Hi everyone! I can't volunteer for this topic but this was last year's: http://www.rprepository.com/community/forumthread.php?t=26263

If you're new to the game, this would be a good way to start out. I don't know if there are any changes this year, so a new volunteer can setup their own guide with updated info for this year.

A known bug at the moment is that dropping a magnet into a hole in the floor will crash the game. I don't know if Kim can fix that before Epic Week is over but if you have to drop the magnet, please do so away from any holes!

is that... is that a bat'leth i'm pushing around in doubutt? 0:

also, that feel when you gently nudge the weapon into the next room and it's BALL HELL and it gets bounced down a hole haha. RIP.

WHAAAAT? No. That is a totally original alien honorblade. If you happen to think that the race who made it has pink blood and forehead ridges that is your personal headcanon. We never said that. That was you saying it just now! I mean, why would you even THINK it?

This bug is now fixed.

Working on the lag in ice rooms next.

a strat that's been helping me: don't worry about sacrificing HP to nudge those pesky beetles off the edges. it's so worth it to save time and avoid disaster later. you can rummage for snacks in pots and relax at fountains everywhere so it's really not an issue.

In other news: THE GHOST IS HECKIN SCARY

Already shared this in the other threads, but still:

Already mentioned this in warrior thread, but wanted to share:

Of the old weapons, looks like rapier works best against the green (standard?) aliens, at least with the noisy crickets, and the axe against the pink. So should be rapier to green, axe to pink, and probably ray gun to other color I haven't noticed yet.

If that translates to the new ones, my guess is honor blade = axe, energy sword = rapier, and whatever that golden gun thing is = ray gun.

So honor blade to pink, energy sword to green, and golden gun thing to other color.

Tigless, if you see this: you're awesome. I keep getting weapons from you!

;/////; Thank you! I'm glad I could help ya out!

Heads up: A patch to address the lag in ice rooms just went live

Anyone having problems downloading/opening the game? I've updated Java, downloaded the game a couple of times... But the .jar keeps trying to open in IE all it offers me is <Save> or <Open>. I've got Win10. Is there something specific I need to run the installer?

Does this help? https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-files/jar-files-opening-in-internet-explorer/7ba93b60-1245-46f4-9f13-bd431d19dbb6

And those seeds will help restore forum forest? Tsk tsk, someone forgot to update the game text.

Can anyone tell me what the goal looks like? I thought it was pushing into the sky looking holes because well the items fall from the sky? I haven't play this game before I don't actually know what the finish is meant to look like. The instructions are a little unclear.

Also am I the only one struggling super hard on this game haha If its not pushing it to the right or left it kills me pushing upwards is my real struggle

The goal is a cannon, you'll know it when you see it Pippasuars. As for moving up or down, just place doubutt above the item to push down and vice versea for up.

Check at about 35 seconds. This is last year's video but the concept is the same! (This year we have scrap instead of seeds to collect lol)

It does and it doesn't. The options it gives me (like Paint, WMP, and Notepad) don't do much help.
