Happy to hear that did the trick.  Look forward to seeing your impression of the demo in the Backer's Feddback subforum.  It's always interesting to see what other players think.

Just a hunch, but have you tried using the separate "Settings Menu" program to turn off fullscreen?  I seem to recall having an odd aspect ration making someone else' demo act like that with the first one.

I'd be shocked if you were the oldest gamer here, actually.  Still, welcome aboard!

As a dissenting voice, I do not care for videos unless you are showing off gameplay or the like.

Yikes!  Salmonella is no fun at all...

Get better!

One and a half days left and Fullscreen Exploration mode is achieved.  Anyone who was on the fence, hoping for a classic fullscreen scenery experience has had their excuse removed.

Here's the instructions for the combination to reach the Fountain Hall:

Assuming that this is regarding the Mage's Initiation private forums, you probably won't get a reply PM or notice (I didn't,) but will be able to see An entry under the Off-Topic Section in a new "Private Forums" subforum.
Since you don't have a "Backer" image under your name, I'm guessing that navynuke04 may not have gotten the request and manually adjusted your permissions yet.  He should get to it soon.

In the meanwhile, welcome!  And there is a public MI forum for the interim.

there are three (well, four, if you count where you get dumped for wrong combinations) rooms in the demo- the Reading Room, the Training Hall, and the Fountain Room.  The paper you are given in the Training Hall will give you the combination to the Fountain Room.
Once a room is "unlocked," it appears as an option by room name as well when interfacing with the door. If this is insufficient, I will happily go and grab screencaps for you.

(Busy listening to Jan Kavan's thank you concert from J.U.L.I.A. Enhanced Edition right now.  He's a very skilled musician!)

Tomorrow Jan and his wife will be streaming a free thank-you concert.  Check the project page for time and URL.

It has three days left and just over $1500 to go for the Fullscreen Exploration Mode stretchgoal.

Very nice!
I was just curious and it wasn't addressed in the update on KS from a couple days ago, nor a topic I'd seen here.  Thank you for the update.

How are you doing on that side?
Haven't heard too much about it, and I'm curious if pledges are coming in steadily, or if it's fairly quiet.

Yeah, I'm starting this section off with a shameless plug for another adventure game project.  It has a week and a half left, and most of you no doubt heard about it in the KS comments.

There are now a couple of really nice deals in it, with $7 for the basic game, $25 for two games and soundtracks, and yes, even an extra digital-only tier we talked Jan into providing.

Long story short, two guys made a nifty sci-fi puzzle game with heavy story and got completely screwed.  Now they have bought it back and are upgrading it with funding via IndieGoGo.

Oh, and an amazing soundtrack.  Really.  Follow the link and listen to some of the music; it's really good.

Hmm, the fire icon isn't very clear at this resolution.  May go back to the drawing board...

Glad to know that I'm not the only one who was thinking Greek at first, too.

Oddly enough, I didn't.  You would think otherwise from my handle.

At any rate, thanks, navynuke04, for making the security questions less inaccessible for people.

[navynuke04]

Fastest way to get it applied is to PM navynuke04

Fair enough.  I imagine it's somewhat obscure trivia upon reflection.  Sorry.

On the other hand, if you reply to this and then post one more time, you'll be through with the silly verifications!

...

English uses the roman alphabet...

Thank you.
*wanders off to do mad sciencey-things*

While aggravating, the questions do not change, and will go away after five posts on an account.

I know that it's around and I'm just derping, but where can I grab a decent copy of the Mage's Initiation logo with a transparent background?

I hope we didn't traumatize you all too badly with the deluge of demo feedback...

Congrats.  Now get to work!

I had lag with every RoF spell and never got knocked on my back, no matter how long I was trapped in a cycle.

I think they said that the resolution matter was a fault of the engine being used and that they are trying to find some way to fix that.

Figured I would go ahead and make an account while everyone's at the AMA in Reddit.  That way when the KS campaign ends, I'll already be signed up here to continue harassing the team!
