OK, I was playing Elephant Quest today and I noticed some glitches that might not have been noticed.

1. The Double-Jump. Im not sure if John wanted to have the double-jump (done by pushing against a ledge and jumping while pushing then jumping again. It's actually in all of John's Elephant Games) in this game or not, but without it there would be no way to reach this kind of height.

2. Getting stuck in the underside of blocks. Whether it was double-jumping or regular jumping, I found myself stuck inside the underside of blocks quite frequently. Sometimes I was able to get out, but other times I was forced to refresh the whole page to continue playing.

3. I found also found myself standing in mid-air on invisible ledges........?

4. In one of the "Cloudy" stages I found a hole in the wall with a small ledge. If you were to go slightly right from where I am standing, you would find yourself falling through the wall and dying.

5. I found a ghost block in one of the ruin stages that you cannot land on and can freely jump through. I had to pause the game to get this picture, but if you look inside the yellow circle you can see the elephant inside the block.

Now don't get me wrong, I greatly enjoyed Elephant Quest and still think that John is one of the best game developers on this site.

I also found that some lasers beams shot by your helpesr, if you have many, get frozen and stick in the screen. Idk if that's just me.

If you are holding the lasers down and go off the game screen and let go then come back in the screen the your lasers will stay on. If your talking about minions doing this then I don't know....that hasn't happened to me.

I get a weird bug, I start the game fine, but then I end the first cutscene, and I start in area 5, with 400/400 HP, and max XP!
There is no elephant, and the minimap is wacked!
Windows XP with Google Chrome (which has auto-updating flash).

Once when I look at map (clicked level-location visited) and come back, my minimap bugged.It`s imagine just stukked at black zone, but it changed levels number when I changed level.But it fixed when I looked map again.

I got stuck on the underside of a block. i refreshed, and suddenly the enemies are flickering in and out of existence and i can't see myself anywhere. I am unable to do anything.

Please, this is a marvelous game with wonderful scenes, great gameplay and a unique leveling system, but please get the codes checked. There is no way this many people ought to be having problems. This game has the potential to be one of the most popular on the site, as is shown by the buzz it has created in such a short time.

John, if you see this, please do something, I want to carry on playing without problems.

I left him a comment on his profile and I might make GS thread for this too.....not sure what'll happen yet.

@gaboloth

Woah.....thats weird and cool. Do they continue to inflicy damage and does it happen in every stage or just certain ones?

I found another hole in a wall in another cloudy stage.....the yellow arrow shows how I got there. http://i1195.photobucket.com/albums/aa397/MusicMan1022/Miscellaneous/fvvrvrvrvr-1.png

I also found that our lasers have a limit? They act like sticks and have an end even if nothing is obstructing them..... http://i1195.photobucket.com/albums/aa397/MusicMan1022/Miscellaneous/vrvrvrvrvrf.png

Haha, that's the mark of the exit path player, trying to reach every spot

Nope, no damage... It would be too easy XD and it happen quite in every level, but it happen more often in the level with lots of shootings like the boss fight.
Also, I got all the squares in the screen where you spend the credits, but I still need some ability points D: it could be caused by the random yellow squares.
And the cat quest vanished D:
still a wonderful game though.

I am a tricz player and have gotten all known tricz in Exit Path, but the point of this thread is to find/report glitches in Elephant Quest.

(You should check out my profile....I have a slideshow for some fun Exit Path tricz....)

Oh, and about the limited lasers, that's probably just the way john made the game... But I don't know why he did that. I don't really think making the lasers as long as the stage diagonal would have been too heavy for the game...
