  Get your dose of 1980' Adventure games in full S-W-F

  So, if you are stuck or got any questions, feel free to ask in this thread. Enjoy being given
  vague hints.
  Read the intro description carefully.
  ̶I̶̶t̶̶'̶̶s̶̶ ̶̶n̶̶o̶̶ ̶̶s̶̶h̶̶a̶̶m̶̶e̶̶ ̶̶t̶̶o̶̶ ̶̶p̶̶l̶̶a̶̶y̶̶ ̶̶i̶̶n̶̶ ̶̶e̶̶a̶̶s̶̶y̶̶

  DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS
  And don't forget to pick up that gateway, else you're fucked!

  When you're in a room, look (at the room) immediatly. (just press "l")
  "e THING" examines THINGs, do that with everything/every person
  every THING has a short name (you see in brackets when examining)
  e.g. The "Virtuanet Portalizer" is also the "portalizer"
  Talk to everyone!
  Pick up stuff / don't eat (important) stuff!
  Common mistakes: Type only "w" to go west (left). Typing "go w" searches for a portal named "w".

  Also, please do yourself a favor and NOT play this in embedded mode.

  I'm a fucking noob when it comes to this shit. I talked to the Scientologist and now i'm stuck. I
  have the Hyperlink

>> [_] æ !Dd7n98Z5E6 12/25/16(Sun)02:51:15 No.

  >>3193499
  Better use it then!
  Use it on something...
  Maybe the url it hyperlinks to?
  If there only was a way to examine which site it leads to...

  I actually figured it out before I saw your response. I got to Shii and put her in the bag of
  holding for keks and then my computer decided to reboot. FML

  Anyways, I downloaded this so I can play it later. Thanks and Merry Christmas faggot.

>> [_] æ !Dd7n98Z5E6 12/25/16(Sun)03:01:14 No.

  And don't forget to take her box as well!
  Merry Christ-mas you too, bruh.

  Zeta, the creator, here. Just got done streaming for youtube a bit ago, came this way and saw
  someone posting this again after all this time. Are you the same person that posted it last time?

>> [_] æ !Dd7n98Z5E6 12/25/16(Sun)03:30:28 No.

  >>3193506
  Yup, I have a habit of playing through this once a year. Just to see if I still can, and also got
  nothing better to do than spend my christmas night on /f/, I guess.
  Also, appreciate the post, especially since interest in most games declined over the past years.
  It has been posted 2-3 times other than that though.
  Nice to see the creator of something like this still visits the board every now and then on the
  holidays!
  Happy Gaming :)

  im stuck early on in the game, im at the point where i got a hyperlink to vg but im not sure
  where im suppose to use it at, and im somewhat certain it has to do with the cyber guy somehow

>> [_] Anonymous 12/25/16(Sun)03:40:24 No.

  >>3193509
  I'm glad that one person out there celebrates this piece of garbage once a year. Most, if not
  all, other people have no doubt completely forgotten it in this new era of memes.

  I still have the source code, but trying to open it in modern flash makes it flip right the fuck
  out. I even have the test swf from when I first started making it.

>> [_] æ !Dd7n98Z5E6 12/25/16(Sun)03:40:24 No.

  >>3193510
  Wait wat? I asume you mean /v/?
  The Cyber fag (on Habbo) is just some random fag, no interaction required.
  Well I suppose it has to be that fucking firewall on 4chan right?
  There are more portals there and right next to the entrance should also lie the one leading to
  /v/.
  Can't get through that Permaban? Dude, I'm behind seven proxies! I swear I saw one on Habbo as
  well.

>> [_] æ !Dd7n98Z5E6 12/25/16(Sun)03:47:16 No.

  >>3193512
  Could'a sworn to have heard the same thing last year! ;)
  I will do as long as I remain a /f/ag. From the moment I played through it the first time here,
  till the day I die. I got some sweet nostalgic memories for this flash. Probably the first time I
  was up ALLLLLL NIGHT just to finish it with only a fraction of a walkthough and my wits on memes.
  AND I DID. (even if only with some help from decompiling it, that fucking /5/)
  Maybe someone on swfchan would want to fancy something with the sauce? I highly doubt it though.

>> [_] Anonymous 12/25/16(Sun)03:53:21 No.

  I'm wandering around /jp/ and I'm stuck. Visited all the areas. Put on some pants. Took Machine
  Code and a bunch of bowls of ramen. Got raped by a tentacle monster. What do I do now?

>> [_] Anonymous 12/25/16(Sun)03:55:07 No.

  >>3193513
  im not seeing anything about a proxie

  this is what i have:
  [Gateway][Butter][Fake ID][Hypodermic Needle][Pokeball][Hitachi Magic Wand][Shii][Shii's
  Box][Ramen][Ramen][Ramen][Ramen][Ramen][Dust][Sheets][A dollar][Dust][Sheets][Hyperlink][Briefcase
  ]
  i already ate the popcorn, and im not sure if there is anything im suppose to do with the beds

>> [_] Anonymous 12/25/16(Sun)03:55:28 No.

  >>3193514
  i didn't know what the hell i was doing when i made this, the sauce is garbage and I hate it.

  If I had ever wanted to do this again, I would make it so much less clusterfucky and way better
  without even breaking a sweat.

  It's really interesting to know how much better I am at programming shit at flash than I was 8
  years ago, and still somehow know so little to where I'd still only be able to make mostly just
  text adventures, albeit significantly more fancy.

>> [_] Anonymous 12/25/16(Sun)03:59:29 No.

  >>3193515
  Never mind. I found the ID.

>> [_] æ !Dd7n98Z5E6 12/25/16(Sun)04:02:16 No.

