I am dying to try out this RPG, the only thing holding me back is the lack of high-res, and i think there is a new version in the works that will have high-res, does anybody know when this will come out, i thought it was scheduled for december?
thank

Does a game have to be hi-res to qualify it as "worth having a look"? The game is a great RPG with a lot of depth, playability and replay value. The fact that it is lo-res (160x160) has little impact on gameplay. (I hope I don't sound sarcastic, but I am asking a question which has persisted for years - "Does better graphics deliver a better quality game?" - personally, I don't believe so...)

Personally, I would rate Aldons Crossing as better than DragonFire.

Agreed. I tried Dragon Fire before Aldons Crossing and end up buying Aldons Crossing. It's so rich in graphics and smooth scrooling (someone on another thread mentioned about moving diagnally ) that you quickly dismissed the need for it to be hires.

Get it, you won't be disappointed

Oh, i really want it, however, if i download it, and a month later a high-res version comes out, i wouldnt be very happy cause i would have enjoyed it more if i had it high res, and if i play it again i would already know the story, howver if a high-res version is not planned for another 6 months or so, well then i am going to go get it.

I'm not giong to speak for the dev team about release dates but you should know that one of the developers was recently in hospital and is now home recovering so they are prob. behind on the schedule.
HiRes or not This is simply the best RPG for the palm if you want to wait to play it in HiRes You are missing out a great game you could be playing now.

Trp

Oh ok, do you know if the highres version of aldons crossing will have the same story and characters and such, or will it be a whole different storyline?

Hi Trp,

Just though I would try to answer your questions or concerns.

Yes, a Hi-Res version is in the works. Yes it will be the same game (though we almost always add something neweach time we do a release).

Yes, you will be able to upgrade to the Hi-Res version for free. All of our updates are free.

I will be more than happy to answer any other question or concer.

Thank you also for the great and nice comments on our game.

Woohoo! Hi-res would be nice. It would add to the enjoyment of an otherwise great game.
But the fun is trying to level up the characters and beating the mini-adventures .... and avoiding getting caught by my bosses at work! (That is an adventure in itself!!!)

Sweet! Would like to see a Hi-Res version for Aldon's Crossing! I love this RPG! Anyone have any finished MOD's for it? I have Ox-Bow but I found that quite easy. :P

yorrick, its important to look every now and then away from the PDA screen and look for example to manuals or the computer screen so that it looks like you doin some real important business stuff (and dont forget to use the pause mode during interrupting gaming).

Trp

Oh ok, if it is planned, i think i will wait for the highres, so i will be able to enjoy the whole game more.

Well, I think you should still try the game. I bet you'll love it once you start playing it.

When approximately will be the release of the Hi-Res version?

Illusions - don't fret about the date of hi-res. Try the lo-res game. You'll find yourself getting hooked into it.
When Hi-res comes out, registered users are eligable for free upgrades to this (unless they have changed thier policy...)
"Your enjoyment can be upgraded to twice the fun" (from a Japlish advert...)
