What else should I put on here? Not really sure what it needs.

Is this still a thing? I’ve been looking for looped music at

http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/browse/tag/loop

but haven’t found anything that I think will work. Let me know if you do find something? Haven’t checked if it will be super easy to implement but I know that was talked about and I haven’t heard anything since. 

[edit] http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/474040 ? Listen to it on loop for a bit.

[6/12] You’ve got me scouring that site now too! I’m fine with the one you’ve posted, but I’ll post if I find something I like -Julia

[edit] I kin of like this one? I think? Not sure if it’ll go with the game or not.

[6/12] I think it’s a little bit too modern to be transparent while the player is playing. -K

made them, they’re on files and in the google doc. i hope i got them in there, it was hard considering they’re invisible and all..

hope they work!

[6/12] Invis walls in! -K

Hey ya’ll I am thinking that we need to have a meeting in the labs tonight.  We need to discuss what to do about the ending of the game.  I realize that this is pretty last minute, but better late than never. 

I know that Julia is planning on spending most of the night in the labs, and I’m planning on doing the same. I say we meet tonight around 9pm.  Hopefully by then I’ll have some pot sketches complete and we can talk about what else needs to get done.

-Eric

I have a SIGGRAPH officer mtg at 9 but I’ll let you know when I’m done! -K

ERIC
     - text in cutscene
     - end story pot images
     - floating hades img for return level 

JULIA

     - end story pot images
     - return level background

KATELYN
     - reprogram return level
     - invis walls on side of screens
     - framework & content for project page (katelyngodfrey.com/epic/project.html)
     - split02 background issues
     - fix return level environment 

Please add anything else you think needs to get done to the correct person’s list. I would like to have this all wrapped up the night before the presentation (Tuesday night).

Guh, added the new levels and everything broke. Will let you know when it gets fixed. I don’t think it was something you did, but there are issues all over the place now with collision checks and the game actually crashes and will not run.

[Update] So… there’s something crazy with your CSV files and there are issues all over the place but I can’t pinpoint what yet. Reverted back to the old ones. Also I feel terrible about pointing this out but the thickness of your background outlines is waaaay too thick. It’s all you can look at in the scene because it’s like 20x thicker than any outlines on the character or other assets.

Also, slightly related, we need an invisible wall on the far left and right of the screens on the split levels to avoid running off of the edge.

[6/11]- those can be put at (2, 49) to (2,425) on the left side and (1293, 49) to (1293, 425) on the right for split01!

(2, 49) to (2,425) on the left side and (1120, 49) to (1120, 425) on the right for split02!

no background in it yet, but it’ll be there soon!

split 01 is fixed! i updated pngs 1A, 1A1, 1B, 1B1. and csvs big ground, big ground grass,  small ground, and small ground grass.

[EDIT]:

updated pngs: 2A1, 2A2, 2B, 2C-nolock, , 3A, 3B, 3C, 3E, 3F, 4A, 4B, 5A, 5B, 6A, 6B, 7A, 7B, 8A, 8B

updated csvs: all of puzzle 01, puzzle02 ground, battle01 ground, battle02 ground, riddle01 ground, riddle02 ground, all of split 02.

let me know if the background for split level02 still doesn’t work!

Please play test and fill out the form linked to at the bottom of the page. Thanks!

So the cutscenes don’t really mention anything about a rush to the surface before Hades takes your youth so I didn’t put the timer in. Basically the object you desire is following you and so is Hades. If you start walking towards Hades you die. So it’s supposed to read as running for your life with what you love… let me know what you think. This was a 3:30 am scramble for content and logic.

So split02 is having all kinds of wierd collision issues. Even though I’ve reset the dame file’s collision index and made sure it’s the correct index in the code, the player keeps trying to collide with the background (he should only collide with the ground) and causing all kinds of issues. 

Will keep trying new things. Guh. 

So I was going to go back into my photoshop files and add black outlines to them all, but since i’m working in photoshop and not illustrator the brush outline Eric has been using is not available. There’s a similarish one though. Even though it will look a little different, I was wondering if you guys thought I should still outline it or not?

EDIT: JUST KIDDING I’M GOING TO GO FOR IT NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Also just added but not in the latest build, in puzzle01 you can’t get the box stuck in a corner/wall anymore! It will slide back to where it’s pushable. Yay!
