Come to think of it, the beginning area does kinda look like the Green Hill Zone from Sonic the Hedgehog, but eh, a lot of early 256 color games were really colorful since the devs wanted to show off the tech. Guess, Cleve's emulating this look.

I don't understand this joke. You're not seriously playing Crapwata Shitjo are you?

Why not? It's a critically acclaimed visual novel. A p nice story fag game. I went in without reading any spoilers and the prologue seemed really cool. Does it get cringey later on?

Yes, someone boasts that they will suck their own dick and record it if they lose a bet. It could be very triggering for you.

Err, eh he he. I wouldn't know because I don't play that kind of game...

But you should try taking tea if you want to meet best girl, inversely avoid the track because this is where the worst girl is or so I'm told.

Got two winners for this round. Unfortunately I guess 4 copies of Grimwah in a day was too much incline for the steam store and my account is purchase locked while valve approves my card.

Please be patient while I fix this micro-issue.

Setting Game Start to IMPRISONED and trying to escape is much more fun and results in lots of treasure. But the prison guards must be skillfully evaded with setting encounters to never at places where they catch you, they are too strong.

NEW UPDATE

 

[Dorateen]

The pragmatic view is that backers will be able to download a fixed and more stable version thanks to the good people who have been reporting bugs the past few days.

 

[Baptismbyfire]

Maybe now we will finally get our backer keys.

Is this what you keep telling yourself, huh.

Cleve, I know you have higher priorities, but surely a man with an IQ over 180, knows the difference between a pronoun and a contraction! FFS

Just in case...

His
Hers
Its

all pronouns.

It's = contraction for it is.

Pronouns don't use the possessive. Thalglish may have different rules I realise

 

[Arulan]

I've only played for a few hours so far, but I've really enjoyed it.

What are the changes with difficulty?

I'm sure it has been mentioned at some point, but the mouse delay while scaling in fullscreen mode is bothersome. Aside from not scaling, or perhaps changing my display resolution before launching the game, is there a temporary fix for this? This is on Windows 10.

There's a similar error in the museum of magic that triggered my autism as well.

As I understand it, you can't target specific enemies. Very annoying indeed, and it's incredibly frustrating when your poison spell hits the SAME already-poisoned enemy instead of the other, non-poisoned one.

But, during one fight, my mages, when Thrusting, actually got a little popup and could choose between the two hummingbirds. Never happened again.

Has this been brought up before?

It's exactly like Wizardry. When you were given the choice between birds, you were looking at 2 stacks of 1 bird, not 1 stack of 2 birds.

Good morning codex. First 2 people to add goldenbabygiveaways as a friend and type "monocle" in chat get to see inside Cleve's wonderful madness.

Thanks for the copy!

Guess I'll now have to leave a positive review to not look like an ass. Oh man.
:selfhate:

 

[DashiDMV]

Micro-Issue crushed. Did the Sapiens at Steam think they could defy the Neaderthal's will?

No better way to spend a sunday than playing a great blobber that just got a new patch.

Next 2 people who add goldenbabygiveways as a friend and type in chat ?RudeChap? can search for Count Orloch.

You can target rows but not singular enemies in them.

Well, there were only two hummingbirds when my mages got the target choice popup so they were in different rows? Also, none of my other characters got the popup.

I'm kicking myself for not taking a screenshot, but I will next time.

I suspect the staff your mages have can "reach" further into the enemy ranks while your other fighters were prohibited from targeting the further away enemy with their weapons.

Okay, the game actually runs pretty well on my rig, fullscreen with all bells and whistles.

Why does it take forever to kill 3 ?BUG?s though? What's the difference between all the attack types? Pretty hard to figure out without a manual.

 

[jfunk]

Regarding targeting and the whole combat system in general, if I recall correctly from one of the old Wizardry manuals, the concept of the phased combat system to somewhat simulate the "chaos" of battle in a turn based environment. So when you give your orders, it's what you "intend" to do, but your characters have to somewhat dynamically adjust to the situation as it's happening.

now its crashing every single time i try to click on any char :/

Different attack types will work better against different targets. Anecdotally, it seems to me that Slashing/Swinging works best on plants, Smashing works best on worms, and Thrusting/Stabbing works best on hard shelled things. I'm guessing it's easier to hit with a slash, but harder to penetrate, etc.

I wasn't even remotely thinking I would. But I bought it.

White power organizations world-wide thank you for your support. And don't even try to pretend that you don't know about narcissistic Cleve's endlessly shouted racist and homophobic beliefs--you've been involved with gaming far too long. Anyone as informed as you who buys Cleve's game is deliberately sending money to a virulent race war advocate.

GOG release when?

Hey Cleve,

Just installed the latest patch and I'm not sure if the encounter settings work anymore (Never/Rare/Onslaught, etc.). To test it, I set it to Never but now I get a battle every 2 steps. It also might just be the area that I'm in (Hobknob's area).

Haven't tested yet, but my understanding is that there are set encounters on the maps too so you still have to "clear" an area even if you have it set to none. So not every encounter you have while exploring is subject to the encounter frequency.

Got a question. I just found out that wall banging (my standard mode in these kinda games) may not apply here, since Detect Secret just alerted me to a switch which opens a wall in the Shrine of the Raptor. So, my question is, is there any point in wall banging? Put another way, are there any 'fake' walls, as opposed to walls that disappear by activating a hidden switch? I guess only CMB can answer this one, so I will continue banging for now.
