Ok...I have a job, and can afford 4.99...but I'm just not sure I'll play this much...rogue touch is sitting unused. Lite?
Hey cool... how did you like it compared to the original classic? That game inspired a ton of geeks. iPad, can't really say at this point.
This finally made me sign up to TA just to say how hilarious this thread has been. I don't know if that means that my standards are slipping. Viva la update!
It's great. I definitely prefer the iPhone version though, more accessible. My niece and nephew love it The great thing about the original though is seeing the whole level at once. (if you've uncovered it e.g. no fog) That's all I'd hope to see from an iPad version, seeing the whole level at ones. There would be no point changing any of the assets IMO. I will say that I love the atmospheric music but even more love how the original sound effects are unchanged. It works really well I feel. Funny how long it takes the C64 to generate everything at startup. I guess a ~1mhz cpu will do that.
Welcome to the madness! I think we're all going crazy waiting for this update to go live... You need to use your mad pestering skillz to force Apple to approve the update ASAP! You would be everyone's hero.
I am staring since a few days at the update screen and nothing happens! Slowly I am getting tired... Hey, Jeff, say: wouldn't it be nice to license your C64 Sword of Fargoal to the guys with the C64-emulator-app? This would really help you to get your golden HUMVEE faster.
Paul, you have made me totally crazy. The first version of Fargoal for iPhone is a gateway drug. Hero (Level 60 again) is delaying going for the sword until the update arrives. Meandering around hacking on low dungeon levels. He and I will live or die, but I will _not_ start from the beginning until the update is here, no way. As soon as that happens, I'll go for it. Don't you feel guilty for what you've done to a doddering old retired professor with too much time on her hands?
No! I mean absolutely! If it's any consolation, I am just dying to see how you guys like the update. It's like a new game. So everyone, focus your mind-beams at Apple and compel them to approve the Sword of Fargoal update post-haste! EDIT: Some of you must have powerful mind-beams, because SoF just transitioned to "IN REVIEW!" Yays! Here's hoping for a quick approval. Need more mind-beams!
