New Magic Stones update on the way…

April 8th, 2007 Posted in magic stones, roleplay games, winter wolves games

Now that I’m finished with TV Station Manager, I’m working again on another Magic Stones quest… it’s coming along nicely, this time the difficulty will be very high since I always get complaint about the fact that is too easy (probably mostly from veteran rpg players).

Since this new update will cost $5, I’m now thinking what to do to make it worthwhile, even if lot of people already said that I had already given away so much free content, that I could just release a new quest and nothing else.

But no, I’m thinking to add the new quest and something more also. I’m still evaluating some ideas:

  1. Very simple: release TWO quest at once instead of one. Probably the most expensive one in term of graphics, but easier since I don’t have to write lot of new code except the new avatars and special attacks.
  2. Improve greatly the Wilderness zone. Adding really tough battles only for specific higher druid levels (so the druid level must increase too).
  3. Revamp the druid system. Add some new skills, like “perks” of Fallout. For example everytime you level, you could choose a new skill. The skills could be anything, from higher mana regeneration, or more powerful avatar of a specific element, etc.

So as you see I have only to choose. I’m thinking to do point 2 right now, even if point 3 isn’t bad. Keep looking the blog and the forums, I’ll post new info soon! :)
