Tomo2000 60 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Thanks, SolShadow. I recently discovered that the Mega Upload link is invalid, so I have removed it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OverlordMao 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Hey, mind if I help with the game. I'm mainly inactive playing a game (Disgaea 3, if you want to know), but when I'm on, I'll be glad to help with maps or whatever you want me to help with. I'm not the best mapper, but I'm not the worst! Note: Downloading demo. I will edit this to show my review, unless a post is added after this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomo2000 60 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Sure, help is always appreciated. After you play the demo and tell me what you think I can send you the tileset over PM and you can help me design the town "Anchore". I'm afraid I can't send you an unencrypted archive, however. Also, I suggest downloading the new version. I am editing the first post now. Hope Afloat v2.5 features a new zombie, a new town; Ashaven and a vehicle to aquire. Enjoy.

OverlordMao 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 I have yet to play the new demo, but I found this glitch in the demo before the new one (which I'm downloading now) Might want to fix the Sand Bags, and the wall parts, you can walk on all of it. Note: Review will now come after I'm done playing the newest version, but its good so far! Edit: Now that I've played it... another error. Last demo, when I got to the dock, I went to the raft. This demo, when I got to the raft, it said a song was missing... I wasn't able to get much farther then that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomo2000 60 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Hmm... That's odd. I'll try reuploading it and see if that helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OverlordMao 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Just for the record, its something called "Escape_from_Lab" or something like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomo2000 60 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 I think I found the problem. Here is an easy way to fix it so you don't have to download it again: Copy the file named "BossBattle08" and rename it to exactly the name of the song it is missing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OverlordMao 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 You might want to make those red zombies a little slower... it took me 4 tries to NOT get killed by quickly going there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomo2000 60 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 The level Ashaven is supposed to be difficult and the zombies are supposed to be that fast. Because you get a new weapon in the Military base 1, which will be the next level. And there will, also, be a surprise for everyone at the Military base 1, also :D . I also take it you read the easter egg section? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OverlordMao 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 I also take it you read the easter egg section? The whosaywhat now? :huh: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomo2000 60 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 The section called Easter Eggs and other Little Goodies. You can move the box you were behind forwards to block off the zombies. That, or you just read the walkthrough :D . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OverlordMao 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 I knew I could move the box (read that section). I also know that just keeping the box there stopped the Red Zombie from chasing after me. Can't wait for the military base! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomo2000 60 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Any idea what the "surprise" might be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OverlordMao 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Throwable mines? Bombs? Bazooka? NUKES!? No, wait! All of the above and more! or maybe just a zombie suit, those are always fun, I think... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
