Fun in the Sun: Full Circle

PLAYED BY RETRODAD

Welcome to Fun in the Sun! Full Circle is a quest for ZQuest Classic, an engine that emulates a certain game from a certain console from the 80s. You'll be exploring a vast world of many monsters, dangerous dungeons, and sneaky secrets, to defeat evil and ride off into the sunset. The difficulty of this quest can be seen as considerably above that one game, so if you've played that already, you should have a tough, but doable experience. In the beginning. Also, depending on your abilities, this can take anywhere from around 4 hours to, well, an infinite amount of time. It just all depends on how often you wish to try again. I won't lie: you're in for a long, difficult journey. But also, you're in for a chance to persevere, to conquer, to seize victory! This quest is for those sorts of people, who believe they are up to the challenge, and much care and consideration has been done to strike a balance between tutorialization and a need to explore and innovate. I hope this is what you experience playing my quest, and even if you crash and burn somewhere in the middle, I still thank yo…

STORY / TIPS & NOTES
You are about to embark to a wonderful fantasy world where you will forge your own legend as a hero. Monsters prawl the outdoors, dragging the world into chaos. From the great castle of THE SUN does shadow rule over all FUN. It is here you will make your name. It is here you will fight for freedom.
You will be supported by the good people who still enjoy THE SUN, who foretell of a young hero (That's you!) to rise against the evil and free the world from shadow. Hidden safely from shadow's grasp are fragments of the GOLDEN POWER, fragments of concentrated THE SUN. With all eight fragments, you will receive great power and the privilege to enter the temple of THE SUN, where you will wage the ultimate battle against darkness.
Your quest will teach you through lush forests and trecherous mountains, through ruins ancient and mysterious, and through strange lands both enticing and dangerous. Your courage will guide you through dangers and defeat the shadows that will bar your path. You will experience all that the world has to offer, and through your bravery, triumph over all.
This is your moment to aspire to greatness, to be the hero that all others will aspire to. Your chance at greatness is at hand. You are ready to challenge the darkness, and win. This is your time to shine. It is your time to become the greatest hero ever known.
