Reviews for "Doris and the Dragon: Ep1"

Very good game! Fun, interesting and entertaining dialogue. Found 2 big flaws tho.

1.
While doing the rib-music-puzzle the sound started messing up. It sounded like it was duplicating every few seconds and it made the game lag like hell. I had to restart the game after 3-4 minutes trying to get the puzzle right because it was lagging so bad and the sounds sounded like demonic chants.

2.
When going to the river, there is a way to completely crash the game. When you put your curser slightly above the "River" door, it'll show the curser as the arrow pointing down like the normal door ones but it will say "Stone Man". When you choose to interact nothing major will happen and Doris will just go down to the River. But if you're close enough to the Stone Man and choose to interact, the dialogue will pop up AND Doris will go down to the River. You won't be able to move or do anything when you're down at the river and Doris will have her dialogue above her head. Now you can get out of this if you click on the text of dialogue until the dialogue is over. The second "version" of this is when you do the same as above but before the screen changes to the River, you skip the first line of the dialogue, which is Doris'. Just before you're down at the river you'll see the Stone Woman's dialogue above her head. When that happens, the game is completely broken and nothing works. You can't interact with anything, Doris is skipping everywhere and the game just seems "dead". The only way to get out of this is to refresh the game.

Hope this helps

Hey man. Thanks for the 5 star. This is actually a bug that hasn't been spotted yet so thanks for the detailed report and I'll try to get it fixed when I'm looking at the audio bug.

EDIT: FERRYMAN BUG NOW FIXED. SOUND BUG FIXED. :D

This was TRULY awesome! I got a little concerned at the rib puzzle for 2 reasons: 1. the in-game hint was longer than the answer (and - until I entered it in I was thinking I'd need to use the entirety of the hint) and 2. every once in a while, though I had the right starting note, the game noted it as wrong (but I didn't have to reset the game, just walk away then back again).
I can't WAIT until the next installment!!

Thank you for playing and rating!! It was a bit of an experiment to be honest. It's been great getting feedback about the musical puzzle - we're glad a lot of people seemed to get it and make it to the end.

This is a pretty good game so far, liking the art and story a lot. The animation on the dragon's wings are actually pretty impressive for pixel art, even if it's a little rough around the edges. The actual game play so far hasn't been the best, but I think it's the experience and concept that is the goal in this one. I hope that you'll make a walkthrough for dumb ass players like me, though. I got stuck after getting the third flower from the beam of light area.

ArrogantPixel responds:

We may or may not release an official walk through in the future, but hopefully the community will get there first *HINT*! Thanks for the compliment about the dragon wing animation - it ended up being a lot more frames than intended!! If you can't wait until then, feel free to message us. Thanks for the rating and review!!

Great for a point and click. Works well with touch screen, don't see too many of those anymore.

ArrogantPixel responds:

Wow - we hadn't started testing on touch screen devices which is why this game is disabled for iphone and android at the moment. So, thanks for being the first mobile bug tester and thanks for playing! :D

Cool game but sound bugs pretty often and it's really annoying...Rib quiz was just...dumb. No any single advice, you just need pass it by luck and wasted time. And you need to exam something in your inventory to found out a coin :) Hope second part will be better.

ArrogantPixel responds:

Thanks for the 4 stars. I think you might have overlooked the music box hint. We may provide more hints in an update. You got past it though! Congrats!

EDIT: SOUND BUG NOW FIXED
