I really hate how in most games it's like, oh, someone saw you kill someone? EVERY ONE KNOWS NOW!
Will it be diffrent in this game? Can I kill someone and then murder the witnesses? Can I wear a mask so no one knows who the killer was, etc?

Damn it, you are getting me hyped.
Awesome :D

Thank you both, I try :).

I'm going try to be an assassin too. I always wanted to do that in DF adventure mode but since everyone instantly knows what you did it's no fun.

I agree, it's rubbish when everyone magically knows. It will absolutely be different; if nobody sees, nobody knows. I love the idea of masking your face; balaclavas, helmets, whatever. I will 100% implement that!

When I played it, the only things I could do were walk around, collect equipment, and get killed by cyclopses.I never found any humans, wolves, etc,couldn't choose skills, and the version said .0.1.0 instead of .3. It MIGHT be my computer, but I tried clicking both .rar and .zip and it had the same problem.

That's correct; it wouldn't have said .3, I'm working on .2 now! .1 was the barest of bare alphas (though there were wolves, actually!) but 0.2 is going to be a big jump in terms of combat, skills, and general functionality. And no more cyclopes to murder you!

Thanks! I'm getting hyped myself about the 0.2 release; everything is cleaner, clearer, more complete, with a load of new features and a much clearer 'direction' to the same. And no random cyclopes butchering you every few seconds. Makes me realize that even among alpha versions, some versions are "more alpha" than others, so to speak...

For me, the first version was only for showing off the combat and it met my expectations. I even managed to kill a couple of cyclops :D

Well, that's good to hear - especially about the cyclopes, especially as they're now extinct! A tragedy :(.

Genocide of cyclopes was ruthless but necessary!
