mhoczny dom - beta testers wanted

KiraHaraReturns · Fri 15/07/2016 22:43:49

MD is a fpp riddle solving game with over 50 rooms to investigate and about 40 items to collect. What I need is some extra motivation to finish this game. I guess there are almost 90% done but I still have to type in the remaining scripts and make some rewarding animations so that the player will get at least a little bit satisfaction after solving some sophisticated puzzles;)and I'm not very content with the gui therefore it has to be reworked too.

some discarded graphics:

Glad you're back

hope to see this one in the completed games thread soon. I love how you make white dots on black backgrounds pop this way and blow my mind!

absolutely stunning!

I'm loving all of this. Keep up the great work :-)

Intriguing! The b&w palette looks very stylish.

Also: why not just call it Dahk House?

Though I'm sure it'll be hilarious to see LPers trying to pronounce Mhoczny Dom

Everything about this game is gorgeous!!!

It kind of sounds like a "The 7th Guest" kind of story but with those unforgettable 1-bit graphics that you have done....erm...somehow....

I SO need to play this game!!!

You've done really good using only pure black and white.
The game looks both very atmospheric and graphical.
And your choice to only use black and white, kind of reminds me of the hi-res mode you used to have on old computers.
Overall, very nice.

I was going to ask, but didn't want to known as the guy who keeps asking how to pronounce Polish words.

mhoczny should be quite a challenge to pronounce for the english speaking audience, the H has to sound like a german, hard and guttural R as a allusion to some polish people, who probably said L instead of R during their early childhood and had to learn it by using their throat because they wasn't able to generate the rolling R. Choosing that title was probably a bad idea, but I thought it would be inventive.

Love the black and white only palette, very moody atmosphere you got there.

Ah the name... I would say "impossible" to pronounce to any who aren't familiar with Polish or any language from that region of the planet. I'm not even going to try and I'm happy that I can silently say it in my head and no one will ever say "that's not how it pronounces.."

On the brighter side, am sure chances that you choose a name already "taken" is very slim. at least in the English speaking community.

I already checked it and it is absolutely unique

Wow wow wow very good use of b&w

NickyNyce · Wed 10/08/2016 20:01:11

This does look great, and fun!

It reminds me of a game I played last year...White night on the PS4. Keep up the good work.

Awesome style! Looking forward to this unpronouncable gem!

DBoyWheeler · Wed 10/08/2016 22:03:17

From the screenshots, it almost feels like an "updated" version of the really old Sierra game "Mystery House".

Anyway, best of luck to you in updating this.

I bet everyone is going to pronounce it as "Meh-hoe-cuz-nee Dom". So not unpronounceable. Just impossible to pronounce it how KiraHaraReturns intended.

arj0n · Thu 11/08/2016 21:10:38

Lovely style, can't wait to play this one.
