Title: When September Ends- Part One Under Way! Started work again!!!
Post by: KrisMacDee on Sat 28/05/2005 19:14:37
Hey this is Bigmac 8) This is my new game When September Ends !The plot is as follows-:
A young scottish boy Chris catches a glimpse of the gadget ofÃ,  his dreams. A kind of VR helmet that takes him into games and tv programmes! But when he tests it out it goes horribly wrong!

RightÃ,  that's enough telling, I better start showing. :D

Main Character's Room with a special guest...

NEW!
Chris is threatened by a person we all love to hate.

Right guys this is as far as I have got(Working Rooms) and basically I have just started. ButÃ,  I will keep you updated.

p.s This game will have Family Guy style comedy(e.g. Completely Random!)ie This is not a completely serious game.
See ya! ;D

UPDATE!!! 07/06/05
I am currently at the stage of making a demo of the game. It will not be very long but hey, it's better than nothing

UPDATE!!! 15/07/05
Okay guys! Thanks to the combined loss of time of my two week holiday just there and the studying for the fourth year prelims, the demo release has been postponed. I will try to finish it in any spare time I have but there's no promises.

Update!!!  23/11/05
I thought I would add a rough percentage of how I'm getting on.
- graphics 35%
- puzzles 42%
- scripting 35%
- music/sound 90%

Just a suggestion, you don't appear to have any shading.  It will help your graphics a lot.  Unless you want everything to look flat. :=

Other than that it sounds good.

 Thanks Every 1Ã,  Ã,  :)

Cluey I'm guessing your talking about the Billy Joe from Green Day, I never noticed the similarities before.
monkey_05_o6- cheerz for your suggestion but I'm not really looking to do shading. Animation in this resolution is hard enough.
Totoro- By Unique you mean the storyline, yeah?

Again thanks for all comments, especially the ones about his face.

I'm just posting to say that there has been a new screenshot posted. And also if anyone was wondering, I called the game 'When September Ends' because I decided to use the song by green day as it's theme tune.Don't tell them! :-[

p.s I know the guitar looks pretty messed up.

EDIT: I have put a lot more effort into to this room than others.

But I must inform you that the song "When September Ends" is referring to 9/11...

No, no it is not (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wake_Me_Up_When_September_Ends#Song_information). ;)

[lgm] - I'm shocked!!!

DO NOT dig up old threads!!
If you're interested in an old thread* about a project don't post asking about the progress.  Send a PM to the game's author.  If the project has been cancelled and/or abandoned there's no point in bumping the thread!

Shame shame!!

Hello again!Ã,  ;D
now that my prelims have started I have study leave!(YAAY!!)
So now I might have time to get this product started up again. I have started work on it again, doing sprites and backgrounds. I have now found joy in the wondrous world of flash. I was wondering would it be possible to put a flash movie within the game? And if not would it be possible to convert a flash file into a GIF or something within flash itself?
It would be good if anyone could help me with this. PM me if you can help me!

Well anyway, GOOD TO BE BACK!!!
BigmacÃ,  ;)
