[On Hold] There's Something About Tails

Post by Project Shadowcat »

It might seem pretty foolish to think that a mere sprite comic would be my pride and joy. The production of the comic itself is not; sprite comics are cheap and easy to produce, where your main focus can be the story. It is the story itself, however, plus some of the custom characters (those who were invited do not count) that I am proud of.
The sprite comic can be read [HERE], although it's not done.
Spoiler: For those who don't feel like reading
The project is to be loosely based on the comic, plot-driven based on the player's actions (or lack there-of in a few cases). This means that the game could end in a totally different way the comic will (which, like the game, isn't even close to done).

I have finally sent the project over to here, where I have been asking many of my ACS- and DECORATE-related questions. Quite honestly I am expecting mixed to rather negative comments strictly for its subject material than anything, hence my reluctance to post anything. Of course, I'm desperate now...

Shortened to TSAT, this mod is actually designed to be Stand-Alone, as the project was to cater to those who can't get a hand on a copy of Doom (though those who own it can still enjoy it of course). This means I would have to replace a lot of the textures, create new enemies, compose music, etc. Yeah, not easy. I have been using a lot of resources from other projects, not the least of which has been FreeDoom. Music I have been pulling from some of my favorite titles such as Ace Combat 5, Command and Conquer, and MechWarrior -- of course, where appropriate, however of course I would like original compilations.

However, with a plan, with a story to work off of, I know that one day I can get this thing done.

I have better than screenshots to show for this. One gameplay trailer is very old and at least shows that I wanted to do a game on it. MAP01: [HERE]. A lot of the features have been updated since then, including the status bar getting a complete facelift. MAP02: [HERE].
EDIT1: Quick Romp Through Mobius

The sprite comic doesn't appear finished (as there's no obvious conclusion yet), but having just read all 112 strips (I think) I'll admit it was quite entertaining, even though it was a very odd merging of three different franchises. I can't believe how many bloody characters there are in Sonic now!

Keep up the good work on the comic, and I'm intruiged as to what this'll be for a fully blown wad.

i found this to be a bit morbidly funny and fairly good, of course my hate for sonic speaks here so its nothing against your story, cause i kinda like it

i just hate sonic for some inexplicable reason just like i hate megaman...

If it isn't working, that is a sign for you to stop trying.

People sure like being called faggots. Please leave your 4chan humor at the door until you get to know this place better.

My advice, as the guy who bans people for failing to be reasonable members of the community, would be to stop being such a dickhead and give up on the "humour" before you take it too far and I get called in.

@PDF: Just checked the gameplay videos too (how on earth did I miss them the first read-through?) - looks interesting, and somewhat exactly like I thought it'd be judging from the comics too. *puts on list of things to look forwards to*

Custom sprites look alright, level design not so much.

I think this mod looks pretty cool, I liked the comic so hopefully I will like this as well. :)
