Hi I'm new to this forum and totally interested in Dragon Island. As all of you I love the artwork too! Currently I'm busy and can't participate in beta therefore I wanted to ask how long the beta testing will last. I wish all beta testers good luck to not find a lot of bugs. Maybe if beta goes well than we can see the game in a few weeks in the appstore?
Big thanks to all those who applied for beta. Selected Testers have been invited to a private social group.
I fixed off the last important things that were holding up beta tonight. The guys are going to try to put the beta up for download sometime tomorow afternoon.
I love the overall graphic of the game (cause that's an important factor for me to judge a game lol)so count me in if you are ever looking for someone to try out the game!! >_<
I don't know if it's been mentioned in the thread yet, but why are you ripping off a Metal King Slime for one of the monsters? Your other designs seem to be fairly interesting. Example:
There are a couple monsters in the game that are homage monsters to various games. Don't think of it as ripping off, but recognizing the impact of these games in our lives.
True, I like that idea. It's definitely done in a tasteful manner as opposed to a "blatant copy" or something. I'd be interested to see what others you've got in the game that are homages like that. Also some of the ones in the top of the picture look really Shin Megami Tensei-esque, very cool.
Just spent way more hours than I'd like to admit playing this last night, it's pretty great. Definitely still a beta, but they've really got something here.
Not sure if this has been answered yet or not but figured I'd ask since you've been playing it: are the monsters animated or static?
Static. Attack animations involve them moving around and growling a bit. Kinda like Pokemon, but different enough.
