The game Eruption has a very big display bug, can someone fix it?

Post by Starwarrior1128 »

The game Eruption has a very big display bug, but it has been abandoned by its original developer so he's no help, can someone come along and fix it? Unfortunately, I don't know coding or game development. The display bug is that when you try to rotate a lava tile, it does so invisibly, so you don't know which side the lava flows which is very important game mechanic. So important that it makes the game unplayable without knowing which side the tile is facing. If someone can also add an Undo button function to the game that would be great too. Thanks.

Hmmm, they said the original developer had abandoned the game, so if you file a (game-specific) bug, who would actually receive it?

I think what you had better do is try to get somebody to take over the developer role for that game. Try in the Eruption-specific forum and the Developer section below.

Good luck!

Fair point. With any luck it's similar to a display issue some dev has seen before, in which case it may be a quick-ish fix. But if not, the issue would be finding someone who loves the game enough to take it on for free (I'm assuming OP is going to pay for development). Given that this is one of the lesser played games, that's a tall order, but the Eruption forum is probably a good place to start.
