Link. The
screenshot page was sorta funny. Here's the only relatively amusing comment from the passel of idiots that regularly post there:
Code: Select all
Owz0r: Shoot the red guy.
Shoot the red guy with what?
With the BFG.
Do what with the BFG?
Shoot the red guy with the BFG.
The red guy is no longer in the room with you. You see exits to the north and northeast. You hear a buzzing noise to the northeast.
NE
You ran into the red guy's Rocket. Your innards are splattered everywhere.
Hit space to respawn.

It says in the "Downloads" section that you can download it for Inform, but inexplicably, you also need the .PAK file from Quake.
Did someone actually go and write Quake for Inform? If so, that is great. If not, welcome to 2001 where a certain text game already handled the mechanics of shooting people in the face with a gun.
HEH HO HO HEH HA.

Yes. "snap" is much funnier. Quake is just part of the first level. Just like the Doom IF game, actually. You do not actually need the PAK file, although it would be great if you did--it could check for it, at least, and refuse to run if it did not find it.
I do hate Slashdot on 4/1. I think the front page of Caltrops.com says it best:
Get the fuck off my site you maggots
--SB
Don't like it? Blame Zseni and INC.

I was going to make a game called "Second Person Shooters" and enter it into the comp some year, but I guess I waited too long.

How do I get out of these wells of brown water? I keep falling into them, and I don't know how to get out.
The water is eating me.
HELP.
