Instrutilus

Quick question for you. I'd like to try an experiment with a group of people. As we already have such a group here, I'd like to make one of two maps: either Wing Fortress Zone or the Angel Island completely, and restrict those involved to that. Before we perform such an experiment, I'll need to build one of the maps in SP Tekkit, so which would you like to be confined to?

Join uuuus...Instrutilus Industries is already working on the beer.

So, I was playing on the server, getting the materials from my house for putting down the final layer for the Naoshi Network, when I noticed some familiar purple specks. I thought an Enderman was on my roof, so I hoped up to check and saw this: Enderspecks everywhere. Yu and Zu came to check, but they saw nothing. Anyone got any ideas what's happening?

Sope, how's everyone enjoying the Tekkit server?

Why not simply make specific sprites for the gimmicks, like Lilac grabbing hold of the cage and using it to launch herself into a run? Personally, I prefer the idea of her going into a baseball slide. I also think you should include a crawl option, like Solid Snake, to help further differentiate the characters.

So how IS this going to be organised this anyway? Are we going to stick to one city or shall we section off lands for people to do as they please? o3o

And RedPower 2 iirc. Though I'm thinking, if it is Tekkit we choose, we should set up individual lands so people don't start building quarries over other people's houses :L

I have a request: is anyone halfway decent at Source Filmmaker? Just, I've an Sonic story I really want to transfer into movie format, but no experience and I fear my lack of experience with the program, despite it's apparent ease of use, will hinder it's look. Otherwise, I'll have to make do with a comic format, such as this: Just a basic sketch, but I think I'll need huge improvement...

Why don't we just make a Tekkit server: I'm really enjoying that mod pack and I'd love to play on that over a simple vanilla server. If we do, I call monopoly on ICPower supply (aka, I get to set up IndustrialCraft Power Station).

Yeah, I have no clue why I put Sonic in, other then the fact I find their interaction amusing (I imagine it as like a father-daughter relationship since this game uses Sonic Worlds =P). I probably should have used Samus since Metroid's one of the more speedrunning-loved games as well... Hey, there's another comparison. Hell, Lilac's airdash move reminds me of the Shinespark :L

Fitting that I'm a boy, then. Don't worry, I'm well aware my handwriting is horrid, I'll edit the post to type.

Yeash, so many speedruns...How do you feel, Lilac? Poor poor Carol... (I apologize for doodling Freedom Planet characters again, I've been using them to get back creativity after depression destroyed it...) EDIT: Lilac: So...many...speedruns... (should I feel bad that I'm glad they picked Carol this time?) Sonic: Welcome to the world of gaming. Be glad you're (misspelled, damn) not Mario... Mario (offscren) NOT A KAIZO! ANYTHING BUT THAT! Sonic: Poor guy... Lilac: -whimper- (also misspelled, what was wrong with me at that point?)

Have you ever seen Egoraptor's Sequelitis of Mega Man? Take lessons from that and subtly teach the player that instead of making it blatantly obvious.

Make it the number of votes you did get by the date for a little in-joke. Like if you get 953 votes, have the time you need to beat be "1:35:30". Or more, I'm unsure as to the length of the levels at the present moment since they appear to take you a good 3 minutes at least, but you tend to run around grabbing everything to show it off. A good speedrunner might compress it significantly. Now, to withdraw to the shadows and watch this project from afar, like se hrérmús mon.

Well, just give people who voted a code to unlock Carol in the demo? Reward those that voted, little game for those willing to try and guess the code.

... <one quick bored doodle later> I love FeliciaVal's work. You should get her to do a promotional comic, like the good ol' days where game companies would make promo comics, or like Valve's work :L

The arms look odd, can't really explain it, the side of the head away from the camera looks too protrusive and Sonic looks like he's looking up instead of ahead. Fix then and it's golden < .

Why not make an alternate pathway for Carol that only she can get to? Y'know, make the game more diverse for alternate characters then simply compensating for lack of abilities on routes not designed for them?

I can be on at any point after today. If you can get on, tell me when.

Not entirely sure where to put this thread, so eh. I've Sonic and SEGA All-Stars on the Wii, but the Expert Difficulty is too easy. I find other players more fun, yet no one seems to play the game anymore so could we perhaps set up a SFGHQ SaSAR Wii Tournament or something? Perhaps one of us could record and out it on Youtube for the fun of it :L

Going for a crystal theme, eh? =P Perhaps you should give your characters crystal surnames, like "Lilac Amethyst" and "Carol Geode" :L I jest, I look forward to both the video and the SAGE demo :3

Whoo, August 6th, a birthday present! Btw, not sure if you've answered this, but I'm too lazy to check: do you plan to replace rings and such in order to make the game more original. I could imagine rings being replaced by orbs of light, so I'm curious as to what's happening with the more-Sonicy elements of Freedom Planet.

I know it's an extra, I just hate the utilization of the SRB2 engine for it. So offputting. Regardless, I'll cease it.

...what? Never seen a first attempt at this before?

...I'll take your word on it. I look forward to working with you, TailsSena :3
