The rat dies actually have a walking Gani. For some reason it's not showing up properly on iPhone - yet it's showing correct on PC. Have to see if we can figure out why.
Also, yes, we did re-use the old Onnet Forest levels. A lot of people complain here on the forums that we don't use old levels - and now that we do, you're complaining that we're re-using old levels. How can we ever win with you people? Never most likely!
We have a GAT currently, and he is a great guy. He works and gets assignments done, which we haven't had in our past GATs, so kudos to him. We aren't releasing hearts and whatnot yet, so we rescripted the Rat Form with a Gani Sheet (instead of the 4 .gifs it ran off of back in the day) and released that. The scripts for randomization of the forest were also updated (they were level links prior - now it is actual randomization).
While this isn't really a "lengthy" quest of any sort, this is a milestone and stepping stone for Quests we are working on and have in the final stages. By releasing simple things like this, we can determine what limits and circumstances we will release newer content with. As you can see, the forest entrance was jam packed. It was like that for the better of 3-4 hours after release. This will be taken into consideration upon release of other quests.
All in all, not a major quest, but we're working on content. This quest will be part of a larger set of quests, in which you will need the rat transformation and possibly re-enter the Forest to receive some information from the witch or other Characters in the forest, to continue on with other quests.
Hope you all enjoy!
@SuperTron: We are able to hide ourselves (Stealth Mode) while in-game. This is available for any Staff member. Generally we do this while taking screenshots. I didn't look at the ones posted here except in their thumbnail view, so I'm not sure if staff are fully visible or not. But yes, that actually is the large amount. Crowds like that do form in Graal City and the various Guild Forts and Towers scattered about the map.
@Umat: We've disabled the viewing of nicknames as beginning preference. We've noticed the quite long nicknames of some players, so we've set it to disabled at the beginning, and players have the option of turning it on. I do believe we have a 50 character limit at the current time, which may be lowered. Also, the Overworld is being released piece by piece. We're trying to create content that will drive a player to another town, spreading the players out - instead of just releasing towns with pointless houses and no reason to actually visit the town.
@Dnegal: Thanks for the compliment
. We're working our butts off over here on iPhone!
