ohboyohboyohboyohboy! if its half as good as the series then it'll be an awesomely awesome game! you rock jazza :D

If it's as good as it looks then whoah. And I've never played Diablo 2, you really shouldn't be worried by idiots.

MindChamber is very strict when it comes to copying in art... he told someone off for using a style similar to Dan Paladin's, I believe.

It's lookin' pretty slick. Is it goin' to follow the Pal. storyline to every detial or are ya goin' to add some goodies. Like a secret endin' or somethin'?

Paladin is an awesome series and the artwork, as always, is top notch.
The Diablo style bar to me is a plus because it has a HUGE following and alot of people relate to that set up. It will make any playing adjustments that much easier and allow people to get into the game quicker, rather than having a large learning curve. Also, its a very straight forward and simplistic system and even a new comer will be able to pick it up quickly.
Looks great so far man. Dont worry about anyone griping about the style or you jacking the Diablo bar. The thing is you cannot please everyone and there is always going to be at least one person that flames or hates you for whatever you do.
Good luck on this project and hope to see it out by xmas.

PS...why so much hate on the boards for Mindchamber? Sheesh.

ok, its a couple of weeks since i started this post so ill give an update

the game is coming along SPECTACULARLY
really, all the spells are in working order, we got the dogs finished, and ive sent my coder the clips for the undead characters, its REALLY EXCITING!!!
honestly, gameplay is fast paced, easy to play, fun and for me, addictive

a couple of fun facts about what the game will consist of:

8 acts

1- training
2- ascending
3- fighting (giant boss)
4-travelling
5-catacombs (secret boss not in series)
6-undead father on rooftop
7-radiel on roof, then to dragon in sky battle
8- kognor

in ALL of these acts u will be fighting hordes of enemeis (except the last big boss ones obviously)
trust me, lots of action, lots of time to spend being paladin, and minimovies between every act

im wokring 7-8 hours a day to bring you guys total entertainment.
ALSO there will be unlockable cheats you can earny by cracking, meaning every time you crack you earn a new cheat, making when you play next even more fun!

wow nice, really nice for you :P Can't wait to play it :D

*squeak*

HOLY BANANA!

This looks awesome. I loved your series and just found out about you making this game. So far it looks pretty damn promising. Really terrific.

Oh and thank you spending so much time everyday in finishing this for us.

Damn sexy. That looks beautiful. Don't take too long on it ;D

I'm so excited the graphics look good and it looks promising cant wait till its done.

been working on the PALADIN game for roughly a week now
thought I'd show a screenie and get some feedback from the layout.

WOW!
=D

I can't wait to play it!

yeah the graphics are detailed but the only problem is the game must be on medium quality minimum coz the animations, sounds, speed and detail all lag things. its not too bad now, but im on 2 gig of ram and im scared as to the leggyness with big bosses and flight systems

either way, its fun to play and we'll optimise as much as possible

thinking of releasing a gameplay trailer on youtube in a month or so

looks awesome

sorry for being offensive but everyone who are saying to make this game quick are idiots. y would he rush it, that will make the game not as good. so its best if he keeps going at the rate hes going at right now!

Wow, 6 to 7 hours is a lot more work then most flash people put in per day. It's lookin' real sweet so far. I hope people will appreciate the hard work you put into this.

whachya think of the cheat system idea?

"there will be unlockable cheats you can earny by cracking, meaning every time you crack you earn a new cheat, making when you play next even more fun"

Looks awesome Jazaa, as for the cheats sounds good to me. Personally, maybe make them "achievements", beat the game with x lives left, don't die once, beat this boss in less them x minutes, stuff like that :) that way you gotta EARN the cheats.

As for the game-play you showed me a some of the code and as a programmer I can tell everyone here that what I read was very well done code, the game-play will be equally on par with the graphics from what I've looked at. You should be excited,these stages of making a game make the developer feel best, besides releasing it and reading reviews :). Keep it up, looks awesome.

FIRST BOSS:

Undead Giant

note, the auron you see will not be what he looks like when he faces the giant, he will be clothed in black and wield the sword of ancients, as is in episode 2-3

leet.. its like teh hulkzors

Meh, poke the boss with your wood sword, GO!!!

really nice looking, you guys should have a nice engine by now hum?

yeah fo sure, its really come along well. still wokring an the flight system, but we've got most of the character/background movement, and enemie AI done for the most part.

there will be a total of 6 bosses in this game

sweet, nice to know that the game is moving fast. I just hope there wont be too much troubles with the lag... flash can be a bitch sometimes hehe. It would be so nice if they could release a flash player usign graphics cards.

It looks awesome, I wouldn't give an unfair review for borrowing the health bar idea, but I'm not sure about the NG public. I think it's better to play it safe.
