Slight aesthetic issues

Postby Viking » Sun Sep 21, 2008 5:03 pm

Not a big issue here as far as gameplay is concerned, but a couple of little niggles I spotted.

1. When selecting the Tutorial 'Part2: Advanced concepts' it does not highlight the 's' in 'concepts'.
2. The description for The Third Kind says 'One of the ships of the strange the Futurewinians'. No need for the second 'the'.

Right, suppose I'd better go play it a bit more now! :lol:

Around here, we call things like that "Easter Eggs."

Yeah I noticed that "bug" as well..I'm sorta OCD and little things like that would bother me. It doesn't because it's not my game but..I'm just saying.

For the last time, people, it is an "Easter egg," not a bug!

It's an undocumented feature egg sent to us from Zombie Jesus. We should be thankful.

Spelling errors in the game and manual are Easter eggs, which have been hidden there by the developers. What more is there to explain? Or are you one of those overly literal types who take me seriously?

Also, in one of the maps the descriptions contains "Shamen", while in another map it says "Shamans". Can't remember the maps' names though.

Welcome to the Introversion Forums. :D
Some people talk because they have something to say. Others talk because they have to say something.

If what he says and what makes any kind of sense are at odds, chances are it's a joke.

"And we move on now to the historic Introversion Fora. New members are usually expected to go through what locals colloquially refer to as the 'xander gauntlet'. Those that survive the arduous and often mind-destroying experience that is xander will flourish to become fully-fledged members of the community. The unlucky ones will perish under his severe taunting and sarcasm."
