Found what I think is the Space Harrier BBall prototype. Dont have a windows machine around to double check so it may also be virus infested garbageware. Let me know if its the right thing.

The song I think was meant at one point to be a cover of that Sting song with the lyrics changed to ’Fields of Barkley’. did you at any point, any of you, even consider any feature at all which actual humans might have one day been able to incorporate into a game

Let me know if its the right thing. Hot drat playable Barkley 2. Thread delivers! This was awesome, I dug that it had a sort of 3D Worldrunner vibe to it but it also reminded me of the bonus stage in Sonic Blast (I do not recommend playing Sonic Blast but I would play this)

Its true what they say about humor not aging well, grew to appreciate that while working on Barkley2. Even over just the course of working on Barkley2, some of the jokes have probably taken a different tone than they started with, which is I guess a pretty specific risk for humorous games that take forever to make. If you remember one of the early clips we showed of character creation, there's a bit where you choose your gender. There's like 6 options, and you can pick any combination of em, even all of them at once. Your choice is represented on a little statue that resembles the Venus of Willendorf. So you get to set up your identity as part of an over-elaborate WRPG-style character creation system, alongside answering quiz questions to choose your alignment and picking tarot cards etc. But time marches on, and in the meantime, reactionary manchildren grow really fond of "attack helicopter" jokes and all of its knee-slapper variations to mock trans and genderqueer people, and never seemed to have really moved on from that joke even years later. Today, that screen could be interpreted as just more of that garbage. Problems like that are the kind of thing playtesters can really help with, obviously, but we havent been doing much of that. With how its executed, I think its fine. but I'm not the target of that kind of mockery, so its pretty easy for me to say.

Space Harrier prototype: 20 hours tops. Gunsfusion: Massive TTX: 1,100 hours Combat: Maybe 2–3-4000 hours total? Babby huey dissection minigame: Not that much I think? Basically making a crazy but haphazard one-off minigame is a lot easier than making a complex balanced system fitting into a larger puzzle.

It occurs to me that you could just have made a totally fake RPG system. Make a fun mouse and keyboard shooter, make the gun's utility focused, then had the damage numbers seem to scale based on level but in effect be totally meaningless. That would be funny and also extremely playable. I wanted to get my hands on this for all the weird random bullet patterns and stuff. Most of the actual numbers go up stuff in RPGs is basically negligable anyway, look at Destiny, which only uses it really to gate content. The actual progression part of Destiny is a good perks setup. Since Barkley 2 was a single player game you could have just had bigger numbers being the little reward that tickles the lizard brain.

Yeah, see, in the fantastical dream world where Barkley 2 actually happens, now I'd want it to be an exploration game ala Jazzpunk where you wander around, finding funny things, talking to bizarre NPCs, playing weird minigames, and uncovering the story. No combat needed, and the humor takes center stage.

It’s easy to say what B2 should’ve been and what was possible in retrospect, but I would’ve been thrilled to have played the run and gun shooter they were planning. I love that type of gameplay and I could see it working just fine in a Barkley game.

I like that it turned out like Event Horizon only instead of a group of quantum physicists who try to achieve faster than light travel and accidentally discover hell it's a group of indie game developers who try to make the ultimate random epic internet humor game and accidentally discover the LD50 for THC

Oh, nothing has still actually happened. I guess it's just impossible to put in a few dark drakers to block the areas you don't want to show, click the "Make .exe" button and upload it. There's only been six loving years to do this but hold on, let's not rush things, wouldn't want to look like fools here by rushing things. This really loving annoys me and I'm extremely salty over this. Reminds me of that time back in the early days when there was some really good momentum for the project, I was making the Character Creation segment from the designs I was being shown and told, and it only needed one or two more days of work from the people involved and it would have been feature complete but then all of a sudden let's just stop working on it for no reason. It's not interesting anymore. We can't possibly muster the energy to design the last 10% of it or have the guy who was making the graphics for it draw up the remaining sprites. Should've just done it on my own, except then I would've been told to go gently caress myself for making unauthorized work. Gortarius fucked around with this message at 06:28 on Jun 11, 2019 |
