Homebrew: Island Adventure (HuCard)

[meka]

I played through it and it's very good, would be nice if you could make it into a full game.

Island Adventure (Neo Compo 2012).pce

I love the "no-frills" Ys border! It actually adds elegance to the utilitarian presentation.
 

27 minutes of gameplay -

Don't watch if you don't want certain parts of the game spoiled.

(However, there isn't much spoiling going on.  I tend to suck at most videogames )

Thank you! I'm going to watch it for a minute (so as not to spoil anything), but I will LISTEN to it for a few minutes

EDIT: Also, be sure to let us know how the contest goes.  I thought about entering something into that.


but then I remembered I have enough crap to do already, lol -_-;

The results were announced--this game won 3rd prize.

I think there were more entries (and much nicer) than expected--there had been some talk of canceling the compo due to decreasing interest. After the nice result this year, surely there will be a Neo Compo 2013... let's hope for some new PCE homebrew to be shown

cool, congrats for your prize ..

Hey, 3rd place is pretty awesome.   I would have given you 1st place (I looked at some of the other entries)


I like how your game really captures the old-ass-CRPG feel to it, and I still like the tune in it alot.   It's a nice tune.

Post up the MML, or an MP3 or something!

[Nando]

Congratulations! and yes post ze music.

[roflmao]

Congrats, cabbage.  I finally got around to playing some of this yesterday (hooray for flashcards!).  It was a hoot.

[Father5&JoshUnion]

Good stuff!!

I had a fun time playing through this one!  Would love to see a suped up version. 

[esteban]

I missed this thread earlier!

CONGRATULATIONS CABBAGE!

Let me echo the folks who requested the music earlier...if you have an .mp3, I'll gladly host it for you.

[cabbage]

hmm.. people enjoyed this little project so much, i wonder what to make next....  :-"

...if you have an .mp3, I'll gladly host it for you.

I don't have an mp3 of it; feel free to rip your own and host it if you want!

For anyone interested, here's the original midi and the converted mml. edit to add the other song: midi / mml

before you get excited (arkhan), the mml is not optimized. i just ran the midi through 3mle and cleaned up the output and added squirrel channel init stuff...

[Arkhan]

lol, thats OK.  It's a start.

Did you compose the tune, or did you lift it from somewhere?

[cabbage]

lifted it...

Arkhan--(. . .)Unfortunately these are not my original musics--I just found some cute songs on vgmusic.com.

[Arkhan]

oh I must have missed that post.


It all sounds very nice though duder.    This is the first official non Aetherbyte use of Squirrel.

Let your geek flag fly high!

[cabbage]

It might be the first third-party game using squirrel, but don't forget the nyan cat demo which came before this! That MML is much more elegant than those used in Island Adventure.

I'm still planning to develop some composition skills so I can make original tunes. Should have some free time next week so if I have a usable computer by then I'll probably start pestering you, arkhan, about how to do custom instruments and drums and such

Squirrel is really a pleasure to use, I can't thank Aetherbyte enough for all the hard work put into it.
Any musicians reading this: please try to use squirrel... or at least make some cool midis or sheet music--I'll be happy to help you convert to MML if you're intimidated by text editors, hehe

Yes, i'am planing to use squirrel for my next project ..
As soon as I've finished chuck no-rice, I will test squirrel more deeply .
