Re: [Audyssey] Problems with quicksand in Perlous Hearts

Hi Thomas I've tried that, and I seem to reach the shallow water part then 
run out of branchs.  I jump up onto the 3rd vine along I think, then move to 
the end of one branch before dropping down to the one below that, then I get 
stuck.  I see there are vines off to my right about 4 feet away but nothing 
to help me reach them, think I'm barking up the wrong tree :)

You need to climb the vine which is really close to the quicksand, --- about 
two feet away.


When your up on the branche, go along to the end (check to see where the air 
is), then look below you and there are more branches.


Keep dropping down until you find a bush, and you should be safe.

As long as you climb the vine closest to the quicksand, and keep going right 
as far as you can along the upper branche you should get over ok.


Hth.

Beware the grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Problems with quicksand in Perlous Hearts

2011-11-24 Thread dark
As far as I can determine, you actually can't jump very far horizontally, 
only two or three feet, thus you need to climb the vine and walk along the 
branche.


To climb, just hold ctrl up arrow until you hear Jim grunt as he pulls 
himself over the top of the vine so that he's standing on the branche, then 
use the look commands to determine where the branche ends (it'll say air to 
indicate the end).


You seem to be able to fall anything up to 8 feet without taking damage, so 
if you look below you while on a branche you'll see others to land on. This 
seems the best way of getting across the quicksand, and also a good way to 
get out of trouble sinse tougher enemies like the boars stay on the ground, 
and there are even fewer chimps up in the trees.


Beware the grue!

Well Lori, it's interesting because features like that are just! the sort of 
thing that Thomas and I and other old school boffins have been missing in 
games like Q9 and superliam, and why we've said they're not true 2D.


While I'm not sure how much perilous hearts makes of the vertical 
aspects,  for instance I've yet to see enemies that you need to jump to 
kill, or different sized gaps betwene ledges to jump(jumping doesn't seem to 
carry you very far in the game actually), it's certainly far more like a 
true 2D game than we've had up to now not counting Mota, which is fantastic!

Well Lori, it's interesting because features like that are just! the sort of
thing that Thomas and I and other old school boffins have been missing in
games like Q9 and superliam, and why we've said they're not true 2D.

While I'm not sure how much perilous hearts makes of the vertical aspects,
 for instance I've yet to see enemies that you need to jump to kill, or
different sized gaps betwene ledges to jump(jumping doesn't seem to carry
you very far in the game actually), it's certainly far more like a true 2D
game than we've had up to now not counting Mota, which is fantastic!

Beware the grue!

Dark.

 Thanks Dark, one thing I really like about this game is how you can shoot 
 downwards, so still teach those fiends a lesson while staying safely on 
 your branch.  I just managed to kill a boar from high up in the tree, but 
 when I jumped down to get him I had a chimp after me then some greedy 
 vulture came and gobbled up my dinner!  I wish you could shoot those too 
 :)

 As far as I can determine, you actually can't jump very far horizontally,

 only two or three feet, thus you need to climb the vine and walk along 
 the branche.

 To climb, just hold ctrl up arrow until you hear Jim grunt as he pulls 
 himself over the top of the vine so that he's standing on the branche, 
 then use the look commands to determine where the branche ends (it'll say

 air to indicate the end).

 You seem to be able to fall anything up to 8 feet without taking damage, 
 so if you look below you while on a branche you'll see others to land on.

 This seems the best way of getting across the quicksand, and also a good 
 way to get out of trouble sinse tougher enemies like the boars stay on 
 the ground, and there are even fewer chimps up in the trees.

 Beware the grue!

 Hi everyone, I was on one vine and trying to reach the next one, but 
 died in some quick sand, even though I kept hitting my right arrow and 
 control to try and swim fast over it.  Could someone tell me how I get 
 over it. The documentation says nothing about swimming, so I think you 
 have to get over it in the air, but I don't seem to be able to jump far 
 enough.  What am I doing wrong?  Thanks from Lori.

Hi,
I've been playing awhile now, and I have to say that I love the spear. It is
probably my favorite weapon. I tried to kill the leopards with it, but I was
happily torn up before I could get all three.

Re: [Audyssey] Problems with quicksand in Perlous Hearts

2011-11-24 Thread Lori Duncan
Ouch, sounds painful, I keep falling off branchs right into the middle of 
fights, then the boars start jumping on poor Jim and knocking him about, 
wish I could sharpon my knife a bit.


I also notice that when I'm on a vine shooting at something and I run out of 
ammo i can't re-load until I reach the top, is that because Jim needs both 
hands to climb up or down?  I like how the creatures don't always attack the 
player but can go after each other.

Use the branches in the trees overhead to get across.

Hi Lori,

That seems like the most logical explanation. You can't climb a vine
one-armed. So you couldn't reload while hanging on a vine.
