Otaku Alex's Workshop (RPG Mod V1c)

[OtakuAlex]

OK, I'm currently trying to fix the issue where you return to being LVL1 after dying. I'm thinking I'll try making some new variables that are effected by TIDs and Player Numbers, I this will be activated as soon as you die.  PlayerTIDChecker and PlayerLevelChecker are the new variable I will make in the ACS and use to manage death and respawns. BTW, I didn't make the EXP sprites, they're technically the mana sprites from Hexen, but their colours are wrong due to the fact that MM8BDM doesn't use the same colour files as Hexen does. No, I will not make my own sprites, I never do, aside from my Zero hud and we all know how that turned out.

Also, I just started development for the Sonic hale.
Here are my plans for him.

Primary Attack: Dash
Rage: Super Sonic
Theme: Green Hill Zone
Skin: Sonic the Hedgehog By TheMetalManu

I am currently looking for first-person dash sprites so that I don't have to use Cpt Flacon's or Mega Man's (YD Classes) dash sprites instead.

[Stardust]

You could use Sonic's firing sprites Manu created, right ?
Give him Spin Dash as normalfire.
Here you go, the "ball sanic" graphic becomes fittable.

I meant sprites in first person, not the character sprites. This means like, um......Look at this image from Zelda OoT (or MM?) for an example of what I mean by first-person.

[Stardust]

Oh you mean the HUD.

[OtakuAlex]

Yeah, that's what I meant, but I guess I'm too used to using the term 'hud' when referring to stats that are shown at the side of the screen and stuff like that.

Anyways, Doom Guy is being put on Hiatus due to a glitch I'm having trouble fixing, Sonic is being developed rather well, and I have  (4 if you count the trio as separate hales) more hales coming up in future updates. I won't give out any details until later on, but you can expect some interesting fights from these characters.

Was my Pyramid Head idea considered?

Sorry to say this, but Otaku rejected your idea; He mentioned on one of the servers that your idea was a poor concept, mostly with being a melee hale based around stealth (the whole being near-invisible concept) and not direct combat.

I will say: thanks for attempting a hale that breaks away from the standard melee hale concept.

Thank you for telling me, though it is strange, he's OK with keeping slenderman as is, but he dislikes Pyramid Head... That just sounds silly in my head, but it IS his mod.

[OtakuAlex]

I actually removed Slender Man entirely, not one bit of code is left. Unless I missed some, of course.

Also, I updated the Thingz file so that it has some of what will be needed for future hales. It's not necessary to download Thingz-2 at the moment though since there's nothing that effects the current version, but it will be needed for the next version.

[coolcat7022]

OK, that makes WAY more sense... May i ask why all hales must be direct assault? Why not lean off the cliche?

[tsukiyomaru0]

Indeed, why no one made a Hale that requires you to strategically sneak around and plant mines that are difficult to see?

[Linnie]

Solid Snake Hale? Or 007 Hale?

[coolcat7022]

XD We are shooting Saxton stuff like a gattling gun!

[OtakuAlex]

I'd be all for a Solid Snake hale if we can find some sprites, but first I should finish any other hales I decided to work on. Actually, someone else could make the Solid Snake hale  instead if they want since I won't be doing any new hale ideas until the other ones are done.

[Ceridran]

Sprites, you say?

By the way, QUALITY > QUANTITY. Seriously, every single meme boss should be scrapped as well as Saxton Hale, whose job is better done by Scrooge McDuck, who fits in very well. All the meme bosses and Saxton Hale, they're all awful. Stick to famitracker/NES music, as well, don't give them voices/sounds that weren't on an NES game.

I know I'm being fairly biased, but don't you want to keep to MM8BDM's theme: the NES?

If you head for quantity over quality, you're trying to copy Action 52. A majority of the bosses are the same, just like a majority of Action 52 games are top-down shooters. Space shooters, especially.

Oh, and they're "bosses", not "hales". Hale is the last name of Saxton. He's not Jango Fett, you know.

and a ship from a Japanese vertical shooter (surprise).

I think that's fairly obvious.

If not those, the game must be incredibly obscure.
