Glad to here the great news about it coming soon! I hope I get to help with the beta testing it looks great!
So, when is the beta testing starting? I would like an ETA on this, I'm interested. Dammit, so many interesting looking games and I can't play them
Hello all. I first want to say sorry that things are taking so long. We have been improving various aspects of the game that we just weren't 100% happy with. That being said the only task left before our phase 1 beta can start is putting the quests into world 1. The beta will be in 3 phases. Phase 1 is just world 1 and has some new replacement art we contracted for missing(using older art still), phase 2 will be 2/3 of the game and phase 3 will be the same as phase 2 with the belief that if nothing turns up broken the game is ready to release. The guy doing the quests hopes to be done soon and if all goes well we could prob post beta signup this weekend. Finally just something to help people understand why the game is taking so long. # of monsters:200+ (aprox 4 unique abilities per monster with some exceptions) # of code source files:~700 # of data files (dungeon configuration, monsters,abilities,worlds etc) 62 # of image files ~3500 (this number is bloated because a spell animation may have 15 frames) # of audio files ~90 Total app size ~160 megs As you can see this game is freaking huge and on any non mobile platform would prob cost 20$ Lucky for you its just gonna be a few dollars! Go iPhone!!
Thanks for your response I hope i will be able to take part in this beta Is there any way to report bugs or improvements besides this forum ? Maybe another email adress?
Beta will have its own communication for bug reports, not this thread. Lars from ZigZa is handling beta signup.
to answer some of your questions. 1. beta has not started, we have not picked the testers yet. 2. game will not require internet connection (other than to download the app...) 3. i will make a private group for beta.
Just to clarify, when he said instructions on first page he meant to say... THE BETA SIGNUP HAS BEGUN!!!!! SEE FIRST PAGE FOR INSTRUCTIONS!!!! WAHOOOO I put the final content in last night and so we just need to do a final bug sweep this weekend but signup stars now.
No if you just sent it when you asked him earlier your fine, i was just making it clear for everybody else that the beat signup has started.
Here's what the dungeons look like. We made a lot of improvements based on your feedback. Is it looking better?
