Game Making with Plexius
Hey!
I wanted to say that i am making a Oddworld game. It's going to use sprites made by Axryl, If i am spelling his name right. I have asked him for permission to use his sprites, hopefully he still signs in :o. Anywho, back to the subject, I am going to be working on this pretty much all day sence I have nothing better to be doing. Also, im sure SligStorm you still login, I saw your sprites you made and i have a idea for your character, If i use your sprite, i was thinking of making your sligstorm guy a rogue slig that trys to help abe get access to w/e in the level etc etc. Just a idea still thinking of levels and situations to put Abe in at the moment, but I am getting alot of sprites and making a few for landscape and levers and things like that. Anyone that wishes to help, You are free to just post your ideas and etc etc Anyone that helps will get credit. and Everytime i have a new level done, ill update the download link for the game once i get a tester copy done. I hope this is the right place to be posting this. I Havn't thought of any names to call this game yet. But Something OddLike would be awesome. As i said, anyone that wishes to help just post :D also, sligstorm, im pming you now xD |
Very interesting, but I can't really say anything besides that.
Maybe you should've created this thread when you had done something to show us? No offense meant, but this thread really serves no purpose besides general idea-rambling of a game that may never exist. |
Yeh I made this mistake three times, I got 1/2 way through each game each one better than before but I never finished any
|
I think Splat actually made a rule about posting fan-games without anything to show...
|
Oh..My bad then, i didnt know that i couldent post any games w/o anything to show..=\
EDIT: I will probably have something to show in my next post or so. Promise :D. Hopefully, ill have at least 1 level with shit working right :P |
Allright well good luck
|
What kind of program are you intending to make this game with?
|
I'll hold my breath till a screenshot is out, but good luck.
|
Gamemaker, im experienced with this, ive made 3d games with it, i wanted to make a abe 3d but that will take AGES! and yes alex, ill get you ur screenies
|
programs like gamemaker just sucks. As far as i know their capabilities are very limited. You can create more modding other game but it will require more skill (If you aren't super talented, then it is really hardo to do alone)

I agree heavily with Farteuss as I'm yet to see a fan-game here that has reached completion.
Plexius, if you're interested in making an Oddworld fan-game I highly suggest you join the FanWerkz team (http://tabbicat.co.uk/forums/forumdi...hp?13-FanWerkz) and convince us to keep going. The Fanwerkz team is low on progression and I'd like to see that change. And yes, Oddey, you are correct. Slat did pass a rule against posting fan-games without content. Here's the proof: :
Oh, and good luck with your game. ;) Blessed be, ~Carnix |
What happened to Hollowcarnix?
:

I think you may need other sprites. Carnix had a thread, I'd assume he'll let you use them. |

Very useful thread. Be sure to rep Joshkrz when you get there. As for my sprites: Let it be known that, for the sprites given directory within the above linked thread, I no longer consider it necessary to ask for my permission for use. I would, however, humbly ask for credit as it's due and to be notified if possible how, where and when you wish to use my sprites. Please, by all means, if my sprites are ever asked about, quote me to clear things up. :) Blessed be, ~Carnix |
Good luck Plexius. It's been said before, but Game maker isnt' very good for making anything more than a simple minigame. But even so, I suppose that with a lot of hard work and dedication you can churn out a decent fangame. I just hope you stay committed to the project, because I've tried to make a game with GM a long time ago, and after getting really excited and planning the game I managed to make one level, and then realised that I have no knowledge of basic programming, and no talent for drawing.
Hope to see some screens or something soon, and could we see some examples of the 3D games you've made in the past? |
Okay, well i used to be a fan of Naruto, kinda still am, and me and like 3 ppl were working on a game, i got alot of the 3d done, but i couldent get it quite right, like on some halfs of the buildings it would crap out and you could see through one side or its mising a side and i needed to increase the brightness in it, ill have a screenie of the oddgame here soon. working on a level now and i need a lever sprite so imma make one of those.anywho, heres the picture of the 3d game i was working onhttp://img15.imageshack.us/img15/105...etatestpic.png
EDIT: I know it's a bit off topic, but ppl asked xD |
Aww, so you have game making experience, fantastic, good luck! see tabbicat forums in google! We are oddworld game makers collectively and would be happy to have you!
|
ahh!! My eyes!! It hurts!! ;P
This poor textures is fault of gamemaker? I mean: those are original textures included to this gamemaker? |
Oh I thought you just hated naruto.
|
Yeah, i made a account on there already i think, Plexius is the name too i beleive.
EDIT: Off topic question, anyone know where i can get a trainer for AO? im seeing how fast i can beat the game lol |
no such thing I don't believe, it has the timer on your game save. At least on PS1 version anywho
