- For me, the humor was somewhat hit or miss. I didn't care for the mindflayer at the end who tells me to do what I've already done (I mean, I get the joke, I just didn't like being ordered around even if I /had/ just done it) but I laughed out loud at the "Penguin Job" explanation. Feel free to chalk this one up to subjective humor
- Decent combat. Bosses were fairly challenging but not overkill
More general notes / bugs:
- What's the deal with the wolf at the beginning?
- Jonder's summoned guys beat up on him, too. This is because any friendly NPC is always regarded as a valid target by Encounters. To fix this, you can have him disappear after summoning the monsters then reappear afterward, or just work it into the humor (e.g. "Not me, you idiots, kill THEM!"
- In next map, I spawned on top of the treasure chest
- Wendell is labeled "Ashmadi Warlock 1"

Just played through your map also. The I died twice to the Magma / Forgecaller combo's they are tough as a Guardian Fighter and on the last fight they knock me into a corner and I couldn't get away because I was boxed in. I enjoyed the humor.
My map is also a comedy, but I guess a bit more... insane? Check it out if you have time, takes about 10 mins also:
Solo if you have a decent amount of potions/a healer companion. 40 minutes long, mostly story but some difficult boss fights with some sidequests / easter eggs.
1) Really? A giant boil on his rear?
2) During the combat mobs are fighting Jonder Frahill. You might want to de-spawn him during the combat and bring him back after.
3) I do like the invisible wall transition.
4) I did find fire enemies in a wooden orc decorated structure a bit jarring. Would a custom map have been better? If not, you might want to have more things on fire, and a lot more fire fx.
5) In said structure the magma beast and the forgecaller were stuck in the low ceiling.
6) "Wendell" was still named "Ashmodai Warlock 1"
7) That ending with the mindflayer was really .... surreal. I think that's a word that will pass this forum's censors.
Still, it was a very interesting adventure and I enjoyed it alot.

Thanks so much for the feedback. I didnt realize that Jondor was being attacked too...I'll have to remember that! I kinda rushed the combat because I was more focused on the story....the second map shows that badly. I wish I could go back and fix that second map.
The wolf at the beginning is the Big Bad Wolf from "The Three Little Pigs"...he hurt his bum too...Did anyone catch what the homeless guy was saying?
You didn't actually rid either of the gangs. you just approached the boss (the spawns were only minions, not actual members). your focus was to help get Benjamin out of his "bind"...not kill the gangs!
The mind-flayer plays a big part in the next part of this quest chain. Be prepared for a crazy turn of events (and better fx, combat and mob placement :P)
Thanks again for all the reviews...wrote down all the quests and will do them today or tomorrow!
