hm, you probably should have named the second zone level soemthingb like 2-1.and not 1-1, the same as the levels in the previous zones.
also not sure if I broke soemthing I didnt exactly play levels in orders since you didnt place them in order either.
but from second zone, the dessert , I only havent beaten 1-8 and 1-7 yet, got all others there.
including 1-3 and 1-9 where the map shows an exclamation mark, so something should happen there (jsut like the area where you got the healer girl that level has a red ! in it too).but yeah, i replayed those 2 desert levels many times, nothign happened story wise or unlocking that famous cactus farmer the guild is ranting about.it shows the compeltion sign for those levels but no red !and nothing happened eithe,r like no story dialog at the end of the elvel or anything.
not sure if something is broken there.
also it is HELL that you can not beat lots of levels there not cause you lack firepower and stuff, no it's cause you cant shoot through the stone pillars, while literally anything else can.
especially 1-2 railroad cannons mini gunning you down while you literally cant hit them cause the damn ston pillars are in the way.
you literally have 1500 hp shredded to nothign by those cannons in 3 seconds, while you can aim and shott their direction but ston pillars block the shots.that sucks hard. cause no upgrade will help you there.
gott pray for good rng I guess so pillar wont land in yourline of sight I guess :-/
Also jsut for my curiosity:
in the original 1-3, like the third elvel of the game where youg et the healer.
when you havent her yet, in tat level you can totally see her surrounded by a goblin squad at the top of the screen and shoot that squad.
back then I only got in 2-3 shots before it scrolled off screen, which idnd t change anything. it only flashed with eahc hit, as if it took damage.
but beat the level and got the healer anyways. so jsut wodnering, would it be possible to actually kill that squad there in that level or was that sjtu there for visuals?
cause like certain games (band of heroes and the likes) I thought you had to kill that goblin squad within the level to free her, so she joins your party.
but then I jsut finished the level normally and got ehr by default.
In the cactus level, you have to proceed without hitting a single cactus. The people in the guild tell you this. I did it by only using the healer after progressing past it a free levels. You can die at the boss to end the level and it'll work, if that works. esc is a little finicky.
The other ! is the knight and it'll be a pillar with red particles floating up from it. Takes a few shots. Again, told to you by the people in the guild.
I was in the guild, all they say is theres a knight in the city prison.
I didnt see no red pilalrs or stuff, but after getting the cactus guy, I tried dessert 1-9 witohut anyhting special there and had the knight dialogue this time.no clue what had changed, do you need to find guys in the right order?
