Re: Project Osiris - Alien Breed 3D for GZDoom (0.9 BETA)

@jocelynsachs Hi, I'd like to thank you for being in my thread and answering questions, it's been really interesting getting an insight into the development process of the original game. Can I ask if you have any more feedback on my version? How do you feel about the small changes I made to the ...

Re: Project Osiris - Alien Breed 3D for GZDoom (0.9 BETA)

I think Team 17 actually took it seriously. Nah. Not in the least. I know T17 had a proper feud with one of the Amiga magazines at the time but nobody was under any illusions about what a mess AB3D2 was. To be fair, it was never going to be a commercial product. The market (especially when you took ...

Re: Project Osiris - Alien Breed 3D for GZDoom (0.9 BETA)

I've heard the sequel to this game had significantly worse level design, but I've yet to see it. Oh, yeah, it was awful. What I should have done is fixed the limited level design system, added some actual game features, and made something worth playing. Instead I just tried to push the graphical ...

Re: Project Osiris - Alien Breed 3D for GZDoom (0.9 BETA)

@jocelynsachs I hope you don't mind me asking you this question here: Have you ever heard of a plastic toy version of the Alien Breed 3D Pule Rifle? I faintly remember one of those thick mailorder catalogues that were ubiquitous in the 90s, where you could order all kinds of cheap toys and ...

Re: Project Osiris - Alien Breed 3D for GZDoom (0.9 BETA)

@jocelynsachs If the Alien Breed 3D franchise had taken of like Doom did (perhaps even getting a PC release) and you would still have been on the project years later, would you have stuck to the Doom design of FPS games or would you perhaps have eventually gone for a more narrative driven game with ...

Re: Project Osiris - Alien Breed 3D for GZDoom (0.9 BETA)

Have you been able to play Osiris by now? And looking back, what would you have changed about the level design with the experience from now? Yeah, it's REALLY strange seeing those levels again! Feels very familiar too - I actually got to play the original on an A1200 last year and this version ...

Re: Project Osiris - Alien Breed 3D for GZDoom (0.9 BETA)

Well this is just simply delicious! Eheheh... Anyway good to know you worked on the development of Alien Breed 3D. You guys really did your best to make the best FPS game for Amiga and all. The resolution of the original game still makes me nervous. But thanks to ZDoom modding, it's now super ...

Re: Project Osiris - Alien Breed 3D for GZDoom (0.9 BETA)

Sounds almost like the original Alien Breed 3D was done by an outside team. Pretty much. I was in the last term of my second year at Uni when I contacted T17 and told them I had a demo to show them. They invited me in, looked at it, and hired me - but I stayed at Uni while I worked on it. One of my ...

Re: Project Osiris - Alien Breed 3D for GZDoom (0.9 BETA)

Yeah, I did all the coding, pretty much all the level design, even a little bit of the art. Team17 was really busy on other things at the time so there wasn't a 'team' as such. A lot of the rest was done by a couple of friends I was living with at Uni.

Re: Project Osiris - Alien Breed 3D for GZDoom (0.9 BETA)

This is fantastic :) I can only apologise for the level designs; I had no idea what I was doing at the time. Looking forward to playing this tonight and finding out what you've done to the old girl.
