here, and hope you continue working on the game."},{"author_name":"DoobieDoctor5000","author_uid":"23288","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 4:22am","epoch":1408940220,"text":"CogentInvalid - Thank you for your feedback!  Haha yeah I tried to include as many phrases as possible to leave it open-ended.  A few things I forgot to include are &quot;change clothes&quot;, &quot;change uniform&quot; and probably many others.  If you take a look at my code, you can see all the possibilities I included."},{"author_name":"eatsleepindie","author_uid":"35774","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 5:13am","epoch":1408943280,"text":"This game brought me back to my early days of gaming.

I just checked and it says Target Framework is .NET Framework 4 Client Profile.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Empyrealhell - Yes.  You are 100% correct.  It's funny because my overall plan was for a Carmen San Diego ish game.  I think this is a matter of me being a novice programmer with little time.  Quite honestly... I hate to say it but it's also a mirror of my dedication.
