Yes. What is done by a man, can be undone by a man.

You can restore someones virginity?

Yes! There is already a surgery for this.

 

[Rayder]

Weird, so is there any AP?

None that I can see, but the CycloDS does have an auto-AP engine, so I can't be absolutely sure. All I know is it's working on my end.

Should appear within 24 hours......

Well when I get it I will test it on both M3 Real with the latest firmware and itouchDS
Unless I get it when I am in school, then I will have to wait >.

I hope not! I will test it on Acekard, Supercard DS One and Ezflash V plus.

Well this game doesn't look like it would be the type to do that, it looks too underground to need one.
Then again I said the same thing about Moon and that had one, so lets keep our fingers crossed.

I'll tell ya one thing, when you load it, it sits at black screens for a stupid long time, but it works if you wait. The original cart does this too.

Hmmm, well at least it works, right?

@Rayder
What about the controls? Is it like a typical FPS DS game?

Thanks.

It's not an FPS. It's a first person dungeon crawler.

I know. I am talking about the controls. I want to know if this game will use the stylus exactly like a typical FPS DS game.

No you are both wrong!
looking at the trailer you can shoot magic or something so it would be... unique

...

You can't shoot magic in a first person dungeon crawler?

@guild
eh i was more talking about the hackin' n' wackin' n' smackin' you mentioned..
so the genre would be a first person role playing game like arena or daggerfall

 

[Gobnoblin]

i think the genre is fpbt... first person book translation.... lol anyways it looks to be good i remember playing through this way back in the day.... be neat if this came off well and they ended up running through the series lol.... i was always fond of deathtrap dungeon.... hmmm i think someone did that for one console or another.... /me goes to look for deathtrap dungeon

 

[f3ar000]

@Gobnoblin
the ds would be better if we had some more games like that lone wolf homebrew and games like this
the dark spire was ok but it was lacking in a few things

 

[ImpulsE69]

This reminds me more of the old game Hexxen..or Heretic (I forget which was the sequel)..

 

[Rayder]

OK, the controls.....

You look around and move with the dpad and buttons. (reversible for left handers) You can also use the stylus to look around too, your choice.

The stylus is also for your menu stuff and "shooting off spell scrolls".

Left and right shoulder buttons are used for melee weapon attacks. Two types....one for each button. Or you can tap the sword on the touchscreen. Again, your choice.

The games auto-saves, but there are save orbs around for you to save at too.

I've never played games like Hexen, but from what I did see of games like that, it's like them, more or less.


I like the atmosphere of the game. If anything I'm anti-claustrophobic, I like crawling through the dungeons. The dudes at 1up and Nintendo Power must have been on crack, because this seems like a GREAT game to me. From the little I've played of it so far I'd put it in the 7 to 9 out of 10 range. Time will tell how good it actually is as I play it.

I'm currently stuck trying to beat these 4 red orcs, they are almost instantly kicking my butt. Gonna have to grind a bit I guess.


Also, when I bought it, it came with the "choose your own adventure" book that it's based on. Cool! I can play through the book now too.

Might want to bump up the brightness level one notch from your normal setting too......kinda dark.

Doesn't seem to remember when you set it to left hand controls......makes you set it again every time you boot.

Woooow! I am very excited for this game now. I mean.. daaaamn! This game looks sooo good for me because I love this genre.

I can't wait to play it.

Oh and I am a bit curious about the book. Maybe I will use my money that I was saving for L4D 2.

@edit: There is only one thing that this game needs right now: Good difficulty

Also, Thank you, Rayder! Your post was very helpful. I am really happy to see that 1up and Nintendo Power are wrong
