Aaron's Quest

A game for my nephew's 10th Birthday

Solve the puzzles. Find the hidden treasure. I created this game as a gift for my nephew, I thought it would be a fun way to provide him with a special birthday gift. It was a ton of fun to make and I hope you enjoy it. It was actually done last year, but I never got around to putting it up on BBs.

Based off the adventure tutorial by @MBoffin.

Special thanks to @Gruber for bringing the game to life with amazing tunes.

Disclosure: The actual treasure has already been claimed :).

Well, I've made my first game to a point that you can do something and I'm pretty darn proud of myself.

Enjoy popper!

UPDATED: Added an instructional note at the beginning of the game.

UPDATE2: Now with better-looking Popcorn AND you have to press the button until they all pop!

UPDATE3: Added more kernels and numbers are deleted from the table if they've been chosen making for a faster completion of the game by removing chance of selecting a kernel that has already been popped.

UPDATE4: Jitterbug! Kernels are now all very excited about popping.

UPDATE5: Maybe you aren't hungry for too many kernels. How about being able to choose from a few random amounts of kernels to pop? Well, now you've got it!

UPDATE6: Improved kernel and corn sprites and RANDOM rotation of popped kernels :)

UPDATE7: Added screenshake to popped kernels for a little bit of juicyness as well as changed the titles for the menu selection.

UPDATE8: I'm calling this trial game done. It's incredibly over-engineered and there are likely many places that can be optimized, but I love this little game that I made.
