You have to stay low to the ground.

(As I believe is pointed out by the level intro text)

Aren't they detecting movement? So if you stay still they won't notice you?

The eagle is so mush easier than most think.

Stay on the left of each screen. Wait for the eagle to fly across right, then jump up to the plaform and across. Simple. :)

Anyway, it's all a matter of getting the timing down for when to jump... it's only, what, two or three screens? Whatever you do, stay low to the ground. Oh, and have fun with that water part!!! And, of course... Doragon

I stayed up untill 4 in the morning to try to beat the dragon thingy.
And I got past the eagle by accident by just randomly bouncing around :O

Let's try to keep this on topic, could we? :)

The only way to avoid the gryphon in the Gryphon Forest is to stay low. As said in the thread a few times.

Bit of a fun fact though: She's not exactly an eagle, she's a gryphon. As said in the starting text of the level: "Amoryllis is a tiny white bird, not some huge falcon like creature, which she was supposed to be, if the creator of this game wasn't so lazy." :P

Also note, the order of which you do the bosses also changes the skills for such boss. If you do a hard boss first, it'll be easier. If you do that same boss as last boss, it'll be alot harder.

Really??? I've played through it several times in different orders, and I have never noticed such a thing... how exactly do they become harder?
Title: Re: Eagle thingy
Post by: Evil on July 07, 2009, 19:40:22
So which is the hardest boss without the difficulty change thing.

I have no clue, as I suck badly in ModArchive Story. Can't even finish the first world, let alone finish a boss. But it has been mentioned a couple of times on the old forum.

Must have been on the old old forum, because I don't remember hearing about that :O

That sound really weird.
Title: Re: Eagle thingy
Post by: LPChip on July 08, 2009, 10:42:56
Can't find the mention of it. I did read something along like: I played the other levels first, so my ball control was better. Perhaps, I misread here...

On beating the teapot (first boss I beat):
Spoiler: swearwords (click to show/hide)

On beating the whole thing:
Quote
[16:05:23] <Dataflashsabot> I DID IT
[16:05:27] <Dataflashsabot> I BEAT MODARCHIVE
[16:05:28] <Dataflashsabot> YYAYAYAYAYA

Good times. (Though it was actually quite recently :P) And Doragon was hardest for me.
This 'adaptive difficulty' thing is interesting... Doragon was my last boss, would he have been easier if I'd beat him first?
Title: Re: Eagle thingy
Post by: LPChip on July 08, 2009, 14:23:51
If its true, then yes, he would be easier if you've beaten him first.
Title: Re: Eagle thingy
Post by: PONTO on July 08, 2009, 15:57:40
Strange, I had never heard of that, either. :)
Then, I suppose that the difficulty is maximum when you have beaten the game and just replay th levels.

I may test this someday when I have the time. :P
Title: Re: Eagle thingy
Post by: Bored2death on July 08, 2009, 18:04:09
I'm just having issues trying to imagine exactly how they are harder... every time I play through, the bosses all seem just as easy as the last time, regardless of the order I take...
Title: Re: Eagle thingy
Post by: LPChip on July 09, 2009, 00:14:48
Ok, I must be mistaken then. Forget what I said.

Nifflas, if you read this, please shed some light on this issue. X)

Sorry, I have no information that the bosses get different difficulties depending on completition order either :/

You didn't need my help to find out though, there is "Settings.ini" :)
Title: Re: Eagle thingy

Actually, that was just a way of saying that I didn't add that to the game.
