200+ DOWNLOADS! Wow, now we reached 200+ downloads! This is awesome! However, and unfortunately, I am beginning to lose interest in programming this game...this doesn't mean that I'm quitting the project, updates will just come at a slower pace...still, thanks for 200+ downloads!
Hello!
I am currently creating a text computer game called Planet Xinus.
An excerpt from the game:
You slowly wake, to find yourself in a cold,
small, metal cell. All you can see in
this cell is a stingy cot, welded to the
floor, a small barred window to the right,
and a metal door ahead...you feel quite
unsteady, but you figure that it's only
because you just woke...
If Facebook, Myspace, and Twitter were all destroyed, 90% of teens would go insane. If you're one of the 10% that would be laughing at them, copy this into your signature and hope it happens.
Can I help you? 0.0 I love text adventure games. I assume since most people on the forums are probably blackops fans, the only one they have ever played is zork... But I've played tons! I REALLY want to see this thing done, man!

thanks, but no. id like to have this be my own game, i havent made a full finished one yet, and id like my first one to be 100% me
That guy who told you not to continue was a dumbass who can't appreciate text games. You're a good writer, I can tell from the excerpt. Just a tip, can you change 1- to 1) and the same for the other options? It look way better.
wow, thanks a whole lot, that made my day! but i would like a seperator between the number and the option. how about i change the 1- to a 1)
actually, sorry, but now that i think of it...i like the 1- .
Umm... What do I open the Mac version with? It keeps opening it in text edit. (Is that on purpose...?)
This is probably the easiest way...
1. Rename the .sh file you downloaded to Xinus.sh and put Xinus.sh on your desktop
2. Open Terminal (/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app) 3. Type what is in these brackets. {cd /Users/YOURUSERNAME/desktop} 4. Press enter 5. Now type this {chmod +x Xinus.sh} 6. Press enter again 7. Finally, type {/Users/YOURUSERNAME/desktop/Xinus.sh}
*It should run. If it doesn't, it is either due to some internal syntax errors, which you can't fix unless you can code and will look something like this:
/users/YOURUSERNAME/desktop/Xinus.sh: line 1: @echo: command not found /users/YOURUSERNAME/desktop/Xinus.sh: line 2: goto: command not found : command not found/Xinus.sh: line 3: : command not found/Xinus.sh: line 4: :mainmenu : command not found/Xinus.sh: line 5: cls : command not found/Xinus.sh: line 6: echo. - P L A N E T X I N U S - : command not found/Xinus.sh: line 8: echo. : command not found/Xinus.sh: line 9: echo. 1- Begin Game : command not found/Xinus.sh: line 11: echo. 2- Information : command not found/Xinus.sh: line 13: echo. 3- Chapter Select : command not found/Xinus.sh: line 15: echo. 4- Quit : command not found/Xinus.sh: line 17: echo. : command not found/Xinus.sh: line 18: echo. /users/YOURUSERNAME/desktop/Xinus.sh: line 39: syntax error near unexpected token `press' 'users/YOURUSERNAME/desktop/Xinus.sh: line 39: `echo (press enter...)
or you typed something wrong* *Also, you shouldn't include the {brackets} in what you type into Terminal, that is just for organization when I write this* *Obviously, you should replace YOURUSERNAME with your username you use to login to your mac*
200+ DOWNLOADS!

DOWNLOAD [mediafire]
You need windows to play it!
Since the Mac version I put up didn't work, I deleted it from the post. Sorry Mac users!
If the game closes, that just means that's the end of the programming, or it hasn't been programmed yet.
Change Log:
V0.1.3: Added approx 5 screens; color; removed quit
button (seemed pointless)
V0.1.2: Added Chapter select; approx 4 more screens.
V0.1.1: Added approx 3 more screens
V0.1 First release
Report any bugs, glitches, etc, and come back frequently, to check for more updates!
Put this in your signature, and support the game!
It should look like this:
If you like it, tell me in the comments, or in the poll! If you DON'T like it though, please tell me why.
sorry i dont have pictures of FREAKING TEXT!
batch
The part where the brown creature tells you to exit is wrong. When you say 1 for exit cell, it makes you stay in the cell.
thanks, but no. id like to have this be my own game, i havent made a full finished one yet, and id like my first one to be 100% me
XD, it's still yours. I just meant ideas.
Sorry.
