Apologies :p

Woah, five days without a post. seems like you people WERE just using this to spam, huh? :kz:
In any case, I just thought I'd inform you that, since many of you will probably see them playing it anyway, yes, we have chosen three beta testers. Please do not ask to be a beta tester, they have been chosen for specific (obvious, really) reasons. So yes, just letting you know so if you see one of them on your friends list playing levels, it's not a haxors and to please not intrude on them. They are CCubbage, rtm and Morgana. Yes. And now, you must bow to my awesomeness :kz:
Hm... Yessssssssssssssh...
****, we picked beta testers already? I wasn't prepared -__-'
I guess I should pick these things up more often. And yes...Must admit, our own little spam made up a fraction of my fun here :p

I asked to be a tester like right at the start of all this, and you know, I was a sort of unofficial tester a while ago... :/
And so it begins... I guess Takelow was right <_<Quote:

... ANYWAY... think of it this way:
The game is still nowhere near done. These people are playing an unfinished product, and won't enjoy actually playing the full product and unlocking all the hidden stuff themselves. They will never be able to play and actually experience it- think about the Story mode. If you got a few incomplete levels at a time, and played them without having to unlock minigames and just being given access to incomplete minigames and told how to fix it- would it be the same thing?
... and no, Ard, hacking the key vault and making us have to republish the entire series, thus filling my pop it with tons of useless keys does NOT make you a viable beta tester >_<
Hey hey hey, it was an accident...any vault that can be opened by swinging around randomly on the switches isn't very secure :pQuote:

Meh, well, just has life stuck its twin fangs in and drained the very joy of living out of my soul, I realised it's Christmastime, and I break up next week. More time to finally get things done.
I was wondering how this project was going. I like the pics on the first post! Keep up the good work ;)
Thank you!Quote:

We've got some kind members who are currently testing the levels and offering advice and comments, which has been very welcome and helpful.
As to the levels themselves, well, you'll have to wait and see! But I think it's fair to say that ALL the levels look much better than the pictures show!

SLS10 will make level 12 as soon as he gets everything from the PotC pack (he transferred to 12 because he liked the theme more, and also so he can make it hard as it'll technically be the last true level in the game) and Burnvictim will finish finals tomorrow, so he'd be working on level 13. Takelow has started work on 11 methinks, but I haven't seen much but he should work more over christmas break I think. and Zwollie broke his arm, so we may have to wait 5 weeks for updates on level 4 ;-;.
... And yes, I know everyone's all spread out XD
Good news is that I shall be on Christmas Break for the next two weeks. Plenty of time to get working on Level 12.
Yeah, i will have more free times during christmas hollidays too.
I am already woking on level 11, and it could be finished before the new year ;) !
And I am now done with Finals! WOOOOOOOOO! Pardon me while i go running through my house screaming like a chimpanzee.
Work on level 13 begins anew, be afraid, be very afraid.
I had a longer post all typed up... but then it got all messed up by the database error making me lose all of it >_>
So I'll cut to the chase. Zwollie cannot finish level 4, which leaves 3 full levels that need to be done, in addition to 2-4 potential minigames. My current team cannot reasonably make all these levels since many of us are done their part in the Game.
as such... I am forced to reopen applications. PM me, qualifications are still the same (awesome creator, fairly active at LBPC).
So yeeeeep... take this opportunity to leap into this epic project at the last minute? We needz you :O
... or maybe we don't... Well still, apply. Yep. We have no choice but to get more people out here D:
Woop :P
This thread seems to be more settled, as not many random people are coming to ask the same questions over and over like before, so I suppose now's a good time to open up for them' applications.
I think I'ma try it out.
Sent in my application :)
Hope I get in! This project sounds like Epicness on a Stick with Extra Awesome!
I sent in another application. ;)
And I agree with VooDeeDoo, thank god this thread settled down.
Won't we need two new people in total?
We MAY. I'm not too sure- we've got three levels and a few minigames left... well, we'll see :kz:Quote:

