Each month there'll be some random thoughts here and a sneaky "keyhole" peek at a scene from the actual game.
Introducing my Chief Test Pilot,
Penny.
Without Penny's encouragement, thoroughness and painstaking testing,
Magnetic would be a far lesser creation. Let me share some of her words with you -
I'm sure you'll accept my choosing from her positive remarks!
"Of course this was after a week, off and on, of trying to win. ****** is really a challenge and definitely draws you in. It has gone from my least favorite game to my very favorite game in Magnetic. All the mechanics of the game work well. Graphics and sound in the game are excellent. The animation reward is a wonderful idea and effect."
"A newspaper article leads you to believe that these objects have been hidden on the island and were not supposed to be found for some reason. What are these objects? What is their purpose? Is there a conspiracy to keep these objects hidden from the outside world? If so why? This article certainly peaks your interest and makes you wonder."
"The painting on the rock looks aboriginal and looks as if it was put there for a purpose. Can't click on the painting. I am searching the area around it for a hot spot. In searching the area, the pointer turns into a flower over the trunk of a tree very near the rock. The turtle painting must have been put there to mark a certain area where something may have been hidden. But what and by whom?"
