I gotta know. Are there swamp boots or something in this game? I'm looking for the 'Forest of Fog' to talk to the Priest chicky and I figure I've darn near explorer everything. The Forest Village has a kitty on a stool that I used the sun amulet on but she didn't seem interested in the kings letter. When I save in that area its called the 'Forest Village' not the 'Forest of Fog'.
Guess I'mma ebay my copy when the prices hit 3 digits.
Amazing what you'll learn when you read the manual. Nothing to see here :?Quote:

It's destined to become a Classic.Quote:

I can't seem to make it though the demon grave. I've killed the demon lord a couple of times but this damn retrogen kicks out so many friggin exception errors in this area it's impossible for me to hit the save point in his lair. Grrr, irritating.
Hello.
For debug purposes, every location in the game has its own internal name, even the ones where you can't normally save your game. Thus when you save your game, the save location will refer to that internal name, not the area as a whole. For example, saving inside of a hut on the island may show up in your save file as "village hut" (or some such similar name) rather than the name of the actual village. These internal names made more sense in the original Chinese version of the game, where they could be rendered using only a handful of characters. When the game was localized to English, I had to make sure they all fit within the limited screen width (14 characters?). Thus not all of them will appear with a title that's 100% clear to the player.Quote:

Again, that's caused by the limited compatibility of the Retrogen system, not by our game product. I continue to recommend that you use a real Genesis or Mega Drive, or at least a better-made clone, to play the game. As the Retrogen was released after Beggar Prince was released, it would have been impossible for us to anticipate the unit's weaknesses and plan ahead to counter and / or bypass them. Sorry.Quote:

Finished. Well with the priest marriage ending anyways. Cool. Well done. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The only thing that bugged me about the game was the lions who summon apes (or use ape spells). I don't know why but it just bugged me. Wouldn't they summon something cat related? Other than that I was pretty happy with the whole experience. Now hurry up and get LOWK in stock so I get my grubby hands on that.
Playing through again on my Model2 (VA1) genesis. Going into the Demon Graveyard is giving me this odd bug:
I'm using auto-attack on the lesser enemies and its almost as if the command stack builds up with commands and the last attack doesn't issue till I've been declared victorious. I exit to the graveyard overmap and then I can see a shadow of myself doing the final attack. Its very odd. It doesn't seem to impair anything but its very strange. FYI. Since the game is done ( from Superfigthers involvement) I guess posting this is a little pointless but I'd thought I'd share anywhoo.
I just got my copy in, managed to snag one of the last ones from Good Deal Games. I haven't played it yet, but I must say I'm very impressed with the packaging. I love the shiny case, and the little taps that actually hold the instructions manual. You can tell they thought this thing through.
Great! Thank-you for taking the time to share your first impressions. I hope you enjoy the game very much. :)Quote:

Perhaps, at least at a fair price. We're out of stock, and we aren't planning to produce any additional copies. Sorry. :(Quote:

You guys ever considered selling an official strategy guide for Beggar Prince and LoWK?
I know I'd buy one in a second!
Way back in the beginning, we were approached by a retrogaming publication to collaborate on a Beggar Prince strategy guide. Sadly it never came to fruition as the publication's owner stopped answering e-mails before we could reach an agreement.Quote:

Recently a complete copy surfaced on eBay, but the first bidder obviously set how high he wanted to go, I'm guessing it was 60+
It's going to be tough to get this game for the price it once was, but I'm not going to pay insane amounts for it.

Well, what do you know... three pristine copies of Beggar Prince have just arrived here, direct from the UK. They were unsold stock from the 2009 Byte-Back event in Stoke-on-Trent -- and they're available for purchase directly from me, to the first three people who contact me about them to arrange the transaction. So, for anyone here who missed out on the game and is rabid to grab a copy, this is your chance! That's right! Get cracking on that e-mail or private message, and you could soon be screaming, "SCOOBY DOOBY DOO!" at the top of your lungs in happy anticipation. :)

^^ - And with your help, he will be.
...and they're gonezo. Thanks to everyone who contacted me regarding these 3 copies of the game, but payment has now been received for all of them. Once again, Beggar Prince is out of stock.Quote:

I don't see the "become a fan" link. I clicked on the "like" link. That was all I saw on the page. Is that what you were referring too? Maybe i'm just being blind..lol.
You can't be a fan on Facebook any more, you can only like things.
I've just become a fan and backordered Zaku, The lynx was my very first console back in 1993. That game looks awesome!
I was just on the website and there out of copies of Beggar Prince. :( Hopefully they make more.
Thanks! I think you'll really be impressed by Zaku.Quote:

Thanks for your interest.
Could someone help me with the book puzzle at the very end of Beggar Prince which sets the Pauper free? I can't figure out with it wants me to do.
Hello and welcome to the forums!
Sure! Move your mouse pointer over the black portion of the message found below.Quote:

I hope you are enjoying the game very much. :)
Ok I want to restart Beggar Prince. But I kinda forgot what I'm supposed to do...I'm on that Island in the top right corner on the map with the empty village. Do I have to pass the spikes in the Cave?
Thanks in advance...
Yes you do, and it's all patience and timing. Save your game just outside the cave to avoid some frustration, as you're likely going to have to attempt the "spike run" several times before you successfully make it across.Quote:

I thought so, I don't think I'm supposed to be on this Island yet. I have no clue what to do...Quote:
