Are you getting bored during confinement? VLC has something for you. Considering that this is VideoLAN, it is easy to think that it will be some multimedia content, and so it is… only in part. What he has made available to any interested party this afternoon is VLC Escape Movie, which is a movie and a game that we can enjoy from the same VLC. Here we are going to tell you how to do it.
But first: What exactly is VLC Escape Movie? As we read on the website they have opened today, an Escape Movie is the perfect mix between a escape game (Escape Game) and a movie. If we want to see the whole movie and survive, we are going to need all our cunning, but I am going to tell you a little something so that it does not happen to you like me and you can start playing as soon as you have everything ready. Otherwise, you will only see a looping video.
How to play VLC Escape Movie on Linux
All you need to play VLC Escape Movie is an ISO and VLC, the latest version to be exact. The steps to follow would be the following:
- Let's go to the web vlc studio.
- We click on the "Start" that is inside the TV. It will take us to WeTransfer.
- We click "Download" to download the VLC Escape Movie.iso file. It's 5.9GB, so the download will take a while.
- While it is downloading, we have to make sure that we have VLC 3.0.10 installed on our computer. If we don't have it, right now in Linux we have two options: the Flatpak, by clicking here, or the Snap, for which we have to enter in a terminal the command "sudo snap install VLC" without the quotes.
- Once we have the ISO and VLC 3.0.10 on our computer, we open VLC.
- We go to Media / Open file and select the ISO downloaded in step 3. The movie will start.
- We wait for the moment when a boy comes out in bed and we are already in the game.
I think it's important to mention a bit how to play or you won't understand anything: we just have to click on some points of the video. For example, I am not spoiling you or giving you important information if I say that the ornament that is a carnivorous plant can be clicked, which will kill us for a "retro death".
Awards
- The first classified will climb the stairs of the Cannes 2021 festival, with the trip and the hotel paid. In addition, he will take the gold cup.
- The second and third finishers will win the gold winner's cup and the VLC team hat, the top 100 certificate and some other goodies.
El Object of the game is to solve all the tricks of the 7 chests hidden in VLC Escape Movie. Once done, write an email to chest@vlc.studio with a short explanation of how each result was found. Will you be able to survive?
Hey.
Do you know how safes are opened?
I'm not asking you to tell me the combination, I mean I don't know if the digits are A + numbers + B or numbers + A or numbers + B or AoB + numbers or if putting the 5 correct numbers opens.
I have come a long way (I have even deactivated the bomb).
I have found four safes but have not been able to open any.
Flatpak or Snap? nuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu thank you, I will not aienar my apt dpkg
I will never break my distro with ubuntu or debian WITH THINGS THAT CANONICAL WANTS US TO USE, PEOPLE DO NOT USE SNAP OR FLATPAK, THEY ARE THINGS THAT GET OUT OF THEIR OWN LIBRARIES LOOSE IN THE SYSTEM, A HORROR. DOES NOT FIT IN APT IS FICTICIOUS. IF I DON'T HAVE THE PACKAGE I TRY TO UPDATE MY DISTRO. IF NOT, NEITHER LOCO APT OR FLATSHIT.
I WANTED TO SAY I'M NOT GOING TO BREAK MY UBUNTU OR MY DEBIAN WITH FLATPAK OR SNAP.
THIS IS THE SAME AS A BEGINNER WOULD DO WHEN HAVE A SYSTEM WITH APT AND START TO HAND BUILD AND INSTALL. IN THIS CASE THE SYSTEM KNOWS IT IS THERE BUT NOTHING GUARANTEES THAT CERTAIN CONDITIONS ARE NOT MET IN ORDER FOR THE SYSTEM TO STAY ROBUST THIS IS HORRING WHAT IS HAPPENING.
I LEFT FROM UBUNTU UNTIL THEY REMOVE SNAPD FOR NOW I USE MINT DEBBIE.
