great fun, and really good writing and programming! it gets a little repetitive over time, but i still had a good time with all the duels.
i ran into an error, however. in Zee Charcutier's fight, when he either waves the sausages or attacks i choosed to attack but got the other one. it seems you've mixed up the links, because when i tried it again and choose the sausages i attacked.
The writing is hilarious! I love the interpretation of the theme as well.
withoutpillow - thanks for the catch, all fixed now. And thanks for playing!
Ha, those dudes are awesome. I love what you've done with the theme! One of my favorite entries by far.
"Gentlemen," zee Courtesan sayz, "I charge for zee viewing!" A dozen coinz fly into zee cloearing.
Zee baguette hitz zee villain's side! If eet were a rapier, zee villain would be awash in blood. But eet iz not. Eet iz a baguette.
"Estoy aburrido y quiero luchar. Es simple, no?" Zee Monsieur doez not understand. Zee Spaniard iz impatient to fight.
Zee Marquis goez into a defenseeve stance! He wavez hiz sword slowly, dramatically in front of him and movez hiz feet like a danze. But dis iz no danze, dis iz a duel. Zee Marquis lookz silly.
Oh dear god, my sides.
The writing is hilarious but also a bit tiring over time. I really like the overall graphic look and feel of the game and the point that you actually catche the eye with the interpretation of "10 seconds"!
Adored your interpretation of the theme. Also, as someone who has just recently started using Twine, holy crap that is some awesome work with the interface. Super-impressed. Had a blast playing it.
Oh this is brilliant. I keep belly laughing at the writing.
Great entry. The Spaniard's story is the best!
Zut alors! Smartly written and plotted, this must have been a lot of fun to write and that enjoyment is infectious - I had a blast reading it.
Good writing and a great way to use the theme avoiding any relation with the time units!
It does get a little repetitive, but the writing makes up for it. Also, reading with a french accent is almost a feature ;P
Nice job!
Great writing. Also the first game Ive played of its kind so far. Good job! :D
Perfectly executed silliness.
Tiniest of tiny quibbles - with that much reading being a key part of the game the font of the body text combined with the exaggerated French accent becomes tiring to read after a while.
But overall, really great stuff (and I didn't know you could mess with the look of Twine games quite *that* much.. wow :) *plots, schemes, etc*)
Yeah, the length - of each passage as well as the whole thing together - is a pretty valid criticism, as well as repetitiveness. There's a lot I'd change about it - I think I'll write a postmortem in a couple days - but it's a big improvement over previous Twine projects of mine.
motty, Twine is just a glorified web page generator with an intuitive interface for the hyperlinks. So the look of a Twine game can be completely modified the same way you'd modify a website. I could make it look like (not act like) Twitter or Gmail if I were so inclined :)
Best use of theme. Ever.
Funny, but gets a little repetitive
Great writing, great graphic design. But in my opinion, zee bastard should be drinking Cognac.
Great use of twine and graphics. I like it and gets me inspired!
omfg, dis is zee best text game I ever played.
awesome writing, this kind of ideas need a full game to be develloped D:
Wish it had some actual gameplay, as opposed to excellent writing, but, on the other hand, it did have excellent writing! Please make more games.
oh god the accent is brilliant
I like the different take on "10 seconds." The concept is really funny, though the amount of text in parody French accent is a bit tough to get through.
Really well written, very funny. Great portrait art too.
