    I have played this, but over 20 years ago!!! Eeek! 

    Special number 10.....hmmm just a guess but makes features super?

    I'll download soon and have a play about.

    I remember this being a bit more annoying than most Impulses, so will be interesting to re play it after twenty years of battle hardening sessions. You know once you've had a Black Knight take over a grand for one pick no win for the umpteenth time when purple is there then this will probably seem very tame, but at the time I can remember it being very agitating.

    Thanks in advance woodsy

     

     

    That’s the 2 quid stake for the bonus with the minimum first two of three middle reels bringing in the knights

    Thank you for this one. How frustrating is it when it gives you one nudge, so you go higher than a 4 and it gives you a 1. Gotta love these machines :D

    I'm glad it's not real money I'm losing lol

    It does so let em spin if you don’t have a win there sometimes that’s worth a try!! I left a quid In it for you too ;)

    The positive comments are well deserved :) The actual colour doesn't matter too much so long as the contrast is quite strong. I've gone for pure white on high-voltage which is perfectly readable but might look a bit artificial to some people.

    Ok I’ll bear that in mind for future layouts, but you know how to change them now on any that you need to, if you need any more help with anything just ask way mate. Thanks again

    Thank you.

    What a lovely looking layout. It is clear that you have put a lot of effort into it :)

     

    My eyesight isn't as good as it once was. Do you know if there is a setting to make the blue text display a little brighter?

    S

    Yes mate, press ctrl+E the toolbar will turn red, then right click on the alpha display bar, it will open up the properties, then you can choose your own colour and press apply. Any probs p.m. me and I’ll do some screenshots to help

    Hiya. Congratulations and thanks for your second release.

    Playing it reminded me of when I was doing my first releases and I pushed myself with each one to get better and better.

    The only criticism is that the layout is quite small and difficult to see. When I do the full screen of it, it blurs a lot of it (normal for small layouts that are stretched to full screen). My early releases did that and my older laptop wasn't very good resolution and kept crashing on me.

    Feedback I received when I started doing mine was to start off with a large layout, as big as you can and the best quality you can find. My early ones sometimes were made up of 2 or even 3 images where I put the middle on top of the bottom then the top on top of that. I learned various other things with GIMP (Gnu Image Manipulation Program) that makes it easier to edit them as well.

    Keep up the good work and learning is always good :D

    thanks mrm!! love your feedback as it'as always helpful!!!

    as for the image size i totally understand, i have a old laptop so am restricted with sizes... or so i thought.. the layout i'm working on now with vec's help, what i'd really like to know is what you think of the size on my next release... i'm not au fai with things like resolution etc so depending on the outcome of layout #3 the changes are a coming!!! thanks again mrm

    When I do mine, I create 2 layout files, one is a dark one and the next is brighter with contrast increased slightly, so it looks like it's a light glow and then use a mask, like this one. :)

    It's all experimental and what works for you. There's lots of awesome talent on here and your first attempt is really good :D

    Thanks I was wondering how to make a OFF AND ON version to start from because I had to change each  lamp from a quite bright place and that made it hard to be honest, I think this will help loads thanks as I saw a wip that was basically off and dark which would slow for the lamps to be much better contrasted!! Again great feedback and that’s exactly how I’ll learn

    Thank you for your first ever release. You've done really well :D

    One thing I noticed is that when the Monopoly symbols lit, they seemed to be slightly out of alignment with the unlit version. Not sure if that's just my eyes or not.

    I look forward to seeing your next one, Arcadia :). When it's a favourite machine you're doing, like I did when my first one was Volcano, you can only get better and better the more you do them.

    Welcome to the community and I'm sure we will all help whenever we can and when you need it!

    Thanks for the feedback, I agree with you there I tried to use multiple lamps (be clever) but one would of looked nicer I think!! Thanks again really appreciate your comments
