Hard work did pass and finally, the Fairy Tale is finally entering its final stage...
I'm currently working on the Final Dungeon in which the final battle of the game will take place. I'm also working on the final bonus stages and some cosmetic features, when that's all finished the game as a whole is ready, then I only need to do some bug-searching-fixing, and I hope to release the game by then...
Now I'm also looking for good publishers, I already know about Idigicon (if they still do that), but are there more companies who publish games created in Blitz, and what's important for me to know is do they directly buy the product for a large ammount of money, or do I receive money every time they sell a copy? I've created many games before, but never published one, so that's why I need to ask these questions, especially since I can get in law trouble if I receive too much cash in once, I'm unemployed you know...
Another thing you can do me a favor with is taking a look at The Official Documentation
I want you to keep a few things in mind when reading it.
- MicroSoft Explorer REFUSES to load the right fonts. When I access them with Explorer from my harddisk, it works fine.
- Netscape Communicator 7.1 seems to show the documentation best, but ignores a few links for mysterious reasons.
- Ignore those Netscape banners, it's simply the price for putting this on a free Netscape account. The version I'll include on the CD-ROM won't suffer from this!
If you want to help me on this documentation. I've the bad habit of wanting to finish things way too fast, with as a result many grammar and spelling errors, plus that English is not my first language. But even in Dutch I make much silly errors because of wanting to be too fast... If you can point out really stupid errors, I didn't see I'd be really happy...
And if you are bored, I got a nice thing for you to do if you speak a language that I don't. You can make me really happy when you translate this in your language. I only must note that the copyright part can better be left in English. That goes only for the copyright part. It's because that section is too vulnerable for changing in general, and it may even be I need to change a few rules in negotiation with my publisher... Keep the lay-out the same please... So if you are bored, you got a nice thing to break the boredom, it took me 3 days to write this documentation, so if translating takes you as long as that I took away 3 days of boredom. Aren't you grateful to me? I'd be grateful to you if you do :P
I can note that Grisu sent me a way to make the message boxes more fancier. I couldn't copy his code, since the dataformat the Fairy Tale uses, is much diffrent from the format he used in his code, but I did take over a few parts from it, coded my own way around a few points to get the same effect. Thank you very much for that contribution, Grisu, it also gave me some important leads for my next project, which is gonna be "Power Of The Rings III"
So far my story on the things for today, guys... :)
