Finished. Great stuff, simply great stuff.

[Zappman]

Awesome! I really like the awesome and surreal atmosphere. Very intriguing too.

[NoahSoft]

As promised here is almost nearly the original sketch. There are some minor edits, but this is pretty much the first thing i made for malardy. i made it in 30 minutes as the outline of the game. before i knew what music, plot, or graphics there would be.

Thanks guys!

[BrainySmurfsArchives]

Creative, the sounds you used are atmospheric but the graphics could use some slight work as it is a bit chunky but still. You have some great skills.

[NoahSoft]

should i finish some 3 board game thats half done?

[BrainySmurfsArchives]

SURE!

[Baby Bonnie Hood]

holy shit i'm tripping balls

I can't quite finish it, though. The sokoban puzzle refuses to work properly even though its coding looks completely fine. I have no explanation.

Edit: Never mind, there's a problem after all. After touching the second and third gates, they stop checking. So don't touch them under any circumstances.

Edit 2: Finished. You're... weird.

Yeah, BBB! I noticed that on my playthrough last night, i'm really sorry about that. I hope you still enjoyed it. I'm gonna upload a bug fix for that tonight and shot labels for the plant... as well as the correct charset... i uploaded an old one i amnow realizing

[Baby Bonnie Hood]

...there's a correct charset?

[NoahSoft]

the letter h was edited, and one of the chars on the last few boards was messed up as well.

my speed run record for this game was 8:03!! Can anyone top that?

[NoahSoft]

Finally got around to making a v1.1 Added in some missing chars in the pallete, and char set, and made some parts easier or harder.

can someone add these to the .rar? thx

Hey, what program can I use to open this .rar file on a Mac OSX? (Ignorance!) But I love your stuff, Noah, so for the brief time I'm stopping by, it's important.

Here, try this one, it was the first result http://www.unrarx.com/

[T-Bone]

No screenie preview?

[Bramble]

Never cease to be put in my place, haha. Thank you for the link, though.

[T-Bone]

The font is a bit hard to read. I did like how you had several puzzles throughout, that's something that really lacks in a lot of the games I have played. I really liked your boomerang weapon, is it okay if I use that for a game I'm working on?

[Dr Lancer-X]

That boomerang weapon engine is from the MZX Encyclopedia.

[T-Bone]

Wow old school... thanks for the information lol

[NoahSoft]

Can someone please upload v 1.1 to the Malardy game page? Thank you!

edit: Kuddy did it! Thanks Kuddy! I think Malardy is officially bug free, but I'm sure I'm wrong.

HEY NOAH MAN HERE'S A LOG OF A BUNCH OF CRAP THAT WE MAY HAVE FOUND IN MALARDY, BUT THIS IS FROM THE ORIGINAL, SO HERE, READ, OR NOT, I GUESS?

#mzx said:

[21:53:52] <@Terryn> to contrast, I found three things in malardy
[21:54:03] <@Terryn> nothing game-breaking, and one is really minor
[21:54:25] <Bolan> noah always seems to have at least one game-killer... and I always seem to find ity
[21:54:29] <Bolan> found one
[21:54:39] <lolilover> yeah, the one Bolan stumbled on..
[21:54:46] <@Terryn> which is that
[21:54:50] <lolilover> getting in Sal's way so he can't open the passage for you
[21:54:56] <@Terryn> oh, huh
[21:54:59] <lolilover> makes the game impossible to finish
[21:55:23] <lolilover> I dunno if it was a bug or not but in one part, you could escape into the 'outside' part of the level
[21:55:34] <lolilover> I assume it was a bug since the game doesn't scroll with you when you do that
[21:55:44] <lolilover> but the game is so weird it's honestly hard to tell
[21:56:02] <@Terryn> the stuff I found was a mislinked passage, a board transition where there shouldn't be, and lack of a fade-in for the waiting room death
[21:56:24] <lolilover> totalling 5 bugs, then
[21:56:42] <@Terryn> well, the latter only makes the YOU DIED text not visible, so it's really really minor
[21:56:48] <lolilover> Aha
[21:57:19] <@Terryn> the second might be what you're talking about too
[21:57:28] <lolilover> I don't think so.
[21:57:30] <@Terryn> was it to the graveyard board
[21:58:07] <@Terryn> it seems like that might be on purpose, don't know, need to look again
[21:58:19] <lolilover> Terryn: it was on the push puzzle board
[21:58:30] <@Terryn> oh, definitely not then
[21:58:57] <@Terryn> the mislinked passage was on the top sokoban board, IIRC
[21:59:10] <lolilover> http://sho-in.com/sXfq16VE/screen4.png here
[21:59:26] <@Terryn> I'll give board numbers
[21:59:32] <lolilover> the walls are made up of c00 trees
[21:59:37] <lolilover> but one of them is a space
[22:00:03] <@Terryn> you can transition from 20 to 21 on the right side
[22:00:09] <@Terryn> this is the second issue I described

ALSO SOMETHING I FOUND AFTERWARD IS THAT YOU DON'T LOCKSELF SWITCH BUD DURING TRANSITIONS, WHICH MEANS YOU CAN TRANSITION IN A TRANSITION, AND THAT IS ACTUALLY GAME-BREAKING

CONFIRM/DENY? WHATEVER *PEELS OUT, SPEEDS OFF IN TONS OF SMOKE*

[NoahSoft]

Just how bad is my coding? I guess I should try to make a v1.2 some day!!!

[NoahSoft]

I uploaded a .Zip version for Bramble cause he said he needed one.

[Bramble]

Bahaha, Noah, I love you, you know that, right? : )
