    What is the plot to Evil Gnome V?*

    (Wait is this the jeopardy thread :p )

    I reckon that would be copying the leprechaun movies though.

    You forgot about arming them with dangerous weaponry, grooming one to be a thief and enforcing stereotypes...

    My kinda evil gnome.

    It is... Can someone make a picture or a video of that waterfall? Just so we can imagine what to expect :) I am too lazy to start the game for it.

    Well... the WBM tech used in BG2EE (for the waterfall), is used more liberally in this game.

    Any word how we can buy this? Could I buy adventure Y through Amazon using the provided game-code? Reason being I don't want to have to use credit/debit cards, but using a gift-card

    There is also some other new graphic stuff that I shouldn't reveal, i think. Still at the core, we use the same isometric engine.

    That is good news. Someone mentioned that a few things are no longer hard coded. Can you say if the stoneskin all grey look on that list? Because I like Jan safe and I like him stylish.

    I was thinking about Adventure Y trailer which urged me to create this request topic. I'm hoping for the best for this new game, but then it came to me that showing a gameplay on default game speed may be off-putting for "modern" gamers. Even if nothing from that topic will be implemented I think it's a good idea to record gameplay trailers for Adventure Y with higher than default FPS (at least 45), just to make it look more exciting for the audience. It wouldn't be false advertising either as the option to tweak game speed was always there (even if it causes minor technical problems in cutscenes).

    Is Tiax the most important character in Adventure Y ? If not why ?
  • YannirYannir Member Posts: 595
    I think if there's a boxed set, Boo should be in the cover. :smiley:
  • AnduinAnduin Member Posts: 5,745
    I think your onto a winner there with that box set!

    Just my opinion... But if you add laser beams coming out of eyes and fingers (possibly add go faster decals and a jet pack on boo) Plus a scantily clad dwarfette flaunting a big bouncy beard in a raunchy manner (grrr) and I will put this up on my catacomb wall!

    I don't recall seeing it definitely stated anywhere but I can't imagine it wouldn't be. Considering the engine is more or less the same as the other EE's there'd be no reason to not provide the game to a decent sized chunk of the fan base.
    Of course we'll probably have to wait a week or so after the original launch, unless they pre-submit to Apple. (devs: PLEASE pre-submit to Apple. Pretty please?)
