Pirate Quest Iteration 3 Released

hello!

just played for a while to see the new changes. some thoughts:

main menu
- cool with new animations on the main screen. background still needs some work. it looks like its still a draft (maybe it is).

tutorial and text
- some tutorial text closes itself and in the beginning several of these screens flash by. pause the game and wait for user click to continue instead.
- some text is too wide for their boxes. like when you find treasure.
- I like that bombs show up. gives the game pace. however it doesn't say WHY they come up anywhere that I could see. until I saw the changelog here on the site.

map
- the minimap on the lower right must be more separated from the actual map. I thought it was a graphical glitch at first Smiling suggest a scrolllike background/border around it with a different backgroundcolor than the real map.
- would be nice to see land and stuff on the minimap. (would help with above issue too)
- "fog of war" effect for a more adventurous feeling Smiling

in-game puzzles
- MUCH nicer puzzle map graphics and gui.
- in puzzle screens animations are nicer (you can do even better though!) the red tiles are easy to see but I don't like all the red. maybe you can use light/dark with good contrasts to separate the tiles instead for nicer graphics.

hope that helps. good work, I'll play again later to see the other environments. Smiling

Some maps are to big, or the GUI to the right is to big, your choise Eye-wink. The GUI is overlapping the game-squares.

Yey, superthanx for massive feedback, I agree on everything! Laughing out loud

The main menu and the map is very drafty right now, we have focused on the ingame gui and game this iteration, and will work on the gamearea and some more work on map and menu during the following iterations...
I think it will be very nice when we get a style for the entire game...

Yes, All levels will be remade for the next iteration, It will be much easier to make levels so we can hopefully get a lot of new fun levels for you to test :roll:
