From what I've seen up to now, though I don't know if it was said before :

- Swamps don't deal damage.
- I can't seem to use items in battle. And loading a save resets items to "Herb x5", making it pointless to buy any.
- Magic doesn't work either, though I don't know if I'm actually supposed to have a spell yet...
- "Upgrade" for the Knife is blanked out. I'm pretty sure it was available when I bought it. And yes I have enough gold.
- "Run" never seems to work when it would actually be useful. The encounter rate is low enough to make running away almost useless against weaker monsters.
- I got a game over for staying idle too long on the world map :O
- Crazy_Bastard could give better rewards for his difficulty. In the first area it's the only monster still able to deal over 1 damage (level 4).
- The screen sometimes ends up behind other windows when entering a town. Usually that window is Firefox.
- Loading a save should probably make you resume where you actually saved the game, not always at the beginning.
- Nothing to do but kill the first two bosses since level 5, and still not even close to beat the first one at level 7. No armor probably doesn't help, but this needs harder and more rewarding random encounters.
- Are stat growths completely random? On one "level 2" levelup I got 5 strenght, and when I tried again I got 1 strenght. Can't remember the other stats.

I may be completely lost here, but when I upgrade an item and go to another town, it says I didn't upgrade it, but when I go to do it again, it says I don't have enough gold for the upgrade I needed before I left another town. (to clarify, if I'm a level 2 sword carrier or whatever, then it's like 200 for another upgrade. I can have 100 and go to another town, where an upgrade is 50 or something, and it'll say I don't have enough). Sorry if this has been mentioned before.

No real point as a new world map is being created, but they will.

- I can't seem to use items in battle. And loading a save resets items to "Herb x5", making it pointless to buy any.
Items should work iin battle, is anyone else having that issue? I can easily fix the Herbx5 thing.

- Magic doesn't work either, though I don't know if I'm actually supposed to have a spell yet...
Magic hasn't been programmed yet.

- "Upgrade" for the Knife is blanked out. I'm pretty sure it was available when I bought it. And yes I have enough gold.
That's still an issue I'm working on. Is this upon buying it initially, after a save, or later during play?

- "Run" never seems to work when it would actually be useful. The encounter rate is low enough to make running away almost useless against weaker monsters.
The Run forumla isn't in place yet. Basically it is if you are faster you can run.

- I got a game over for staying idle too long on the world map :O
Never heard that. I may have to try that. The only way a game over should happen is from battle, since there is no call to it on the world map.

- Crazy_Bastard could give better rewards for his difficulty. In the first area it's the only monster still able to deal over 1 damage (level 4).
I need to work on the monsters stats a bit so they actually deal some damage.

- The screen sometimes ends up behind other windows when entering a town. Usually that window is Firefox.
I think this is another easy fix. Should just be a fix to the call of the Town screen.

- Loading a save should probably make you resume where you actually saved the game, not always at the beginning.
Another "easy" fix

- Nothing to do but kill the first two bosses since level 5, and still not even close to beat the first one at level 7. No armor probably doesn't help, but this needs harder and more rewarding random encounters.
Are you saying you can't kill the boss? If so then yea the refer to the monster stats.

- Are stat growths completely random? On one "level 2" levelup I got 5 strenght, and when I tried again I got 1 strenght. Can't remember the other stats.
Yes it is all random. I haven't set the cap, but the cap will be 255.

Knife is the only thing "working" in the most recent build so that is not surprising.

Sorry about the lack of talking from me, I have been distracted by many things.

So as I've been trudging along, I've found that all my files no longer fit in Dropbox anymore. Basically I've run out of space, which kind of hampers my ability to collaborate with the other people I'm working with. Since I'm basically the central hub, I need a little bit more space, but not enough to warrant spending $10 to upgrade Dropbox.

In essence I'd like to ask any and all of those who do not have Dropbox to use this link so I can get more space. You don't have to use it, just sign up and install it then uninstall it if you'd like. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I try to get this thing out of the basement. If you sign up I'll give you the finished game and all updates for free even!

Please help!

Do you have an android phone?

You can use USB to copy 3gb of your photos to the phone's photo folder. Then let it share them back over wifi. They'll give you 3GB of extra space.

For everyone except me... who can't seem to get my drive setup. Seriously Google... what the fuck... everyone gets it except for the IT guy who is being asked every single day about the product?
