If it is too hard If it's too hard I can make it easier from the start. I figured I'd make it a little difficult at the beginning to give the sense of being a young mage run away from mage school. With a little playing you become quite powerful though. Please let me know if you players think it is TOO difficult. |

Very nice Man, you overdid yourself. It was friggin' awesome. This is one game you can really get into. I thought since it took so long to load, it'd run slow on my computer. However, this game ran fine, I can't beleive you were able to do that... This has a great and fitting storyline, and tons of character developement. As far as gameplay goes, there are tons of different enviroments, many different enemies, and a horde of spells you can tap into. The graphics bring everything already there to the top. A-class work in that area. The music really adds to everything and inspires you to get on with the game. Really good music. That's my praise. Two concerns however...: - The game runs at a fine speed, but the character move too slow. Getting through those gaps between enemies is drudgingly boring... - Bug: I create my spells and assign them into my 1-5 slots, and goto the map, I save and am transported into the game. WITHOUT any of my new spells! I am stuck with the same stats and the same spells the whole time! I press ESC and goto the map, from there I goto the spells screen, all my created spells have been removed, from both the spell list and my 1-5 tool list... Fix this, because that's what got me off playing it. I see all these cool spells and can't use any!!!!! Tell me whats wrong, and what I should do to avoid this problem? Rating: Spectacular game, and crippling bug. -Shadestorm |

Re: Erm... Are you running windows 98 by chance? The only DLL's that this game is calling are the ones that called by default by Game Maker. This is very interesting. I'm going to release a version that runs in exclusive graphics mode tonight. I will attempt to cut down on the resource usage as well. Very very interesting. Game runs in 32bit color mode at 800 X 600. Very freaky huh? Don't worry guys I'll get it fixed. If anyone wants to write an instruction manual for me that would kick arse since the game info can't be displayed in the exclusive graphics mode. You'll get a big fat place in the credits.

If you ever want to make any money on any of your GM games, this is the one to sell man. I would've paid for it if I hadn't had the option of getting it free . For this game, shareware would be best.

Re: Erm... 32bit runs nastily slow. I was making my RPG in 32bit, unhappy with my battle system that was moving too slow. Then I sent the game into 16 bit and magically, the entire game ran like 40 frames faster, with fluid, beautiful speed. |

 AWESOME!!This is awesome, one of the best GM games ever. Although, how do you get to the map/spells screen, I've read the help and and is doesn't tell you how you even get to these screens, I downloaded the .exe one, if that helps. I'm also stuck in the second room (ice) I destroyed all the monsters. But anything to do with the spells doesn't work. Like 1 - 5 does nothing etc. When I walk into those Element Rock things, symbols come up, and there's no instructions what so ever to do! Help, maybe you need much more detail in your help file, because it makes no sense to me. The gameplay of what I see so far is great. Regards, Tim. |

I would like to play it more to see what is ahead, but i find that first part of the game too boring, too slow. Great job, you should sell this game. http://teiravontales.tripod.com |

Re: Mage Craft - Action RPG - 95/98/Me Bug FIXED! This is a great game. I love the storyline. Many a few games have actually any story at all, and the graphics used to tell the story are great! The graphics are the best I've ever seen in any game. It's probably and in my opinion is the best GM game ever made. Keep up the great work. I would definetly love to see a sequel. -Casey Rafn Rafn Games |

Re: Mage Craft I've been playing this off and on for several days now. It took me several tries to figure out what's going on and survive to actually get somewhere. It's really nice to see all-original graphics, and these ones are done well. The game's mechanics are also unique and effective. The game is very hard, but since it it so well-designed, it doesn't make me want to just give up. However, I have had to go through several areas many times just to build up levels, and it's a little frustrating to get to the second area of a 2-area part and just get annihilated instantly and have to give up and return to the map to start over later. I'm not sure whether it was intentional, but you left the F5 and F6 keys enabled. I don't think I would have gotten anywhere without these, but I've encountered some strange bugs when I use them to load my game--nothing huge, though. Anyway, very good job on this. I look forward to seeing the rest of the game once I am able to get somewhere. -- |

Re: Mage Craft Finished the game and I had to comment again. My earlier impression was based on just dying a lot near the beginning. :) For anyone who gave up because the game is so hard early on, give it another chance--the game is amazing. I was constantly surprised and impressed with the depth of it as I went along. For a game like this, you don't have to qualify compliments by adding "for a GM game." This is an excellent game by any standard. A few minor things I thought could use some polish--I'll contact you directly Darthlupi about those. Anyway, I can't recommend this highly enough. -- |

9.99/10! Absolutely amazing! I gotta admit, this is thee best GM game I've played! There's only a few problems I've found... Spelling and grammer could and probably should be improved. Graphics are good, but better graphics could help this game's potential. Characters need to move a little faster, at least the player does anyway. Spells need to do more damage, or charging needs to take less time. Those are the only things I could see wrong. A sequal is anticipated here, as well. Sound is excelluntly perfulus(which is a good thing  )! Good programming!

