The first public version of Darkness Falls: A Dire Venture is ready for release! It has been fun, sometimes frustrating, but still fun to work on this sequel and I hope you enjoy the fruits of my labors. I also want to thank all my beta testers for a job well done. Couldn't have done it without you ;) It would not have been the same without your constructive criticism and encouragement!

The mission can be downloaded from these locations:

Enjoy!

p.s: Those of you who are still playing the beta and meant to e-mail me with a report please don't hesitate despite this release!

Nice mission. I got the feeling at the end that there might be a sequel or maybe there should be; I'm hoping that there will be. I felt that it was very much a thiefy feeling mission which is good and also this is probably the least buggy, if any, fm I've played in a while. Great job! Now go and make another!

Very nice. I particularly liked the lighting also the architecture. I had a fun morning playing through this, thanks :)

I wasn't able to finish the mission, the loot objective didn't check, even though I got more than enough. So I'd like to ask if the mission ends [SPOILER]with getting to the gate using the warden's key, after visiting the keeper library. If yes, is there another mission incoming, that will finish the story ? Or did I miss something obvious ?[/SPOILER]

Hmm it should check. On which difficulty setting did you play when this occured? I will look into it, nevertheless.

[SPOILER]Yes, there are plans for a new mission. A Dire Venture is merely the second part in a series.[/SPOILER]

I played it on medium, no sweat.:p
I don't think it's such a big issue, it isn't that important objective anyway (for me at least...).
BTW it was a great mission, both design and gameplay were really good. Looking forward to the third part :thumb:
