Played quite a bit now, and got past rescuing Jen (only for her to be kidnapped again), did some flying around in a vehicle thing, which was odd, and faught what could be considered a few boss battles. I’m on level 14-ish now, and the levels do seem to be getting shorter and shorter – just like Amped 3 and Tomb Raider: Legend. Is this a 360 game trend? Had some more play online too. The lag was slightly better …
I’d hoped to fly through a few more levels on this today, but it took over an hour to do just one. This was mainly due to me getting stuck and having no idea where to go for ages, before finally realising the puzzle was somewhat easier than I’d expected and so moved on. The freaky ghost kids are scary, aren’t they? Also played online for a bit, but couldn’t even get into a ranked match, and the lag in …
Rodeo still wouldn’t ask me for his prism shirt he wanted, which is a pain as I’m sure I’ll forget what it’s for and sell it accidently when doing my daily buy-clothes-and-sell-them thing. I’m doing that to get all the clothes I don’t yet have, but I’m sure I’m buying mostly duplicates. Bluebear wanted yet MORE furniture today. I didn’t have any, so had to order some. Kabuki is still here, although I’d half expected him/her to vanish overnight…
It was cheap (from PlayAsia), so I bought it. I do like it, as it’s a bit different to other FPS games, due mainly to the portals and gravity-altering thingies. I’m up to Chapter 7 or so now. I haven’t had an especially difficult time yet, not least because when you die, you don’t actually die – you have this minigame where you shoot down bat things to get health back. As you do. I just wish Tommy (the hero) …
Again, Bluebear was after modern furniture. There’s no space left in her house, though. My wife came over to visit, bringing a prism shirt for me to give to Rodeo, but Rodeo wouldn’t ask me for one! Gah! Instead, he kept telling me he loves me, and wanted to hear me tell him I loved him too. The freak. Not much else was happening in Cheese today. Kabuki is trying to move out again – that’s the third or fourth …
The him/her that is Kabuki is still in Cheese, so he/she didn’t slope off anywhere. It asked me for some clothes today, so I gave it some, and was told I was “actually quite cool”. Well, of course. Also after clothes, were Frobert and Rodeo. Frobert took any old crap I had, but Rodeo still wants the elusive prism shirt. Bluebear wanted even more modern furniture, so I gave her some. Kody is finally better. He’s been ill for weeks, …
Crazy Redd actually had some stuff I wanted to buy today. Picked up a nice painting, although I now realise I have’t checked to see if it’s a fake or not, and also a well, since I hadn’t seen one of them anywhere. Bluebear was after even more furniture today, so I obliged with a modern sofa. Rodeo is still looking for a prism shirt, but I still haven’t seen one in the shop. Kabuki is trying to move out …
I completed scenario 14 with just one minute to spare. Hurrah! That turned out to be the last scenario in the Adventure Story, and so I got the completely hatstand end of game sequence, and then it was all over. Well, all over except for the other scenarios, of course. I tried the Survival scenario, and got a Silver time of 14:36. I’m betting a Gold time was 15:00. That’d be about right. I then had a go on a …
Didn’t play for very long again today – just enough to talk with my animals, make sure no-one had moved out (they hadn’t), give Bluebear even more furniture, buy some clothes I didn’t have already (and gave a shirt to Frobert), and do some weeding. Caught a few insects too, but it seems I already had them all in the museum. Tch.
Here’s a small update. I’ve fixed a few things, added the beginnings of another room, and allowed you to examine some more stuff.
Rather fittingly, the game kind of snowballed to a finish. The mountains got smaller and smaller, the number of things required to be done to progress the story became fewer and fewer, and then, Act V lasted all of about five minutes. But the ending was GENIUS. I won’t spoil it, but it was a Giant Musical Finale. And the very last “thing” you have to do is suitibly epic, complete with epic music and stuff. Aces.
First off, a bit of time travelling. I was out last night so couldn’t visit K.K. Slider then, nor could I “enjoy” the fireworks, so I put the clock back and did that. K.K. played me K.K. Bossa, and I got more roman candles and sparklers from Tortimer. Coming back to today, and Bluebear had had a change of heart and decided to stay. She wanted even more furniture, though. Frobert wanted clothes, which I supplied, and Rodeo is after …
Hmm. I haven’t played this in ages and appear to be lost. I landed on Lava Land (or whatever it is called) and warped back to the last bit I’d got to. There was a locked door, so I backtracked a bit, found a new route, and opened the locked door from the other side. Erm. That means I have no idea where to go. I thought maybe I needed to go back to the Celestial Archive, but there was …
Worked my way through most of (well, a lot of – I think I’m almost there) Act III on this today. I have about half of the mountains unlocked now. The story is nuts. The cutscenes were obviously created when on drugs. The challenges are bizarre. I love this game.
Ripped through a few more levels today, reaching level 14 (which I’ve now found out is the final level). None of them seemed that difficult, although Level 11 was completed with just seconds to spare. Level 14 is a nightmare, however. You have to build a Jewel Exchange and a Dance Club, both of which are easy to do. However, you then need to make $50,000, which just doesn’t seem possible in the given time. I managed to get to …
