Title: Form trivia
Post by: delve on March 13, 2008, 11:20:25 pm
Two trivial or amusing things I've noted.

The fish doesn't stick to walls are creatures, right? Only, it can stick to the black jellyfishes in Mithala. Imagine that. Bubbles don't do anything though. :)

You know those little pod spawning rock nests you find dotted everywhere? Eat one with your beast form. It's quite entertaining to shoot little pods of your own.

I've also noticed that the game tracks your 'ammo' in beast form. When you use up all your shots for your most recently eaten creature, you'll start firing your stockpile from the creature you ate before that.

Cool info, but you got one thing wrong: Fish form bubbles DO do something. Ever tried shooting certain small things such as the small glowing jellies in the abyss? :)

I meant to that specific type of jellyfish. :)

It'd look pretty cool bound to the sun form though.

Oh yeah, you can absorb energy projectiles with the soul form 'burst' move thingy. But you aren't allowed to get hit by them, you have to get close and then right click without hitting them. Doing so heals health.

Just thought I'd throw that in there since this is what the thread is for. ;)

Seems strange that you take health damage from things in spirit form...even if they damaged your soul, why would your body get hurt?

Well, besides that this is all fantasy and people irl can't really leave their body with their soul and spawn somewhere else, but I THINK they are linked or something, just like you can get health back when collected 5 "bullets".

In terms of energy projectiles, they are based on the same energy as souls. They exist in both worlds, but are only vulnerable to another spirit with the appropriate power.

Red crystals = memory crystals
Blue crystals = spirit crystals

More on that kind of stuff in the sequel. (if it ever happens)
