November: Ambermoon

Post by **rusty_shackleford** » October 31st, 2023, 09:11

You're free to use whatever version of Ambermoon you want, but I'll be using the Ambermoon.net rewrite, which you can acquire here: https://github.com/Pyrdacor/Ambermoon.net/releases
It is also available on Amiga if you want to play the original game.

If you're on windows you'll want to grab the `Ambermoon.net-Windows.zip` file, otherwise you know what to grab. If you have any issues getting the game running, just ask in the thread for help.

It begins tomorrow as of posting this thread so GIT READY.

Also, we need a badge for Ambermoon completion if anyone wants to begin working on one.

Advanced or original?

I don't know if rusty has the original in mind, but advanced is not complete in terms of finished episodes. It does add a few things like elemental damage and monster resistances though.

There has been some confusion as to whether advanced or original, you should play Original.

My bet is the trapped chest or people walking into the fireplace without putting out the fire are a lot of first deaths.

My first death has happened

The shortsword I found in the cellar broke in the 1st fight. Is its durability really low or is it just bad luck?

Acrux · Post by **Acrux** » November 1st, 2023, 15:38

Bad luck. Try to carry backup weapons, especially for low level fighters.

Had the dagger and the knives, but the damage output is pretty paltry even for the dagger. Will restart.

Works well on steam deck.

So where's the light switch for the cellar?

Torch.

I've examined or grabbed every every torch and candle I could see. Do need to get a stick and set it on fire?

Just go to inventory and 'use item'
You can also find lanterns in the house which last a lot longer

Second death was to this xD

Why the fuck is the old man even keeps a booby-trapped chest next to him? He wants his grandson to die?

Immersion ruined.

Grandad was like "Hippity hoppity, away from my property" and I died to a fireball. Rusty's favorite game. What's with none of the sconces giving me torches? You telling me I need to pick these chests for a torch?

I made it past the fire, thankfully rpg autism has me clicking interact on EVERYTHING. What got me was the BIG FUCKING BOSS SPIDER in the tutorial dungeon, i'm guessing your supposed to tackle him once you have a party. Or some levels and better gear

Third death was to Well Lizard. Fourth death was to Poison Spider. No more death posts.

How many horrible ways to die in grandpa's house?

I found a companion and robbed him of his gear. First game I've played like this. Don't forget to crank up the combat speed in the options, it takes forever if you don't.

maidenhaver · Post by **maidenhaver** » November 2nd, 2023, 02:38

Is there a grid mode for dungeons? Controls feel like a steering a car in a racing game.

Acrux · Post by **Acrux** » November 2nd, 2023, 03:04

You can use the keypad.

maidenhaver · Post by **maidenhaver** » November 2nd, 2023, 03:24

No, I don't have a computer or keyboard with me.

Acrux · Post by **Acrux** » November 2nd, 2023, 03:36

Oh, I forgot you're one of those.
