How did you make the installer?

[damiandj]

I've use a special program

[siimvuss]

Its really nice... I like your game... But I have one question... Is it just for me or the save button doesnt work for everyone?

[damiandj]

No, it doesn't work. But I'll implement a checkpoint system soon.
The savegame option will come later...

I feel tempted to shout all manner of abuse at you for using an exe to hold the stuff; likewise a package size of 86mb is almost ludicrous.
the installer on the other hand actually looks REALLY professional. on that note.. can you include a smaller package in the future with the extra stuff for those who already have sandbox?

1. it's dark
2. water specularity is nearly blinding
3. can you please assign a model to the player for those that wish to play it in third person
4. there's a coin up in the later waterfall areas, I'm not sure how I'm meant to get that
5. I'm almost surprised you didn't try to use the built in RPG inventory and dialogue system (see spawn_talky for an example of talking)
6. you include your settings with it; this mean strange resolutions (which my screen can't even display), no shaders, extreme water subdivision, maximum shadowmap detail, etc, where the defaults, instead of the true defaults

to finish it off, it's a very nice little demo; keep it up!

[damiandj]

Thanks Hirato for your opinion:
I think that I can't include a smaller package for those who have sandbox, because if the package writes over this files it will make the complete program unplayable. For example, the menu files.... (maybe I find a solution)

1. I instead think that's ok
2. Ok, I'll see what I can do...
3. The first person view is a part of the game. I'm not so sure that I'll set the third person view. But I'll think about.
4. Of course, there is a way
5. I'd like to create an unique game with an unique inventory system with some unique scripts
6. Ok, I'll see what I can do...

thanks for your feedback, I'll try my best!

I enjoyed playing your level. The level was well thought out plus It kept you interested and the tension was good on having to make those jumps in the lava sections.

Playing in single player mode like you said is part of the game choices. Some games are FPS and others RPG

It's Just good to see a someone produce, build and make a playable level. Nice...

Only thing I see is that it is too dark in the first section. I had to turn up my gamma to get around in the first section without just turning and turning in circles.

[damiandj]

Thanks Radder for your feedback
I'm happy that you enjoyed my WIP game.
This weekend I'll release another minor version with some important changes and another dungeon part.

Ok, Radder you convince me, so I'll try fix the too dark problem
