What is Crystal Quest 1?
Crystal Quest is a game that I wrote in about 4 hours under QBASIC
4.5. It was my first real attempt at writing a proper game so don't expect
something brilliant. It is similar to "ladder man" and "ECWORLD" so enjoy!

If you want the full the version of this game including a level editor send me an email and I will send you a copy of it. Its still free, but I need feed back. For more info read README.TXT in the zip file. I may soon release it all since I can't think of any new ideas for levels and so could do with people to 'donate' their creations.
I have decided (due to various comments on my games, ie. good ones!) to finish off Crystal Quest (ie. finish the front end, write more levels, sort out bugs etc.) I've added sound (yes you heard me right) and music so far. I hope to be able to have about 50 fun filled levels when the game is finished. Any comments?
Crystal Quest 2 in developement! - Its getting good!


I have tried to build a Boulderdash / Repton clone of my own and as such the following things are implemented:
The Crystals are collectable.
The Exit opens when all are collected.
The Boulders drop and can be pushed and work (to my knowledge) with
no bugs.
Two types of walls - both work!
Bombs and explosions work with sprite animation.
Man can be crushed + explodes.
Scrolling information at the bottom.
Time Limit, Lives and Level Names.
Decent score finally added.
Highscore table.
4 Monsters added - Chaser, Super Digbug, Digbug, Monodon -

UPDATE 14/5/1999
Crystal Quest 2 now has a decent front end and the titles load a lot faster. It is now completable but this doesn't mean I won't add new levels.
Things that still need to be implemented:
Alternative sprite set loader and maker.
SOUND (SB / SB16 / SBPRO OR BLEEPER).
More sprite animation eg. man.
Final Monsters still need to be implemented (Prackman and Ghosty).
etc. etc.
If you have any suggestions for me send me an email

- now with 26ish levels, all fully tested and working. Please send bug reports and suggestions. This game is now playable and completable. So now anyone can play it and you don't have to be a programmer! Enjoy!!
This game is not actually called Crystal Quest 3 and does not follow the story however it comes in (graphically and gameplay wise) where Crystal Quest 2 left off. It is also on another page. However since Repton 2000 will be a fully customisable engine, I will create a level set and sprite set for CQ3 when it is finished.
UPDATE
Repton 2000 for QB is now called Repton Chaotix. Same game, different
name. Repton 2K is going to be written in DJGPP cuz QB45 sucks.
