Re: Minotaur Arcade Vol 1 (Gridrunner/Goatup)
I looked at that for recording footage of another game I’m testing, but the default font is so tiny on my laptop screen that I couldn’t read it. The text also was cut off in every window/popup:


Gridrunner, Minotaur Arcade - A MINTER EWE C**T thread ...
Level 36 then! What a C**T! So loving this game but this level is a absolute arse to get past and still have not, much for amusement here is 10 minutes of failed attempts, certainly the way forward will be for me to go back a few levels and arrive at 36 with more lives in hand.
NOTE: much saying of the C**T word is contained in this little recording

Re: Minotaur Arcade Vol 1 (Gridrunner/Goatup)
There seems to be a rather simple bug plaguing this release, where choosing the "Launch in Oculus VR mode" from steam does not work, but launching it normally and choosing "Start in VR" does. This seems like something that could be rather easily fixed (or even side-stepped by removing the former option), but is causing issues for people who haven't figured out the workaround.

I was trying to find the quickest way to complete level one, not the high score way but fast all the same, all at the top ... Good way of using those few seconds of invulnerability!

Those effects are a lot of fun but I never notice them during play. Pausing and looking around in VR, though, they're super-obvious.

Just bought this but it isn't letting me play full screen. I tried pressing F1, as per the instructions, but nothing happens. I've upgraded the NVIDIA drivers via the NVIDIA Experience app, but still no joy. Graphics card is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti.
Re: Minotaur Arcade Vol 1 (Gridrunner/Goatup)
That invulnerability is a huge help. Some of those levels in the mid-thirties are evil and very long. I finally got through the one with the water melons which opened a gateway to some slightly easier levels that bagged me my first million point score. I need a lay down and a cool drink now....Markie wrote:I was trying to find the quickest way to complete level one, not the high score way but fast all the same, all at the top ...

With the latest drivers My 1080 TI allows full screen with F1. The game is crippled though because it wont let me choose resolutions suitable for the monitor.bcass wrote:Just bought this but it isn't letting me play full screen.

Re: Minotaur Arcade Vol 1 (Gridrunner/Goatup)
User cerb on the Steam forum is lamenting the same issue and also asking if the devs are checking the Steam forum. I'm not 100% sure where, if anywhere LS are responding to issues. It seems we have four places:The ghost of raids past wrote:With the latest drivers My 1080 TI allows full screen with F1.

Re: Minotaur Arcade Vol 1 (Gridrunner/Goatup)
The official support forums that PVB were linking are as dead as a door nail. Almost no one was able to register there.
The obvious support place would be the Steam Forums since that is where the games are being sold. If so it would make sense for PVB, if he wants it, to be made a moderator there so his posts look official.
Finding the Yak Yak forums is also not a great place to support the games for the general population.
I would suggest some effort is needed though to support the game.

Re: Minotaur Arcade Vol 1 (Gridrunner/Goatup)
I'd agree with all of that and that the Steam forums seem the best place but that's down to LS. I'm happy (as I'm sure others are) to field any questions there and I can turn what look like genuine problems into issues on the Mantis bug tracker but at the end of it all things will need a response from Jeff or Ivan, directly or through a proxy, as to what might be fixed.

Re: Minotaur Arcade Vol 1 (Gridrunner/Goatup)
As mentioned previously, Giles was getting swamped with spambot registrations over there and gave up on it as a poor job which is unfortunate as obviously it's the first place people will look.The ghost of raids past wrote:The official support forums that PVB were linking are as dead as a door nail.

I did offer some time ago to admin the registrations and let Giles focus on the support but I no longer have an admin login on that forum so Giles would need to enable that first before I can do anything there.
Obviously it would be way better to have the support focused there in one place as it's the first place people are likely to go after Steam, and even if they do find YY ideally we don't really want to water down the community aspect of this place with a bunch of people just registering to whine about tech issues.

Re: Minotaur Arcade Vol 1 (Gridrunner/Goatup)
I’m hoping, as this is a llamasoft release where the guys have more control/fewer hoops to go through, that they can up their game a little with patches/bug fixes...
Do hate to see the negatives get in the way of great software.
