Scoglionario
![]() |
Scoglionario is a question based game, based on the famous "Who wants to be a millionaire" ("Chi vuole essere milionario" in italian) tv show. The player is asked increasingly difficult general knowledge questions by the host. Questions are multiple choice: four possible answers are given and the player must choose the correct one. On answering the first question correctly, the player wins 100 (dollars or euro, it is the same -> nothing real). Subsequent questions are played for increasingly large sums (roughly doubling at each turn). If you answer bad, you lose and win the lower (yellow colored) sum. |
15 Aug 2007 - Scoglionario 0.1 is out!
Features
- Autodetecting system language and loading the specific questions pack (only italian and english for now)
- DLDI compatible (tested on NinjaDS and R4)
- Help: 50/50, Phone a friend, Ask the audience added (realtime-antani-randomizer-supersexy percentage builder thanks to AKBG)
- Question stored in txt file (one for each 14 levels) so editing questions is easy
- Themed as similiar as possible (sound and graphics) the original game
- I didn't write the questions, I just used the files I found on google, so don't blame me if they are not good! ;)
- Patch the game with appropriate DLDI and put wherever you want inside the card
- Put the "data" folder in the root of the card, or if you have the data folder yet, just put the "scoglionario" folder inside the "data" one on the card.
- If you plan to use on emulator (only DeSmuME was tested) put all the questions file of your prefered language in the same folder where the rom is.
Drawback 1: since sound is garbled in the emulator, it is disabled (you can still turn on in the options screen). Drawback 2: you lose half on entertainment not playing on real DS! - Enjoy
Update: added the .sc and .ds.gba version in the package! Sorry :)
Adding new questions is straightforward:
- Open the questions_XX.txt, where XX is the level number (0 -> first question, 14 -> last question)
- Add (or edit) a new question, using this simple template:
"question","answer1","answer2","answer3","answer4",X (X is a number from 1 to 4 representing the correct answer)
Example: "What is this game title?","Who wants to be me?","Super mario bros","Ti amo Valeria","Scoglionario",4
Important: Do not use the " (double quote) char inside the fields, use the ' (single quote) instead!
- Adding better graphics (artists needed)
- Add exit button for not answer and leave the game
- Ranking
- Kill bugs (please send notifications here)
- Print real money from the DS if you win 1000000 (working on it)
