raocow's talkhaus

Hmm... shift them a little lower on the donut, and maybe make them slightly bigger? (Sorry for being particular-ish, I'm just trying to reconcile it with the mental picture I had.)

Wow, I just played some MegaMan X2 to check. Good eye, raocow. It is somewhat altered from the original background, but it's definitely Flame Stag.

Oh yeah! Forgot about that guy. ... Now I'm torn. Did you ever take my suggestion to add eyes to him, off to the side (styled like the clouds and hills have)?

If we start revoting on the Pokey, you know where my vote's going. (The Evil Eye Pokey. The traffic lights still look too awkward/out of place to me...)

@rubberfishy - I dunno... I think that's making things way more complicated than they need to be. Not to mention, I think people playing the game are either going to only go through one "normal" sized path or go back and do all of them. Even if they want to do all of them, though, I don't ...

I'm inclined to agree with Kilon, as far as the credits. We'll have plenty of joking and such in the game itself. We shouldn't need joke credits. (What would they even say? We're not Monty Python, after all.) I think the credits should just be for everyone who was involved in the making of the game.

Eh, I don't know about having a big "main" path. With the return pipe for those that want it, it seems like a waste of effort to make one that sends you through all of the created rooms anyways. Especially since there's going to (very likely) be many rooms. It'd be better to just have 4, 5...

Hmm... I'm kinda sure you were never asked this. What do you think of the SNES Donkey Kong Country games? Which one do you like most (if any)?

Well, my sentiments behind it were more for clearing up "the rest" itself rather than abolishing post counts, but... what can you do, I guess.

I guess I'd support the first map in Argumentable's post (multiple set paths). It makes it easy to keep tabs on which levels you've already gone through, if you care, but makes it so that those who don't care can choose a path of 3 or 4 levels and go through. We can put a return pipe (clearly marked...

Yeah, seconded. They look alright, but I can't imagine it in motion, and that's what we're gonna have to accept it on.

Wow, nice. Thanks, FoD. I'm liking how both the caret brackets and the asterisks translate into SMW text. I'm partial to the caret brackets at this point, but I think either would be nice for Con's dialogue.

I'm gonna call it: "The Charlie Ocean" . The fish and the urchin will be changed to some blob who weares a charlie mask. Heres a video of the urchin, and the hunting fish. LINK I kinda like the Charlie Urchin better than the normal Urchin, but I'm not so sure about the Charlie Rip van Fis...

I took a look at a trailer Higsby himself made for the game, and it looks pretty rad. Of course there's probably bias, considering it's a creator-made trailer, but it gives me some amount of anticipation for the videos to come.

The slip-up at the start of the video today made me laugh. It looks like Metroid Legacy doesn't wanna give you up, Rao. ;) Also, "well look who's farming!" made me laugh way more than it should have. Today seemed to be a pretty good day.

Oh. My bad.

Could I request being "Daze (dazedouji)", then? I'd be for Story/Dialogue and Spriting Ideas (and possibly Beta Testing, if I can).

I don't think that the "ILLUSIYELLOW" in the letter GFX file is needed for the hack, so couldn't we just change that into the " or *? (In SMW it was used to make the level names "forest of illusion" and "yellow switch palace" fit into the level name box) Can we do...

It might just be my inexperience when it comes to Super Metroid (or any Metroid, for that matter), but I was actually liking this LP. I know a pretty good amount of people are voicing that they're glad it's over, and looking at how annoyed/disappointed raocow was getting with it, it's probably a goo...

Drat, none of the cool characters (although it's nice to know the ellipsis are a single one). I guess there could be a # at the start of Con's messages, but that looks... eh, to say the least? Maybe it looks better than I'm imagining it. Thanks for clearing up auto-messages, though! So, I guess if t...

I'd say the level creators' names, even the World 8 Castle room creators' names, can just go in the text file. For the running credits, I'd say we just group names by what they did. Coordinators get their own mentions at the front, and then it runs through. Something like... Project Coordinator Proj...

I'd say it looks like you have most everything that I can remember! Let me address those last few numbered points you made. 1) I think you've got a good place for Demo to realize her return device is missing. It brings attention to it early, and more importantly, gives her a really good bit of incen...

I thought everyone knew that the Mushroom Kingdom was set in modern times... Haven't you all seen There Will Be Brawl...? I did, like last week. It's out there, but it's pretty good! Anyways, looking at the shenanigans cropping up just from World 2 and the start of World 3... this hack isn't gonna ...

I think we had a suggestion post like this a while ago...? Maybe...? Either way, I remember a thing about a forum site I used to be on that might be applicable here. There was a General Chat board there that's much like "the rest": discussion threads, listing threads, threads congratulatin...

Let's get things back on track...ish. Anyways, Rao. You said before that you don't own any other pets at the moment besides Gaston. Have you ever had any other pets, even just a family one? Have you ever looked after a friend's or relative's dog/cat/anteater/younger sibling/other for a period of tim...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WOl7PSWZPAI That is the World 3 Castle. Please tell me if it's too hard for World 3, or if you find other errors. Man, I know everyone is thinking this. RealLink, you have to name that level Charlie's Chocolate Factory. It just has to. The level is great, maybe tone d...
