I played it a little bit and it looks nice!
Though, I think the font is a bit hard to read sometimes....
and I stuck at the moment... :P.

Looks like It is gonna be hard to win the March MAGS (for me) :P.

[Edit:
I see you named the main character "Peder". :P
I diddent know I was an angel :o :-\

I'm really really stuck on the pedestal puzzle! I've been trying for about an hour. Is there an easier way to do it? I'm going nuts!  :P

There is no easier way, sorry.
Perhaps I will write the solution down when I have time. BTW there is an other puzzle I think is more difficult.  ;)

QuoteI see you named the main character "Peder".
It's nice of me, isn't it? And you sure are an angel, everyone is. Didn't you know?

QuoteThough, I think the font is a bit hard to read sometimes....
Is it hard to read or too hard to read? In other words: Should I change it if a make an other version sometimes (what I didn't plan at the moment)?

hehe :P. If you named it Peder cause my name is Peder, that is nice of you yeah,
even though its fun to see my name in a game anyway, even if you diddent use the name Peder cause you saw me having the name..
Not sure if people name their children for Peder in germany?

I found it difficult to read almost everything. though, I dont think it is a NEED to change it, I just need to get used to it I think :).

Hi,

I did solved pedestal puzzle!

Now I am at the piano puzzle.

There is bug:

The restore is not working although I did save my game!!

Post by: MissyChelle on Fri 24/03/2006 19:24:16
Splat, are there any hints you could give me on the pedestal puzzle? ???
Title: Re: Death of an Angel (March 2006 MAGS)
Post by: nihilyst on Fri 24/03/2006 19:39:07
It looks nice so far, but you should really change the font. It's very hard to read, and the game experience would be much better, if reading the font wasn't so exhausting.

cheers

I just realized that I forgot one line of code. But you can still restore your game, just not from the titel screen. Just start a new game, go to the options GUI (click on the wings of the angel) and restore your game.

I will upload a new version when I have more time, and as this is not a serious bug, I will wait.

Quoteare there any hints you could give me on the pedestal puzzle?

Solution (http://people.freenet.de/Sinitrena/Engel/solution.doc)
I'm not sure whether this is the easiest way to solve this puzzle, but it works (as long as I didn't type something wrong)

Btw, I won't change the font. I don't think its really necessary.

Nice game!
I finished it. Good story. The puzzles were right and the game a bit short, but I enjoyed it. The font fits the rest well, so I suggest you keep it.
Keep up the good working :-)

no problem with the mirror.
Wierd though, I gonna enter the MAGS and I help people getting your game :o.
BUT, I see no reason not to be kind to people in this way. :).
The best game wins, and I just happy I managed to make a game with all original gfx, sfx and I started all from scratch for the first time in AGS.

hehe, I REALLY wasent joking, and I feel really stupid right now.
umm, err. I mean, I was jokingÃ,  :-\

If you want me to win vote for me. But you should play the other entrys (when they are done) first.

Peder, I'm waiting for your game.

Downloaded started play... THE TEXT SUCKS!Ã,  :'(

Other than that will let you know...

After about 10 mins of play I really got annoyed with the GUI and the Text. (Straining my eyes... to read every sentence was not kewl.)

//ok tried something different as Missychelle said she ha dno issue with text. Run the game in 640X480 mode then you can read.. It helps alot trust me.

The game was designed for 320x200?
