Ghosts of Efeion comming on 11/5/03 !!!

It has been a long 11 months but my game Ghosts of Efeion is almost finished!! Find out more at my website (url="http://"http://www.angelfire.com/biz7/goe/GhostsofEfeion.html")http://www.angelfire...sofEfeion.html.(/url) I stress the fact that it is not done yet but I hope to have it finished by 11/5/03.
The story is about a young explorer named Peter who moves to a new house. He find out that the woods behind his house hide a ancient secret. Peter then goes on a jurney through the woods of Efeion to find out... You just have to find out!

(Edit there was a . in the address...It's fixed now)

Alriiiiight. It's about time someone finished a game around here. 😉

The game sounds pretty fun. I'm just curious why you are making the seperate plugins and not putting them in the game right away. Save memory?

P.S. The screenshots don't work for me. All I get is a bunch of text. Is it my browser?

------------------
I'm not laughing at you,
I'm laughing with you in
mind

This looks very cool. Good job. I'm looking forward to playing.

I am making the plugings after the game because they will add a new part to the Ghosts of Efeion world thus it is like adding a new mini game not part of the main game. DID ANY ONE SEE MY GAME TRAILER IN THE DOWNLOADS PART OF THE SITE if so did you like it?

Sorry

Good job tho

Hi Efeion. I saw the trailer. Pretty neat. Will you be releasing a demo as I would like to try it before I decide to buy it. Cool website, but some of the buttons link to the wrong screens (maybe it is my old web browser messing up though)

Ten dollars seems rather reasonable. Have you found out yet what Ambrosia is charging for licensing fees for using Coldstone for comercial games?

Pedrith 🙂

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

Yes 5 months away is not a finished game but it is a game that will be finished. And yes som of the pictures are from the CD and some are my own. THE STORY plot I have never seen before! Plese tell me the OTHER game that uses this plot so I can find it.

Pedrith. I might make a demo in the future but not right now because I am still figureing out how to let beople buy it off my site. I don't need to pay a fee to AmbrosiaSW because I my self am selling it and not some othere distrubuter like Freeverse or AmbrosiaSW.

Hi Efeion. I found your pages very attractive but there are three things that turn me off. I hope you take this as constructive rather than a put-down. First, the pop-ups for angelfire membership which occur with every click are an annoyance. Second, the spot to link does not line up well with the text. Clicking on "items" got me to "locations" instead. Third, and most important in my mind, is that you should employ a good proof-reader for all of your text. I, for one, would not be inclined to buy a product when the description contains so many errors. On the forum here these are generally overlooked, but on a page promoting a product, this says to me that the promoter either does not care or does not speak the language. A good first impression is necessary to sell yourself or your game.

You have a good start. Let us see a good finish. ~RD

The (url="http://"http://www.evula.org/rduck/")Kingdom of Garendall(/url) sectional map is easily printed from gif format pages.
Find those areas you missed the first time around. Have you been everywhere?

Way to go, Efeion! Yep, when you click on a location picture, we get a png file, which won't read with a browser, so it comes up as text. Gotta make it either jpg or gif.

I don't agree with Stark's comment, but be prepared for some people not wanting your game. Also be prepared for criticism. I'm sure someone on this board will say "sameo sameo" or "boring" to my game, also, but unless the person plays it, he won't really know what he's talking about. Even then, the person may not like it, as people simply like different kinds of games. For instance, as much as I like some games, I get really tired of having to fight as much as I do. So my RPG games will diminish the fighting and rely on story and choice of tasks. And some people won't like that. And I don't care, because I believe that many people will. (Like I find myself intrigued with that new computer-type game that Ambrosia just accepted.) As RD says, though, marketing is very important, so the website really needs to be fixed.

Anyway, congratulations! I'm very happy that you see the end in sight!

Ok

first IM NOT STARK! Hes much better looking then me and better smelling then DP.

second, Its was/is my feeling that $10 was a bit much for this game based on the website content.

third, yes noone inculding me should judge this game till we play it. (with that comment i'll agree)

My point was that just because you hash together Coldstone graphics and d/l the sprites from iDevGames dosent a good game make. one need only play '7th Quest' (the first game released with CGE) to realize this maxim.

Yeah, you're constant, but you look slightly better than you smell...
