Wizeman's got the perfect voice actor, though, hands down.

T^T Then, after a heartfelt family reunion, we'd boil NiGHTS in a one-way bubble as the Aquarium turns black and red. Mwahaha!! X3

Of course, unless you're a lawyer, it's hard to rationalize legal jargon into something like that. XD I'm hoping for the best.
You haven't been on when I'm on, I guess- I get little time to chat since I have to work on the project anyway. PM me a time- again, we shouldn't discuss chatting on the forum. XD
#49425 Is it just me or does NiGHTS play favorites?

Oh, and drawn millions of times in the delicious stylings of TRiPPY, of course.
I'm currently in the process of negotiation with SEGA- I hope they take kindly to it being purely of the fans for the fans and nothing else. *doesn't want to be arrested*

So don't worry- it will be done. ^w^ I wanna' show you some models, but they're not all done yet! *impatient, but needs to do a good job*

I'm getting a tablet PC at the end of the week, too, so that should increase my productivity and motivation to push my friends aside every now and again to work more on the engine. Currently, the engine is just a simple 360 directional dot with trails behind and rings that shrink and disappear when you pass through them, including ones that hurt if you don't get through fast enough. So yeah, that only took me a day. XD
That's a bad thing, though- when a project's simple for me, sure it's easier to make, but it makes me complacent at times. Don't worry, though- I'm definitely devoted to this project. I'm sure I'll have a beta out by the end of May, if not earlier, since it's not really going to be that difficult to finish one by then. If I didn't have work next week I could get it out by the end of it.
Once I move into my own apartment, I'll have plenty of time for this project. ^,^ And a tablet. Seriously, with a tablet how could you NOT be modelling nonstop? *so excited*

So yeah, I'm going to wait until I have all three done so I can show off. I don't like doing WIP shots, since they're just not all that professional. It's been a really busy week at work, but I'm getting there. My main problem is that I live with a very overzealous and jealous friend that doesn't wanna' let me work on stuff. Good thing I'm moving out soon- I'll finally have some real ALONE TIME. *being driven insane*
At least my friends love me, I guess. But I need time for my hobbies.

Some funny names on that list, by the way. I'm thinking of calling it NiGHTS Online : Something Something.
Anywho, it's late- I'll update you all tomorrow!

#46924 The Octopaw topic!
Posted by Murder's Last Crow on 12 April 2008 - 11:04 PM in [ARCHiVED] JOD Discussion
PBS meets SEGA.
2. Do you, or do you not like Octopaw?
Avast ye, land lubbers! HE STOLE ME HAT! Harpoon the devil!
3. Have you ever had a dreams about Octopaw?
Yeah. He was red and black and very, very dangerous. Ever watched legions of squid feed on a single human? Very similar experience.
4. What would you do if the next NiGHTS game was completely dedicated to "unraveling the mystery of Octopaw?"
Unravelling the Allergy of Octopaw? I'd rent it.
5. Do you believe that Octopaw are closer to marens or pians, or are they a seperate creature?
Maren, methinks.
6. What is one question you'd like to ask Octopaw?
Why didn't you go away after the first mission you were in? Did you misintepret the phrase, "recycling is good for the environment"?
7. Give me one random Octopaw - related thought.
Plushy plz! *turns into a rabid fanboy*

And seeing as how NiGHTS means so much to me, I don't see why it wouldn't be the same with this. In fact, maybe it's good I don't have a girlfriend to distract me from it? XD
But that's definitely true- I once decided to make a NiGHTS prequel and starting doing models and all, but I quit for the other game I made which actually got me some good money. I'm glad I have your support with this- I'm getting ready to amaze you all, nao. I'm sure you'll love the art and it'll make you suffocate out of freakish need to have the game. XD MAHA! *is eville*
That model is OLD! I think I'll just do it now. I just need to get a mouse, since modelling with the lappy pad is possible but not the best when you want creative freedom. By the way, it's going to be classic NiGHTS, not JoD NiGHTS *so mean*.

