Epic Tale Of Guitars and Kings

Coolness★★★★★★★★★★10%
Being my first LD and not having much time this weekend, I just made this bizarre little gamebook about guitars and kings and battles. At times it's cheesy, at times it's epic. At times it references bands you've might have heard of. Thanks so much for playing my stupid little game! (I also never made a full game in twine before! So this was also part of the "try something new!" approach!)
EDIT: It turns out, the ending is very buggy, as I was rushing to finish and worked right up to the submission hour, I can't access the file for some reason as it's corrupted, and the non corrupted version is somehow missing, so this bugged version will have to do. Thanks for dealing with it (if you do).

Interesting with a game that's about guitars.
I don't always get the lingo :)

But fresh with something else than castles...

I got a few bugs in the game. Some of the passages didn't have any links in them (dressing room and something in the tavern) and when the robot appears there was a bad if statement about crew.

I also got quite a lot of bugs when trying to fight the king, couldn't really complete any further.

Always glad to read more interactive fiction. (I got trapped in the dressing room as well)

Interactive fiction is always cool. You had a few broken passages and overall the pacing of your story wasn't so good, but this was an enjoyable read. :)

Well, it certainly is longer than i initially expected. Can't say it's a good thing though - 6th dimension quest seemed too typical and generally sounded like uninvolved sequence of events to me, so yeah, i liked the first part more.

I really would advise to write less, but more careful/thoughtful. Congrats on shipping finished (if pretty bugged) version though.

Good work with a twine, my entry was one too! There's a small bug when you go into the guitar room. Some audio would have been great with this.
