Yes! I (we) did it!

7 years have passed since the original, and now it's here, as it was meant and rightfully deserves to be.


I'm so glad that I managed to finish the game this year after all! Due to the scope and overall meat of the game (30-50+ hours of content), I'm a little surprised that I managed to have this done in less than a year. The thing is though; I could've never done this without the wonderful help that I've received. Here we go:

Adena:
My good and inspiring Indonesian friend, what would I've done without you? If it weren't for your technical help, this game would suffer from the weird graphical glitch with the Caterpillar script that was evidenced in CO3. Your early testing reports were of great help as well. Thank you for everything and especially for being such a good and supporting friend. Our talks motivated me a lot to buckle and keep working hard on the game. I hope everything goes well for you in life and I can't wait to play your upcoming games!

amerk:
It's been very nice to have an old fan of the originals still sticking around. Your critique on the early parts of the demo has been very helpful. Overall, your support and kind comments have meant a lot to me. I hope you, as an old fan, will be able to enjoy revisiting the Castle again after all these years. Thank you.

boos405:
Your comeback truly awakened something in me. Something that I thought was long lost, together with the passing of the YT community. There's no doubt that your return motivated me. Thanks for your kind and supportive comments! I hope you'll find the game to play the game sometime. Take care and I hope your gets better!

captainregal:
Your review gave me a lot of things to think about. I've gone back to it everyone now and then, making sure that I put the feedback I agree on in practice to the game. Thanks for taking your time to review and I hope to hear what you think about the game as a whole. An updated review for it would be really interesting.

Dalph:
Thank you so much for kind comments and support. It really means a lot to me. As you are another fan of the originals, I can't wait to hear your thoughts on the remake. I sure hope it will live up to your expectations, and perhaps even beyond!

Frogge:
I'm very proud to have you on-board as the game's official Pun Writer. Your puns have brought me (and others) many good laughs. Your constant support has also motivated a great deal. Uploading screenshots felt more meaningful, since I always knew that they would be followed by some form of pun (or in some cases useful critique). You are without a doubt the kindest frog that I've ever met. Hopefully, we'll be able to work on some games together in the future. Duo think that we'll make a good team? Ha! Caught you off guard with that one, didn't I?

GreatRedSpirit:
This awesome scripting wizard has helped me out numerous time. If it weren't for your help, the Auto-Life state would've been a buggy mess. I'm
also pretty sure that you helped me out with adjusting the game's max level
cap. The help I've received from you have done wonders to the game on the technical side. I'm still not sure how I'll ever repay you, but I hope I get
the chance to do so sometime in the future. Thank you so, so much.

One of my biggest idols and not just in RM, but life in general. Without you, this remake wouldn't even exist! I'm glad to see you happy with this remake and I can't wait to hear the original Lord of the Castle's thoughts on the game.I owe a lot to you, buddy! Thanks for everything.

A big THANK YOU, my fellow Swedish buddy. Your overall interest and observant beta-testing has been crucial to the game's completion. You've truly done an amazing job and I hope that you'll continue to enjoy my future games. Cheers!

Your critique (even from CO3) has been very helpful. I tried to take as much from it as possible and use it to make this game even more polished. It's all the little things that count, right? I hope you'll have some time to replay this game sometime. I'd love to hear your wise thoughts on the finished product. Thank you very much for sharing your valuable thoughts on my games.

Linkis:
Thank you for your continuing support. I'm really happy to see familiar faces sticking around. :) Let's hope that the game won't be too hard, eh? Let me know if you'd ever get stuck or need help with anything in particular.

Like ksjp17, your critique and inputs has helped me a lot to shape this game into something even shinier and more enjoyable. Feedback is so crucial, since you're always very biased with your games as a developer. I'm looking forward to hear your thoughts on the finished game and I really hope that you'll see it as a step up from CO3. Thanks for your feedback and overall support. I'm looking forward to play some of your games. Hopefully, I'll be able to return the favor.

Riff:
Thank you for beta testing the game and finding those small errors in the dialogue. Everything counts! :)

the13thsecret:
Working with you have been a blast! Overall, I think we did a good job at working together. We faced many trials together, which we thankfully managed to power through. If all goes well for us in the future, I wouldn't mind working with you again. Cheers and good job! The remake wouldn't have been as good if wasn't for your awesome talents! Cheers, buddy!

WalkerMage102:
Thank you for bearing with me during beta testing. I know a lot of patches were made, but I think they'll all be worth it in the end. Also, thank you for your kind comments and support!

Zachfoss:
My fellow Canadian Mango, how can I ever forget about you? Even though we may not talk as much as we used to do nowadays, I'm still thankful for the talks we've had every now and then. Thank for your love and support, bro. I haven't forgotten about OR by the way. ;) Good luck with it!

Zephire98:
Your support truly motivated me during the game's development. I hope that you'll enjoy this game, as I know I'll enjoy DoR and CD. Just remember to give me a call when you need a tester/or some help with your game(s). Keep at it, you'll have your games finished soon enough!

Zodiac12:
Thanks for your feedback on the demo! I hope you will find attacking more useful now than it was before. I'm also glad to see another fan of the original. Cheers and let me know what you think of remake!


I'd like to thank everyone else that have helped/supported me. If you feel left out, then don't hesitate to let me know! For now, it's time for me to take a little break and refuel my batteries.
I want to wish everyone here a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! This game is my Christmas gift to you and I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I had making it!

I'm glad I could be of service, mate! I hope to do a YouTube Let's Play of it in the near future.

I'm hoping to finish development on Dusk of Renica soon, so it might come out before or on Christmas. Man, development was really pushed by school... :/

NOTE: You accidentally misspelled my name by mistake. :P
An LP would be a blast! Watching someone play your game is probably one of the most enjoyable rewards as a game developer. ^^

Before Christmas, huh? That's less than 2 days from now. :O Either way, good luck!

Oh, silly me. Fixed it right away. ;)

It really is, isn't it? :P
You got that right, son. :) Ah, I remember watching my Canadian buddy play through my last game's beta. Man, good times. Watching other people get their asses handed in your own game is the best feeling ever.

That's when you know it works haha
When people do too good or don't feel the heat you're kinda happy they are getting it but at the same time you wanna see someone die!

It's great when they finish the game too!
Hehe. I want to see the player make good decisions and get rewarded for it. If players play badly, I'll just sit back and wait for the hell to break lose; or get surprised at how they somehow manage to turn the tables around.

Oh yeah. Since both of my games are quite lengthy, I know that those who finish the game have at least enjoyed enough to do so. :)

I can not find the golden fairy . You can help me?
Golden Fairy? If you are talking about the Golden Butterfly, then just head move down a screen from the Bandit Stronghold, head right and then go up to the path that's more to the right of that screen.

I'm sorry for the late response. I missed this somehow. :/
