Hey, why did Dan Reynolds say 'the upcoming game out of Midnight Synergy' he was working on

would feature a voice? Is it the same voice as one used in previous games and I'm just stupid, or...?

I think Morklin would be a better choice for an indigo magic teacher.

I agree, Morklin seems to be better option. He's your mentor since the first WA, and it will be nice if he teaches you the last magic in WA trilogy. Also, he comes across as very wise Stinker, so he'd be the first one to show you the new magic.

MS, please stop us speculating. The best way to do so is to release PoTZ

MS, could you PLEASE fix the glowing bookshelf glitch in the POTZ editor? Thanks.

Did anybody notice that in all of the other pictures, MS was playing as Stinky, but in this one he was Loof? Do you think that's perhaps for a reason somewhat like this:

The Midnight Post wrote: Speaking of Peegue, you would certainly have noted that Stinky and the gang didn’t make an appearance in the game (other than as selectable player characters). We struggled with this idea for a long time. One design idea called for all four to appear in the game with special quests (such as Peegue’s Puzzle Place, above). If the player selected one of the four characters to play with, that character’s quests would be removed or replaced in-game with another one. For example, if you played as Stinky, you could meet Peegue and complete Peegue's puzzles. If you played as Peegue, Peegue's shop would not exist in the game - instead you would be able to meet Stinky and complete a set of Stinky-related adventures.

Sorry for the lack of updates... it's been a very slow month.

But things are ticking along. I've been spending most of my time on the hub lately, fleshing out conversations, side-quests, etc.

I should have a new picture up soon-ish (certainly by next weekend).

Slow and steady...

By next weekend? Well, that's good news.

Wow! Impressive.

Now, is that being used on a scritter on a transporter?

Shut up and take my money.

Anyone see that ridiculously pink particle in the top left?

The green circle on the left, it's looking really cool!

I think POTZ is going to be the best game I'll ever play!

2 games breathed again for the first time in a while, and I am more excited than ever for WA3!

Pretty impressive! I think I'm gonna love this.

AWESOME! REALLY COOL!

This is really exciting.

I like all the colorfulness.

Nope, that's a DiamondOnce button. The scritterish-looking thing is just a remnant of the recently fired Indigo spell.

An indigo charger is placed near some barrels at the bottom of the screen, the barrel in front of the glowing green thing has to be destroyed to get the coins, the Indigo appears to have done the equivalent of Popping the button, the effects of the Indigo seem to involve creating multicolored rings, the seven colors are merged in a snowflake-ish thing, and there seems to be someplace you can Blink to in the upper right, so...

HYPOTHESIS: Indigo magic is some combination of the other six. Personally I wouldn't like this to be true since it wouldn't be adding in anything new, per se, but I guess we'll see.

But based on the fact the Indigo spell seems to have just hit at the time of the picture, we should see gates descending/opening if the Indigo had popped the button. There's the possibility that the gate was offscreen, but I think that the player had simply already been on the button. I'd like to think the "Indigo Tornado" shows the spot the spell hit, and the colorful, spirally, flowery, multi-armed thing in the top is coming to Loof. When it reaches him, the previously mentioned indigo idea (see here) occurs, and voila!

Also, MS, can we have a rough release date? Something along the lines of, "Assuming all goes according to plan, we should see a release sometime around [Month] and [Month]"

THAT LOOKS EPIC.

Gods, Patrick, you sure are good at making us anticipate the release of the game even more every time you post a picture.

Posted: **Fri Feb 15, 2013 5:12 am**

So Indigo Magic starts with F...

Can you please just tell me if one of these Indigo magic names is correct?

Freeze
Fly
Fast
Far
Fire
Floing II
Future (Loopy refers to it as "Future Magic", but that might just mean that we learn it in the future.
Find
Fit

I can't come up with any more. But fellow speculators, notice that in every screenshot with indigo, there are X's by the charger. With every other magic, there are no X's.

Posted: **Fri Feb 15, 2013 7:27 am**

Great pic ms. Wonderful.
Now, freeze and fire are ruled out as we know them.

Posted: **Fri Feb 15, 2013 2:06 pm**

My hypothesis: it's movable teleporters. PORTAL IN WONDERLAND!!!

DEM PARTICLES

Posted: **Sat Feb 16, 2013 1:27 pm**

*Dies due to the awesomness of the screenshot*

Has anoyne noticed the rainbow Koch snowflake in the top left?
Besides, I wonder if the green spell is anyhow connected with indigo magic (I supose it doesn't, the spell seems a new gameplay element to me).
Also, the rainbow vortex seems a bit to big - it can hide some elements while playing. And, why isn't indigo magic making indigo vortex

?
