The Mansion Family: Mind Mines - aquaMat - 02-27-2007
Dear friemds,
I want to inform you that I finished the first installment of THE MANSION FAMILY, subtitled Mind Mines.
I did that while taking a break during the testing of the Discotheque, and as it is a good deal smaller than the Discotheque, I've agreed with Freddy to release it first.
He is currently preparing it for release, but please keep in mind that he has 5 other finished mansions to prepare also, so please be patient.
But, to water your appetite, here's the story and a screenshot.
The Mansion Family: Mind Mines Story:
Jack is leaving his modest house in the city to find luck in the hills.
He has heard about a charismatic guy who invites people to come live with him and his
familyin an underground labyrinth in the hills: the Mind Mines.
But Jack has also heard some
less friendlystories about the man and the place:
some people in the city claim the place is long deserted, the family gone. A few voices even hint at darker things.....of creatures involved, of black magic and the family being not so nice at all...
Mind Mines is about 55 rooms or so, and does feature only very few real innovations, like Jack has to read a magic spell, and will then be able to walk several feet above the ground....but I like it very much and hope you will too.
Below you see a screenshot of part of the city.

Re: The Mansion Family: Mind Mines - Freddy - 02-28-2007
Well. I had the honour to enter the Mind Mines yet. Shouldn't want that this city has my name. It is pure horror over there. :-X
Re: The Mansion Family: Mind Mines - Freddy - 03-09-2007
I have the honour to announce the release of Mind Mines, the first part of The Mansion Family. This mansion is now downloadable from the three lists.
aquaMat will surely tell you more. E.g. how many episodes there will be ...

This is an amazing mansion!Could be my new favorite!! ;D How did you do the walking 3 feet in the air? I must know!!! It was AMAZING! If you haven't tried this mansion yet, I guarentee you it is superb. The only problem is it is a LOT like the underworld of the church...

I'm guessing that it's a totally transparent custom block. I never tried that myself, but it seems like it would be easy enough. Just make the whole PICT resource cyan.
Re: The Mansion Family: Mind Mines - aquaMat - 03-10-2007
Thanks for the compliments, Sam.
I'm gald you like it.
As for the magic spell:
What Psychotronic said is NOT the solution, although it maybe could have been made that way.
But: I guarantuee you: In The Mind Mines there is NOT one bit of custom graphics involved !!
That should be enough for a hint right now....let's see if you find out !

Is there more than layer 4 there? It's a great trick! It's not carpet is it? the purple one used as layer 4? :-?
Re: The Mansion Family: Mind Mines - aquaMat - 03-10-2007
