| I've got digital download version today and it is awesome game - one of best recently released. While some things are matter of taste I like all the details in the game and it shows a lot of hard work. |

here is what psytronik software had to say the 23.04.09 about knight'n grail...
"It's looking good for a June release - most of the game is now done and a suitably moody soundtrack is being plumbed in as we speak. (The preview of the title tune I heard reminded me of Ghosts 'n' Goblins!"
"I tell you what guys, you are gonna LOVE this game! After some extensive playtesting I can safely say it's one of the most beautifully constructed games I've seen on the C64 in a loooooong time." |

| i think you should have a bonus level where he has a shield and blasts through big fat swamp slugs that pop with nice dirty sounds! give me the level editor and i will help to make it! Great work, reminds me a lot of SpellCast. |

grennouille: If I knew what part of the game to do a preview of, I would.
The game is nearing completion now, so there might not be any point in releasing one, though. :) |

This looks more than just average. This is really good. The sword is totally funtastic (If I had coded it the game would not evolve further, because instead of being productive I'd just look at the swing of the sword all the time)!
It is a good concept that you collect keys and have yourself struggling to remember the dungeon.
And great gfx throughout. Thumbs up!! |

| i found the difficulty well adjusted. enemies pose certain threat i.e. in places where both bats and worms attack the player and we have no opportunity of ducking. not too mention shooting faces ;) it's not frustrating though :) |

| Yeah, this is the stuff I like! It's gonna be a great game, I personally will suggest to make it a little more difficult adding some enemies, or maybe implementing a strict countdown to solve the quest... Anyway, GREAT! |

Very nice preview! keep up the good work ! ;-D
A little suggestion though :
it is possible to move the main character by two pixels instead of one ? I think he is a bit slow actually... |

Very nice indeedio! The graphics are really cool and the gameplay seems very fluent. Can't wait to see this finished. If you manage to get it published, I'll buy it without thinking twice. Yay!
And with reference to Jammer's comment about hero-sword-proportions: don't you make that sword smaller! This is totally über nextgen c64 game gfx! |

| seems really nice. i guess all things like scrolling glitches and so on will dissapear in course of development. i wonder about hero-sword proportions and consequently about the height of his jumps :D have you thought about 2-sprite high main character? ;) apart from that i have only positives in mind - game is challenging enough to await the full version :) btw. asterion's tunes would fit gladly ;) |

Thanks a bunch all!
JackAsser: Hope it works for ordinary MC mode as well, because that is exactly what I'm doing. :)
Except I can have one different color per row in the blocks. The problem has to do with a timing issue that I haven't bothered taking care of yet (actually I have, but I didn't fix it properly).
Oswald: Completely agree with you on the transparancy thing. Had a black sprite behind the main char for a while until I decided it was needed for the enemies...
Will fix that when I get the proper multiplexor in place (got a sprite-splitter thing in there now).

Looks great!!! Please keep up the good work! I see that you have quite severe $d800-update bugs, maybe you already have a solution in hand since this is just a preview. But a suggestion could be f.e. to only allow the same $d800 color for a whole block, this would reduce the number of $d800 writes to only update between the edges of two blocks (this assumes it's bitmap mode ofcourse, dunno if it is though...)
Anyways, good shit! :D |

YAY! :) some nitpicking: I dont like when sprites use their transparent color as black and then the background is not black. Its very disturbing, makes the sprites feel really unreal. secondly, maybe you have plans with that but for now I dont like how the sword jumps from one side to another when changing directions overall it doesnt really belong to the character. I think 1 sprite would be enough.
I loove the rising flames, the boomerang weapon, the map, weapon system and the game machanics all feel right and correct.

smooth!
Scrolling, animations so far.
Nice.
You can start it in vice when using i.e. the AR6-crt and its fastload (which handles long files) when truedrive is being switched on of course...
I wish you the motivation you need to continue and finish this!
