Oricium feedback and review thread
Re: Oricium feedback and review thread
Thanks for your nice comments guys. They are really appreciated.
If there were enough players it would be nice to have some kind of contest. And maybe not only for your score, but for instance to see the first one being able to identify all the songs, and maybe spot all the references to the 80s.. And some which are not to the 80s...

I particularly like the introduction and the fact that they think the puzzle-thing works!

I think i have worked out most of the music apart from one and it's driving me mad ....I still have some of those songs on vinyl singles in a box under the stairsChema wrote:Thanks for your nice comments guys. They are really appreciated.

Re: Oricium feedback and review thread
My only concern is the URL they give to download Oricium, it's not the official one (so they may earn $$$ from everyone that use this URL instead of the normal one, even if it's just a redirection)peacer wrote:I hope low resolution preview picture of our Oricium in half page from that mag is not a copyright issue

Re: Oricium feedback and review thread
hehe... nice video, though.
He misses also a bit of the gameplay (and does not calibrate the vertical retrace too well, I think, but that is indeed a bit hard).
I wonder why he does not select the Beginners Game first
