Good one, Grund.

I really don't know why it happens, and Im afraid that if I dont know the reason, I cannot fix it... sorry.

Indeed, Kyrandia 1 is absolutely gorgeous - I was totally stunned when I first saw it.
Some other games with great graphics are
Runaway
The Dig
Gabriel Knight 1
The black mirror
Quest for Glory IV

I guess I have that on some cd, but I dont suppose it's worth 'playing'.

Well in my opinion action sequences are OK, just as long as the player has to actually do something and think quick(not as in BS3, when you just had to press the button quickly) and he either gets back to the last safe place after he dies or there is a clear indication that this place is perfect to make a savegame.

I personally think that Colonel's Bequest paintovers are OK and suit well this game, and if you can keep up the EGA-ish sierry quality of the character animations it will be quite pleasing visually.

Why that's so great, Aussie! Oh come ON, start working on this project again - it has indeed great potential.

Why yes, that's what I do, but it was hosted only on JA back in those days...

Those are the reasons for which JA+ is NOT so bad imo...

The two reasons why JA+ is not so bad:
1. The Gabriel Knight 3 review by Ray Ivey
2. The Inventory

Well, imo.

Alkis, I am not criticising your game, for I have not played it. I just don't like that you complain (or 'show your disappointment') for it not being nominated. Hey, Im sure it'll get a heap of JA+ awards!
Anyway, it's really not about the awards themselves, its about the people enjoying your game. As long as there are such, you shouldn't worry about scores, awards and so on.

Hahahahahahahah

I was sure I'd find something like that on JA+ forums, but I never tried. Thanks Lucasfan, and keep them coming!

Oh and alkis,

Here's a really negative one from the Czech Republic, it's a good thing I don't understand what it says as it got a 55%.

this quite shows your attitude. The score doesn't matter, the thing that matters is WHY is it given. Or else there'd be no review - just a list of titles and scores. And just out of curiosity, do you know the one who reviewed other worlds in JA personally?


Edit: Hey Alkis, with this you can vote numerous times for your game! http://www.space.net.au/~thomas/quickbrowse.html

Errrrr.... An artistic touch.
¬_¬

The number of games which demos are released in the same year as the full game is dangerously low.

Well alkis, after a quick check, of 96 posts on this forum, more than 90 are related to "Other worlds". I think it's pretty much the same on other adventure forums. You see, people like Mills for example do pimp their game often, but this is not the ONLY thing they do, and this is why I am getting more or less annoyed. And hats off to SSH, who didn't complain there was a best demo category(not irony), although "Awakening of the sphinx" more than deserved the award in my humble opinion. And the fact that JA+ said good stuff about it means nothing than one person(concidence, or not, of your country) liked your game.
To tell you the truth, I haven't even played your game, for no other reason than the excessive, in my opinion, promoting.
A good way to promote your game is to put a small banner with a link in your signature, like many people do. But that'd mean posting for something else than your game, which seems pretty uncommon for you.

Give it a thought.

* Increased max overlays from 10 to 20.

Cheers.

@Alkis:
Well dude I felt pretty disappointed last year with WWTLF too. Now I think about it, I see that it should have been much better to get nominated in more categories. IMHO, your problem is pimping - you use every opportunity to talk about your game. I know, I was the same. I've got better I hope though...

@Pumaman:
Yes, in my opinion that would be best. What I did was to select which of the 9-10 games I played and liked deserved the nomination. Not too much time, I guess :/

Heh everglaze, sorry, but I already have a couple of projects running...

One more vote for Greece.

Well if you saw the outro and not the 'Dear player' message you beat it. The whole intention was to have a freedom of action and all that real time. As I said, I made it to get used to the new scripting language, it's nothing special or something.
