Ah ok. I think it was the first version I downloaded that had random encounters enabled.

Anyway I can't seem to reproduce it now, so it was a one-time event I guess. It's strange that it randomly happened, though >.<

EDIT: By the way, unless this was fixed in the beta, the battle background for the beach is still wrong.

Something I noticed in the last demo that had battles and working NPC's:
-When you attack enemies, there's an earthquake animation that wasn't originally there in the BASIC games nor Reuben 1 Axe.

-There is a very long delay when the enemy/Reuben animations are done and some animations seems to freeze in place during that moment, which looks strange. To increase the pace of battles I would suggest reducing the delay by half or even remove it entirely. Battles should probably at least be at the same speed as in the Axe remake.

-There is a bug with the dog/garden puzzle: Normally, as long as the guy is standing here, you shouldn't even be able to destroy bushes, even after you acquired the bottle. He's protecting his garden, not the bottle

-There is a long white flash after the saving animation. Is that intentional?

-Controls are very confusing, as typical calculator games always use 2nd to confirm and ALPHA to cancel and since ALPHA is often used to access the menu as well, then I have the habit to use Del in this case to try to access the menu, only to end up exiting the game by mistake.

Reuben intensifies

Note that the escape sequence at the end of the game was not grayscale. Basically all gray areas were turned black. It was mainly because the earthquake routine I was using was a 8xp ASM program called with Asm(prgmNAME) so it took a long while to launch compared to an xLIB/Omnicalc command, resulting into massive flicker/slowdown. By the way do you plan to make that sequence 83+/83+SE compatible like in the original game even though it uses some sort of clock? (I think you had 2 minutes to escape and there was no battle)

Probably.

But actually no. The main issue though is that from what I could gather, sub-forums are mainly given if the author needs one, so if you keep everything in 1 topic then you won't even be considered. The game also needs to be very popular, so basically, if Sorunome wants a sub-forum for Reuben Quest: The Lost Mirror then under the current rules he would probably need to rename the game to Final Fantasy: The Lost Mirror.
