Hello there!
I guess you came here asking: Who the hell are you?
Well, I'm a Hungarian guy who likes video games from past to present, and has an interest in old computer and console hardware.
I also study history at a university. Mostly interested in Hungarian and Oriental history.
I speak English well, except for grammar. I suck at that. Unsurprisingly, I speak Hungarian at a native level, and also understand a bit of basic German. I also studied Latin for a while, but I barely remember anything about it.
I enjoy platformers, both Eastern and Western RPGs, FPS games, visual novels - and some others from time-to-time like point-n-click adventure games.
I'm also quite introverted and kind of suck at social stuff.
I have a tendency to make sarcastic remarks or terrible puns at some points.
I also like to test stuff, so if you have say, a beta of a D-Mod or a game feel free to send it to me.
I have a tendency to be a cynic and pessimist.
Dink is an old childhood favourite game of mine. I still play D-Mods occasionally. Not that much today because you know... the lack of new releases.
I often tend to be depressed and have mood swings. Good luck for those who know me...
I guess that's all that comes to mind right now.

Hi!
I tested the DMOD on on FreeDink (development version).
First, I noticed there are no dots at the end of sentences. It's not a major thing, but it's very noticeable for me.
I'm not the biggest fan of the turn based combat (I just feel such systems are just not for Dink), but it's no bad by all means, and one of the core elements of the DMOD.
Knightley has a different colour in combat: black, but he's blue everywhere else.
As for the mapping: Great idea to use these green tiles in the village. It looks good, and I don't think I have seen other DMODs using this tile.
A few map screens seem a bit... blank (like screen 099). Others look very good (battle screens).
However, the are some weird things going on in the terms of hardness:
One of "Mr. Farmer's" pigs walked outside the fence. So there is a hardness error here. But strangely enough, I couldn't do this with Dink - err... I mean Christopher.
So it does not affect the player, only the pigs. Maybe it's a bug in the skeleton DMOD?
I can walk on the buildings... they have mostly problems on their backside.
Also: Tom's necklace - I guess the pig feed is a placeholder.
