Smoke and Mirrors Strategy Game

[Qwerkey]

In this game you play as Marie Antoinette with your mission to rescue Louis XVI.  This is a game of strategy / puzzle solving.

You will need the User Manual to download all the necessary files.

The User Manual contains 1 walk-trough video in case you cannot work out what to do, though I would recommend not to view it.   Some of the solutions are (I think) rather fiendish: if anybody would like additional walk-throughs, I could add as necessary.

This game is a GL version of one I already did in SDL in 2015 (posted in [abandoned, outdated and now likely malicious qb64 dot net website - don’t go there]).  As far as I know, nobody actually successfully completed the game then, so I'd be interested if anybody can do this.

Hi Qwerkey, as you can see, another hidden affair showed the level of this forum. Not only do you have a maximum of one minute to edit your own code, but as a bonus, you have to add a large source code as ZIP, or it turns out as it turns out here, and as I have already writed Odin several times.  Insertion of source codes maybe has also been misused in the past. Everyone explains it differently. :-D

Welcome Qwerkey,

If I know Marie Antoinette, she would stop at every mirror and admire herself for an hour or so, no rescue of any number of Louis would be forthcoming.

[Qwerkey]

Oh, I didn't know that there was a limit to the size of source code, as Petr points out.  I have always (on that other site) liked to add the code whether it is included in an attachment or not.  I shall have to get used to the methods here.

Code not brief enough to fit a coding box should be attached for now, until a solution is found.

Welcome Qwerkey

bplus, thank you for your welcome, and I look forward to meeting the other members of your clan.  I stand in awe of your sister aplus, but offer platitudinous condescension to your cousin eminus.

Ha! it may be awhile before we see eminus again, he went into a coma trying to figure out what platitudinous condescension was.

(I confess scratching my head on that too.)
