ASA'S TELLAHVISION *SKYE REVIEWED!*

Posts

Uh. You told me something completely different over IRC. I already know about the head over the edge of the screen and no, there isn't any road on the bottom of the screenshot that doesn't transition. Those spots aren't road edges. Maybe turn up your screen brightness.
No, this is exactly what I told you over IRC. That there aren't enough transitions that make sense. I pointed them out to you. You should make grass AND road transition, because ultimately, you can walk on both. On the second screenshot, those two circles ARE road. Those two at LEAST should transition.

I won't argue with you though. If you feel your game is perfect, I commend you for standing by your work. That doesn't necessarily mean it's terribly playable.

It's easy to get free praise from your best friend! I gave you an honest look and genuine problems you could fix or at least look into. If that wasn't what you wanted, I'm sorry!
You said over IRC that there were edge road spots that didn't transition. I already told you that only road spots are supposed to transition.

Also, look closely. Those aren't "edge" road spots. They are dirt, but they aren't connected to the edge of the map.
This isn't an argument, man. You want to debate, there's the General Discussion forum for that! I told you what I saw. I gave you a screenshot. I can't do much more for you.

You want to avoid confusion in people exploring your map? Make all connecting pieces that are walkable into transitional ones. Those edges you allowed transitions on in another screen, so I had to assume they'd transition in that screen as well!

That's advice, nothing more. It's free, too! But please, don't argue. I am not going to, at least.

Those are f~~~in' DARK. Is that how it's supposed to be, Azn, Or is it just my screen or something?
It really is like that Chaos. He wanted to give the ambience and theme of "darkness" in the graveyard. What he didn't realize was that people might have problems navigating through such a dark map.
I have a really bright monitor and the screens look brighter in game since they are fullscreen and not contrasted against the light (almost white) forum background.
Chaos, why don't you download the game and give your two cents?

Mindflare, by Dragon Prod--- I mean AznChipmunk. I'd like to hear your comments on what you see. Azn here just thinks i'm insane, lol.

I've played Mindflare and I have no idea what the big deal is...just the kind of game that it is (very linear) made me not expecting more than one exit per map.

Ok, did you like the lock that inexplicably kills you if you don't input the ridiculous 50-combination code? The lack of cliffhanger plot? The abrupt end to the demo?

I'm interested!

Dragon Army Productions is a joke. (Read Ender's Game.)



Also, I already said the end cuts off very abruptly in the post that released it. And it was a RELEASE SOMETHING event, so it was just me releasing what I had on Release Day to have something. There's not supposed to be a proper ending, it's just a simple release for an event.

EDIT: Yeah, the game is very linear.
Well, I was giving you feedback based on what I had played, Azn!

I'm sure you'll give an improved game when and if you release a full version.
wow, i didn't realise i was next. Hope you enjoy the demo and classic sig by the way. ;)

Awesome book .

@Asa: Mindflare, you say? Alright, but don't expect any results until this afternoon or so.

You can thank Karsuman for the fact that I decided to play your game next.

There was another reason to do yours next, involving your art style, which you're for some odd reason NOT using in your game.

I like what I've played of it. I get the feeling there's no combat, but what puzzles there are take some figuring out.

Overall, good job, emo. ;)

the demo was created around march this year and i haven't bothered doing it for the full version either. I will be for Demon Destiny 2 though as my friend is going to help me do facesets, character sets etc.

And now I am completely over it, so... back to reviewing it is for me!
