I like the monkey island spirit of this game: good work!!

However small error concerning animation of the character when he moves...

sorry!!!

Great stuff Kinoko,

I just got round to playing it, and it was very impressive, played it all through in one sitting, got stuck a few times but eventually fuggered it all out.

I enjoyed the story and loved the attitude of Alexander (except for his feelings for cricket) excellent job, and I'll be looking forward to whatever else you decide to release, keep up the great work.

Thanks everyone! I really appreciate the feedback!

Just in case anyone posts anymore bug repots etc, I'm gonna be gone for almost a week after tomorrow so don't think you're being ignored. I'll get to them all when I get back (if there are indeed any to be dealt with).

This game is great but here comes: I have the 1.2 version and I've done everything right and spoiler (hide)gotten to the island (/hide)and now I'm stuck! Reading trough this thread I figured out that I should have the spoiler (hide) fishing pole and of course I have only the tin! I've given everything but lego to the fisherman.(/hide) Do I have to play the game all over? I didn't save at all.

Up to this point Cirque the Zale was one of the best games I've ever played, so funny!

I recently downloaded the game. I'm not done yet but so far this is definitely one of the better AGS games I've played. The game is extremely polished, and the humour is right on target. Great job; I'm sure I'll love it even more when I'm done.

You've probably thunked it out by now, but if not....

Isn't there someone ELSE who would be MORE afraid of wolves... I'm sure there's a fairy tale about one such girl...

I havnt finished the game yet, but I have noticed a few things.
*Like eric said the speed is a little slow. Maybe have an option to change it would be nice, and not too hard to implement.
*Its probably a bit late now, but although most of the art is of a very high standard, there are a few backgrounds that dont quite fall into the quality of the others.
*The lack of much different background music at times anoyed me. Like during the intro, I was expecting some carnival tune to come on, but there was not much sound at all. (ok, listening again, there is music during the game... either something broke, or my speakers were turned down...

)
*I found a bug, I'm sorry if its been mentioned already: If you walk into the Potion Building and before you get in the door, click somewhere else, Alexander walks to where you clicked, but still enters the room (I found this by seeing the cat as i clicked to enter the house and going 'Hey, thats where the cat is... and clicking again...)
*I don't know if this is to do with your game or AGS, but if I alt-esc out and go into windows, and come back, all speech etc only briefly flashes up on the screen. I found that saving the game and restoring it fixed the problem. (also, this doesnt happen all the time... weird)
*This has been mentioned, but when you use the dog on cat, the dog turns into the blue cup for a few frames..

Anyways... love the game, and I am still having fun playing it. Awesome work with the humour. Good luck with future games.

I've restarted the game after I've managed to get to the island without the pole and it was worth it. This game is so witty and the end - the end is one of the coolest. Great game!

auhsor · Thu 29/04/2004 08:50:26

Finihed it. Awesome game.

You need to give the troll to the mother, and then the deed.

OK, I'm back now and although I'm tired and bitter thanks to Sydney, I've had a look over the bug reports. I'll have a look at the game later on and see what I can do. I'm fairly sure I know now why the door to the cottage acts up but... like I said, I'll check.

Andail · Mon 03/05/2004 20:01:33

zchwing, pick of the month. Thank you.

Kinoko · Fri 07/05/2004 02:48:00

Once more, an new version is up -_- At least from the secondary url (http://www.anime.com.au/Katt/misc/cirque.zip) as I don't have access to the other ftp account just yet. Both links should point to the new version by tonight.

v1.3 - Hopefully, I've fixed the cottage door problem, the dog turning into a blue cup problem and the problem that allowed you to get to the island without getting the fishing rod. They all baffled me, there didn't seem to be any specific thing wrong that I could see, but I think I've managed to get around them anyway.

If there are any more problems, PLEASE let me know. ^_^ Argh, this is so frustrating. When I make my next game, I'll know better than to release the game without checking things thoroughly.

There were some bugs but your game was REALLY good;) Hope you make a new game SOON

Wormsie · Sat 08/05/2004 10:28:48

I don't know if this has been said before, but I'll post this anyway. I don't think I have to read seven pages just to find out if a bugfix has been made... So, if I try to give that fellow in the island the hat, the martini glass, the lego block, or whatever, the game will crash with a message that says that it can't find the appropriate item, or something like that.

Kinoko · Sun 09/05/2004 14:02:52

Once again I have to say ^_^;;; ...

Which version do you have? Check the readme file. v 1.3 is the latest and I don't -think- is has the island problem. It's hard for me to tell because these bugs just pop up and don't make a lot of sense to me most of the time. Also, most of the time they only seem to happen to one or two people and I can't make them happen myself.

Johnny Odd · Sun 09/05/2004 15:53:28

Now THIS is a briliant game. Well done Kinoko - a couple of things

Spoiler

I was just checking I could actualy hide text before I post any give aways
