Yes, I do! Big Grin I at the very least plan on updating this story once a day. More if I have the time, and base if off of feed-back and what I end up putting into it.

That's great! Yes, I will try it out myself soon, and I will be sure to review it! Big Grin

From what I'm seeing in the screenshots, you've definitely made those rooms seem less empty and more visually appealing, which is good
Seems you also decided to play around with the books on the shelves and mix up that variety a bit
Good job

I may run through it again later just to see it first hand

Hey. Sorry, I probably won't have it up by tonight but I will play it as soon as I can. And i can't use anymore smileys... Smiley overload!

Okay...

Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgQpATlvcgg

Spoiler below!
The map was ok and the jumpscares were pretty good, but this frickin key... That made me really angry :'D And it was a little short. But after all it was good. I hope you make a longer one next time.



RE: FINISHED The Ghost of Dr. Arachnikara - Kaizy - 03-27-2012

Alright, so I replayed it since this is the finalized version

Spoiler below!
A few problems were fixed, mostly the aesthetic one I pointed out, so everything does indeed look nicer. There are a couple problems still rampant through the map. For one, I still have no idea what these randomly placed buttons are doing when pushed, nothing is ever stated on their purpose. Though I pushed the two in the small room that leads to the lab, and I wandered all over the room looking for a key or something I had missed, when the whole time, those two buttons I had pushed had randomly made a 3rd one appear in the dining room, and I had gotten no notification of such, thus leading to unneeded confusion. The library still contains that large unnecessary room. Also, another bug I noticed, when you leave the Lab, you exit from the Library door instead of the Lab door. Im not entirely sure what happened there. After you have the monster encounter in the Dungeon, the rest of the map is fairly uneventful, as no new monsters or scares happen. It basically becomes run here, make this, run there, open that; it makes the half the gameplay seem pointless and boring since there's nothing happening.

Basically my opinion hasn't changed, and your maps will still definitely need work, though it was good to see that you tried to make the map longer.

I see what you mean here. I just may make this one "un-finalized" and work on what you've said here Smile

I can't wait to try your new map! Again, I will try to have this done by tonight! (but no promises...) Big Grin
