Here we finish the first level, gameplay becomes more fluent as the "tutorial mode" wears off

Have fun!

Episode 2, "Down into the Dungeon" is online.

In the first part it is still much a tutorial, but it's already becoming more fluent and "action packed"
The video stops at the first half of the first level.

Have fun!

Thank you, that's very wellcome! :) What I can say is that as the game will progress, I'll have to "explain" less mechanics (I'm doing this walktrough in order to be understandable by people who does not know either the game or the whole genere) and it will be more and more fluent (less &q...

Hello, there... I'm starting a Walktrough of Dungeon Master for Amiga on Youtube (It is played on WinUAE, tho) where I share my gameplay style and everything I know about that marvellous game with anybody wishing to watch it. It is in Italian, so be warned ;-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43W45-d...

I'm through it right now, exploring the Ruins. I'm immensely enjoying it, I think it's a very big step forward from the first Grimrock and it's giving me the same joy and excitement that I felt playng through Dungeon Master for the first times when I was a teenager. At first I was doubtful, because ...

"Speak Friend, and enter"

Interesting thread. Dungeon Master was my favourite game until I played Twilight Princess on Wii 5 years ago. So, my expectations about LoG were pretty hihg, and I think Almost Human did an excellent job in almost recreating the feeling of old square based dungeon crawlers using new technology. Ther...

Playing Dark Souls in this days on my PS3. Man, that game absolutely rocks!
I could'nt think they could otdo Demon's Souls this easily but they managed and... Whew! What a game!

Thanx Linflas, I've seen the Chivalry game video and seems interesting, altough I'm not a big fan of PvP games. Meanwhile I've ended Demon's Souls and WHEW! It IS a great game! I'ts harsh, hard, unforgiving but balanced and honest: if you die is YOUR fault. Ok, combat mechanics are not comparable to...

Hello, Thanks for your proposition of testing. Actually I am playing to Anno2070 and in one week to new mmo star wars, so that eats all of my time :D. I have make a version to be tested, but I have to have the courage to listen "it doesn't run, why ?" :) I can understand what you feel. My...

Looks very very cool!
Keep up the good work, and if you need a tester, I have two different configurations to test it with

I tried Dark Messiah some time ago and got a little play on Demon's Souls on PS3, and yes, those looked a lot like Severance, especially the european-dark-fantasy feel. Nevertheless, fighting commands are too simple. Dark Souls looks really promising, i've just seen developer's interview on french ...

Seems quite interesting...

I guess I found what I was looking for. Dark Messiah , together with Demon's Souls ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x948_TUL4-g ) and it's spiritual sequel Dark Souls ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJHLyzGfXfU ) I guess these three games will give me tenths of unforgiving gameplay. Thanks for the ...

Thx for the info, I'll give it a look.

The DM Magick Lore doesn't explicity state anything about casting mistaken runes. But I think that reading between the lines it's pretty obvious every rune consumes mana, regardless of the intention. The manual *does* state "Only caution will spare him from foolish mistakes." So, to summa...

Thanks guys for the support. As stated before I have started trying to be an artist myself. Here are some models I have created. I am very happy with them but they took my ages :O) http://www.shadowtavern.com/Entombed/links/shrieker.png http://www.shadowtavern.com/Entombed/links/zb2.png http://www....

not really but there are combos, simplified but every fight is like Samurai Shodown, especially against bosses.

Mmmm.... that's interesting...

As I told in other posts I'm no way an artist, but I can help with ideas for game mechanics, background, level design support, and the like

Thanks for the answers, but I'm looking for a game where every single fight is to be taken seriously and is played, seamlessly witht the exploring, like a 1Vs1 match (or 1Vs Many) of Soul Calibur or Tekken. I've played "The Witcher" and immensely loved it, but it's combat system is more ak...

Prince of persia games have similar gameplay to Severance?

How about starting a new thread to discuss what can be done to jump start Entombed? Grimrock's video got over 200,000 views on Youtube in less than two weeks, so there is clear interest in old school dungeon RPGs. Surely one or two of those people are animators or artists, and perhaps it is just a ...

Hello, I'm looking for some game, for any platform, that resembles the gameplay of Severance, Blade of darkness. Video example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qoLgRznpUBA In short, Severance was an action fantasy RPG game, but the game mechanics implied that each fight was sort of like a soul calibu...

Amazing work. Cant wait to play it, guys I wish you all the best with this and hope its a real success for you ! Side note 1 ..... Either Im blind or something weird is going on ... I cant see your SSAO in the video, was it switched off. Are there any screen shots with SSAO turned on so I can see h...

Don't ask me why, but I've always played DM with mouse only. I do love moving my party clicking on the control arrows...
I know, it sounds and in fact a little bit it is stupid, but that's the wai I always played DM and it's clones

Well, let's see... 1 )Dungeon Master/CSB - They have been surpassed by now on most aspects, but they still have a reserved place in my heart. 2 )The Witcher 3 )Baldur's Gate 4 )A.D.O.M. - This is a freeware RogueLike whose playability is just, well... beyond. 5 )Baldur's Gate II - More complete than...

That looks truly awesome!
Can't wait to put my hands on it!

Really gorgeous news!
Thanx for sharing that!

PS: if you need betatesters... count me in!

Very impressive for an 8Bit project!