i hope that this is a good plan of you
rock :)
I sent an application, but sadly I have no published level that showcases my true talent.:( I'd prefer to create a Mini-game if I had a choice.
Wait, what am I doing? I'm getting way to far ahead of myself!!!
You say that you have no published level that showcases your talent... could you perhaps give us something to see your talent? Its kind of hard to invite someone blind :p
Also, i think we're really looking for level creators, as those are what are going to be the time consuming monsters preventing this project from reaching completion. Most of the planned minigames won't take too long to put together... though we're still thinking of some ;p
SPEAKING of minigames actually.... I just heard that /sniped
Well, that's alright! I'd still work on a level if I was to be accepted :( But I'd need a strong story to work off of anyway, I can't think of my own! Haha!
My best showing of my shkills is my W.I.P. level, but you see I pretty much ran out of ideas already. I work in splurges. Whenever my brain thinks of stuff :)
So you can take a look at my W.I.P. if you go here-->http://www.lbpcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20271<-- and enter the code in my "Key Room!" It's not as polished or complete as I'd like, but I guess it will have to do!
Thanks for taking the time to think of me!
Just give me a hollar if I could be of any service to all of you!!
P.S. Water's out! I can work with that! ;)
Hmm. Well, I feel that my current project is going quite well...
Maybe I can show rock or something? ^_^
Y'know...I have this eerie feeling that someone like Morgana or Wexfordian is going to walk in 0__0'
^ that'd be nice :p
Anywho...
I've been meaning for it to be semi-secret... but I suppose it's best for it to be done.
See, Moleynator and Leather Monkey are making a trailer. :O. It should be released soon. "Soon" is dependent on Moleynator who has a bad laptop or something, but has to upload all the clips so that Leather can edit them.
So basically... I need everyone's help! Everyone, mass pm Moleynator and force him to upload them! Do not let him stop! THIS MUST SUCCEED! So yeah, everyone, pm Moleynator and tell him to git ta werk, k? k.
Lol, nice one Rock! I didn't think you actually meant it. :p
But ok, everyone do it, do it now. :kz:
Lol...you're actually trusting Moleface to upload them?
We all make mistakes ;)
Zis is an outrage! You people are supposed to be fighting to make a level! FIGHTING I TELLZ YOU. I should need to host a gladiatorial battle to find the perfect creator, not beg.
I SHALL ANNIHILATE YOU ALL unless more people beg for forgiveness by sending me a pm begging to work on teh game. Justice needs YOU :kz:
*coughs* :) *raises hand*
I don't really understand the contest. The room thing is a bit... Strange... Could you please enlighten us as to what exactly we were meant to do? The instrutions were a bit vague.
Sorry :S
You need to create gameplay related to a particular social group in the confines. Basically, you need yo be able to freely travel between the four checkpoints, and not be able to block a path to a checkpoint in any way. Confusing, I know, I just don't want to spoil what they're fore just yet ;-;Quote:

That being said ... the contest isn't really set up to encourage people to join. We're all very enthused about this project of yours, but the contest for contributing content doesn't seem very structurally appealing.
It's making something very specific with, at least it comes off as, very little room for creativity.
People don't know what it is going to be used for, so they don't know what a "good" entry would be.
There's no end-date for the contest, and since it ends on your whim, even if someone did start making an entry - you've outlined the ability to end the contest before they even finished.
Your project has a ton of interest in it ... the contest however, doesn't seem to be set to engender the same kind of enthusiasm.
Yeah, that may be so, I probably didn't think the whole thing through... ok, fine, I'll tell ya'll what the contest actually is for ;-;. - in it's thread
the winner may be a winner, but it may not be something good to represent the creator of the level's capability and narrows the probability of it being a worthy level down to whatever they could manage to do with whats offered to them.
but i dont think i would enter; good luck to anyone who does!
Since I'm a fairly lazy lad, and don't feel up to reading many posts... hope you don't mind me asking...
Are you still looking for creators or are you fine with who you have? Have people been picked already? Will the winner of the contest be the one that will be taken in as a creator?
I need to catch up... I missed wayyy too much in just a week :cry:
LAZY BUM :grr:Quote:
