Oh, the epic-ness! :D

Everything is done now except putting the credits at the end of the closing cutscene, and one or two more playthroughs by myself.

Man, I can't believe it! 18 months and I'm finally there!

So chaps, I'm now advertising for beta-testers. The level is pretty long (takes me, knowing my way around, just under an hour to complete) but it is split into distinct sections. I reserve the right to be picky about who I accept as a beta-tester.

None-the-less, if you wish to test, please PM me or say so here.

I have a hole in my schedule, so if you are okay with it, I'd like to betatest this one. :) The difficulty sounds about right for me and it has been a while since I last played KS. :) What better way to play this level to get that all sorted. :)

If you decide not to give me a beta, I'm okay with it. I'll not ban you or anything. Well, maybe only temporary... :P j/k :nuts:

I'll volunteer too. Hopefully you're not sick of me as a beta tester.

Sergio, you're hired. I now have enough beta testers. I'll try and PM you all today, assuming other things don't get in the way.

EDIT: PMs sent. Forum was acting a bit eerie though, so tell me if you didn't receive it.

Talps, I've sent my report in. :) There are a few things that need a fix.

Still waiting for one tester to reply, and then I'll have to work through their suggestions.

Are you going to send out a second beta? I think it might be a good idea, at least I'd like to play one with that pretty big glitch fixed.

That big glitch won't change the level much. I see no reason to test it a second time for that sole reason. I did spot other problems that I'll test if a 2nd beta comes out though. :)

The glitch I know of is that one of the early screens disappeared during the compressing or uploading; it's not really that big. As I said, you can copy and paste the screen above it into place; it just saves you pulling the lever to open the door.
Or is there another glitch no one's mentioned?

Nah, that's the one I was talking about. I consider it big because it would prevent someone with limited knowledge of the editor from playing the level at all, and there's a chance it could turn up again in a new version.

There probably will be a second beta after this first one, and I will correct it if it shows up in the released version. But for the sake of speeding the testing process up, can you just copy the screen?

Will it be the same people for the second beta-test? If you are going to let others test the second beta, can i give it a shot?
