Apathy of Angels - Updated 7/22/12 - Full mini update on pg1

[coasterkrazy]

Thanks for your response! And seven chapters!?!?!? YES!!!

PLEASE never give up on this! I literally played through all of chapter 1 tonight with my friend (or rather he played through I guided/helped), and got him interested in the game. I sent him his save file so he could continue it after he left.

Hmm... as for how long it took, I guess I'll try to add up how long we spent tonight and how long I played for chapter 2 (though I took extra time in chapter 2 to do some leveling up and to get money for the best weapons available). I'm just gonna guess it was around... 5 hours? I would say give or take an hour from that guess, but that seems about right. I feel like I may have taken closer to 6, but that's with the extra time I spent.

[drenrin2120]

Haha, that's great to hear. Six hours is about how long it took me to beat it, so yeah, you played through it real well I'm guessing! Now, taking the ending into account, does it bother you as much knowing there's still five more chapters? Just wondering how that looks from the player's standpoint.

[Fisherson]

Hey,dren,is there lot of flashing in it?If so i'll have to edit.

[drenrin2120]

Um... the intro has some lightning effects and one big flash. Hm... I think other than that, you should be fine. There's no real crazy, whole screen flash after flash scenes, so I think you should be all set.

[Fisherson]

Thanks i'm downloading it now.I play slow though so expect a review in week.

[drenrin2120]

Don't worry, just have fun with it.

Sorry to say, even with the 5 chapters, I don't feel any differently. I just think the plot could use more of a segue [spoiler]into the shift in antagonists[/spoiler]. I know you probably spent a lot of time scripting that part, and I'm sure the game will be great anyway even if you don't change it, so I wouldn't say it's absolutely crucial. It's just my opinion. Maybe you should get more opinions? I'll ask my friend what he thinks when he's done.

KICK

Yeah, so I'm still working on this, of course. I just took a summer break I guess. Only got two things for today. One is a question, be honest, would you hate me if I used this song in my game for a mini game... This one here

And the second is this screen.


Fully functional menu that allows you to view specific stats and change your party at any time. (of course, somtimes this menu will be disable for obvious reasons which is why there is another menu for the sole purpose of viewing Class Statistics).

I have begun working on Chapter III. That is all.

I'm playing music and can't be bothered to click the link, but I'm pretty sure I won't wate you no matter what it is :p

As for the end of the 'summer break': Yay!

Maybe if you remix it a little?

edit: maybe not....

[drenrin2120]

Well, it's a mini game, mini games aren't usually serious.

So here, just a taste of what I'm working on.

[Meiscool-2]

Looks fun. What do you do in it?

[Uberpwn_w00t]

<smartass> Well, it looks to me like you ride a mine cart. </smartass>

Like the thing in Mario 64 only it was Ice?  Ok.  Maybe I think that the music works.

[Fisherson]

His eyes say it all lol. Seriously, though. Make the bottom darkness or bottomless pitt a little brighter so that it
dosn't meld with the cieling.
