Wow! Pictures and a trailer and everything and not one response yet?? What a crime. Must simply be getting overlooked.

I should have some time to play the game tomorrow or the next day. I've bookmarked a bunch of levels and I don't know how many I can get to and still have time to work on my own, but this looks incredible. I will definitely try!

OK, I gave this a try with a Fellow Gadder, and here's what we experienced:

The first time out, the boat sank when the water rose. Not much we could do. Had to restart. Might wanna look into that.

Second time in was better. The visuals are excellent, once you get into the meat of the level.

Wasn't sure about the God of War moment where human sacrifice was required... A huge moral choice to offer a character, story-wise, right off the bat. But that's just me nitpicking.

Biggest concern is the tram. We activated it and it left without us. We had to quit at that point.

Take a look at those technical issues, and I'll be happy to give it another play. It has the potential for 5 stars, but as it is I gave it 4 because the visuals were a bit better than a 3 star level, and I know you can fix those bugs.

Hmm. Those were some strange glitches that we, in all our other reviews and testing never experienced, the Tram is understandable and I'll get to that in a bit, but as soon as I read that the boat sank I almost immediately thought of a hypothesis that never occurred to me until that moment. The Anchor is on a toggle switch and is half the reason behind the boat moving, the boat will only move when the anchor is up, so what I think happened is that when you triggered the water, you may have accidentally lowered the anchor again and thus you were trapped in a segment of the level that is at the end. I tested it out and I got trapped as well. I already have the solution in the logic and so I'll fix that momentarily. Sorry for this little bug, but it really and truly was unheard of in the history of our level (from those who left comments and reviews).

As for the sacrificial moral choice, it is a heavy choice but think of it like this, he's in a prison, he must be there for a reason, and I'm not saying that one life is worth more than that of another (I'm very altruistic lol) but you're trapped in a cave, no way out, only one way to go. And also, remember this society is most probably very ancient and for most ancient societies, sacrifices were not only revered, but endeared for survival and to praise supernatural influences. (hint hint to the rest of the series lol)

And lastly the Tram. This problem is due mainly to the fact that you had more than one person in your play experience. The switch to move the tram is on a sensor switch and the thing is, you have a certain amount of time from when it sees you to board the tram. The switch is on require all but I'll think of a better way of working it, possibly a grab switch. And I think you may have given up on the tram a bit too easily lol, There is a re-spawn that you might not have seen in the tram that activates as soon as you get into that segment of the cave. And if my theory is correct, if you respawned, you would have ended up in the tram, but it is a bug none-the-less. I'll work on these right now and tell you when I'm done, Thank You for the review and the play, and we hope you enjoyed it

Maybe we did give up a bit easily. After the first glitch, we were getting impatient, and that's on us; Not you.

Anyway, looking forward to playing it after the fix!
