Indy-Mogul: The game.

[Darkmast508]

Hi the Indy-mogul crew and mogullers, I'm wondering, I've been learning to make games and I want to make a Indy-Mogul Fan Game, what do you think?

[Brainstrained]

What would you do in it?

[Darkmast508]

I thought it could become a series(different episodes, different scenarios.) I believe the first one should be the attack of the giant evil sandwiches, you could be Erik, the master of tools, Steve, The master of sound and well, for the others, I don't know you too well(barely seen you on indy mogul!) if you could give me info bout what you do during the show etc I can include you.

[justin]

YES YES YES!!!

I love attack of the evil sandwiches ... let us know if you need us to do anything for it in front of the green screen (running sideways, etc etc) and we'll do it!

[moonwolf]

about i about a mcgaver a team bit what the guys have to make something to fight off the bad guys

[Jason Endurance]

I have an idea.

The indy mogulers write a script that must be performed by you guys!

But the catch is, we can only post four words.

So the game would begin, "Once upon a time"
the next poster would post four words and the next poster thereafter, so on and so forth. I think if kept within reason it could turn out pretty funny.

Just an idea really...

Once upon a time... :P

[animeking527]

Thats like a forum RPG. Why don't you make a new thread for that so we can talk about the game in this one.

[sivhead]

there was a team!:eek::grumble::D

[SyxxGage]

How about a game where Steve has to escape the Suns rays. He can use bottles of sunblock as powerups!

[SyxxGage]

Ok. You begin as a broke indy filmmaker (not that much of a stretch for most of us)Spin the wheel of prosperity. What ever budget it lands on, you have to go out and collect that much money. Once youve gained enough $, the next level you must get the items required for a special effect. Level 3 is a puzzle level where you put the peices together for the effect. After you complete level 3, the "effect" will come to life, setting up the level 4 boss battle against Eric, Steve, or Justin. WARNING, WARNING! TEST FILM APPROACHING. Defeat the effect to end the Test Film. You could do it like SMB with 3 worlds and 4 stages (World 1-1, 1-2, 1-3 etc.) each so Eric, Steve, and Justin can each be a "Boss"

[mrief85]

Make it so the Indy Mogul crew is a team of pimps that work the streets and say things like, "DAMN DAWG!"

[Steve Nelson]

How about a game where Steve has to escape the Suns rays. He can use bottles of sunblock as powerups!

It's already out and it's called "Summer Time".

[justin]

All I ask is that I can be a playable character

[animeking527]

All I ask is that I can be a playable character

That would be awesome!

[FyceDesigns]

Dude...

That game would be awesome! What are you making it in, Flash? KoolMoves? GameMaker? I really like SyxxGage's idea.

-Fyce

PS: There should be 3 playing areas: The backyard, that field they've used a couple times, and the roof...

[Magical Monkey]

attack of the giant sandwiches! SWEET!

[Magical Monkey]

Make it so the Indy Mogul crew is a team of pimps that work the streets and say things like, "DAMN DAWG!"
WTF? you've beening playing too much gand theft auto. :loco:

[jared]

from what it seems like, "trip 2 jersey" is gonna be the end-boss...
*glares at erik*

[Darkmast508]

I was thinking of a top-down RPG, like legendary weapons(steve can have the Boom-mic!) etc.... Okay, I'll start on the Sandwich sprites.

[justin]

I was thinking of a top-down RPG, like legendary weapons(steve can have the Boom-mic!) etc.... Okay, I'll start on the Sandwich sprites.
Ooh, that's really cool too. We'll promote the hell out of this when it's done :) Maybe even set up some kind of contest for high scores or something

[mrief85]

WTF? you've beening playing too much gand theft auto. :loco:

If I remember correctly, that is indeed what she said.

[viksko]

maybe a multiplayer part

for fun

[NielsGade]

If you're gonna use the Source Engine (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source_engine) I can do pretty much everything.

[Darkmast508]

I'm sorry, I'm using a very restricting Game-maker at the moment, I will release a Prologue to the game then work on my C++ skills, then I can make a 3D game.

[Kevinaz]

Hey, I do 3d modeling, I can make 3d models for this game! e-mail me at kevinaz@k-andrewstudios.com

[Darkmast508]

No, I have to pay to make 3D games, actually, can we post-pone it until I can program C++? In the mean time i'll make SyyxGages Idea.

[Kevinaz]

No problem.

I can make 3d games, and they require almost no programming.

The software is free. It's called cre8or3d. It's an extension to the 3d program, anim8or, and It's un-believably easy. You should go to cre8or3d.com and try it out. It's still in it's early testing stages, so it's still got a few minor bugs, but I was able to make a decent game with it within one day, without 1 line of code.

