hi guys.

in soldexus i have beaten the game with Ian and have unlocked the option of using Ava in a new file.

i have pretty much beaten the game with Ava as well. i am not braging. this leads on to my following questions:

1 - in the Abandoned Temple is that red bar that looks like a health meter the percentage of the items you have collected?

2 - if it is, when the bar reaches the top will the path be cleared that is blocked by the flashing skull blocks on the right hand side of the screen?

3 - in playing the game as Ava i have planted the bombs in all of the places on the map but i have missed 1 spot in the Volcanic Labyrinth (it wasnt the boss one). when i walk in to the arrow where the bombs get planted i am not able to move... nothing happens, not even an error window pops up. then i have to press escape to end up at the main menu. can someone tell me why this is happening and how to fix it?... im eager to finish the game!

4 - in regards to questions 1 and 2, how do i collect all of the items to supposedly open the area in the Abandoned Temple?

5 - im only 13 turning 14 and i seem to be the only one to have gotten this far. why the hell do you people not give this game a propper go? by the way, it may help to make the game easier via the options menu.

i will give you the following information to try to help you answer my previous questions:

DarkPoison

has anyone even gotten this far?

You do realize a very small percentage of the people who visit YoYoGames actually visit the forums, right? There is an even smaller chance that of those people who do visit the forums, one of them beat Soldexus. Of that tiny chance, there is an even smaller chance that the person who did beat Soldexus actually wants to spend the time to answer your questions.

Until that person comes along, you'll have to be patient, or PM the creator of the game.

Meanwhile, I haven't played that game yet, so I can't help you. ;)

Hmm...

Ok then. Because I seem to be the only one who has gotten this far in Soldexus, I will help you guys to get this far in Soldexus. Then, once we are up to each other, we can help each other to give this game a nailing that it will never forget! But untill then, you guys ask questions, and I'll provide the answers.

PS. I already PMed "PneoGames" ages before anyone answered me in the other forum. :P

ah god. that game is a BIA---. i had like 24 hours on the meter. it was incredible.
anyway, the only real reason i'm saying anything is because i feel like shoving nailog.

Quote that game is a BIA---.

Did you mean ---TCH, and did you mean it in a good way ? : |

Anyway... You provide the questions , and i'll provide the answers .

Quoteim only 13 turning 14 and i seem to be the only one to have gotten this far. why the hell do you people not give this game a propper go? by the way, it may help to make the game easier via the options menu.
It's not that I won't give it a proper go, I want to play the game, but I don't have that much free time anymore. I think that's what happens for a lot of people. Just not a lot of time. I'll definitely play it though and try to beat it some time.

Oh, and remove all of your posts above the one where you figured out BB or combine them into one using the edit button. Most people frown upon sixtuple posting here, hehe. But don't be too worried about it.

Ok.
question: I have 9 attack and 8 defense; do I have enough to make it through the lab, or should I search for more?

Search for more what? Hehe. Just kidding!

Sythe2o0,

answer: it doesn't matter how much attack or deffence you have. Just play through the lab and if your crap, search for more attack and deffence.

You can buy attack and deffence from the shop. I also recomend adrenaline. This basicly doubles your health bar. You should regularly check the shop for items that only appear there after certain attack and deffence levels.

In the very first room of the castle (the entrance), climb the walls and there will be a deffence upgrade there.

Easy money:
Just keep entering and re-entering the second room to kill those 2 or 3 things that walk only left and right.

Initquitous labratory boss:
This boss wont get damaged unless you remove his shield.

Removing the shield:
You must destroy the little things that stick out of the left and right walls that are at about 2 times your hight. It takes about 3 hits depending on your attack level. This process pops up regularly during the boss battle.

To be totally honest, I think your question was a bit of a waste. wasn't it common sence to just see if you could get through the lab before looking for attack and deffence?

Anyway, I hope this post helped.

Jolly Green Giant,

Your Game Lucid Dreaming sounds good.

Tell us all about it through a new topic in this forum.

Sounds good : )

ah ok. my friends want to know if there are any cheats.

Er...
I dont think so.

Where'd you hear about it? Just curious. I'm glad you're interested though. Maybe I will make a topic.
:)

I'm not very far in production because of a lack of time, but my character designs in my sketchbook are coming along nicely.

I'm hoping to get it up there with Soldexus on the top 12, but I think that's everyone's goal, top 12, hehe.

i heard about it from your signature and ive been interested in lucidity for over a year.

sounds good.

I've started playing Soldexus. It's pretty hard, but I'm not going to bend over and use the "easier" option.

er... ok.

i was only mentioning the "easier" for guys that suck.

but anyway. welcome aboard this dangerous path.

I didn't get past the main menu...

sad, i know...

i got frustrated and deleted it....

did you even read the txt doc?

i know the controls are stuffed up but the controls are:
QuoteArrow keys - movement

C key - jump/make selection/advance dialogue
X key - attack/skip cutscene/go back a screen
Z key - special

F key - Map/stat screen

Esc - goto title screen/ exit game from title screen

(gamepad)can be reconfigured at options screen
button 1 - jump/make selection/advance dialogue
button 4 - attack/skip cutscene/go back a screen
button 2 - special

button 5 - Map/stat screen
duh fred.

DarkPoison, with the whole Instant Play thing, text files bundled with the games aren't the best idea as most people won't read them. I know Soldexus was made before YoYoGames, but the creator could have used Enter and such as duplicate keys for the menu navigation, for people that didn't read the text file first.

This is a good thing to remember as you make your own games.

well, i didnt read the text file first. i tried to play the game and then got out of it.
but i didnt delete it before i even read the text file!

new information:
the max attack level you can be is 21.
the max deffence level you can be is 19.

happy days!

*SPOILER WARNING*

in the "extra" for Soldexus:

-the 2nd question mark is "music test". this lets you listen to all of the background music in Soldexus. there is about 33 tracks. (unlock this by beating the game with Ian)

-the 3rd question mark is "boss rush". you choose either Ian or Ava and then you verse boss after boss of all of the bosses in the game with 1 life! after you beat each boss your health refills. this is also timed. so see how far you can go and how fast you can do it! (unlock this by beating the game with Ava)

(PS... check out my new avatar!)

post your progress, people!

no more questions?

how do you beat boss 2, for all the lamos who havent?
