Access Phenomenon - Beta release
Hey All Here is an early beta demo of "Access Phenomenon: The Land of Lies" Hosted by Rebel Planet: http://rebelplanetcreations.com/workarea/Access1.exeMany thanks to Andvari for the animations, Hanzo for the character models, Ambassador for the Music/GUI/character noises and the beginning narration, Light_mystic for sound effects, Dex for textures and various models and I think it was Loopix's models that I used for the weeds. Rest of the work was done by myself, all the programming/level design/game development. This demo contains puzzles about the NIV bible, and a copy may be required to solve the puzzles. The story is fictional, but the story refers to God at places, this material may be offensive to some, please keep in mind that it is all fictional. Some of the sounds and music are .ogg files, if you don't have it already, you'll need to install the .ogg codec, you can find it at this link: http://www.dbpoweramp.com/codec-central-ogg.htmAs this is a beta version, there's still lots to be changed. Please keep in mind the following: -You can skip non cutscene dialog quickly by pressing Esc -You'll get an error if you attempt to load one of the games that already appears in the load game screen, make sure that you only load a game that you have already saved yourself, even better, save over every slot as soon as you can to stop any errors happening when you load a game. -Most of the bible clues are incomplete, if you get a clue saying "And God said let there be light, and there was light" the book is not Genesis, as Genesis actually doesn't have that as a clue. It simply means that I haven't had the time to find verses for that book, hit the ? box again to get the order that book is in the bible. -Remember turn down water quality and vegetation density/visibility in options menu to increase performance. I haven't tested the demo on slower PCs. A bug that might occur on the slower systems, is that text moves really really slowly when it appears on screen, if you encounter this problem, let me know and I'll see if I can upload an update which will hopefully rectify this problem. --------------------------------------------------------- Some screens from www.accessphenomenon.com

yeah so its too hard for some people, or even impossible, for me for example. And i really would like to buy the game oneday and play it, without checking the bible.
Maybe more "neutral" quests should exist.
I have tried to convince David but with to success |<...
Or maybe we are the only blockheads dump enough to mess up the quests XD

lol yeah maybe i should just read the bible XD (im sure i'll never do @_@)
well then no AccessPhenomenon for me and you :<
Yeah I know, I don't expect anyone to read their bibles, I can understand it's offensive to some. Perhaps I'll add cheats that can automatically complete those puzzles in an area or something. For the second demo at least, ctrl-shift-x will give you all pieces of the orb, full health, full SP, so you can bypass all the puzzles. (I also think I missed some files in the 2.0 demo and the memory puzzles arn't working propery. You can also do some clipping :P ctrl-shift-h will enable the you to fly around with the player position at the camera, press space to go back to normal (the player will be spawned in at the new camera position, so you can bypass walls etc. If you hit a ? box enough, it will tell you the order of the book, ie 4th book of the old testament, then all you need to do is look at the index of a bible and start counting, but once again, I wouldn't expect some to do that.

I think its really awesome that you have questions about The Bible in there, its a book that many people don't have a background in from school but its about the Creator of the universe, what could be more important?

No dont do that. Just write an walkthrough for the riddles, that should be enough (but dont include it into your game)
so people who dont want to cheat won't read the walkthrough.

Heck, with the names 'David' and 'Samual' (samuel) for creators, the biblical theme seems almost fitting lol
OK silly comments aside, for the puzzles with content not easy for all players, perhaps have a local chaplain or maybe a church where they can go for clues... such as a dialouge from an NPC or even reading an open page from a bible or something of that nature.
Just a thought...
