Hey, that looks great. My only critisicm would be that the actual game screen seems a bit out of the way. Seeing as that is the part of the screen that people will be looking at most of the time, it might pay to make it a bit larger or more central to the screen layout.


Mayhaps if you put cash as a section in the Status box, or moved the messages box down to the bottom so that it had less height but more width and took a bit of height from the Packs/Items/Inventory row.


Just let me know if I'm being an idiot because I don't know how easy or hard it is to change this around from a programing perspective, but looking from a design persepctive I just think you'd benefit from giving the game screen a bit more visual weight.

I managed to make it larger without changing the code too much.

I posted a demo of the game on the other forums.

Hmm now I'm stuck, I'm trying to figure out how spells like Cold bolt or Magic arrow decide which sprite they are: Up down left or right.

Use Pythagoras?

Calculate the x-delta and y-delta of the spot to fire to. If x-delta is the biggest then it's left or right depending on x-delta's sign. If y-delta is bigger it's up or down...

Pythagoras! I forgot all about it, thanks Gil.

I'll post the next release here after Nova tells me if he's still getting that Runtime error.

Have you ever played Runescape? You could make the screen look like that. That would be awesome for a COTW remake.
