From a dusty old blueprint...

...to a brilliant new video game!

 

Magnetic Billiards: Seriously Casual (PC)

Early video footage from the PC alpha version

In-game help system

(Apologies for the poor sound quality at the start of this video.)

This video demonstrates some of the extensive in-game help available.

The player can click on pretty much anything to bring up a detailed explanation. All the help information is extensively hyperlinked so its easy to find out what a particular term means.

As well as the user operated help, there's also an interactive help system where 'Dr Stilly' will appear at appropriate moments to explain what's happening. Obviously, this will happen quite a lot when you first start playing (hence this video showing a new player starting from scratch). For those who don't like being interrupted, the interactive help can be switched off at any time. We're planning 3 modes; Apprentice mode, where various game elements are unlocked in sequence as the player progresses, Standard mode (shown in video) where all features are unlocked and explained as they occur and Expert mode where there are no interruptions.

Very early prototype

An early demo version of the game, showing the lush graphics, and Victorian theme.
