I'm entering this one.  Just started a story :-)

I'm pretty sure you can kind of see something under the water...

And anyway, you can see the mud where they've worn away the grass where they run from... why would they all do it from EXACTLY the same place and run in exactly the same direction each time unless they were running on some kind of structure.

I reckon I'm about halfway through, and will play the rest tonight, but just wanted to say, definitely worth the wait and the wonga so far.  Theres some neat puzzles, the dialogue is really funny, and the robots are both cute and awesome.  Pats on the back to Dave, Ivy and everone involved.

@CW, while I'm sure Dave appreciates the feedback, I don't think he wants a comprehensive list of minor mistakes clogging up the first page of his 'Completed Game' thread.  If it was me I'd rather you PM'd me instead of putting off potential customers.

They are incredibly experienced and wise men.

And they're not short of a bob or two either.

Tosh.  Where have you been, dude?

Five Gold Runs?  Legend!

I really liked this game.  As a Mags entry it surpasses anyone's realistic expectations.  I did think it was a tad easy though.  The puzzles were imaginative and fitting, but not very challenging.  The artwork was gorgeous, and I loved the way the whole thing was essentially one big scrolling room. And the particle effects were awesome.  Very impressive indeed.

I thought the writing wasn't over the top at all.  Spot on in my books.  For the first few screens I thought that the whole thing was an allegory for letting someone go without telling them you love them, and that the demon guy was an embodiement of Amber's frustration and anguish at not having said something when she had the chance (it made me persoanally resolve to say something to the girl I have a soft spot for - I've left it far too long ) But it soon became apparent that Fio was dead, which is worse, haha.  Unfortunately I did need the whole 'five stages of grief' thing to be spelled out to me... I guess I'm not clever enough to have worked it out myself.

The voice work was okay, and very welcome, but with some of it I couldn't help being grateful for the subtitles because the dialogue wasn't always very clear... the gargoyle's in particular spoke very quickly.

But overall I was impressed by this short game that really shows the power of AGS.  And the power of collaboration.  More people should swallow their pride and partner up.  Team games are nearly always of better quality than solo efforts.

Hmm, I somehow missed out on this last time.
Count me in.

Nice EastEnders reference there, Snake. :-)

I once made a honey & Marmite sarnie when I was feeling experimental.  While I still ended up chucking half of it in the bin, I must say it wasn't THAT bad... I did eat all of the other half after all.

I'm not really a fan of the faster paced platformers.  I suppose I prefer games like Rick Dangerous, where each screen presents a puzzle to solve.  You have enemies and guns and bombs and lives, giving it that arcadey feel (and points too), but you're not really in any hurry.  Games like this are good because you can stand there and think about how to time your movements carefully so as to not get killed  by the arrows shooting at you from the wall and things like that.

If you chucked in some minor inventory action like Fantasy World Dizzy, you'd have a game I would want to play.

Also Preordered.  Beautifully timed release, just before essay and exam period

Thats one hell of a fortnight...

You should go down the horror route and have Les Vampres, Les Gheausts Les Wolvres de Were et Les Zombreaux.  (Apologies to any French people).

I think the characters from A Second Face were all brilliant pieces of art.

Hoi?

Apparently you can download the complete game from that page aswell.

Why not take a screencap of the piecharts and ost them here?

I will try to get my son used to all the dark creepy stuff as soon as possible so we can make horror games together!

You're gonna be a cool dad :-)
