If at all possible, I could make an intro animation in Flash for the text adventure, but I don't know how to add it to the game.

instead of apple how about you're just a professional c# programmer. :-?
edit- flash movie sounds cool. 8)

OK, that's fine.
Do you mean a full animated movie of this? I could if you want, but it won't get finished for a LONG time. I've got like 2 or 3 other animations to finish...

well it probably wouldnt have to be done until the game is done + if it's just an intro, then id say between 30seconds and 60 seconds. or is that too long or too short?

umm, I don't know, how much time it takes up doesn't really have a limit. It could be an hour intro, but it would take a VERY long time. The question I'd be more concerned about is how you're going to play the intro through QB?
Again, we just need a good story to begin with, then I could probably make a good intro.

ok, i guess i shouldve just said 'its a game, not a movie'
and the only way i could think to have the intro playing in qb is
instead of loading it, just make a starter program or just build it into the game itself, when it starts, it loads the flash movie in the flash player. once its done, close it, and continue. if someone else knows how to do this, that would be good.

heres a good story line:
you were fired from a microsoft branch, so apple hires you and you go to microsoft's secret island (you have to "hack" into microsoft's computers to get the location), and you then play "james bond" and do some hard core espianage......may want to include something about Windows Vista (since it copies apple's OSs so bad).....then you have to kill Bill Gates (but he gets a nose job, so you don't recognize him, and he ends up helping you throughout the game, then you kill him)
lol

A while back I was programming a freebasic version of Clue, but it was called QuickClue, for Quicktime.
The main premise: someone stole the new apple x version: chinchila. There were multiple suspects (including Bill Gates).
Maybe you're some scientist who helped work on chinchila who was kidnapped, but you escape and have to find your way off the island.
btw, do we dare put any type of graphics, maybe ASCII?

Whatever you want to do, I don't want to make all of the calls. I don't know ASCII.

probably should just keep it as text right now......i suppose we can always add in ascii later
