Astral has unleashed Matoya upon the unsuspecting masses of the Dink Community. In it, you get to figure out what to do because the great thinker Dink Smallwood... forgot. Yep, the King sent Dink on a mission, but Dink forgot what it was. Hopefully you'll be able to help him, or he'll be running all over the place and talking to trees, being insane with forgetfulness.

Ok now I need sujection about part 2...

should I made a complety new dmod?
Or continue the *story* in this one?

as for par 2 I plan of doing a some side quest... Like.
-Finding the home of the little star!
-a little hide and seek game!
-other stuff that I dint think of now

As for the quest itself....
*spoliers*
Dink after beating the gate keeper (the end boss of part one)A gate to the astral world open (I would need some kind of portal grafic).
Inside ... well I dont know yet...
The only thing I know is that in the end dink will fight *the Master* and there gonna be a sad ending (I dont explain why )

If you have sujection tell me (I need it!) lol

And scratcher for the "unbalanced" enemy are you talking about the bonca?

PS:Check my first post too please!

i finally got around to playing the mod, not bad. if you say you're going to release a patch, then i'll wait til then to review it. yes, i think you should just continue the story and make the dmod quite a bit longer and with many new things, so that the people that have already played it won't mind seeing something new. there are portal graphics available in the development section, if you need those.

Any fool can use a computer. Many do. 
I would need some kind of portal grafic

There happens to be a portal graphics pack here at The Dink Network. I dunno if it's what you are looking for but you can download it here.

*I Deleted the long script*

And for the portal i would like something less hi-teck (it a portal to the astral world not to the future lol)

yeah.

I think it'd be cool if you continued the story from where it's left... and made it deeper.

Did someone try my new script for the end boss?
(maybe I'm asking stuff too fast...)

As for the part2.. I'll make it like scratcher said so... *I hope* that make my game better!

and scratcher... how can i make the monster more balanced?
-bonca giving less xp and hitting less hard?

because i think slim and pillbug are ok and for the boss... try using the long sword before fighting the boss in the cave and the claw-sword for the end boss... it make thing less hard.

yeah. It's a little too much that you die immediately when a bonca hits you. it'd also help if Dink had more life. and magic of course. and a light sword along with some mega bombs that blow up the entire screen.... *hew hew hew*

Sinse it only the part one! The light sword and *magic* are not here yet...
but in part 2, sure!
*spolier* Did you find the secret(not so secret)island? *end/spolier*

Bonca with 18atk ,giving 500xp ,With more hp (or not)!
It ok?

PS:I dont give dink too much life because it only the first part of the advanture...
In the next world dink will find more!
PPS:The only two thing I need to do before relasing the patch is modifing the bonca and Know if my new boss script work!
(I cant wait that why I keep asking it lol)

Sometime when you kill it you dont see what the boss say but dink yes (it look very strange)

The bug before was because dink was freezing after kiling the boss lol

I suppose, at least it's much better now.
huh? secret island? no.

I didn't test your new boss script, the first one worked fine when I was playing... but have some patience dude, it's not like most dinkers weren't lazy.

lol

ok the script seem to not work only when there already a save-slot used and you begin a new game but with my new one it seem to work!
(I just want to be sure that another one test it to be very sure it work perfecly)

If you find the island it make the game more balanced (you dont have to lvl too much (8-9max for the end boss)

PS: do you thing my new setting are ok for the bonca?
