Hangar 22, my first text adventure, is essentially done! Thanks to everybody who has helped me test thus far. The final release will probably be Friday. If you’d like to play it now (and help me by testing things out), here are two ways to play it.
01. Play the game online. For some reason, the people hosting Parchment (the online IF engine) are disallowing Internet Explorer. If you run IE, this link won’t work for you. If you run Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or IE9, then this should work. (UPDATED: Link currently does not work with versions of Internet Explorer before IE9. The developers are aware of the issue and are looking into it — thanks Danni!)
02. Download an interpreter and the game. This will take two steps. If you run Windows, you will need to first download a copy of Windows Frotz. Once you install Frotz, you will be able to click-on and play text adventures. Then, you’ll need to download a copy of Hangar 22. Once you have the file saved on your computer, double-click it and Frotz should launch the game.
very nice. on day two already. no obvious easter eggs yet. =(
I don’t know why you’re saying we’re disallowing IE… it works fine for me.
I found a couple of things. I tried a command and it was not recognize it though it was spelled recognise.
I took the bills out of the mailbox and after getting tacos and coming home and checking the mailbox again, it said it had bills in there and when I tried to take them, it said I already had them.
When I tried to take to the astronaut, it gave me option 0 and then 3 programming errors.
Hope this helps
