Pocket Quest! Review

author=OldPat
Although I don't think some kind of coop\multiplayer could find its way in a game like this.

Probably not something like co-op mode, per say, but a 2 player versus mode, as a genuine extra, could have possibly worked. I could see something along the lines of having two different Nono’s, one playing as the regular Nono and the other one could play as an alternate version of her, and the object of the game is to either acquire the most amount of coins or defeat the boss at the end of the board within a certain time limit or a particular amount of said turns, or just whoever can do either of the two. You’ll be able to set the rules before the match begins, and neither player can have access to Uzu at all. You could also have Lily and her sisters show up on occasion to either screw with both players or just one single player in general. You could also introduce new ways to f**k both players over at once, like exchanging and swapping money and / or gear, or even have both players swap positions on the board and junk. Either way, I think it could have possibly worked, but the game’s already completed already and it’s just fine the way it is, so it’s just something extra to consider for next time if ever a Pocket Quest 2 ever happens to become a reality one day - or whatever other game Testament decides to do.

And, yeah, not having a multiplayer mode didn’t overall affect the score too much. Like you said, it’s just something that would have been a neat addition but really not so much of a big deal in the end.

For the music... I don't know, I'm not particularly fond on mp3 soundtrack, even today. I love midis and to convey a more 16 bit atmosphere I thinks they're the best.

Hey, to each his or her own, man. I used to use MIDI’s too back in the good ol’ days - just like you - and I remember there was once a time that I loved listening to them and even cranked up the loud speakers when nobody was home on occasion. But I started falling in love with using and listening to MP3’s around 2006 or so - and I’ve never looked back. It really doesn’t matter what type of format you decide to use as long you think it works the best and like it, so whatevers.

I too would have prefer an original soundtrack, but... not so many composer around here ^^. I got an offer many times ago, but not for free and I cannot afford to pay when even I don't earn a cent.

Yeah, I remember getting somebody years ago that wanted to do my soundtrack for Monopoly / Monopolo but I was in the same boat as you back then and had no money to offer the guy and I much preferred the music that I was using at the time. There are a few composers around here that are willing to do the work, but there doesn’t seem to be a lot of them around RMN anymore compared to previous years. *sigh* Oh well.

By the way... to return to the INN in a sec, you can use an Escape Rope everywhere in the board ^^.

Wait – shit - you mean to tell me that you can use an escape rope to go back to the INN this whole time? I thought that you could only use it to escape from battles and that’s it. Ah, geez.

- And you’re welcome about the review there, bud. And thanks as well, OldPat. I had a lot of fun with this one. :)

BTW, Testament – what are you planning on doing and making in the possible future? Is a Pocket Quest! sequel, or side-game, or whatever in the possible cards next? Or are you planning on making something completely different, or are you just gonna take a break for a while and think about it for a bit?

Pocket Quest!

All right, review’s finally done and uploaded to the site. It’s currently still going through the pending process, but it should be up pretty soon. Took me around two whole days and six whole hours to get it done. I think I covered everything that I wanted to.

Anyways, I hope you enjoy it. :)

So, the year begins with the death of Mary Tyler Moore and continues with the death of John Hurt. RIP both of you.

Oh yeah, I didn’t mean it by anything like that; everybody is of equal value, regardless of who they are.

RMN Events That You Enjoyed The Most, Wish You Entered, And Ones That You Could Have Done Better In

Also, the RMNplays event was bullshit lol. It was generous, but the achievment count has never been the same haha. I am number one since (I could have gotten that otherwise too! : D who knows)

Yeah, same with the Reviewrim event where you could get multiple Dovahkin achievements for reviewing more than five games and I remember that Deckiller got like 20 of them, lol.

kentona, we need to have another event where we can earn up to 50 achievements for participating in it. We can call it, “The 50 Comments For 50 Achievements Event,” or something. Watch everybody and their dog join that.

So, the year begins with the death of Mary Tyler Moore and continues with the death of John Hurt. RIP both of you.

i can't wait for 2018

Why? Is that the year that Donald Trump finally bites the dust?

I don’t know that much about John Hurt, but it still sucks to know that Mary Tyler Moore is gone. Hopefully we won’t lose any more people of value for at least a while now. I mean, come on Jesus, at least give us a few months, or something.

For every week of real life stuff, I need a week where I get to work on what I want

What are you talkin’ about there, bud? You can have all the time off that you want! All you gotta do is either just win the lottery or just quit your job! It’s that easy.

Or you could always just do what pianotm said and just get your kid to finish your unfinished work.

Hey, he’s gotta earn his keep some way or another.

Enelysion Redux

No, the audios files are indeed all there, but you first need to unzip the folder, install the game, and then just move the Audio folder into the Enelysion Redux folder after it’s installed and you should be good to go. I don’t know why Luchino did it this way - but whatevers.

A Most Inconvenient Evening

(.. you actually thought I'd be burning and crushing things all day long loitering around here?! I only do that on new year's eve!)

You mean our new year’s or Chinese new year? If it’s the latter, I don’t see no giant dragon anywhere destroying homes and burning down trees, since today’s Chinese new year. So where you be at, then?

author=Kylaila
Also, amusingly, there is a dragon dating sim coming out in a few days : D

Oh, gwd, no.

author=NeverSilent
Dragons, on the other hand, are horribly underappreciated. But really, they are the true heroes.

You know what, you’re probably right. They probably were all just really wise and intelligent creatures that just wanted to be left alone and humans killed them all off for their own selfish needs. (A**hole humans!)

A Most Inconvenient Evening

But a dragon’s supposed to burn things and crush and eat livestock, not help people with their problems. That’s what the king is for.

A Most Inconvenient Evening

…What the hell is this!?!?!? You mean to tell me that I get to play as a giant dragon walking around town and solving mysteries? Holy shit, man – are you guys high?

I might have to check this one out.
