The This Quest by Endurion
The This Quest
==============
This game is an entry for the 48 Hour Game Development Competition #20 Ludum Dare (http://www.ludumdare.com).
It requires Windows 95/98/ME/2000/XP and DirectX 8. A sound card is highly recommended for high class
white noise sound effects.
You start this at your own risk. I take no responsibilities whatsoever if something happens to your PC.
The given theme:
----------------
It's dangerous to go alone. Take this!
The Gameplay:
-------------
It's a rather unoriginal Zelda clone. Fetch items, battle monsters and find out how to use your new weapons.
Once you have all you need head for the almost hidden exit (on the west side).
Control by cursor keys, Z/Y to toggle weapons, control to use a weapon (once acquired).
The Sourcecode:
---------------
The full sourcecode plus a VS 2008 solution is included, so you can basically change the game as much as you want to.
If you do so then please be fair and
A) keep mentioning where you found the sourcecode and include a link to my homepage and
B) notify me if you intend to release a modified version.
The code itself isn't very clean and includes some ugly hacks, but that's the sake of time schedules.
Press Alt-Enter to toggle window/fullscreen mode

Great work on submitting!
I was happy with the ending. I couldn't understand what the chests were for. Is there a way to open them or something? You get extra points in the community section for the level editor. Like you said, it was pretty unoriginal. The graphics aren't too bad.
The graphics were simple and sound was nice.
What are the coins for?
It reminded me of a similar game on the Sega Master System called Golden Axe Warrior. (an old zelda clone)

Note: Having a family and two childs does not leave that much time to code ;)
