Wise words, both, wise words.

they released a video from their editor...

it seems to be very complicated! a lot of menus, almost an editor to make a "real" game (almost)... I remembered how the first LOG editor' video was sooooo cool I wanted to do dungeons right after saw it. there, well, headaches!

I'm a huge fan of grimrock, tried once to make a dungeon, and I thought the top view was a lot clearer...


(but I'm waiting for LOG² and M&M )

And I think it is intended to be so. Those willing to be beta-testers for free can do so and get glimpses of a product beforehand. And I think many forget that and expect to get a finished product, sometimes even when it is in the early alpha stages.

I played trough the content they've released so far and expectations are slightly positive. I just hope they improve their dungeon and puzzle content, now it's pretty bland. But still I'm eagerly waiting what the final product will be like and propably play it with a happy smile on my face (unless they screw things up somehow before the release..).
