Giygas in ZDoom EARTHBOUND SPOILERS

[DenisBelmondo]

I just came back from trying to make it. Since I have really bad mapping skills, it turned out to be really bad.

I made the Devil's Machine out of the snake/Human intestines texture and Giygas himself as the skinface texture with warp added through animdefs.

If you don't know who/what Giygas is and you want to spoil Earthbound for yourself I suggest you read this:

http://earthbound.wikia.com/wiki/Giygas

And watch these:


Skip to 3:44 if you actually want to see Giygas.



Has anyone tried to make this this? Does anyone even want to try to make this? Has someone made it already? Anyway, I think it would be a pretty awesome idea, ZDoom is totally capable of something like this through ACS... Minus the RPG elements... I think.

Could be done. I'm not terribly familiar with the game but I think you could map a Giygas fight.

Basically just Line Horizon and a skybox, then a bunch of shootable lines around the player perhaps. That'd take care of the graphical effect.

Yeah. Also, here's the resources for The Devil's Machine and Giygas ripped from the game itself. These would probably take some work in an image editor, but you could adapt them for use in ZDoom.

Right click and save as to view it correctly.

This shit's messed up, I tell you.

I personally think the last 3 or 4 boss battles in Claustrophobia: The Walls Close In are kinda similar to this.

I have one thing to say about this: "I......F...E...E...L......H...A...P...P...Y"

Now seriously, I would love the idea to have her appear on another game, and maybe I'll even try myself to do all the stuff!

her

The more I think about Giygas' gender, the more I remember those images on Rule34.

[ZDG]

Rule34.

WAT.
*Searches on the internet*
Ooooookaaaaay.....

[Ceeb]

It's probably not good etiquette to discuss pr0ns, but... Let's just say Rule34 will either be your favorite site, ever, or it will make you asexual.

Back to the topic at hand, you can also use Giygas' "music" directly from the SPC files, rather than having to use larger MP3s or OGGs, or resorting to MIDI.

I thought Giygas in MOTHER 1 was a boy! D:

Fan drawings convince me otherwise... ugh.

@UBX Master: That wiki seems to indicate the gender as male...

@UBX Master: That wiki seems to indicate the gender as male...

Giygas is actually genderless, AFAIK. But I always refer to it as 'her' due to the infamous rape and abortion fan theory.

PS: For music, you could either use the SPCs themselves, or any of the cool remixes out there of the 'Pokey Means Business' theme, I would recommend any of the numerous remixes by DEDEDEJr, but everyone has their own tastes... (Even for rule34 ok I shut up now )

Even if I had the skills to make it I would really rather use Giygas' fight music instead of Pokey Means Business.

I like this one better:
