Reuben Quest: Ev Awakening AXE
« on: May 16, 2014, 03:14:15 pm »
Back in 2004 DJ Omnimaga released his grayscale BASIC RPG "Reuben Quest: Ev Awakening". Just a bit of time ago now member Sorunome finished his port of the game to the AXE Parser Language. This port of the game is a Single Page Application + a few archived data files in size. This means it requires less then half the space of the original to run! This port also works on the original 83+ which the original did not!

So get ready to play as Rueben and fight evil monsters, solve some puzzles, and save the island!
    Download the game on ticalc.org

Correction: The original did run on the regular 83+. It just looked like crap and ran awfully slow :P

Also, wouldn't it be better to use a screenshot from the gameplay (preferably a small one, even if it means a static GIF) to showcase it to those viewing the front page? A screenshot of the in-game menu is not a big seller. :P

Wow, the screenshot given looks pretty cool! If it were not for the fact that the TI-84+CSE had a different screen resolution, I would totally download and play this game!
(Note: All smilies that I use that aren't familiar come from a different forum that I'm a member of, under the same name)

I really meant in-game gameplay, though :P (eg walking around, opening the menu once and doing one battle)

This is pretty awesome! I can't wait to see the speed and the nostalgia since I played the original. :)

By the way, good job for the 135 downloads in a week (stats are broken since ticalc.org moved the file to a different directory, but they fixed the overall download count). Many featured programs tend to not get that many nowadays unless it's the start of school year.
