Questions to New Buyers

[Grink]

Hi, I've been following the Steam release of Lili since discovering it on Greenlight. I'm very interesting in getting the game.

From announcements made by the developers, I get the impression they've worked hard to get this in a great state for PC release and put a lot effort into this version. That's great! However I'm still cautious about buying a port of a mobile game, especially at £15. Releases like Deus Ex: The Fall make me very nervous about how awful a mobile port can turn out.

There are no reviews or previews of the PC version that I can find and currently no YouTube footage available. If anyone can answer them, I have some questions:

1) What are the resolution options for the game?

2) What graphics options are available? Are there reasonable options for anti-aliasing? Can v-sync be turned on or off?

3) What are the saving options like? Is there a single continuous save (common on mobile games) or at least 1 or 2 slots?

4) How are the controls and tutorial messages? Do they seem mobile focused? The store page says they have overhauled UI elements for this release, which is a great sign, but I still would like to ask. I plan to use an XBox 360 pad.

That's it. If anyone who buys the game could upload a small amount of gameplay footage to YouTube that would be amazing.

Thanks to anyone who can help and that you enjoy your new game!

Currently the game has options for 720p,1080p, your monitor's native resolution, and your current desktop resolution (fullscreen windowed)

We have Low, Medium, High, Highest which conveniently drop off various detail settings. However, if you are interested in tuning specific settings like vsync and the like you are able to do so via the config file.

Currently there is one continuous save, but we plan to add more slots in an update.

Tutorial and UI are all compeltely PC centric. (as is the control scheme). You will be able to do everything in the game with the controller except the flower game. We may add controller support for the flower game in an update as well if people are intertested in it.

Thanks for answering my questions. Exactly what I wanted to hear.

I would recommend adding in controller support for the Flower game. I can easily imagine many PC gamers finding it irritating to switch between input methods. Maybe if it happens once or twice, or is an optional mini-game, it won't be too much of an issue. If the Flower game comes up frequently and switching controls is mandatory then it might be something people will become critical of.

Good luck with the launch!

Yeah, we will definitely get this into an update soon.

Hello there

Will there be an option to switch off VSync, Anisotropic Filtering or Anitaliasing in one of the next Patches ? Or could you perhaps give me the location of the config file ? Im having a slight mouse lag which usually occurs when im using vsync and antialiasing at the same time ...

Config file can be found in My Documents\MyGames\UnrealEngine3\Config dir. Look for MazeSystemSettings.ini and search for vsync
