Hey everyone. My name's David, and I just decided to join the forum to get involved with the Quest community. I've uploaded one game, Sandbox Samurai, using QDK Lite. I haven't bought the full version simply because I can't afford it.

Just thought I'd introduce myself.

Welcome David.

Hi David! Welcome! I did see your game in the archive and I had already downloaded it but hadn't had a chance to play it yet. I'll let you know what I think after...

Here's a ham sandwich while you wait...

Ooooh, I could really go for a ham sandwhich...

In a French stick roll..
With cheese...
And lettuce....
maybe some salt and vinegar crisps in there too..

Thanks guys, I look forward to hearing your critique.

It's not technically my first game, but it is the first one I've done in a while as well as the first I've submitted.

You must be hungry!

I rather have a McDonald's Hamburger instead of a ham sandwich with cheese, lettuce and Salt and Vinegar chips in a French stick roll

And that's why Tron has a fit body...

uh...

Well I do actually!!

I was very tempted to take a picture of myself fresh out the shower while I was up in London!

.. Then I just thought I was too vain and curled up in bed because I wasn't at all well..

But everything's in the right proportions

Thanks for sharing.. err... thanks for NOT sharing. haha
As dashing as my body is, I don't think I ever have been tempted to take a picture of it fresh out of the shower... My wife probably wouldn't be too thrilled of me doing it either. haha

Hey David, I like the black background of the game and you seem to be mostly grammatically sound. I want to know though, was the game working properly when you uploaded it? I mean was there a way to get to the end? Do you mind giving a few tips on getting through it? I looked at it on QDK and I don't see how some of the objects will actually work. I don't see how the TV can be turned on, for instance. "turn on TV" isn't recognized.
I noticed in a couple different objects (twig, mousechuk) that there are commands or something entered in the action tab of the object's properties. I have no idea what it does or how it works. I saw something else startling in that tab also. There are commands that reference ~internal procedure 25 or 24, etc... yet under the game's procedure list, there are no procedures.
I'm asking all this because it appears some thought went into this game and I am curious what it is supposed to be doing.

Not to question your mighty rating procedure but does this rating of 4 mean you were able to play through to the end? Could you post a tutorial? Just curious.

Welcome David. I hope you enjoy using Quest.

Say, have you been into a eating contest lately?
Like the first one to eat a 5kg of Ham
If so what things have you won?

Em. I dont want to waste about 3 hours posting a tutorial or a walkthough but heres some verbs that I found and used to finish the game

turn on
turn off
use
look under
read
cut dvd with
flush
use on
tape object to
take twig to

Takes a lot of thinking

I think Its kind of scary

3 hours to write a tutorial? haha
I'm not making fun of you... I just didn't expect that answer.
I'll work on the game... and wait to hear from David.

Well it might be because I tried to make what I wanted to happen work one way and I couldn't get it to so I found an alternate way and simply forgot to delete it another way. Anyway, I'll go ahead and post a walkthrough.

1) Open DVD player.
2) Take DVD.
3) Move SW to Sister's Room.
4) Look under bed.
5) Open Scrapbooking Kit.
6) Type "cut dvd with scissors"
6.5) Take mouse.
7) Move NE.
Move NW.
9) Turn on the sink, then the bathtub.
10) Move SE.
11) Go Up.
12) Open drawer.
13) Take object.
14) Go down.
15) Go out.
16) Take Twig,
17) Type either "tape object to twig" or "tape twig to object"
18) Use the Sandbox.

That should do it. If that doesn't work let me know; that was all from memory.

Awww c'mon Steve, I'm sure your wife would be thrilled to have that santa's-hat-only picture of you on the end of the bed .
... not like I stole it or anything *gulp*

Say, have you been into a eating contest lately?

Nope, no eating contests.
Actually, I really only eat when I'm at home - that is properly anyway. While I'm out I might have snack bars, packets of crisps, biscuits and sausage rolls.. On the odd occasion I go into a good pub or restaurant I'll have salmon, or gammon steak, or beef steak, etc. All proper food.

No fast food (burgers, pizzas, etc). No currys (or other indian, or chinese or tai-food).
Mostly, I love cooking for myself - chicken, beef stew, cottage pie, pork chops.. Haven't really gotten into 'fancy food' but I may try my versatile hands some day.

[EDIT]
HAHAHA, I just noticed your comment Steve (vain one).. Oooo, you just wait till I put a sheep into that photo!!

Bwahaha...the wife comment was funny.
...and I love sheep. wakka wakka

I think step 9 that you can do the bathtub first then the sink or the other way round (Sink then the bathtub)

Oh I get what's happening. I am attempting to play this on the older 3.5 and it was created in 4.2 and apparently includes a library that I don't have installed. In that library, I assume there are "turn on/turn off" commands, etc... So in short, I can't play this/review this until I play it in the current version of quest. I'll get around to it eventually.

Please note for this Post:I was supposed to edit this message but I accendently press quote. I cant delete this message because davidw had replied.
So read the next post for the updated post instead of this one

Why dont you upgrade to Quest?
Is it just because you can make unlimited rooms like KQ game and unlimited object or is it because you are bored for upgrading it

that remind's me, I gonna check for a new upgrade of Quest

By the look of things, the walkthrough comprises 18 separate commands. In other words, a really, really short game. If it takes 3 hours to type all 18 in, well... words fail me...

On step 8 it had a smilie not

Edit: what just happened? I put an 8 then a ) symbol and ends up with this:

If you don't check "Disable smilies" in options, it will convert any appearance of 8), :D, or the like to an appropriate image.

One of these days, Michael, you're really going to have to work on your English. Even when I can be bothered to make the effort to read your posts, they seldom make any kind of sense.

Are you referring to the KQ game that you scored a one?
What is the point of your question? Don't answer that, it's rhetorical.
For your information, despite the fact that Quest 4 has been out for a year or so, I have not played with it and I had no idea that there were limitations. I opened it once when it first came out and decided I would wait to learn how to use the new one (if there were differences). I haven't been making any games in that long either. I got back into it when the Christmas contest was announced.

As a hint to you, if you do not wish for people to make fun of you on here, I suggest that if you have a question that really only pertains to me, send me a message and I will reply.

..
It was a reference to the Jay and Silent Bob movie.. Guess you haven't seen it.

No offence intended Steve.

oh, no man. No offense taken. Now I need to see Jay & Silent Bob!

"Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back," to be specific. Love Kevin Smith.

Gone from Naked Men to Sheep to the Jay & Silent Bob Movie...

Frightening, isn't it....

Very.
