This was a freeware RPG that was swimming around on the internet, I found it a while back when I still had my ol' computer and today I had a craving for it. I went back to Gamehippo.com to try and find it but the dl link is broken and the homepage for it is just gone.

It was a game that was described as "This is to RPGs as Southpark is to cartoons" It was wonderfully mad and aside from graphics (never really is a problem to me) could rival retail games on it's time (1998). And most of all it was funny, do you guys know how hard it is to get an RPG to make you laugh?

Does anyone know where I can find a copy of this game in it's full glory?

Strangely enough, a google search for that shows this thread as the only hit. On another note, I have the ideas for an old console style RPG, spruced up a bunch to my likeing, which will be a satire of old console RPGs, but possibly have a good plot underneath all of the jokes... It's still in concept form until I figure out how to actually go about making it the way I want to (No RPG Maker for me), but when I do make it, it will kick ass or never be released because it does not kick ass.

Edit:I've done a little perusing, and I don't know where you could find it, yet. Sorry, mate.

Huzzah, Chapter 1 can be found at this link at the bottom. Let me know if that's the right one.

Edit: Also, he (probably a he) coded it all in QBASIC? That's

10 PRINT "Impressive."

Oddly enough it looks like Slade's in the same boat as me, except I supposedly have the knowledge but lack the drive. RPGmaker 2000 creation will do for me for now, providing I don't discover my crackpot idea for battle animations is fatally flawed.

Is that the right file or no, Kirby?

Edit: That link, while heavily botched to begin with, goes to Microsoft's homepage when typed in properly.

Can you draw or compose music with any proficiency, Chyld?

Ya, I'm with you - I really wanna play it now; after hearing that. But unfortunately Slade's right, this is the closest hint off Google. In fact, that's how I got here in the first place biggrin.gif .

The chances of that are pretty slim I'm afraid.

Sorry.

Holy Nefarious Necromancers, Laughlyn! His copy doesn't work!

We must find a way to fix it, but only after various heroic poses!

Enough of you and your batman parody. Besides, I'm far more inclinded to villany.

But in this case I will once again suggest running it via dosbox, since it doesn't seem to like XP much.

(Sime, how about we sticky that link somewhere to save me sounding like a stuck record?)

Now, back to my hidden volcano base to concoct a ridiculously complex scheme to take over the world!

Mwahahahaha!
