Since the last update, DQ has been a 48k, then a 128k, now a 256k game. I didn't release a 128k version since I wanted more maps. I've added

several maps such as another overworld map, caves and additional dungeons.

I've also started maps for a sky tower and so far two floors have been added. A title screen and "game over" have been added. This game is still a demo and there are still bugs and other things I need to fix. One noticeable one is the first cave map has slow down and I need to find what's (possibly a plotsprite issue) causing it.

Please let me know through the blog comments or even PM if you run into any problems.

Overview:

You're a draker, a dragon-like creature, and while living on Draker Island, a mysterious spell has been cast all over the island. The spell cannot

make the little drakers fly and it's up to you to find out what or whom is behind the spell. All you have is your fire orb to fight enemies that

appeared after the spell was cast. Long ago, sections of the island were divided with gates. Dungeons below hold the keys to open the gates. But the dungeons are full of enemies.

VERY IMPORTANT: The Prosystem emulator will NOT work with this game. You'll need to use MESS or some other emulator that can support 256K. http://www.mess.org/start
