Delay the Inevitable Explosion by Kobato Games

made by Kobato Games for Ludum Dare 50 (JAM)

You are the president's chief body guard and found a ticking time bomb in his vacation cabin. It is inevitable it will explode, but you can try to delay the explosion just long enough to minimize damage. This game has four main endings and many more, ran-out-of time endings. This game was made for Ludum Dare 50, Delay the Inevitable. I probably will polish it up after the jam.

Note: This game is made in Quest Text Adventures which I had HEARD was versatile and supported by web and mobile, but it looks like it actually will not play outside the Quest software. It can be published to Quest's database, though I do not think it is accessible outside the software. Maybe there is something I am missing, but the jam is over at this point. It is on itch.io if anyone has Quest. Sorry for the frustrated comment. Hoping to figure out something better in the future.

Edit: Here is the link for the Quest software if anyone is interested.

Hey there, I downloaded Quest and gave your game a go!

Marvelous text writing skills, your ability to describe environment is really good. I spotted some spelling mistakes, but nothing critical. I am not really used to read stories, but I really enjoyed the experience.

I killed myself once and successfully saved the president the next time :)

I would suggest to add instructions on how to get the game running in QUEST and what QUEST is, it took me 5 minutes to get it done without knowing anything about it. Maybe more people are willing to discover this software and your game, but somewhat scared of the unknown.

Thank you for your kind comment. I had not expected anyone to even try to play the game, let alone take the time to give feedback. I am glad you enjoyed the game and I added a link to download Quest.
