Awesome, congrats on finishing up the game, can’t wait to play! I’m getting an error upon loading my old save, though:
“Script ‘interpreter 2′ line 229: NoMethodError occurred
undefined method ‘unlock’ for nil:NilClass”
The game then closes out. Is there any fix or anything available, or will I have to restart?
Damn! That’s so weird, as imported saves were working fine in beta. Would you mind emailing me your save game and I’ll check it out? blue.oblivion@gmail.com
I’m really lost at the orkan mansion. Is there a boss or something I have to find? I went through the mirrors, also broke the shards (i guess it’s shards) but still nothing.
There’s a boss you have to fight. Have you found all six seals? If you’re missing a couple, there’s a “trick” to the manor. Is there anything that changes when the music box starts playing?
I found the missing seal, then finished the game. Very good. Any ETA on the next chapter?
I just found this game out and played part I and II through almost non-stop. The game is amazing! I wish it would spread around more, I had to dig through a lot of games before finding a gem like this.
Thanks a lot for playing! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Act III should be out in the next couple weeks. Out of curiosity, how did you find the game?
I first saw it in rpgmaker.net but I was playing other games at the time. I tried it out after seeing it at Quintessence’s forums. Glad I did.
