Still Here, After Wednesday Night (Beta) Update 3

          Hey, everybody, great news! I got the save feature to work and spent several hours getting all the bugs out and making sure everything was actually saved! On top of that, I added a good amount of little fixes and feature to the game. I'm going to take down the old versions and upload these new ones. Again I'm putting two different styles, because I like choice: An actual program file (recommended one--also more awesome one) and a straight console file. How to make it work is exactly the same as how I said on the other post HERE. Refer to that post if you forgot. All files are zipped.
          I still need someone to beta-test the puzzle difficult--so download (though not on you phone *smile*), play, have fun, leave comments.

UPDATE 1 (11/28/11): Added Continue option after dying, a few minor fixes, as well as some minor additions. Enjoy. (P.S. Only the program file has been updated)

This video is really cool. The Red Hot Chili Peppers always have cool videos.

Save Added!? To My Test Game

          I've added saving to my game! It mostly works, but I'm still testing/fixing bugs. I've a bunch of bugs already and may have got them all but I have to do a thorough test. It's too late and I'm too tired to do more. The real main problem I have to figure out is to keep time. The current system won't work properly if the player saves and continues. I'm so tired...I can't think, but it stuck on my brain--I can't stop thinking...

Still Here, After Wednesday Night (Beta) Testers Wanted

It's a text-based game--this is really the only screenshot I have.
          Hey, I need someone test this game I made to see if its puzzles are challenging and not impossible and also able to be solved within about 30-60 minutes. Another thing I want the beta-tester to look for is usability; is it user friendly. Lastly, did you have fun and how was the dialogue and story. The game is a text-based old adventure game. It's a test project. I really do need your help and to express myself better, here are The Beatles with Help!

UPDATE 1 (7/14/12): I no longer need testers for this. I've been done for awhile and forgot to update this page. Thank you if you were a tester on the game. The current version is 5.1.0.1, which you can download for free: Here. Enjoy.
          Would-be beta-testers will get their names in the credits! I will leave two mediafire links below so anyone can download the beta. The two link are just alternatives to each other. They are in zipped folders. The first link is a program file version: just open it and double click on the file named 'Still Here, After Wednesday Night (Beta)'; the second one is a straight console file version, just open it and double click on the file named 'Program'(NOTE: Not Program.cs).
         Thanks and enjoys. Mata ne.

P.S. The game is about 30 to an hour on the first playthroughs (depending on how difficult the main puzzle is), about 5-10 on sequential playthroughs. Also, tell me if it's too easy to solve or is challenging, but I put in too many hints.

Adventure Game Test: Still Here, After Wednesday Night

          Hey, check out the title screen of the game I create in my IST class.
It's an old school adventure game
          I've been working on it for the last three week and I really proud of what I've accomplished, seeing as I original started it as just a way to get a little better at programming. I thought I would come to a point where it would just be to far beyond my skill level and I would stop. I doing beta testing now and making it more user friend. If anyone wants to help me beta test, please do!
