I was able to play this (and watch a few others play it) last week, and holy hell is this game amazing. Great job Roth! Can't wait to get a copy of it are you doing a CIB release or cart only, or possibly both?

That looks awesome, great job man. Are you still working on that dungeon crawler style game as well? Or did you already release that and I somehow missed it?

By the way I love the levitation animation. He's like HOOOAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

Thanks for the positive feedback all : )

@dra600n We are hoping to do CIB.

@GradualAwesomeGamemakerDude That's still in the works, but this game takes place in the same virtual world as Candelabra: Estoscerro. The graphics guy S.C. will be glad to hear you dig the animation : D

Yeah, looks awesome.

-------------------------

My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Ferris pass out at the Let's Play Gaming Expo last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

Oh, my WTB thread is very popular. The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, wastoids, dweebies, Richard craniums - they all adore it. They think it's a righteous thread.
I'd also like to add that I've got my father's gun and a *scorching* price guide for aftermarket Nintendo games.

Heresy!!! This man is a masochist I tell you!! I warn you all: the Creator's sadistic laugh will rape you in your ears and haunt you for days to come, and you won't even be close to conquering the game as he taunts you endlessly!

Despite all this and the fact that Rob is evil, he is also a genius. I got a chance to sample the game at Campout: I don't think a whole team of programmers back in the day could've come up with a game like Rob has done here that's both challenging and engaging with an extremely innovative method of gameplay that's unlike any other game. Comparing the game to Pitfall or Solomon's Key would be a disgrace to Rob's game, not the other way around--it's that good. Honestly. I had to stop watching it being played so I can save some of the fun for myself!! Can't wait till you release this bad boy Rob!

Just to be clear, it was myself and S.C. that made this game! I did the programming, he did graphics, and we both designed. Thanks for the massive compliment though Deniz. Ear-raping laughing is what I excel at though ; )

Based on your acclaim for the game, we'll assume you meant to say that the game is TITS. Balls being the negative. lol The game does look fun though. Good job Roth

I got to play this with the whole crew at the campout, and I was very impressed with the level of detail Rob and S.C. put into making this. Pretty sure we put 3-4 solid hours into this and still didn't beat it.
