My Game: Slig Patrol
 
Hello there,

I am creating a AO/AE type of game called Slig Patrol. You can download new missions off of the internet. It's cheezy, but it is the best I could do.:fuzsmile: I have used some of the animations you guys gave me, and some screenshots off of some web sites. Should I just make a credits page along with it and list all of the names of people or websites that helped me? (If you have contributed to my game, please pm me with your real name and what you made)

Where can we download it?

Xavier 05-03-2002 02:39 PM

okay, where can we see it ?

Mac the Janitor 05-03-2002 09:11 PM

Right now I am finishing it (I am working on the sounds and the menu) but you will soon see it on sligpatrol.s5.com. Here is some more info on it.

You start out as a crawling slig, and you work you way up. It goes like this: crawling, worker, flying, Big Bro, Armored Big Bro. You first choose the location, and then choose a mission. I will be frequently making new missions. Um, that's basically it...

cool i have a idea can there be crews like you and your friend work together and fight?

Mac the Janitor 05-04-2002 02:41 AM

Do you mean two-player or gamespeak?

VykerSawBones 05-04-2002 11:52 AM

yeah something like that

Xavier 05-04-2002 11:59 AM

cool principe.
I wait to see it !

Mac the Janitor 05-04-2002 09:49 PM

Well, the gamespeak function is definetly going to be in it. I could manage to pull off a 2-player, but I couldn't make it playable with other people over the internet. Does anyone else have any requests for features in my game?

Xavier 05-05-2002 04:56 AM

just a question
will there be weapons?

VykerSawBones 05-05-2002 11:59 AM

hey i have some decisions you can make Bosses of ever stage if you want

Xavier 05-05-2002 12:08 PM

maybe it couls be fun... yeah
but it wouldn't be realy oddworld then:fuzzle:

VykerSawBones 05-05-2002 12:37 PM

you have a point but those bosses can be oddworld creatures:D

Xavier 05-05-2002 01:22 PM

I have still the same point of view

Mac the Janitor 05-05-2002 01:37 PM

You won't be able to choose a weapon, but as you achieve better ranks, your weapon becomes more powerful and you can shoot or blast your way through stuff you normally couldn't. As for the bosses, I think it would be hard to think up a new boss for each stage cuz there's not that many creatures you could use as bosses in Oddworld. Each stage is just a simple task (like shoot down all of the escaping mudokons or round up some slogs) but once in a while I might make a much larger stage with a larger goal.

Xavier 05-05-2002 01:39 PM

Wow!
I think I will enjoy that game!
tell us if you need something

Mac the Janitor 05-06-2002 12:32 PM

Well, there is one thing I need... does anybody have an animation of the slig head from gamespeak?

Xavier 05-06-2002 02:23 PM

uh... I don't...
only the Abe one

MojoMan220 05-06-2002 09:57 PM

Sounds cool, can you show some pics from it, or is it too soon or something?

Mac the Janitor 05-06-2002 10:49 PM

Sure, here's some pics...

Mac the Janitor 05-06-2002 10:50 PM

another...

Mac the Janitor 05-06-2002 10:52 PM

and another...

Mac the Janitor 05-06-2002 10:53 PM

last one!:fuzgrin: :fuzgrin: :fuzgrin:

Mac the Janitor 05-06-2002 11:08 PM

Those are screens from the level I'm working on. There won't just be industrial-RuptureFarms kinds of levels, I'll make some in almost every location: Scrabania, Paramonia, Soulstorm Mines, Vykkers Labs...

MojoMan220 05-07-2002 12:16 AM

Can you add a backdrop to increase atmosphere, I'm sure the level is still being worked on. I can't wait to download it.:) :)

Mac the Janitor 05-07-2002 12:25 AM

Unfortunately, I can't add backgrounds.:fuzsad: :fuzemb: :crying: I wish I could, but the stupid program won't let me.:fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad: I know it sucks without the backgrounds. I might be able to use it in the future, though...

Xavier 05-07-2002 01:18 PM

wow, it looks realy cool...
I can't wait to play it :fuzgrin:

blood 05-08-2002 04:38 PM

problem
 
Now when I went onto your download section, I went onto the 'mainmenu' download. It did not work, it just came up with 'error, file not found', do you know what happend?

Mac the Janitor 05-08-2002 09:07 PM

:fuzsad: :fuzblink: Yeah, sorry about that. My site is still "under construction". I will tell all of you when it is ready for downloading.

Mac the Janitor 05-09-2002 01:21 PM

Does anybody have a flying slig animation? (besides the one on oddworld.com)
Also, do you have a picture of an AO/AE grenade explosion?
