OK everybody time to download the fixed version from the files
section. It's taken me almost 4 hours to post it here because my
computer has been insanely misbehaving itself this morning.
Anyway here's the lowdown on those nasty bugs. The first one being
able to jump onto the roof in the first MOLE VILLAGE screen, I still
don't know exactly how that happened. But either way that was quite
minor compared to the other 3 that were found. The second and pretty
major bug the infinite death scene in "The Scumbags Lost Girocheques"
was some stupidity of my own and is evident of the fact that I had to
shift a few of my MM screens around whilst making this section of the
game. I think I lost some work around about here, so I'm thinking
I've rebuilt the room and forgot to move the portal position when I'd
finished. Obviously I'd playtested this room before the crash
otherwise I would have noticed this hahahaha! The Third and probably
most bizarre the teleporter from "Pac in Time or Something taking you
straight to "ORDER within Chaos" I honestly have NO idea how that
happened. It puzzles me beyond my means. I thought to myself when
reading the posts how the hell did they get that far so soon? Because
I'm sure some of those MM screens are quite evil by my standards.
Finally the Quazimodo in "Quazi-Mojo" It did move, but I rearranged
the ropes during a playtest when I found that one of the jumps was
actually a block too long and you couldn't clear it. so I rearranged
the room (it still moved). I did it again though and deleted
everything I guess I must have messed the order up because when I
played it this morning I noticed that he was stuck (although I'm sure
I played it since the changes). Obviously I musn't have? Anyway the
game should behave how it's supposed to now (hopefully) I pray I've
ironed all the glitches out, but if you all find any more feel free
to tell me.
Well there we have it, also once again thanks for the feedback, apart
from the news of the glitches my ego still feels intact hahaha.
Cheers