I'll start with NiGHTS. I could show you all a model of NiGHTS I did two years ago- back when I wasn't all THAT good, and it was just a test anyway, so the face wasn't much more than textured. Buttchess, I'll show you anyway, just to tie you over until I give you a new one.
The new one's gonna' be a lot more stylish and chibi-awesome. Maren with real attitude.
http://murderslastcr...xtured-55047741
REALLY old. Notice that I uploaded this a year ago from my OLD account, so it's likely more than 2 years old. I've improved a lot since then, even created a videogame. That's just some irrelevant eyecandy. I repeat, IRRELEVANT EYECANDY! OLD! I'M MUCH BETTER NOW!
^w^ I'll update again for you, soon. Is it possible that TRiPPY doesn't know this is happening?

So yeah, definitely going to do NPCs. However, not sure if I'll have NiGHTS as an NPC. It feels like that might degrade the purpose of your character if NiGHTS is already just sitting around. So yeah, everyone has their own maren and stuffage.
Since it's an online game, though, I guess I won't be creating an 'ending'. I could create a mock ending that doesn't really end things because it adds more at the end just to tick you all off, eventually. XD
I'm gonna' love doing this. Oh, and it turns out I'll have enough money at the end of the week, so I might start modelling TODAY. OwO OH NOES!
Oh, and I guess I could show you WIP shots of models and stuff. Just don't expect to see finished, polished, diabolicality until a bit later.
Also, the programming probably won't start until I have all the animations ready to import, but at that point I'll be able to offer an awesome first-look first-play demo. It may or may not have paralooping, but eh.
I'm gonna' love letting you change the particle for your trails, including what it does when you finish a loop. Fiery stars, creating an explosion when it closes. Water drops, creating a waterfall at the end of a loop.
^w^ I can't believe no one thought of this earlier. XD

OwO Anywho, back to the subject at hand.
The difference between running an an IP and a server is basically how many users it can handle. It should be pretty lag-free, but using one's IP is just like having a private server, except it takes up the user's bandwidth, instead of a server's bandwidth.
So yeah, I hope that's understandable enough. Sorry that development isn't starting as soon as you guys would like, but I'm doing what I can for the time being.

Also, I do freelance 3d modelling to make my bills, and I'm finally starting a new job on Friday (probably tomorrow for most of you reading this). So I need to make a little extra with freelance before too long, and that's why I'm saying I'm not modelling quite yet. After my first paycheck, however, I should be more than able to pursue this game's development.
I'll start by modelling the basic Maren and Dreamer (the default is NiGHTS, even if you think that's too cool to start as), then Twin Seeds following soon after. Then the first Dream, of course.
Once I get the animations down, it'll be easier to create new heads and body types, and to port it all into the game. I will be releasing information and images of the game long before a prototype release is available, but I suspect the first prototype will be the main game without the online functionality. However, since the data will mostly be encrypted on your computer until we get a server up to store scores, usernames, and passwords, you'll be able to start work on improving your account immediately.
Also, we will have the beta versions of the online compatibility released to run on IP address alone, which should be fun. So don't expect it to be complete within the month, but do expect to see the beginnings and be able to enjoy demos along the way to the finished product. I hope that as this proceeds the community can get a grasp for the game and think of more additions to make.
Thanks again for your ongoing support. If I didn't have it, I wouldn't follow through with making this.

So yeah, I'm not entirely in the mood to start the 3d modelling process until the beginning of next week, but after that crisis I definitely need more work and things to keep me busy so I don't feel... too alone, I guess? Until I can start feeling normal again.
The normal human body can adjust to any severe crisis within a month. Seeing as how I don't have my arm lopped off or anything, I hope this won't take too much time to adapt to. Thanks for your ongoing support, and please feel free to submit any designs or ideas you still have concerning the game.
