Shodian's WIP topic

[Rockman]

Huh.. didn't think this stage was still being made.

Sho.. a nitpick

In the "Light" version make the tiles match ;-;

Use your first two screens as a ref. 2nd screen where the hand comes out. Left and right of that [those land... bits] how they look rounded where the ones in the light just do a straight falloff.

[Shodian]

Dang...this took me fricken 8 hours to make, dunno why though. lol, here's a small clip of it in action.

Don't worry, luigi didn't die, he just got really big boo-boos. Also, in case you're wondering you will be able to get out of Tallman's grasp through button mashing. I just disabled it for the video.

[TheomanZero]

. . . Will that screen actually show up in the game?

It depends if it'll make you crap your pants or not. Mwhahahaha!

[MegaSergio92]

Oh fuck...

I think I'm gonna pass... *Backs off*

[JDogindy]

Oh fuck...

I think I'm gonna pass... *Backs off*

I've already said "no" on the Quake stage.  I'm certainly backing off of this.

Hell, I had to summon up all the courage to finish "Dead Air" in SMF.  I don't think I can try "8 Days a Fusion".

[Finlander]

Oh dang
We goin' to scarytown now
Things're 'bout to get FREAK-AYYYYH etc.

[Din]

Shodian: If you don't disable the pause button during that encounter and make it so that whenever the player presses said button, "It hurts" appears on the screen, I'm afraid I will have to hurt you.

Alright, that was a lie.  It'd likely be rather scrappy design if you were to screw with the player's interface in a single, unimportant level anyway.

I'm looking forward to this stage, though.  I love Chzos Mythos, and I want to see what you come up with.

(Y'know, an alternative to the aforementioned suggestion might be to have it, at some unassuming point in the level, flash to that vicious screen you showed and "jump-scare" the player.)

What can I say?  I love horror.

[Slit_Zurifa]

This looks very nice Sho!
Only thing I would actually suggest to change is the red coloured bg that can also be seen in Tower of Babel. I still do not know what it actually pictures. Hmm yeah, except for that it is very impressive!

[Shodian]

So in the level you'll meet a girl, who bear no resemblance to peach whatsoever, who's husband was attacked by an unknown force and left to suffer. You explore the palace and find this room! She follows you and grabs the Freehorn key!



It's a merge of a SMB2 key and Freehorn's blade. She feels that this will set her husband free and will make him better.



OMFG LOOK OUT BEHIND YOU!



*SIGH* Well can't say I didn't warn you. Now DeFoe has the key and we need to defeat him. How I wonder...



Oh SNAP! DeFoe can climb the ladders after us?!? What trickery is this. I have a feeling if he gets his hands on us he'll rip out our...ur, don't think about it. Just RUN!



Maybe these can help somehow...?

Ehehehehe~

On-topic: Looking good show! Can't wait to see the whole level in action.

The only thing that bothers me is how much the Tallman and DeFoe clash with their artstyles compared to the other characters...

May I try my hand at redoing them?

I'm going to need the original sprites as reference thoe.

[Aura]

While you are at it, go fix the clashing in the rest of the game.

I will have to say no, It was nice that Yahtzee allowed us to use his work in our game, it'd be nice to keep his original work in there as well. imo

[Rukifellth]

Oh, he gave permission to use them? Awesome.

Oh, and Aura, sure I can try my hand at fixing the clashing styles, where do I start?