Re: 999/10! This is the best gm game I've ever played! You should make a sequal. A few things that could have made it better were... Sorry, I can't think of any but spelling and grammer. By the way, what kind of background sound was that on the game, because I noticed that there were no hickups. Was it MOD, or something else?  |

Re: 999/10! Believe it or not the songs where mostly .mp3 and .wma I believe. I got them all from sounddogs.com All of the sound effects where 16bit mono wav files that I HAD to convert from .asx and various other sound types. I can't remember them all. I'll fix that spelling soon. Even though it's "completed" it is still version 1.0 of the game if that. Prolly still beta in the industry standards eyes. Glad you all liked it! NOTE ON DIFFICULTY: It gets easier. There are several items that increase your speed and power. The game is designed to give the sense of kid who dropped out of school and had to make it on his own. It ain't easy, but if you are steadfast you'll be quite a powerful foe for evil. Please email bugs and spelling errors or anything odd to darthlupi@comcast.net ()===||;;;;;;;;> |

Re: to help or not to help, that is the question Hmmm... I give it an 8.9 / 10 ( Mostly because I haven't gotten too far yet. ) Great ideas, great graphics, good story. Only real problems are: -The f1 help doesnt really help  , at least for starters, especially for which keys to use.-Not always, if ever, sure what the pop-up windows mean. -And finally, its a little tough starting out due to slow character movement, but that may have a reason further on down the road. Nice gameplay though. I really like the magical charging and effects, reminds me of games I've been meaning to work on... Keep up the good work - Lord YoYo (aim) - timmyb2003@juno.com p.s. it had no problems whatsoever running on my little computer... pentium-4 2 gighz, windows ME, 256 ddr ram, 64 mb geforce vid card... my point is however, its a 30 gig hard drive loaded 99.99% full with my stuff.. heheh.. (aka it lags most things anyways, but your game worked perfectly fine) wip's |

hey so i played it grphix are most wonderful especialy its usage and music umhmmmmmmm so good. I need to contact ur music gu i need some for zwing. the artestec look and sound is perfect but best thing is it doesnt end there!!! the game play is good and game rules are very original and well thoughthrough. U had to test it quite often. Only problem- its way too hard. But actualy not so bad it made me play many hours in row anyway. Somehow it makes me to play althpugh im not a pacient player(by the way no pacient creator either) otherone as allways it runs slow on my comp i guess its just low video memory or something. Anyway the game is great hopefuly ill pass the slow begining to get to more exiting part. hopefuly the game will find enough pacient and hard playing players to try to finish the game. pls support the join effort to make clear wide review database game maker review database or go forum topic about database |

Re: hey This game is certainly worth finishing. darthlupi - What did you change to make it easier? -- |

Re: hey What I did was make it so that the monsters didn't get stronger as you did. It made the game very unbalanced in my opinion. Instead they get stronger as you actually go higher in the map levels. ()===||;;;;;;;;> |

Re: hey excellent. i can actually get somewhere now.. with cheats on course i couldnt get the stats cheat to work till i tried typing it in at the stats page, which sent me to one of the advanced levels, but the cheat worked from then on. i do have to admit tho, at first i was like 'dude.. its the same..' and i got frustrated. but then i kept playing as it got more and more interesting. course i had cheats on, but that still didnt take away the fun. original-ish idea, great graphics, perfect fitting sounds and music, strategic action adventure mystical gameplay. 9.99999999999 / 10 practically perfection. ( i cant give it a 10 tho cuz there were a couple very minor errors, such as the big desert boss walking into the outer wall and staying there a while - course i was to blame there, cuz i twisted him up with 30 summoned goblins chasing him. and some small doorways and paths between bushes are a tiny bit hard to go through, for the first 2 seconds. neither of which are real problems at all. ) so for all true purposes, 10 / 10. perfect. kept me up till like 2 am playing it last night... which is late cuz i need my beauty sleep. keep up the good work. wip's, yeah i know its crazy to work on so many at once. so sue me ;p |

Re: hey Really like your strategy on the Golgore Monster (that's what I named the Desert Boss). Lots of goblins. HA! Never thought of that. I know my instructions are lame as heck. If you or any one else ever feels the itcht to right some new ones in a text or word document you'll get a huge place in the credits! Thanks for the compliments too! ()===||;;;;;;;;> |

