| 6504 | GLHack | games | 6395 | graphical maybe but not very nice | Nethack looks cool on console but it can look good ingraphics too. the problem is that when you do graphics you need to think about good graphics for the graphics in GLhack are ugly (sorry), next time look at falcoons eye. | 2002-09-06 05:47:26 | 0 |

| 6506 | Linley's Dungeon Crawl | games | -1 | Re: What's the difference with NetHack ? | No, this is a very different game. It relies much less on hidden-information and complex interactions between objects, and more on building up a character and acquiring abilities. There are more spells, the gods have more of a role in the game (and more individuality), but there are less clever little nooks and crannies. (eg: no cockatrice corpses..) <p> There is one similarity, though: both games are extremely hard to win. <p> Daniel | 2002-09-06 09:06:11 | 6499 |
| 6507 | FreeDroid | games | -1 | Re: Me Need help | You can get more energy on the sparkly charger tiles. However, you have to take over bots to increase the maximum energy you can take on. If you kill bots instead of taking them over, you will not be able to increase your energy tp levels high enough to take on the more powerful robots on the ship. | 2002-09-06 09:19:56 | 6505 |
| 6508 | FreeDroid | games | -1 | Comment on the new (RPG) version | I have a comment on the RPG version -- I played both 0.8 and 0.9, and found 0.9 to be really a different game. I'm glad to see people experimenting with new game styles, but I felt that the simplicity and elegance of the gameplay in 0.8 was lost by the wayside. (I wasn't all that thrilled about the storyline either, but that's another story..) I also noticed that the game takes significantly longer to load, and some in-game activities (like accessing computer console maps) take a long time in the new version. <p> Would it be possible for the original, somewhat smaller/simpler game to be reintroduced into 0.9, or split off and maintained as a parallel project? <p> Daniel | 2002-09-06 11:08:37 | 0 |
| 6509 | FreeDroid | games | -1 | Re: Comment on the new (RPG) version | Funny, I think the new rpg part was a great improvement in the game. It is (IMMHO) 200x more fun than the older simpler game. Also there are at least 3 diffrent projects that are working on diffrent versions of the older and simpler game. You suggestion on having 2 modes of gameplay is a good idea i think however so one can have great fun in the rpg mode or enjoy the nastalgia of the old. I do agree that the story line isn't up to par as a single company coulden't gain such power if real gubamints still exist (they would become quite irate and automatic weapons would be despeced) . The new pre 0.9 crashes alot at doors too. And in the ship map it shows you are under ground but outside i see stars?! stars should only be in above ground levels. The rpg is a huge improvement in my view, I hope to be delited with more features. And please find the timeto code before october! :) /me only knows perl so... 1 more thing i cant seem to get the lift to work on the purple level. And why do the levels change to grey after awhile? | 2002-09-06 11:24:12 | 6508 |
| 6510 | FreeDroid | games | -1 | Re: Comment on the new (RPG) version | Another bug: the sparkly floor isnt recharging my life/energy | 2002-09-06 11:28:46 | 6509 |
| 6511 | FreeDroid | games | -1 | Re: Me Need help | You can get more energy on the sparkly charger tiles this doesnt seem to work, why? (0.9 pre) | 2002-09-06 14:44:21 | 6507 |
| 6512 | FreeDroid | games | 4512 | Interesting... | Didn't download this game before, as I already have Nighthawk (a GPL Paradroid clone), and whilst I found that OK, it didn't really grab me very much.<P> But then seeing this project taking the twist of being "a mix of the games Paradroid and Diablo I" (which it probably isn't), I thought I'd give it a go.<P> My observations and general grumbles:<BR> - Menus are slow, and sometimes displayed wrong<BR> - Controls aren't totally explained in the instructions - When you click the <B>CHA</B> icon, which seems to be to show your character's stats in a half-screen window, that window is then STUCK there permanently, although if you click the icon in the bottom left corner, that covers it with another window (for choosing a secondary weapon??) until you click the icon again to remove it- which leaves the stats window still there. Presumably you're supposed to click the <B>CHA</B> icon again to remove it, but it goes!<BR> - When you click that icon in the bottom left corner, which pops up that window that allows you to choose what the right-click does, you end up using your primary weapon (such as sword- or LASER...). The same happens when you try to click one of the icons on the window that pops up. That's bad. <BR> - It looks like there are extra icons fallen off the bottom of that window<BR> - God only knows what half of the stuff means, there's very little to explain it!!<BR> - Very difficult to get to the "taking over enemy droids" subgames, and I haven't got a clue how those subgames work :P<BR> - It tries to write a config file in my home directory, but not beginning with a dot, which is naughty. This config file also seems to store the fact that the stats window is up if it was, and so you can start a game with the thing already stuck there unless you delete it first!!!<BR> - At least once, those half-screen windows left the game rendering things like the intro screen, etc, in weird half-screen ways that I can't really explain.<BR> - Inventory screen got a bit confused, apparently by picking up of "cyberbucks". Can't explain how.<BR> - As lots of other people said- you can't recharge your energy with the sparkly floors.<P> Ahem.Sorry if I sound negative! Anyway, would be interested in having another look when at least <I>some</I> of these points are fixed! :) Good luck with the project! | 2002-09-06 22:03:21 | 0 |
| 6513 | FreeDroid | games | -1 | Re: Interesting... | To get rid of CHA press C to get rid of inventory press I and the other thing S. Grrr i keep dieing because the sparkly floors dont work and that lift on the purple 4th floor dosent either so i gant advance since ive slaughtered everything! But the game is madd fun tho keep making it better, how bout making the robots look like they do in the info screens - it seems that you allready have the 3D models. | 2002-09-07 06:35:27 | 6512 |
