best game maker game eveeeeeeeeeeer!!!!!!!!!

[MaartenR]

Hmm 'game maker game'... That makes this game sound less then it deserves. It's about the final result not the program the game is developed in.
I can say this is the best rpg I have ever played. (And probably the most enjoyable pc game too)
I wish there was still a market for 2d games.... Damn 3d.

[talha]

but still, it doesnt change that its the best gm game

Im stuck in chapter2: how do I get torpedoes for the "boat"?

[Micus]

I've been enjoying this game for a week now in my spare time. Really good gameplay and a good storyline I think. I'm in chapter 3 now just exploring. I've noticed a fair number of typos as I've played and have screenshotted them as I ran across them. If you're still updating the game, please fix as mispellings can be quite jarring!

Typo 1
Typo 2
Typo 3
Typo 4
Typo 5
Typo 6
Typo 7
Typo 8
Typo 9
Typo 10

And a few bugs to round things off.

You can walk through that corner.


The bordered area is impassible even though no obstruction is visible.


When fighting this boss, if you fall into a pit you are respawned on the door glyph and unable to move.



I will continue noting typos/bugs as I play if you wish. Thank you for a great game!

O and does anybody know any cheats for the phone thing?
Any tips for the final boss btw? i m still stuck at his first form...

[LedgendaryHero]

Ive played throught the first chapter in the game and already im amazed. Im trying to make a game of my own, and want to use some of these amazing things in mine. Ive tinkered around, but can find the way to do them. Please help. My main issues are:

* The multi-answerable questions.

* Inventory

* Naming the character and named save filed on the loading screen

* The images in the inventory on the load screen

* The items displayed on the screen, and the healthbar's display

* having an ammount of bullets and displaying them, and not being able to shoot without them

Also, i cant figure the animations out. Ive got multi-imaged spirtes but they don't play the animation unless i hold the spacebar down. And when they do, they keep moving in the last direction i chose. If you could help, or anyone else, that would be great. My E-mail adress is Im-a-dufus@hotmail.com, if you wanna email me. i dont mean to sound like im not trying and just depending on you, 'cause i have tried. Anyway, email me.

For the final boss first stage. Get the big flask, then stay out of range of his blast, you will still get hurt when the wind thing comes. When he starts sucking, use bombs. Eventually the bombs will destory his first form. While you wait make sure you avoid the falling missiles and get the coffee and ammo, etc off of them.

Second stage he has a mobile head that fires a laser and can be destroyed by shooting at it. Using the big blast will cut down on time. You will want to replenish your ammo from the things on the side of the columns. The legs, you can either shoot then slash with the sword; or blow with the bomb and slash. The head and legs drop large coffee stashes.

Last stage is just the main body. I don't get the actual rule for putting his shield down, try shooting through the triangle though. When his shield goes down slash him. Take the coffee, rinse and repeat.

Hooray you have won! Or have you?

[negen99]

I just downloaded this and it looks amazing. I will surely try to beat this game... awesome.. The menu sounds remind me of x-com... did you ripp them from x-com?

[Xylem101]

Can somebody PLEASE help me find the last biometal, i went over the whole map multiple times but still no luck.
I tried looking through the short descrptions provided but they are so indescriptive.
when i go to the museam the spot that is empty is the one on the bottom left.
Thanks...

PS:The rule for making the final one drop his shield is to attack his main body with the gun.

It's a great game Definitely one of the best Game Maker games. Great graphics and I like the music

The only bad thing, I didn't save the zip file so I lost my save file, thus, I couldn't load my game. I was in Chapter 3: Intent...

This has got to be the longest running topic in the creations forum. And this game definitely deserves it.

I first downloaded this game over a year ago. It remains one of an elite group of games that rise above the "made with Game Maker" moniker that can sometimes garner frowns outside this community. The quality and thought put into this are easily on the level of the classic rpgs/adventure games from the SNES days. While the gameplay, story, sounds, etc. are indeed good, I personally got a lot of enjoyment out of the NPC writing. I can't think of many games (including big budget commercial titles) that consistently provide witty NPC dialog. A true joy with so many games where the writing seems generic.

And remember, life is coffee, and coffee is life!

Is there anything you can do at the collector's hut? When I found him early he was dismissive. Later, when I had just about everything (Rifle 100 shot, upgrade, 20 mine bag, bank account, flask w/mortar ticket) he thought my bomb bag worthless.

Is there a better bag? The guy who sold me the 20-bomb bag wanted 65k for a silk model (unrealistic).

There seem to be a few teasers:

1. Dungeon 1, the room with the red spinning top, central cannon, and chest on an island. No known means of teleport or bridge to island.

2. Southern path, N of NSV leading E through two bombable rocks. A ledge with a chest is unobtainable from either N, W, or via water.

3. NSV island building.

4. Closed building W of northern lodge.
