    What's your problem? It's not like it cost you hundreds of pounds is it? So it's free for a day, that's up to Madgarden - he made it, he can charge what he likes for it. Imagine buying a new DVD for £10 and then throwing your toys outta the pram because the BBC show the film on TV 2 years later. Will you want your £10 back?

    The DS and idevice markets are not comparable in that way. If you want to discuss that, PM me.

    That aside, you are talking about a price drop. I am talking about a free giveaway.

    My problem is every time I post there's a new people arguing with me, and I'm not one to take abuse lying down.

    But I'm done anyway, if you guys still want to argue about this lets go start a new thread in the lounge or something, but I'm not going to continue polluting the Fargoal thread with irrelevant information when I've already got an answer from the dev.

    I guess you're a newcomer to the Appstore or you don't buy many games ey? I've been following AppStore since it was opened and there are heaps and heaps of price drops. Yes, some don't become free, but $6-9 drop means I lost even more money than you.

    Other notable games that become free for a day: Let's Golf, Labyrinth, Monster Kill, 1112, Hysteria, Low Grav Racer, Reign of Swords.

    ps: Creating new thread? for what? There were heaps of threads about this already in the past. We've now all moved on from crying over a price drop or a freeappaday promotion.

    He already said he was dropping it. Everyone else should do the same.

    So now that you've gone free temporarily, do you guys have any updates on the DLC?

    After the current small update, we'll be focusing our efforts on the next big update which should include some DLC if all goes well time-wise. But regardless, expect lots of new dungeony stuff to come, heh. :)

    I'm experiencing a small problem. Whenever I fall down a pit I do not get the Drift icon in the top-right of the screen. It was working fine before but having continued the same save it's just stopped appearing. I do still have plenty in my reserves. Any ideas?
     
  8. Dude, what the hell? Thigns go on sale all the time. On the App Store, at your local supermarket, electronics stores, and ... well, everywhere. And how many people bought the things that went on sale the day before they did? How many of the stores that put these things on sale gave customers fair warning? (Hint: Lots, and zero.)

    Jeez, dude. Get a grip. You paid $5 for it, and obviously it was worth it to you, so you got your money's worth. What's the problem? I bought it -- I didn't even have to, as I knew Paul would send me a code, but it was worth it to me and I wanted to support him in his efforts. So it's free today? Awesome! More power to him. (I think he's nuts, but if it works for him all the better.) No skin off my nose. I got far more than $5 worth of enjoyment out of it, and I continue to do so. It was $5 well spent, and I'd spend it again if I had to. I have no problem with Paul's decision and I can't for the life of me see why you do. Your argument makes no sense.

    Is a Drift spell already active? It lasts more than one pitfall, usually...

    Also, just realize that we are a 3 man team, so these decisions are made by Fargoal, LLC as a whole and not just me even though I'm the one who's always yapping in here. ;)

    No. I also discovered that Teleport was not showing during a fight either. Anyway, I came out of the app and resumed my save, all seems ok now.

    BTW, I just got the sword for the first time and desperately trying to make my way upwards! :D

    I've been hanging around from the very beginning, just haven't said much till Paul mentioned my lurking. Figured I may as well join in!

    Ah crap, I lost the sword and then fell down a pit. This brings me to a feature I really don't like.... I do not know where to look to reclaim the sword now. The floors are sooooo big that it would take such a long time to search for the warlord that stole it. It also means going back down another 10 floors to level 20 if that's where it is. I really think there should be a compass on the GUI somewhere that tells you what floor to search after it's been stolen. Maybe even have that as a spell or enchantment with a particular amulet for example....

    Do you have any telepathy spells? I *think* that helps locate the sword but I could be mistaken.

    If true, that's a really nifty use!

    Wow, Lady Madgarden spies on her hubby.
    Did he mention this telepathy spell while he was asleep?
    These secrets are normally well hidden inside his head. ;)

    Anyway, because I haven't said it: welcome to the TA forums! :)

    Yes, we will be adding a Sword Compas that points EXACTLY where the Sword is, so you can basically just waltz up and reclaim it... once Care Bears fly out of my butt. ;)

    Yeah, your magic sword glows when the Sword is near, Telepathy, etc. and even your plain old dude can sense the Sword when he's on the same map. So... go giddit!

    I just checked iTunes, and 26 (or is it 28? Such tiny text) idiots have rated this 1 star now. :mad:

    I left a 5 star review last night, and I hope EVERYONE who likes this game, especially us lucky freeloaders, does the same.

    Go now and give it 5 stars!!!
