I found another glitch.. T.T

I was on the trading quest minigame, and I got some broken glass. For no apparent reason, I went into the bigbuildinginthecenterofNSV and then suddenly the pre-finalboss cutscene plays! You know, the one you get when you go inside the final symbol in the cave.

After the cutscene, I'm suddenly at the final boss and I'm forced to quit without saving 'cause you can't save at the final boss. Now I have to redo all the trading again.. *sob*

XP

This game is so entertaing! I cant beat it worth a cowpie, but still, good job! i just got past the helicompter boss thing, it took FOREVER

[The Chozoen one]

When I come to the bad samosian village, I can't move, but those turrets' explosions scoot me around. So I downloaded the replacement file, but it's still not working. Am I supposed to merge the replacement and the original somehow, or should I just re-download the full version?

[Tryagain]

How many points do you need to get the crystal in the NSV tower?

[Rhymin]

took a while to get through the first part. But it is exelent!
9/10

See, this is exactly why I need people to play the game. That ONLY happens if you go to that building straight after leaving ONE particular other one in the village. Fixed.

So, you came from the east, watched the NPC run away into the village, and then still couldn't move? Or did this happen somewhere else?

Hmm... two endings I was going to ask if there were two but I thought naw Srehpog's trying to break new ground here by ....

Please make this one a bit more subtle. It might be better to preserve the secrecy of exactly what happens for a little longer. Mind you, nobody knows what the good ending does yet...

How many points do you need to get the crystal in the NSV tower?

200. On the others you'll need to get some score on the hardest difficulty. N.B: In the mountain lodge, you want the top floor, not the ground floor.

It was right after that. I walked left to where he had run. Once the alarm sounds, I can't move.

[C-Ator9]

Can anyone help me with the boss with the pyramid in the center (lights)??? I suddenly did SOMETHING (I dunno what ). And then all the lights stopped moving, I hit one and now I don't know what I have to do ...
BTW... I am invincible... :P and I don't know since when...

try entering the village from a different direction...


did you fix the problem with loading a file after the main boss has ben beaten? I don't wanna have to go through the game again to finish all of the quests and such...

OH, and what's with the glowing Samosa symbols on the main screen? They don't appear on my file after i beat the final boss

--thanks, OH, do you have names for the bosses, that i can put in the walkthrough, or should i just name them according to what they're like?

also, do you have any images you'd like to be put into the banner?

durnit. i am at chapter three, and still no clue where to find the first wallet upgrade, i thinnk i really need it.

edit: bug. when i shot the flask across the river and accidently went into the next screen(not the battle) i went back, no ship. i press enter where it is supposed to be, it asks me to embark. when i pressed yes, it kicked me out of the game... !@$%! and i didn't save very recently either. not that it mattered where i saved last i think...

Never mind the boss... but apparently I was invincible until I had like -100 health or something at the end boss, which is btw really really hard...
Question: how do you beat that boss in the 4th round? Sometimes when I shoot at it it moves (like it is hurt) and sometimes not... I hit him a few times and then the shield went away, I hit him with the sword, and did this like 7 times... do I have to do this 10 times?
BTW this game looks very and very familiar, Srehpog... Inspired by Beyond Good and Evil?? (and I want an answer) ...But your game is good

[Srehpog]

That's normal. You need to find a different way into the village or the security system will definitely kill you.

Please send me your .sav file as soon as possible.

- Yes. I think I updated it too...

- That's odd. You may have to send me your .sav file unless I can fix this myself.

- No names yet; I haven't decided.

Wallet upgrades happen in the New Samosa Museum (top floor of the Library). Talk to the NPC at the desk.

Do you mean you died when your health reached -100?

I assume by '4th round' you mean the Electric Triangle Of Doom? If you stand inside it, you'll be safe from one of the boss's attacks, and also be able to shoot it. You'll see it move when you do, as you did. When you've hit it eight times (I think) the ring on the floor will disappear and you can run up to the boss's head and use your sword. Repeat a few times, as you have. If it's not dead after seven or eight actual hits (because it flashes you out of there anyway if he wakes up while you're too close - the triangle shou;ld speed up, look for it), then there's a problem. I think the boss works though, I'll test it tonight.

BG&E? The most obvious similarity I can think of is with the Flask boss and the DomZ serpents....but I never did reach the game boss. I'll see if I can find a picture of him...

Odd, i still get the same problem...

OK, i'll email it to you

Alright, i'll just go with the flask boss, or the helicopter boss, or whatever, until you come up with some. No rush though

Hey can anyone tell me where the missing kytri crystal is? I have 9 kytri crystals:

Srehpog, you said that the building south of NSV and the building left of the Mountain Lodge is a secret... In what way a secret? And can you give us at least a (perhaps cryptic) hint how we can reveal the secrets?
And how must we use the phone???

[Silent Enigma]

I've only played a little bit of this but it looks very good. I'm guessing you did all the artwork yourself? No wonder it took over 2 years!

It has a lot of nice little touches that make it "feel" like a classic Nintendo game.

Great job.

Darn it got so caught up in writing. I should have deleted the post myslef but I have been away for the weekend. Next time I'll be more careful and just not debate game endings on the forums.

200? I've gotten like 265 pts. and still no crystal, and it's the last one I need! Then I'll need a new obsession, I mean game.

[The Chozoen one]

Hmm, another glitch. I entered the water maze with the big octopus thing again, and I was able to go through the damaged engine sequence. The octopus didn't appear though, when I got to its room. Maybe you should block off the cave off once you beat it.

BTW, being a cephalopod fan, I love that boss!

[arao]

errr...is anyone alive/living/playing this freaking awesome game/reading this other than me/bothering sreh with bugs/etc...or is it just me?


anyways, made progres on walkthrough...this is heck though, trying to make maps...hey sreh/anyone else, would you know an easy way to make a map of some of the areas?

also, sreh, when you update the file, on the main post, could you put the most recent update date? it can tend to be confuzzling at times.

hmmmm, so you get the wallets at the museum... and where would i find one of the items i need for the museum? all i did was get to chapter 5, go through the piramid a little and noticed it is fsking hard... and i have gone back through pretty much each area to find something for the museum, but still got nothing... meep. so it got annoying and i accidently deleted it when i downloaded something new that would edit my desktop, but now, im just in heck.

Srehpog, you said that the building south of NSV and the building left of the Mountain Lodge is a secret... In what way a secret? And can you give us at least a (perhaps cryptic) hint how we can reveal the secrets?

yeah, how on earth do you get to those two buildings?

1-800-CHEAT-ME

is that a code for the belt machine that you use to get to the flask boss?

What your looking for is biomatter. One piece has been reveled all ready in this post so I'll repeat it here. Head two screens north of the NSV village (screen with the bomb shop). There is a circle of stones in the middle of the screen. Bomb them and then wave your sword over the gray discoloration in the the center of the stones to get your first piece. I'll leave finding the other 7 pieces to you. One thing though there is a bug that may prevent you from getting one piece. Srehpog knows about it, but I don't know if it's fixed in the current version.

No thats not the code for activating the belt machine. You'll be kicking yourself when you find out what it is.
