Donut Quest http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/394/39494.html and it's level editor http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/394/39495.html .  This is a wonderful game, and it's amazingly versatile and complex.  To all of you, if you haven't tried this wonderful Basic Game, try it now! ;D

tloz:  it stared out as a 86 BASIC Porogram, and its already been ported to BASIC.  :P

EDIT:  oops, I sort of gave it away.  oh well, fixed

It originated in BASIC in the first place actually :P

Using sub-routines, I wonder if Nemesiat could be ported to 1 single program?

Ztrumpet I tried Donut Quest, it was nice, but way too hard. On ticalc I planned to review it and on difficulty it certain won't get higher than 1/10 from me. The rest will get 9 or 10/10, though.

I agree with zTrumpet on the Donut Quest stance ^^ its my favorite Basic game of all time, what with the graphics, puzzles, and amazing coding, all in one program!  It truly astounds me, and i am inspired by it every day :)

That's the truth!  I've had discussions with you before on where in each of your games there's Donut Quest influence. ;D

Btw are there a lot of external levelsets available for it somewhere? I might try some at one point if there are any. Just not the default level set x.x

I think there is a level set from Donut Quest 1 (which i dont think was ever released?) But its pretty hard as well D:

I swear I saw one that wasn't as hard somewhere, but I'm unsure anymore. I pretty much gave up on the default level set

List DQOLD comes with the program and contains the original 6 levels. :)

Here's my three Donut Quest levels:

darn, how do you guys figure out those puzzles so easily??? I guess I must just not be talented for them :/

I spent 1 month on level 1 to no avail...

I spent 2-3 months on level 7 and 1-2 months on level 5. ;D

Nemo's a puzzling beast. :P

Yeah I notice. I sure wouldn't work on a puzzle game. I think the levels would be too easy D:

In Reuben Quest I am sure anyone could solve the few puzzles the games have.
