So, a bunch of things here. First, after Ben gave us the very detailed story about the creation of the game and how he was “what I’ll call “upset” over the release”, you try to sell it on this site. Then, you don’t really include any decent pictures, so I’m hoping this is a joke.
I think he’s posted tons of pictures of his copy on-line.
This might sound silly…but is there a game in it ? Many times I hear of vboy’s not turning on..when no game is in the machine..is their a buzzing sound when you flip it on ?
but using a button to back up out of a menu..sometimes i click on something and have to continue the path and I don’t have a chance to back up.
I think the conversation pictures (little blocks with the characters face), could use more color (hah yea..on a vboy i know), but I think the use of black in it would work well. But, I think talking to thunder that there is an image behind it and it wouldn’t work.
Could those pictures also have depth ? they are used quite a bit..but i’m not sure how many characters you’d have to interact with.
And I can’t wait until the save feature is done..helps with checking out different conversations 🙂
Some of the areas are a bit lacking detail (the factory), but I think that’s the conversion process and there isn’t much to do about it without making whole new art 😛
Overall..nothing to complain about and very little suggestion wise 😛 It’s a great story of course, the 3-d is amazing and the music is great. The computer works well and the shooting does also.

Please tell me that it will be able to be sold in cartridge form when it’s released because having a click’n’play style game on VB has always been a great idea! 🙂
Another issue with making it in cart form to sell…is it’s size.
Thunder has done an amazing job of making his demo fit on a flashboy. But, if you think of the length of the story…you can see that the final game will be huge.
32 mbit boards have been developed, but I would have to think that multiple carts would have to be made to fit this game on carts.
I’ve talked to Thunder and he expressed a keen interest in releasing the game in ‘parts’ that can be placed on the flashboy. This is great news, to truly experience the 3-d that thunder has put in this game..it needs to be played on hardware.
