The Drunken Lizard Pub

Nice work Basilisk mob. I nice eco friendly colour scheme =)

Just completed it at 13 although as soon as I place the Crux I hit 14. Very enjoyable although I do agree the ending came up way before I was expecting it to.

Most rivers in the world flow South, it's unusual to see it flowing theoretically "up"

hehe... that's so cute.

Ahh yes.. of course.. this is the start of the Eschalon journey, so naturally exploration and introductions are the key! Great! I should have realised this because it has indeed been mentioned many times in interviews etc. I love the fact that you have made this 'blank canvas' approach central to ...

Hi BWrangler and Co,

I have searched through the forums for a similar topic to this but it eludes me, if there is one at all (and feel free to dump this into the 'questions' thread if you see fit).

I was wondering if we could get a little info regarding the lore that the game/s are based on. Even ...

WOW!

My goodness.. this is way beyond my expectations! I have been dabbling with Geneforge and Avernum for a bit of late, and was half expecting Book One to be similar in technical prowess to them, but man those visuals are cracking! The snazzy UI animations are like Baldur's Gate meets Mac OSX ...

I think the little serifs are a nice nod to the old RPGs without being over-blown. You look at the classics and they were filled with serif-heavy "medieval" fonts that were a real pain to read.

Hehe, yes you are right. I stumbled upon this beauty a few weeks ago. I'm so gonna have to use it ...

The future is widescreen, if only because of all the TFTs being churned out for TVs, IMO.

Very likely. It's amazing how something as mundane as an aspect ratio can toy with the emotions of the consuming masses. Even now I tend to look back at 3:4 non-widescreen monitors (and definately TV's) and ...

The serifs put me off for a little while, but all in all the Fontin style is growing on me. Hard to tell when not viewing the live application, but I think it's looking nice.

Greetings. This may be a bit of a lame question but I am enthusiastic about it so will ask anyway. I am very impressed by the font you have chosen, being a keen 'screen font' collector, so I must ask: did you search for and trial many font to find this one (and are you at liberty to reveal it's ...

Hmm.. I tried an Enya CD my mother had. Pretty nice =)

It's a bit unorthadox, but when playing The Burning Crusade I have been listening to the latest Cafe Del Mar v10. It's not very "fantasy" but it has some great crisp and open soundscapes. Especially the intro track "Firewire".. which I had ...

We thought about doing that, just extending the game screen for larger monitors. One of the big obstacles in that is things really start slowing down when we pump a lot of sprites onto the screen, and a larger the play area, the more sprites we have to draw to fill it.

That makes sense, although ...

I was pleasantly surprised with Civilisation 3 when I upgraded from my old 800x600 imac to a 17" LCD on a new G5, in that, like a website, the play area just continued out to accomodate the screen, so essentially I could see more of the game board, while the UI at the top and bottom simply moved it ...

In the long run it does start to become an annoyance when you simply need to keep the character fed so that they don't die (I'm thinking pet feeding in WoW). Definately adds a bit more fun when food or water has magical or healing properties.

What I'd really like to see if the dining process ...
