  1. Minions of Mirth - Game Vortex Review

    http://www.gamevortex.com/gamevortex/soft_rev.php/2953 MoM received an 85% rating, which doesn't totally suck. -Josh Ritter Prairie Games, Inc http://www.prairiegames.com

  2. Minions of Mirth ramblings

    Monsters have collision boxes, that's why you can select them when you click on them. There isn't collision between monsters and players by choice. I find it annoying to be blocked or bumped around by monsters. Btw, we just upgraded our PrairieWorld online server to a Dual Xeon 3.2 ghz on a...

  3. Minions of Mirth ramblings

    You can go first person with the comma key or by using the mouse wheel. I do want to simplify the healing process. Check out this thread for some healing tips. You can also target another character by right clicking on their portrait or shift F1-F6. If you play one character, the game...

  4. Development Info Christmas is a time for Mirth

    This would be a preference that we could add to the game. In the months of testing, no one brought it up. I personally wouldn't use such an option. It wouldn't be the default because many people would toggle the mouse off and get totally confused where the mouse pointer disappeared to! I...

  5. Development Info Christmas is a time for Mirth

    The mouse is the primary input device for looking and for interacting with the game's GUI. You hold down the right mouse button to mouse look. The mouse look key you mention is primarily for OSX users who have one mouse button. -Josh Ritter Prairie Games, Inc

  6. Development Info Christmas is a time for Mirth

    @crpgnut: You are absolutely right that the help sucks in those cases. We are working on better documentation. The core development team of the game is 2 people. Yargh! At any rate, Rescue will make whatever monsters you are fighting target the rescuing character. This is great if your...

  7. Development Info Christmas is a time for Mirth

    There is extensive help in game by clicking on the question mark symbol on the tome. There is a full list of mouse/keyboard actions, commands, and a FAQ. There are also tooltips for just about every element of the GUI. We do need to generate better documentation. -Josh Ritter Prairie...

  8. Development Info Christmas is a time for Mirth

    @crpgnut: There is a minor XP penalty for dying after level 5. There are bindstones around the world that you can double click to set where you respawn. There are also teleportation spells and gate potions that drop off monsters for traveling. -Josh Ritter Prairie Games, Inc

  9. Development Info Christmas is a time for Mirth

    There are also party and alliance versions of buffs and healing spells... which make it quite easy :) If you play one character, and you heal, the game automatically knows to heal you. Options, options, and options. MoM can be a bit overwhelming because it gives you so many. -Josh...

  10. Development Info Christmas is a time for Mirth

    @Hardcode: Thanks, though I am not sure what the alternative is... "Please try our game, it's now been released." I don't think the features are at all overstated, in fact most are quite matter of fact. I suppose I could have said "Large Scale Battle System" instead of "Epic". Press Releases...

  11. Development Info Christmas is a time for Mirth

    There are 2 main quests and lots of side quests to complete. There are monsters to unlock, equipment to loot, dungeons to explore, etc... Otherwise, yes, it's just a huge world to explore and become powerful in... http://www.prairiegames.com/MoM_Promo1.wmv It certainly won't appeal to...

  12. Development Info Christmas is a time for Mirth

    NWN, Diablo, Baldur's Gate all have "macros" or hotkeys. Ours do happen to be programmable, though you don't have the program them, you can just drag and drop. Right click on any item to get more information about it. Rasil Ithian is the Ranger trainer, I believe you were talking to Captain...

  13. Development Info Christmas is a time for Mirth

    You start with a Bag of Kinsfoil as a ranger. Right click it and the game lets you know to bring it your trainer, Rasil Ithian. He gives you a nice bow and some arrows. I'm not sure why you couldn't equip the bow you bought. Do you mean you couldn't figure out how to use it? 1. When...

  14. Development Info Christmas is a time for Mirth

    Ah, my mistake. I took linking to a woman crapping on her own face with the words "MoM Characters" to be the disservice. Thanks for clearing that up. -Josh Ritter Prairie Games, Inc
