VB RPG

[The Giblets of Jesus]

Just because I had nowhere else to put it



This is just a little project that I started when my computer broke a few weeks ago, leaving me with just a shitty computer with only Visual Basic '08 on it. Being the bored and sad individual that I am I began to code what started as a test (to see if it could be done) and eventually began to quickly expand it something much bigger.

Right now I have a few things still to do before I can finally draw this thing to a close.

+Finish town store
+Get a password system going
+Add good / bad quests
+Add consequences for being good + evil
+moar enemy's!

Anyway, here's a download if any of you want to try it out (I believe it should work if you have any Microsoft office application installed)

Enjoy

Oh, and apologies if this is the completely wrong place to put this, I'm new here :3

Seen this done before, really cool ^^

Like reading a book - leaves a lot to the imagination.

Where is did you see it?

I'd like to see how they managed the same concept

This has been done a hundred times, not saying yours is bad or anything, just telling you it's the way a lot of old games were made.

[The Giblets of Jesus]

Well ye, like the really old D&D games.

When I asked about who else did the same idea, I thought you meant somebody else made one in Visual Basic

Has somebody made something else in VB?

[Armageddon]

Yeah, I made one in VB, it was called Zombie House, and you had to barricade and it would tell you how well you survived at the end. I never fixed up the code since I got bored with it though. Really buggy.

[The Giblets of Jesus]

Hmm, I wouldn't mind having a peek ta that at some point if it's not too much trouble

[Armageddon]

I don't even know where it is anymore, that was like 2 years ago.

I loved these text adventures on my TI-83 calculator. Game true meaning to maths!

[The Giblets of Jesus]

Has anyone actually played this and found any bugs yet?

[Plague]

Best lul I've had all day. So far so good, no problems with the game.

[The Giblets of Jesus]

Good to hear, I'll probably get some more work done today and upload

enemie -> enemy

[Plague]

After killing the beggar, the "shady man" in the corner of the inn was gonna give me a quest.
But when I followed him I get finished combat dialog and it says the beggar was dead.

I'm assuming the beggar was part of some quest?
