Title: Toonstruck 2 fan project
Post by: Cyrus on Sun 27/09/2009 09:07:42
I've recently come across the first fan project based on Toonstruck:
www.toonstruck2.com

The project is on an early stage, but even now I find it quite interesting. They've even created a YouTube trailer:

What do you think?

Sounds like fun, it's only a matter of time before every old game has it's own fan project ;)

Personally though, I really didn't like TS, I thought Lloyd's talents went to waste. This is one of the only games I bought in a shop and threw away soon after playing it (and not getting very far) - I reached the point where I just didn't care for the characters, the puzzles, any of it. Even Lloyd started to bore me which really pee'd me off!

But the best of luck to these folk - I'm sure their game will make a lot of TS fans happy!!

I would love to play a worthy sequel to Toonstruck, but I must say "created" is hardly the word for that trailer. They've simply added snippets of text to the end sequence of the original game. I don't want to sound overly negative, I do hope they realise their goals in time. I feel that perhaps they've got ahead of themselves by releasing material at this stage. Hopefully it will be successful in generating interest and getting people to joint the project.

There was some progress on the project, so I updated my post.

One of the project's members has made a small demonstration in Visionaire. It's still pretty rough, and at this stage is more of a test than a game, but still worth a look: http://youtu.be/_eV7jvFIrYo (the voiceover is in Arabic)
