Hi Dark,
No, there is a specific strength stat in Mysteries of the Ancients. It
measures things like how many times you can swing a dagger, sword, use
a spear, as well as other things like punches, how long you can hang
from a rope, and lots of stuff. Beli

Hi Thomas,
If a sword can be used 20 times before your strength runs out and causes a
maximum of 10 hit points per hit, then the maximum damage would be 200 hit
points.
But if a dagger could be used 100 times and inflicted 4 hit points per hit,
then the maximum damage could be 400 hit points.

HI Dark,
Yeah, I see your point, but like I said let's get the game done first,
and work out all these other details of what goes where and weather it
should or should not be unlockable.
For example, in the new release, beta 18, I'm adding more items to the
game. Two of these is a bronze shield a

Hi Phil,
Actually, the game already works this way. The sword uses more
strength than a dagger. I'm not quite sure of the units off the top of
my head, but I think a sword takes 5 units of strength and a dagger
uses only 1. In that way a dagger is a better weapon if you are
conserving strength, b

weapons are concerned, if you mean health ie, being wounded causes you to

Hi Tom.
That's fair enough, and indeed seems to be usual practice, in fact many
games I've beta tested generally have a bunch of balance fixes as the last
thing on the list once the basic engine is stable and most compatibility
bugs are dealt with.
however, as you are obviously going into le
Hi Dark,
All I can say is we will see. Part of the problem is here that the
game isn't completed. Oh, I have notes illistrating my ideas for
various aspects of each game level they aren't set in stone, and are
subject to change in development. I'm kind of like a writer who just