Re: hey hey Darthlupi! you probably don't remember me, but I was a pretty active member here for a while, and I used to post in almost every WIP game, I actually made a post about someting like that in Community Speak, and if memory serves you helped me w/ that. anyways, I tried to d/l the game, (tapeworm suggested it to me), but when I clicked new, I got an empty error box that just had the file name and an okay button. I'll try again and see if it happens again, I hope it doesn't, as this game sounds great EDIT: I tried again, and it crashed before it even finished loading. MB it's myc omputer, so I'm gonna reset before I try again. EDIT2: Rebooting appeared to be the cure, sorry for any false alarm. Anyways, I didn't get to play for long, but those are great graphics! nice story, too . And the music really fit the scene! Great job! I hope to play it again later!

Re: Mage Craft - Action RPG - Made Easier and Cheats add I just started looking at this game for 5 minutes and I love it already. But before I get into this game I want to pass on some proof-reading corrections notes I made from the story at the start of the game. In order of appearance : 'as potent a the love a woman' -- A missing letter and word here. 'Every was perfect.'--Should be 'Everything' 'report from thier team' - typo As I say, barely looked at it yet, but the graphics are excellent, and the choice of music really good. I like the bloody footprints. That is, I like the effect, not the fact that my mage was getting killed. Now back to the game! LF Frogbar demo : WIP, about 80% finished. at: 10/2/03 10:16 am |

yeah, I'm back I don't visit here as much because I'm a global mod at another forum, and so I have to go there more. If I wasn't, I'd probably start up another 'crusade'. I still post in WIP...when I have time. Anyways, I d/led the game again, and I'm gonna try it and try to beat it. When I'm done, I'll write a 'rabidreview' (I write these when I play games a lot) |

Re: Mage Craft - Action RPG - Made Easier and Cheats add Since confusion in the beginning turns some people away from this game, I decided to made a quick beginner's guide to Mage Craft. It's not much, really, but you can see it here: How to Play Mage Craft The guide explains the basics of combat, spell creation, what the different meters and numbers represent, and some tips that might be helpful. Thanks Beanjo--fixed that. -- at: 10/11/03 6:20 pm |

Re: Mage Craft - Action RPG - Made Easier and Cheats add Nice guide Tape Worm Since I'm complimenting it, I might as well point something extremely small out: The six rows of boxes you see show the spells you have created. Hover your cursor over a spell you have learned to see its description. Under this, you can see how many of each element you have collected. To build a spell, drag the currect elements into the squares at the bottom of the screen and click Create. This is when you need to remember what you learned from the telling stones. Poonta? |

Re: Kudos 3. a very huge bug you can click on the area where the credits are (and get the powerups that area there) before you beat the game That was not a bug - it was a silly easter egg. Thanks for the compliment man. Makes me proud to know that you guys like my game this much! ()===||;;;;;;;;> |

Re: Kudos Time for: therabidreview by: therabidwombat (Now on GMC!) Graphics: The graphics fit the purpose very well, and they are not too detailed as to be distracting. Only problem I had was some enemies look the same to me. 9/10 Music: The music all fit the mood very well, and some of it was catchy. Great job! 10/10 SFX: Every sound effect played without a hitch and right on time. and they all fit the action. 10/10 Controls: At first, they seem weird, as they are very unique. Once you get used to them, you find them to be very responsive, and very well done. My only complaint is that, normally when one hand is on the mouse, the other is closer to the left side of the keyboard, so maybe some options to change that would have been nice. 9/10 Level Design: Ingenuity: This game has a battle system liek none I've seen before, and it still builds on some addicting RPG elements (building up your character, etc.). The battle system was great, and overall teh game itself was a fresh taste. 10/10 Bug Free: I didn't encounter any bugs. 10/10 Story: Some war, some girl lost. Basic video game maladies, but used in such a way to create a story that fit the levels quite well...and in a game, that matters a lot. 10/10 Overal: Great game, almost flawless. Among the best GM games I have ever played. Heck, among the best computer games I have ever played (but don't read too much into that, I don't normally play computer games). 10/10 The waffles are gone...I wonder what scared them off?

Re: Kudos That was a great review! Very indepth. Thank you very much. That easter egg is quite a bonus I know. Most people don't know about it though, or they didn't. You still have to go through most of the levels to get the telling stones. CHEATS You have to press enter first to clear the keyboard buffer. Then enter the code. Then press enter again. They are : happyhappyjoyjoy and hailtotheking ()===||;;;;;;;;> |
