Maybe last boss could be more challenging, but it is not big problem for me.

I agree there needs to be a greater sense of urgency at boss level. Have Miss May being lowered into hot oil, gators, snakes. Staked out underneath a pendulum. Fed into a saw blade. There must be hundreds of cliffhangers that could be used.

If an artist is found, don't overlook the retroguru mascot. He is cool in his own right. Some dancing on hot coals, lying on a bed of nails, charming a cobra would be fun.

Naturally phx already knows this. The debugger was the Solid Gold game too. I don't remember if the game uploaded to aminet had it. It had to be assembled with -DDEBUG to enable it. There was a bouncing color bar during the game. The only way I ever saw it was pressing HELP. Don't do this if you're playing for keeps because there is no return.

It looks amazing!!!

The floppy is NDOS, can someone prepare a WHD installer for it please?

[phx]

I already talked with StingRay many weeks ago, and he even has the game's source text. I also asked him not to publish the passwords and to wait until the final release was done.

The graphician is currently busy to rework everything. I'm sure there will be a WHDload version for the final release.

Nice one Frank

...not that the graphics are bad at all in the party version, but look forward to seeing what improvements you will implement

[Predseda]

It is a shame I can not have HDD install for party version as I wanted to bring to an upcoming Amiga party and I do not have FDD od Gotek in my Amiga But it is your game and I respect that of course.

I am also looking forward seeing how the graphics are improved (or not? ) by that other guy.

Anyway, amazing game, Frank.

All the menu, story, loading, etc. graphics are reworked now, and I had a chance to see them yesterday. It is a noticeable improvement, without changing the original style.

Now "only" the tiles and monster animations have to be reworked.

BTW, the final release will also include some bug fixes, of course. For example, a long-time test at the Maker-Faire in Salzburg last weekend showed that there is a memory leak.

Have there been changes to the overall colour palette of the game?

No, I don't think so.

Maybe someone will write a WHDLoad slave for the game.

[spudje]

No WHDLoad slave yet? I would love to add this to my XBench setup.
