Well after working on this for 5 months I'm more then honored to give you guys Judas' new creative endeavor...her Equilibrium themed adventure game.
![[image] [image]](http://www.freewebs.com/equilibrium-movie/EQAdventureGame-Judas.JPG)
From Judas' PFAQs...
Firstly, this is an ADVENTURE game with an actual storyline to it, not a 'point mouse at enemy and blow up, repeat ad nauseum' game. Secondly, you're a party girl from the 21st century, so the chances of your knowing Gun-Kata are pretty remote. And thirdly, I'm not that good an animator Like I said, I write adventure games, not action ones. If I do the sequel to this, you might be able to do Gun-Kata in that one. I'm not sure.
You guys can download it now before I actually have it on the site...

If you have questions or comments please leave them here but be sure you check the HOW TO PLAY file before you ask any questions that Judas has already covered in her PFAQs (Potentially Frequently Asked Questions)

Just started it....it's neat. Generally, I suck at games, usually because I never kill my opponents fast enough (except for Tomb Raider) I love the puzzle type, keeps the brain cells active....

Quick query; has anyone playing this had trouble with restoring save games? I just got a message from someone who says that she can't restore a game saved just before she exits; apparently the 'Quit Game' dialog comes up every time. Does anyone else have this problem? If so, I'll need to update it in the sequel to put in a Cancel button (actually, I'll probably do that anyway)

Aye, I got that problem. Just before I exited the game it prompted whether do I want to save the game. I saved it, but for the hell I couldn't restore it when I started the game again. Fortunately enough I was just right at the beginning.

Ah...that seems to work. Unfortunately, I'd got quite a way throught the first bit...nevermind, it was fun dashing around the Nethers again

*head sinks below keyboard in major embarrassment* I tested the menu and when it ran the commands, I never thought to load a saved game. *brightens up slightly* Still...at least it's fixable for the next one 
EDIT--Okay...I hate spoiling surprises, but I got tipped off by someone this morning on the AGS forum and think it only fair to pre-warn people about this one:
Before you leave the tunnel system, either to go to the Underground or Libria, SAVE THE GAME! There's a bug-it's not the game, it's the actual engine used to create the game-and sometimes it'll crash when you come out. If it happens, keep restoring and going back and eventually it'll work. I've no idea what causes it; like I said, it's a bug in the engine, not the game itself 
'NOTHER EDIT--Don't use the keycard on Rosaline; you'll get stuck. It's a testing thing I put in and forgot to take out again. I only mention this because someone PMed me to say they'd had a problem doing this.

Hi Judas...I'm having a lot of trouble with the tunnels, when I'm the cute hound...the game crashes and says something about a character not being there...Also, I think I'm being truly dense following my 'nose' 'cos I can't tell which way is North or South (Got the dreaded Lurgi atm, so my sense of direction is shot...y'know, can't find my....with two hands and a map!)

Well, North is up and South is down The tunnel system's a bugger; most of the people on the AGS forums have been having problems as well. Just for the record (and I'm thinking of adding this to my signature ) it's not a scripting error; it's a bug within the programming engine itself (there's never been any MoveCharacter command in that room or the room before and line 55 of the global script deals with cursor modes)
Okay. Although I swore never, ever to do this, I'm going to post the safe way here.
(BTW, Sparkplug kind of gets lost in the tunnels; largely 'cause I forgot to change one of the words)
1. First of all, it seems to be playing as Sparkplug that triggers it. So, much as it pains me to admit it 'cause I thought it was pretty cool playing as a dog , don't play as him. Other people have gone as Roz all the way through and not had any problems.
2. (I'll hide this bit to avoid spoiling it for others ) To get through the tunnel system, go...erm...*digs out map and goes cross-eyed trying to follow it* oh right...highlight the following to find out:
R,D,D,U,L,D,L,D,U,D
Again, it's only playing as Sparkplug that seems to trigger it, so if you restore a game from before switching to him, you should be fine. Just in case though...better save the game whenever you leave the tunnel system 
Hope this helps...sorry for the problems. Like I say, for once it's not my scripting

Hey,no probs Judas...s'funny, but I'd actually mucked up the being the dog bit and started the tunnels as Ros (and I did go upNorth and downSouth), then I restored the game and changed to being the mutt...ah well (tbh, I'm having so much fun with it, it'll be a bonus making it last longer! )
