lol, honestly, now that we mention it, I want the player to start off with the 500 rupee wallet. The prize for finding the first thief could be the larger wallet, and the prize for finding the second thief could be the very information regarding the Master Thief. (He'd tell you to look under the empty house in the town. The empty house would have a hidden staircase VERY well hidden somewhere in one of the rooms, (All the houses will have multiple rooms. All of 'em, just for consistency's sake, and to make sure the casual author knows that rooms don't need to be one room alone.) So under that house would be a note describing the thief's location in the lava area.
Unless you guys really still think that each thief should give out a wallet. I'm okay with that, I guess. I just *really* hate it when I'm at 255 rupees, and find a 200 piece rupee. X x. That could easily become the case in NeoFirst, considering how I plan to give 'em out like candy now and then.
I see no problem with that. If that is what you plan on doing.

If you're going to sell at least one of the Wallets, why not set the prices for them at the max amount of Rupees you should have? In other words, put the 1st Wallet as 255 Rupees and the Second as 500 (or however many the Big Wallet lets you hold max). That's what I always do.
... why?
Why should the player be forced to do that? Doesn't he/she have enough on their mind?
I mean, the magic shield will cost 125 rupees or so in the shop. Either you can buy the shield, or you can buy the wallet. Your choice. If you have the cash for one, you'll probably have the cash for the other. That's the sort of effect I was trying to go for there. However, since I decided that we'll be giving the small wallet to the player from the start, (Perhaps as a pickup in their house.) I see no reason to hog a store shelf with it.
Good point. It just seemed right to me to have to pay the max amount of Rupees to buy a wallet, since they can be valuable if a lot of the items in shops get more expensive as you get farther in game. Which just gave me an idea...
I just got an idea!
How about, to get the wallet, you have to beat the 3 thieves, and after you beat them, you warp to an identical screen with a string of a part of the password needed to access the part of the dungeon with the wallet upgrade, and other things. So, you have to beat all 3 to get the password.
Example:
1st: Open
2nd: Sesa
3rd: me
Password = Open Sesame.
To make the screen with the password, make tiles with the choices for the first part of the password, 1 correct, 3 incorrect. Choice 1 tile= Tilewarp "A" 2="B" etc. Make identical screens, but make the correct first choice go to a second room with
The same setup, but the tiles are the graphic of the second section. The incorrect choice goes to an identical screen, but the tilewarps all go to the next incorrect screen, and this repeats, but after the third screen, a tile pops up with the word, in red, "INCORRECT". The side warp from the side you entered the screen from should take you back to the screen before all this, for the player to try again.
Anyways, the second correct screen has 4 warps, and 1 of them will take you to the third correct screen. Get my point?
Yeah, there's my 200cents.
it makes sense johnamus... just confusing as hell and a large pain to do...
Computer specifications:
Windows 10 Pro x64 | Intel Core i7 @ 2.66GHZ | Asus P6T Motherboard | 6GB DDR3 RAM | Integrated Sound | Nvidia Geforce 560 Ti 2048MB PCI-E | Corsair AX760 Power Supply | Thermaltake Armor+ MX case
It's a great idea, but not really for NeoFirst. I mean, unless you're willing to implement this in yourself within the timespan of a week, I just can't see this happening to NeoFirst. It's a little bit too complex for people, and would raise the standards considerably.
I guess we could design it so that you can't actually reach the Master Thieve's room within his hideout until you've spoken to both thieves at that point.That's simple enough. Could be done by using that old "Identical room + event" trick, usable with room state carryovers. Very simple to do.
I like this idea!I must agree with ShadowTiger. Having to talk to both thieves first would definately add to the story and difficulty.
