I think perhaps I should have done more research on air travel to Sudwala, but was rushing to meet the deadline. You’re not the only one who got stuck on that one. When I looked at the map real quick it looked like Pretoria was the closest large airport, but it looks like Johannesburg is just as close and a bigger international airport. I included an easter egg at Athens that if you “ex booth”, you notice a clerk who you can “ask about Melissani” and they’ll tell you to fly to Kefalonia. Probably should have added more of those, but ran out of time. 

Glad you liked the CSD vibe! I loved playing that game when it came out. I think we got a free version when my dad bought some other software. the Gaelic name Naomh Seumas is intended to be a translation of SanDiego. 

Did you catch the other early adventure game reference?

It appears I should give more clues about which airports to ‘fly to’ next. 

I have that set up in Athens. If you ask the clerk at the information booth about Melissani they will tell you to fly to Kefalonia. I wasn’t sure if people would need that for the others, but other people are asking too, so I obviously should. 

The closest airport to Waitomo is Auckland. 

Thank you for for the feedback! Glad to here you have enjoyed my game so far .

From what others are saying also, it appears I should give more clues about which airports to fly to. 

The closest major airport to Sudwala is Pretoria. 

What commands are you using?

Are you using ‘look at ___’ to examine things mentioned in the descriptions?

I should do that. One big hint is that all the clues can be plugged into Google Translate. They should give accurate translations back into English. 

The other key is to determine which city you should fly to next based on the language/message of each clue. 

More generally, as with most text adventures itt good to ‘look at’ (or ‘ex’, short for examine) things mentioned in the description of a place. 

Did you find the first clue?

Perhaps I should give a better clue for this.  The next step is to determine which large city near Waitomo has an airport you can fly to. Let me know if you want a hint. 

Sorry, I'm still new to gamedev, and haven't learned how to create a downloadable version with this program, yet. I'll let you know if I do, though.  Thanks for your interest.!

Sounds great. Thanks!

Looking forward to hearing more about it. 

Are you planning on having another Text-Based Adventure Jam in the future?
