So what is happening? Will there be a 1.5 or is it just some false rumors that started like six months ago?
Thus, from the war of nature, from famine and death, the most exalted object which we are capable of conceiving, namely, the production of the higher animals, directly follows. There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.

Do want:
- User episodes / columns
- Better editor
- New levels
- Secret achievements
- Big rewards

Also, I'm new to the forum :)
I finished N a lot of time ago, and now I've restarted to play.

Nice to meet you all, ninja fans!

How about...
Customizable ninja :D
Acheivements? Like falling to death 1000 times
Bullet time? Slow down game for like 2 seconds after you hit a key but you can only use it once per how long
X-treme mode? Like drones move faster, gauss shoot faster

You can customize the ninja to any color after beating all 100 episodes.

Achievements aren't that great. The best achievement is beating all the episodes and it gives you kudos. It keeps statistics like kill count etc and that's all I really need in that regard.

Not exactly sure what bullet time means, but with nreality you can edit speeds of every object, including the ninja, drones, and the gauss firing speed.

Also in Nreality there's underclock mode, which slows down/speeds up everything in the game.

Could you guys please make an option to export/import progress to a kind of save file, so we can play on different computers without having to start over?

I think N game is a 'classic' game, sort of like chess and therefore shouldn't really be tweaked. (also avoiding risk of new problems of which there are many in N2 atm unfortunately)

Just bring the graphics up from the VCR age :)
-I understand you wont change the speed of the gameplay like you did with N2.0 so N1.5 will still be compatible with the maps made on numa etc. (I think you could increase the size of the game by a few tiles -not ruining capability as those extra tiles would just be grey when playing old maps -''Bigger and better'')

About user levels, of course just add the Editor made for N2 (with a ghost for placing thwumps -which u missed out :) ). I'll suggest not to have the same user levels 'feed' as in N2 (as exciting as it is) but a more obvious connection to numa maps -because it looks to me like numa maps has a better rating/recognition system. I'd like to see 5 star rating system increased to 10 though to make deciding what to rate as less difficult (crucially encouraging rating). The N2 user level feed is full of people just taking the mick making rubbish maps or genuine <6 year olds and esp as some good maps don't get rated and therefore not in the popular section- its hard to avoid those bad maps -making gameplay less serious (ridiculous).

About official levels -I know it may look odd but I think it'd be good to have like two sections in the game -one old 1.4levels with their highscores to be forever gawped at and one with new ones (which must be more complex than N2's ones)

thank you very much!
is this game advertised anywhere that would bring more older ppl to the game?

I posted the above ''late'' last night, seeing this for the first time and thinking they're gonna update 1.4 -because it has big differences to the new N2.0. I now see that this is an acient thread -cant this be taken down/ deleted?? they're not gonna make a 1.5 and SHOULDNT instead I want N++ to buy on PC
