Whoa! By beating the first part of the very first stage a big load of achievements unjustifiably unlocked, I got the achievements for beating act 3 to 7
Glendaal 6 Jul 2022 02:26
And by beating the first stage all the boss related achievements unlocked...
ladynadiad 6 Jul 2022 03:32
Can you please submit a ticket because that sure didn't happen in my testing.
Glendaal 6 Jul 2022 03:33
A ticket for 20 something achievements? Alright, and btw a lot of your new achievements are not working
ladynadiad 6 Jul 2022 03:35
Wait, no need. I figured out what happened. When I was replacing the in game value after some testing I accidentally removed the stage values instead of the bad in game value. Fixing that real quick.
Glendaal 6 Jul 2022 03:45
Alright! I did tickets for a few of your new achievements. No magic on act 2 is not unlocking as well as doing act 3 with level 1 sword. In both cases the achievement pointer stayed there after the prerequisite was done. Also there might be a problem with the doing the entire game with level 1 sword too, because as soon as i get the level 1 sword the achievement pointer disappears (but the one for doing act 1 with level 1 sword stayed there)
Glendaal 6 Jul 2022 03:47
Anyway, gotta go to bed I'm gonna continue this tomorrow. Thanks for the set btw it seems like a good challenge
ladynadiad 6 Jul 2022 03:55
That should take care of all the issues. Just a few dumb typos pretty much that I swear I thought I checked for but clearly I missed a couple.
Jungon 6 Jul 2022 04:39
Best time - full game the leaderboard failed in two attempt here
ladynadiad 6 Jul 2022 04:47
All fixed. Sorry about that, forgot to change the start to the better in game value I found later.
FatFockBarrelBoy 6 Jul 2022 05:12
Way to ruin a perfectly fine set, Infernox.
Jungon 6 Jul 2022 06:36
I have no idea how to deal with this double headed dragon with level 1 sword bullets, any hints? XD
Glendaal 6 Jul 2022 20:14
Created another ticket for the final boss, I got the achievements for the no death run and the speedrun one but not the achievement for beating the final boss
Glendaal 6 Jul 2022 20:30
Oh and by the way all the achievements for doing stages/beating the entire game without using magic cancels when you die and you have to restart the whole game (not happening for the lvl.1 weapon achievements), I doubt this was intended
ladynadiad 7 Jul 2022 09:50
Yes, definitely not intended. I actually completely missed that MP goes down upon dying as well. Added an additional check that lives remains the same when MP goes down to resolve.
Glendaal 8 Jul 2022 00:14
Mastered, the last 2 bosses with level 1 weapons were insanely hard. Thanks for the set and for the quick repairs ladynadiad
psyduck 10 Jul 2022 07:50
Double head dragon trick- flame ring magic!
Emoon 24 Sep 2022 22:19
I'm really glad I've mastered this before the revision. Whether the added challenges compensate for the awfulness of the game or not... is a a mystery best left unsolved.
Sonkay 8 Feb 2023 11:58
Уровни без магии не работают, если использовал хоть раз, достижения отключаются на всю игру
Nabas6545 12 Mar 2023 13:07
This game is actually better than I expected it to be, although the hit detection leaves a lot to be desired at times. Fun revision though, some tough challenges introduced but doable with practice (and a bit of luck at times). I've made some videos covering the no death, one-bullet sword, and speedrun challenges in case anyone needs some help.
