New(ish) D-Mod: Dink Smallwood: Achievement Unlocked Edition
Posted by redink1 on Thursday September 4th, at 07:56 PM
The ever-prolific CocoMonkey has released a new D-Mod/Add-On/thing entitled Dink Smallwood: Achievement Unlocked Edition. As you may have gathered, this D-Mod takes the original game and adds Achievements which the player can Achieve. There are 27 achievements to earn in total. So, if you're looking for a good excuse to revisit the original game, this would be quite ideal.

Once again, here are some writings about DMODs from a given year. Most of these were written before I could post images on the forum, so they appear here for the first time with inline images and captions.

2002 was an eventful year, featuring such DMODs as "As Good as Eternity," "Cloud Castle," "Pilgrim's Quest," and the Alternative Hero Contest entries, including "Cycles of Evil" and "Lyna's Story."

Updated Files: Malachi and Achievements
Posted by redink1 on Thursday September 18th, at 08:23 PM
As CocoMonkey played through the last D-Mods of 2003 (in his ever-excellent write-ups of all the D-Mods), he also found time to fix a few bugs in a couple of his recent releases.

First up, Malachi the Jerk. It has been updated to version 1.3, which fixes a few issues revolving gold count, experience granted for boss battles, secret ending animation, and an occasional bug involving Dink's speed when leaving or entering the mud walk (amongst other fixes like an updated walkthrough and a corrected typo).

Second, Dink Smallwood: Achievement Unlocked Edition has been updated to fix a freeze bug when talking to a guard, and it also fixes the 'Powerful Pugilist' achievement.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of my last D-Mod, I've updated Cast Awakening Part 1: Initiation to v1.1.0. This includes a few dozen tweaks: primarily more hints, but also bug fixes, balancing changes, and some new alternative routes.

For some more thoughts, please read the comments section.
