Thanks mstacheef! I am concentrating on getting all the bugs out, then maybe I can think about expanding it. The wait time on updates is so long that I already have a number of bugs fixed that won't even be in the next update, because that was submitted a week ago.
I think I talked to everyone at Castle Pynchon, circled the parameter, poked around for hidden walls, attacked the statue, attacked guards, etc... but no further clues other than Spoiler dwarfen boots are needed . I've explored most of the map and don't see any dwarf towns, went around tipping at whatever pubs I came across but they seem elusive.
@undeadcow I am sorry you have spent so much time looking for that. I wonder if there is a bug preventing you from finding the clue. I am going to PM you the answer.
4.5/5 TouchArcade review! I guess getting featured in the "Coming Tonight" post last week wasn't the best thing to happen to Lowlander...yet. Congrats!!!
Yeah - thanks! I was surprised to see that review pop up. So happy they like it. Man I just tweeted about the game and included @RichardGarriott because I see him retweet stuff all the time. And he instantly retweeted! BUT I had the freaking LINK wrong, and I had to delete the tweet I sent a second one but he didn't retweet that one. I swear to god it seems like every time I send a tweet there is something wrong with it. argh
Epic review, well deserved! Got it, no bug - I just overlooked that one person (d'oh). It was fun exploring around anyway.
Don't beat yourself up buddy! Maybe he's just away from his phone/laptop/PC/whatever. If he doesn't retweet, just send him a tweet letting him know you messed up the link in the last one and have fixed it.
Trying to get into Antipathy/Animosity but can't Spoiler get over the water to it - boat can't go under bridge . Bug? or am I missing something?
Oops replied to this but saw undeadcow already had. Several people have gotten stuck on this. I wonder if the "For Whom The Bell Tolls" clue on the sign is too vague... Dunsany I am curious how did you even know where that dungeon is? Can you see it? Also for anyone there is a bug/typo the king refers to dungeon Antipathy as Animosiity, but they are one and the same. There was a rebranding of that dungeon. It will be fixed in the next update.
I thought I understood the clue so I looked for Spoiler no man is an island.. aka an island ... So, there at Spoiler the edge of the lake, you can see the entrance .
Picked this up a few days ago and very glad I did. An excellent homage so far. About the start, perhaps reducing food consumption indoors would help. But I found the town and was (barely) able to survive even after "wasting" time exploring the castle chatting with people.
Yeah -- the food should elapse more slowly in the towns. I'll put that in the next update. There's an update hopefully releasing this weekend. Among other things it ups the initial amount of food you get, so that should help a little bit.
The mini-map doesn't stay centered, it's minor but sometimes harder to tell where you're headed. Need to recall where Swansboro is after finally finding Crosby again. I think I'm going to make myself a map. The "For Whom the Bell Tolls" sign indicates "The Dungeon Abhorrence is nearby..." should it actually read Antipathy (aka Animosity) or does it relate to a different dungeon, Abhorrence? Wait, don't tell me!
As a ultima 1,2,3,4,5 mega fan this is like a dream come true. This game has the "soul" of those games. Outstanding! Will be waiting for the sequel. However, I need a touch of help.... 1). I have the fire armour. 2). I have the boots for hill climbing. 3). I have one infer metal. 4). I am level 22 Am I 75 percent complete? How do I go thru mountains? Where are the 3 other dungeons? How do I get past the force field in the fire town?
Your next game has to be a tribute to ultima3, then ultima4. We are talking a trilogy here of sorts. You build it they will come......this will catch on. Need music though. Ultima 3 music was classic....I have the ultima 3 tracks repeating while playing lowlander! Oh and I am at the 10 hour mark for game time. Pound the dungeon close to the first town rep early in the beginning (30 plus times). To get right to the exploration stage. Per Ultima pounding level upping!
One last thing. I remember in Ultima 3 I would always quit as fast as I could when my boat hit a whirlpool and the screen would go dark and the 5in floppy drive started whirling like the death sentence..... If I only had known this was a good thing......I was about 6 years old though.....
@Gord ha ha I can't say that's how the game was meant to be played (30 times in the first dungeon!?) but whatever floats your boat! Sounds like you still have a few things to discover. Two of the three dungeons left shouldn't be too hard to find. You'll find hints about the fourth one here in these forums.