  >>3193517
  OC is always welcomed.
  Too bad that flash has pretty much died as a game engine (apart from that fucking [H]).

  >>3193516
  Hmm, unless you're wearing an afro I can't help you. Have you seen someone wearing an Afro? You
  should get an Afro, dude.
  Like the legendary duck, from the legends of Closed Pools.

  HINT: GET THAT EASY MODE ON. IT WILL TELL YOU WHICH ITEMS ARE "NECESSARY" ON BEATING THE GAME
  (will say QUEST ITEM, when examined, not working inside containers though, I think).
  Just type "I SUCK COCKS", no really, do it!

  >>3193515
  >>3193518
  You kinda answered your question yourself anyway. Too bad Machine code is no more...

>> [_] Anonymous 12/25/16(Sun)04:07:56 No.

  >>3193519
  I'm still kind of stuck. I went into the theater and took all the items. I'm assuming I should
  use the wand on someone but I can't find someone it works on.

>> [_] Anonymous 12/25/16(Sun)04:11:25 No.

  >>3193519
  flash having been thrown under the bus so hard hurts me greatly, not for gaming so much as just
  it's an important staple of my creativity. I have an adobe AIR app that basically fuels my entire
  youtube channel. I'll use flash until it's literally impossible to anymore

>> [_] Anonymous 12/25/16(Sun)04:12:52 No.

  >>3193519
  i am already wearing the afro and i think the only dude that i saw with the afro was the nigra,
  who i gave aids to recieve a briefcase and the hyperlink, im not sure if there is another afro
  dude

>> [_] Anonymous 12/25/16(Sun)04:13:02 No.

  Also hi other person thanks for playing my ancient shitty game.

  I'd give advice but it's literally been years so I don't even remember half of what was important
  myself!

>> [_] Anonymous 12/25/16(Sun)04:14:51 No.

  >>3193523
  I didn't take the Gateway before going to /jp/ so I guess I'm just fucked.

>> [_] æ !Dd7n98Z5E6 12/25/16(Sun)04:15:41 No.

  >>3193523
  It's not always that simple. I tried using it on the tentacle monster, to no avail. Some items
  come in rather handy WAY later in the game.
  Like /d/ or /f/ being very far endgame, while /jp/ is the first board you visit!

  Also, brah, do you even portalize? GET your gateway OUTTA THEERE!

  >>3193524
  True. It just feels like an era ending.
  I can see all the reasons (security, etc.) why it was dropped, and dumb games are not going
  anywhere (NOW ON IOS), but still...
  Playing flash games while everyone else is still occupied with figuring out bubble sort just
  smells like ye olde days for me.

>> [_] Anonymous 12/25/16(Sun)04:17:59 No.

  >>3193528
  i apologize from 8 years ago for that awful thing i did of not making you take it to start the
  game
  but thankfully you only have to repeat like maybe a few minutes of shit from the start to get
  where you were

>> [_] æ !Dd7n98Z5E6 12/25/16(Sun)04:21:11 No.

  >>3193526
  Samurais can have afros too!

  Guys, guys, I wrote the intro for a reason ;)
  Maybe you even are, did you check your "equipment" on the inventory page? Sometimes items do go
  to your i directly.

  Little protip: Always type l (lowercase L)
  It should be your goto command. It just f5 the page basically and you get a clear view on things.

  >>3193531
  I once thought you can circumvent this when you die. But dying on the internet just respawns you
  there. Welp, go figure. Would have been a nice extra to see that whole hell and get back your
  precious gateway.

>> [_] æ !Dd7n98Z5E6 12/25/16(Sun)04:23:56 No.

  >>3193526
  Oh sorry, you already have it.
  Well, then, remove that piece of shit and put it on somewhere more useful.
  I'm not gonna repeat myself.

>> [_] Anonymous 12/25/16(Sun)04:28:02 No.

  >>3193532
  if I ever someday remake it to be less shitty or make a shitty sequel, i promise:
  -auto scrolling text so you can read it as it writes
  -slightly less strict commands
  -a gateway that has been permanently drilled into your virtual spine so people would stop getting
  trapped on the internet like retards
  -a secret command that would just spray dicks all over the screen

>> [_] æ !Dd7n98Z5E6 12/25/16(Sun)04:33:04 No.

  >>3193535
  Sounds promising enough.
  But desu, even if you just strip the gateway to your underpants, it will not make you read walls
  of text better. And in Textadventures there will be those, no matter what. If people don't read
  they won't enjoy them anyway.
  I even saw the gateway joke as a meme here and there. But yeah, breaking your game IS kind of a
  bummer.
  Then again, I killed the internet on my first playthrough and that screws you completely as well.

>> [_] Anonymous 12/25/16(Sun)04:35:41 No.

  >>3193538
  I remember when I first released that, and people had referenced not taking the gateway a bit.
  Good times!

  I forgot you could kill the internet. I had only remembered eating all the ramen would fuck you
  over, and that I had specifically added one more ramen into the sandbag in the zork area just in
  case.

  How to use 1st hyperlink?

>> [_] æ !Dd7n98Z5E6 12/25/16(Sun)04:38:40 No.

  >>3193541
  see
  >>3193501

  Hyperlinks go onto portals that are inactive.
  Like if you can't go to /a/ from 4chan then you want to use the (proper) hyperlink on /a/ and
  then go /a/.

>> [_] Heaven 12/25/16(Sun)06:02:37 No.

  You can always log off AND JUST DO IT FAGGOT.
  Also: turn that fucking music off. I didn't ask for those feels ;_;

  Alright, another run finished, that's it for me.
  Until next year, folks!
  Have a good one.
