WA3 Update Thread

Hmmm.. MS mentioned that he'd make either a RTRTW (Not the real name, actually a game like old classic games) or WA4. RTRTW is more likely though.

I doubt it's the end of the series, even if Patrick takes a long break after that.

Noooooo! WA is so awesome...
Wonderland with no magic, diagonal moves, scritters and all these awesome stuff? Do we want that?
(My personal answer is no.)

I know MS commented he might, but doesn't it seem like if Wonderland is to continue, he'll make a new series? He mentioned before that the engine for WA3 is the same one as WA1, which was from 2007. RTW, WSW, and TOW have got to be even older than that(2002ish, I think), so he probably doesn't want to go back to that old of a engine. I'm hoping he might make an entirely new Wonderland(maybe with a multiplayer mode?), continue WA, or make a new series even better than Wonderland(hard to believe, but it could be possible).

YAY!! Somebody shares the same opinion as me.
I also want WA4 more (although it's very doubtful that MS will make it

) But if MS makes another game I think he might prefer RTRTW. (Although I wont

.)

EDIT: @Fluffshery: I'm like you, but I'd go for Continuing WA or making new Wonderland (tri)logy. (If he's keeping magic of course.)

No Maze game could be better than Wonderland.

Yup, those are my two preferences, I just put the last one in because it is possible that MS could make a game even better than Wonderland.

After you remove all of that stuff and add crates, boulders, cannons, ghosts, gunpowder kegs, trampolines, link spheres, shadow stinkers, and 4 different characters, you're left with PUZZLES. RTW might not be as detailed as WA, but needs a whole lot of thinking...

Yzfm · Post by **Yzfm** » Tue Oct 09, 2012 5:03 pm

to be honest, RTW's puzzles are the most difficult yet (Ok maybe WSW is treated the same, haven't purchased TOW though.)

Wa's puzzles were fair enough as well as its action. MOFI was a bit hard. Don't get me wrong.. MOFI is the best game of WA series yet (and the least buggy.) (We don't count WA3 beause it's not released yet. But WA3 is surely to be the awesomest yet) But the fairest (Spelling correct?) puzzles were WA's. also WA's gameplay elements were the best yet. RTW has more puzzle elements than action though.

But one of the bold reasons I like WA more that the storyline was awesome. And told in a set of easy to deal with dialogues. The plot in The classic trilogy was weak. I usually like games as long as their plots are bold and strong.

AGREED.

Well, I liked the WA plot and setting, but come on, this is WA3, not "Final Fantasy 26". Good and clever level design is the heart and soul of any puzzle game, period.

(actually, the more story-oriented a game is, the closer it is to being a glorified visual novel, but that's another matter entirely)

EDIT: As for difficulty, I have kinda fell out of MOFI, so I haven't beaten it and can't really talk about it... though it's definitely harder than WA. As for the classic trilogy, I actually believe that WSW is by far the hardest. Though there's one RTWD level I've never finished, "Rescue Mission", but that's because it's really long and REALLY boring. Once you get further into the game, WSW holds some of the toughest puzzles of the classic trilogy. It becomes especially apparent in "The Void" section of the game.

I read plenty of books. I still like having a lot of storyline in my levels.

It depends, for example It's pretty hard for me to be excited about WA3 with no plot.

Beep.

And on the topic of the 10th Anniversary... yes, I do plan on sending something out, but it's going to be more of a quiet celebration. No big announcements yet. Keep expectations in check.

1: The scritters only hold down buttons of their color.
2: The scritters all move in different ways.
3: The scritters eat you if you get too close.
4: The scritters are just normal scritters, but they look nicer.

5: They're Z-bots who got coated in dust, and then had two sticky rocks each hit their faces.

Clearly.

EPIC!!

My guess: Fire scritter: Are chased like normal scritter but touching them is dangerous.

I really wonder what they do

Could it be.. No.. doubt it's like that. I don't think it's the revenge of the void or something..

It's either a new cool watertex or a new LIQUID OTHER THAN WATER AND LAVA!!!!! (Well, I thimk it's a watertex after all.)

I'm thinking that it'd be cool that MS add new liquids like acid in WA3.

You never cease to amaze. Those scritters look beautiful!

I was wondering when we'd see another place/texture. It seems like the majority of the recent pictures have been that Spaceship/Z-Bot building place. I like the orange scritters though. Also, the MOFI bridges look good, but why would there be bridges if stinkers weren't there before? Do the alien stinkers live on that planet, and they set them up? And what planet is it? I would say Barren, but that picture seems not very barren for being a barren planet. And is that even water at the bottom of the pits, or just a bit of floor stuff?

Barren is a confirmed planet for PoTZ. It's called Barren because it's... barren?

Ah okay, I didn't know barren was an a adjective word! I thought this was just a invented name...
