Support / Re: Bug with sun temple boss
« on: January 11, 2008, 11:05:48 pm »
Well, I said it played fine on less-than-required specs, but the one exception is the western part of the abyss. Possibly because of the heavy alpha blending, I suppose.
Some random thoughts:
I think this is a bug: I swam west after beating the Evil Priests boss, and never got the instructions on using the Soul Form teleportation ability. I eventually figured it out anyway, but I note the other forms' abilities do get explained.
Is it intentional that I get the "use turtles to travel" message every single time I swim near a turtle, even after I'm well aware what they're for?
As a feature request, I would find it useful to be able to re-order the ingredients in the recipe screen (e.g. drag ingredient X over ingredient Y to swap their places, or something like that). A button for "repeat last recipe" would also be nice - making eight Hand Rolls in a row is kind of annoying.
I believe the door to the Sunken City needs a better hint. "This symbol looks familiar" is really not all that helpful if you've just played past 100+ screens of ocean. I didn't bring Li along because I found him annoying, and I had no idea where it looked familiar from.
Also, perhaps, the Mithalas boss could use some kind of hint. When fighting him, I was completely unaware that it's possible to lift enemies with the song for lifting rocks. Also, the top of that screen has a spoken hint that perhaps I was unprepared and should go back - I got the impression that you needed some kind of powerup to beat him, which turns out to be incorrect. In addition, there are a number of things that can make the boss flash, implying you are hurting him when in fact you're not. E.g. fireballing him, or having him dip his head into that pit with poison clouds.
I just read on this forum that you can use the 1-8 number keys to switch forms? It would be nice if this were explained in-game, it would make fighting e.g. the worm boss a lot easier.
