      When you get the bugs worked out, don't forget to upload it to the (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/games/ferazel/addons.html")Ferazel Add-On files(/url) area -- spamman's world is up there already.

      Do you want me to upload it (when I get the bugs fixed) even though it's only one level so far?

      I plan to have seven underground levels, not to mention fire, rain, purple, woods, sand, mountian, and ice levels.

      Dunno why he does that. He'll get it right with practice, I hope 🙂

      ------------------
      I find it disturbing that Bush, a man with one-and-a-half terms of being a governor in a state that doesn't give that official any real duties, can consider himself qualified to be President. Is there a solution?
      VOTE GORE.

    • Great level!

      I can tell you three easy things right now that will fix major problems.

      1. Change extra level info INFO(27) from a 1 to a 0. This will get rid of the chapter splash screen that nagged me for so very long.

      2. Change level info INFO(0) from whatever it is to 0. I hate this; it's supposed to control level brightness. When Ben uses it, it looks great. When we use it, we get that weird staticy over-bright effect. Not fair.

      3. Don't forget dem save points...it's a hard level. 🙂

    • Bug-A-Boos:

      1. The Lighting thing. Spamguy already talked about it, but it is hella annoying.
      2. The guy who gives you the platium key and heath potion - if you talk to him again, you get ANOTHER key and potion, so you can get as many as you want for free.
      3. The guard. IF you talk to him a second time, a blank box shows up, and goes away.
      4. There was one more, but i forget it. 😉 ::Goes looking for it again::

    • All these free gifts remind me of something. Spamguy, bob will give you an in definate amount of magic potions. What? Did the guy who lived there before have a stockpile of these or something? 😉

      Hehe...it's not a major concern right now, because I'm trying to expand as fast as possible into other levels. It will be awhile before you see a new version of BN, because I'm doing two levels at once, and both are giving me trouble.
      Level 4, East: Mr. Man's Mean Bastard Level
      Level 5, West: Well-Paid in Newfoundland

      Yeah, I know. That will be fixed also.

      The left part of the level is the Mac Fanactics's fort, and the door can only be opened from the inside, so everyone inside trusts everyone else inside.

      I guess I should have Ferazel say "I am going to try to kill Bill Gates, may I have the key for the door?".

      The conversation bugs will also be fixed before the next major release.

      BTW, George doesn't remember you either, he'll give you as many health potions as you want.
      Or did you not find Geroge... 🙂

      I'm stupid, but, where can I download the fixed one? The origonal link gave me the old one...

      Don't worry, you're not stupid.
      I haven't uploaded the new one yet.

      I'm almost done with some new levels, I don't plan to upload the fixed level until they're done.

      Well..the bugs don't stop you from completing the level. I really liked your level because the secrets were quite hard to find. I searched quite awhile for the final one before I discovered it strictly by accident. Really good job, you did some clever things. 🙂 I want to mention a couple that I found particularly nasty, but I don't want to ruin it for anyone else.

      You mean, you'll put down your rock and I'll put down my sword and we'll try and kill each other like civilized people?

    • This level fooled me several times. It really makes you slap your head. The original levels don't have that head-slapping quality I like...no offense, Ben. 😉
