Yeah, I am a little confused too-- I would love to see a map

I am guessing we are standing in the room where the truth/lie puzzle was?

Thinking fast, Rob whips out his Whistle of Feather Fall and blows it sharply at the silver dragon. Hopefully the reduction in weight will allow the dragon to fly to safely under its own power

"I'll bet whatever is waiting for us in the next room is even worse than the sharks, and letting the sharks fight it for us sounds nice to me." Still thinking out loud, Rob looks at the lava under the bridge. "I wonder what those rock-swimming sharks would think of molten rock. I don...

As they retreat to the Lava room, Rob asks Dan,

"Dad, if they can't bite into the ethereal plane, can't you just ferry us all through a few at a time?"

The reason we left gamepads and joysticks disabled by default: * people would complain about an arrow key being stuck down all the time and it would turn out they had an un-centered joystick. This was probably a DOS only problem and does not matter any more * people would complain about the use or c...

I just tested using Test Game set to take 80% of screen width on Windows 7 Using both gfx_directx and gfx_sdl I see the same symptom that Willy describes. The window starts out centered at default (50%?) resolution, then scales to the 80% size while keeping the top left corner in the original positi...

Thanks Pheonix for both the review and the fan-art

You have got me thinking about possible ways to deal with those frustrating no-move-available situations that sometimes kill your attack bonus so brutally. If I can pull the ideas together, there might be a possibility of a future update

If someone can find a way to safely lure the shark to the surface where I can see it, I can try to sing a song of Fascinate to hold its attention.

We have only seen one shark, but I am assuming that this is valid information you leaked here. There is an unknown number of landsharks, but more than just one.

Rob searches through his magical items trying to find something tht would be useful, and finds nothing. Then he stares at the stone for a while (from a safe distance) hoping that Nerroth might erupt out of the shark's belly in dragon-form... Finally he says "Friends, how are we going to jump o...

Unfortunately I have not touched the controller code in years, it is definitely due for some serious cleanup. I don't actually own a suitable controller, so I don't know how I am going to test it. It seems like most people use Playstation/Xbox controllers, and I am not even sure the proper way to co...

Okay. I made lotsa new stuff now, but now I'm working on a boss-battle which will include a quiz. The quiz is simple; there's a corrct answer to every question, and if you are correct the enemy sprite changes from sad to happy. It has three/four phases. However, whenever you get a wrong guess, the ...

Oh! I had an issue I wanted to ask you about, but I got sidetracked and forgot. I think I am stuck in Auguropolis Spire. It is an area with crystal platforms, and there are four round yellow/blue switches that toggle sections of the floor into and out of existence. I can't figure out a combination o...

I don't think tags are the right tool for the job. I would do this with counterattacks. First, go into "Edit Global Text Strings" and name two of your elements "Agree" and "Disagree" (if you are already using all 16 of the standard elements, go to "Edit General Gam...
