Continuing the tour of Swampville, there's a new section added to the south where we find the city docks.
Here's Nonlinear, captain of the S.S. Bonaire, who can transport us to the locations of special quests:

Back to the town center, where we'll take a look at some more of the town businesses.

And now let's check out elflaco's Apothecary and Spiced Jams. This leads to my first attempt to program a small proper quest in the module. elflaco wants you to use his newest sauce to take out a troll in his basement.
Head down to the basement where sure enough we find the troll:
Equip the sauce from our inventory:
And give it a quick heave:
With the job done, we report back to elflaco who rewards us with a fe more jars we can use on other trolls we might run into.

Re: SwampVenture (New RimWorld-ish game thing) - Big Update!
Thanks for the feedback everyone, glad you like it. I'll have some more updates in the coming days and beyond.
Crowdsourcing time - I'm looking for ideas for:
- the name of duff's blacksmith shop
- a name for an island where a quest takes place
- any other ideas for quests, places, etc. or anything else you'd like to see in the game
Ideas that are Swamp-related references would be great, but anything else is welcome as well.

RBaller3 Island
A quest to find the end of of the various aborted SWAMPCRASH seasons and/or the top selling midsize pickup of 2011 or whatever it was, or to find TT’s lost admin credentials, or the front page and/or scores, or…. Gonna go drink and see if I can think of anything else along those lines.
This is great shit dude. Though I’ll resent you so much if I end up not just buying a game to play this but a PC powerful enough to do so. Unless I can get work to cover it.

The game is 20 years old so it should run easily on any PC (including laptops) you may have around. I also tested it on the mobile version and it seems to be working fine.

Re: SwampVenture (New RimWorld-ish game thing) - Big Update!
Thanks again for the input, everyone. I've been working a lot on a few different things which I hope to share before long. In the meantime, here are some odds and ends.
A few more custom portraits have been added, along with some character descriptions:
AB will eventually have his own quest, but for now I put him as the bouncer at the Yacht Rock tavern who accosts you if you try to talk to Chris and Mike.
cerrano is the captain of the guard who maintains the Swampville town gate and won't let you in without the right pass phrase (which you learn from a quest).
And to show I'm listening to your feedback:

Re: SwampVenture (New RimWorld-ish game thing)
The first main quest I'm working on and hope to share before long is when you're first making your way through the wilderness towards Swampville. bengal is the first Swamper you'll meet. Here's a dialogue teaser:

Re: SwampVenture (New RimWorld-ish game thing) - bengal's Quest, Part 1
Alright, here we go. This is my first real attempt to program a more involved quest in the game. This will be the opening sequence of the game as you start off in a forest on the outskirts of Swampville, with your goal being to navigate your way to the town. Things seem peaceful enough at first, however you soon come across the remnants of a merchant caravan that has been attacked and looted:
The culprits reveal themselves as you are ambushed by a small group of goblins. This is a tough fight for a beginning character, but you should be able to handle it if you are prepared:

Re: SwampVenture (New RimWorld-ish game thing) - bengal's Quest, Part 1
With this first group of goblins dispatched, we advance further down the path and encounter our first Swamper, bengal:
Here's an example of how the game gives you multiple options. I'll select the second option and tell bengal to buzz off:
We can continue on toward Swampville, however when we reach the town gate we encounter Guard Captain Cerrano, who lays out the situation:

Re: SwampVenture (New RimWorld-ish game thing) - bengal's Quest, Part 1
Since we don't yet have the password, might as well head back and see what bengal has to tell us:
If you accept, bengal joins up with you and the quest advances to the next stage.
bengal further explains that the goblins are led by three notorious chiefs: Chief Mahomzz, Chief Kelzee, and Chief Riiid:
In a few days I'll be back with Part 2, as we see what happens when we team up with bengal to infiltrate the goblin base.
