Re: Super Dungeon Master: Quest for the Firestaff

Lol - that's fine: trying to remember, but I think I added in 6 new characters due to people on the boards (misskarna's foursome, a tg fairy and a troll -as it is my avatar...) however, in the game, there are 4 more story-driven ones too. Would add that the stem version has some balancing fixes: yo ...

Re: Super Dungeon Master: Quest for the Firestaff

Why thankyou Sera! You have just made my day, ;). As an update: found out quite a few things about SteamWorks: firstly, took me like 3 days, including artwork, to bang in and test 32 Achievements. Really simple. In addition to the 'app' you also get a free DEMO slot to fill as well AND two further s...

Re: 30th anniversary!

Happy Birthday to Dungeon Master... :) Got this on the Atari ST (aka, the 'proper' version :wink: ) on launch: it was out before Christmas 1987... man, the albums I was listening too when I first played this... they did not all stand the test of time, and yet Dungeon Master did. Happy birthday - and...

Re: Worst Company in America

You worked for EA? I don't know whether to be impressed or furious with you! If I hear that you designed the Dungeon Keeper app I will hunt you down :wink: Oh I wish... EA had many many studios... it would buy and absorb others. So I was in EA mobile, which in itself was mainly an old mobile-phone ...

The 'Massive-Spoiler Parlour Game': succinctly summarise the stories

Hi, first off, SPOILER warning, ;). I am curious - having revisited Dungeon Master I had to re-think of it in terms of goals and objectives. From this I created a 20-point list of game-goals: hit all of them and you win the game. Choose your Champions. Welcome: learn the basics of combat, navigation...

It was the game where you could play many different people, provided you died: Primarily a Dreamcast game, made by the guys who later went on to make Farenheit and Heavy Rain. But I never played those, just this very odd game.:)

Re: overhead DM

Wow - it looked great... amazing. Puts my effort to shame as this looks to follow the DM mechanics much more rigorously.
Interesting to see your corridors being 2 tiles wide, which must have made blocking enemies and pads a bit more demanding to put in.
