[v0.17.1] Custom Puzzles / Quizzes (Mac)

Added 2021-12-20 11:12:14 +0000 UTC

In this version several minor bugs were fixed (some syntax errors causing annoying exceptions and the bug that caused a permanent health loss when being kidnapped).

Additionally, this version allows you to use your own images for puzzles, but already comes with three images (for those, who don't want to add their own images, though these images are high quality and include a new character ;) ).

How to add images to the Puzzle myself?

1. Find a image (.png / .jpg) sized 1000x1000px or larger. When the image is larger it'll be cropped down to 1000x1000px. I highly suggest only adding images sized 1000x1000 and cutting them down yourself. In case your image is larger than 1000x1000px, this is how the game would crop it:

2. Drop them into the folder game/images/conf/puzzle

3. Done and enjoy, the game might now pick this image when generating a puzzle.

How to add Quiz Questions to the game?

This is a bit trickier and requires a text editor (the built-in Notepad of Windows should be fine), however, using Atom (https://atom.io/) or Visual Studio Code (https://code.visualstudio.com/) will ease a lot. I do not recommend editing the questions if you do not have basic programming experience (doing something wrong might cause the game to crash when starting). For those who still want to edit the questions: "game_quiz.rpy" contains a "label registerQuestions:". Below that label statement, the questions are defined, feel free to add more questions yourself. Multiple question sets are not yet added and will not work accurately (they'll be used to have more difficult questions appear later in the quiz).

I would like to add some default questions to the game, their topic should fit to the game's topic, of course. Feel free to submit this form multiple times to suggest some questions: Suggest questions for the quiz

PS: The GoogleForm will not tell me any information about who filled it out. The first question is optional and would help me to contact the inventor of the question, in case I have questions about the question myself. If you'd like to stay anonymous, don't fill out that first optional question.
