Beta 4: General Discussion

[VernJensen]

Post any comments / bug reports that are not specific to some mansion (i.e. reproducible in the level builder using any mansion) here. Also post comments about the rest of the game. (So for instance, if you try to post a high score online, and it doesn't seem to work right, post that here!)

When you start the Beta 4 you get a screen that says (among other things) Midnight Mansion costs $25.

When you quit you get a screen that says Register today to get access to the whole game with a button Click Here To Register Now For Only $20.

I think you might need to change one of these!

Would it be possible to show the keys Jack is carrying on the map screen? At the moment they are only shown on the main game screen and it would help to plan your strategy while looking at the map if you could see what keys you had.

At one point while testing Mount Peril Easy this morning I had seven keys and there was no way I could remember exactly what they were while I was looking at the map.

Yes, I am waiting for an updated button graphic that says $25 when you quit.

Paused Game Screen

Could the 4 buttons for Resume, Suspend, Abort and Quit be a different color? It's a psychological thing, I guess. We're so used to gray buttons meaning that function is not available.

And the 'open mansion' could be renamed 'open custom mansion' or something? I find 'open game' vs. 'open mansion' sort of confusing (OK, I confess, I still open the wrong one every now and then :).

[Semi-Native]

I like that suggestion too, Toybox.

[VernJensen]

Good ideas, will see what my artist can do. (Both the gray paused dialog buttons, and the Open Custom Mansion button. I guess Open Game should also become Open Saved Game for further clarity.)

Don't forget, I'll be gone tomorrow night (July 1st) until July 15th. Still continue posting bug reports and testing the game, but just realize I can't read/reply until I get back! (and recover from the jet lag. ;-)

Have a good trip, Vern. Come back rested!