Maybe I'll give it a try, and If I can work something out I'll let you know.

Kevinaz

[Darkmast508]

Don't. That's what programmers Despise. Anyway, They usually make Crappy results.



EDIT: I've decided. In the mean time I will make the Indy mogul series, But when I have learnt C++, I will create Indy-Mogul: Mogulville Online will be released!

EDIT II: That program sucks crap.

[hotelfboy55]

by determining which level you go to, you spin the wheel of prosperity. also, gary should be an unlockable charactor! erik's weapon should be the BFG9000 and steve's charactor has to look like that guy he was dressed up as in that last wekend extra. THERE HAS TO BE EVIL PUPPETS, ZOMBIES, WEREWOLVES, oh, and by the way, erik's charactor should be the flying squirl.

[Kevinaz]

Yeah, it's not that great of a program, but like I said, it's in it's alpha stage. If you youtube "kjx engine" you'll be able to see videos of much more advanced things it can do. I'm helping with the development of that software, and I can tell you, It has great potential, and you'll see some great new features released soon... btw, It does have code programming abilities.

Anyhow, it was just a suggestion for if you didn't know game programming yet. I'd actually suggest a code game maker over that one any day.

Just let me know when you start the 3d game, and I'll help with the models.

Kevinaz

P.S. What I meant by "Maybe I'll give it a try, and If I can work something out I'll let you know" is i'd see if I could program an indymogul game with cre8or3d, but I don't think it's possible just yet.

[justin]

2D ... 3D ... as long as it exists we'll be so happy you won't even believe it

[Kohrsfilms]

erik's charactor should be the flying squirl.

That would be so funny!

[PROFFESERsalvdore]

you should be able to customize the moguler and use the blood shooter as sorta flame thrower, and a camera with a shotun mic. is a shotty!

[mch7]

ya so like what if you did for the broken limbs episode you could do attack of the limb ripping zombies

[Darkmast508]

Okay, heres an idea.

Clothes stores are threadbanger shops.

Warehouses are where you buy equipment to make items.

Cinemas are where you find videos straight from www.filmfights.com (http://forum.indymogul.com/www.filmfights.com)

and did I mention

Indy Mogul Online!

[mch7]

What kind of game would this be like an RPG or what???:confused:

[Weker1]

Ither way I say a mario style side scroller would be the best!
OR go sims on it.

[ciwi286]

Ither way I say a mario style side scroller would be the best!
OR go sims on it.

mario style would kick ass!!!

[Magical Monkey]

mario style would kick ass!!!
na...mario-style would be smelly...:loco:

[ciwi286]

wellll maybe for you...but I still play mario bros 3 for the nes and it just doesnt get old!

[legendarylugi]

Well if it's 3D, I can help with that.

But I say a 2D game would fit much better for Indy Mogul. I don't know why.

[legendarylugi]

I just came up with an AWESOME idea.

What if there were different "forms" or "powerups" that Erik could get?

These would include Cyborg Erik, Werewolf Erik, and Erik with the BFG.

[Erik Beck]

OMGZ, please someone make this happen!

[legendarylugi]

Steve could go Zombie, or use the Steve Dummy as a decoy to ward off enemies.

Stevie 6 could be a boss. If that happened, Erik should SO turn into Cyborg Erik for the fight. :eek: That would be AWESOME. :D



EDIT: One final suggestion for now. It would be so kick*** awesome (and funny too) if Werewolf Erik's main weapons were a Dirt Devil and a feather duster! :D

[mch7]

the game would be so awesome just do it haha as your doing it though ask questions and have every one vote or something

[spicysmoke]

na...mario-style would be smelly...:loco:

na thatd be the best way to do it.

[ciwi286]

na thatd be the best way to do it.

YAY...someone else who agrees with me!!!

[DULL N DUMB]

I'VE DONE A 2d SPRITE OF ERIC AS A CYBORG! :D a bit hard to see but if anyone wants to use it email me and I can do some more 2d art (but I'm not so good at animating)
http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd50/mrDUMDUMDUM/cy-eric.jpg

I can also do gml(gamemaker) and yesterday I started learning C++ programming yay! :D :D

[animeking527]

It would rock if it had different levels in 2D and 3D. Like Paper Mario. One level your 2D and the next its 3D. And there could be some Mario style levels. I remember when I was little I use to play games like that on Cartoonnetwork.com The camra was side view. So it could have better graphics and different game play than Mario.

[hotelfboy55]

there should be a level where you fight justin in a space ship! bob's foam factory should be taken over by limb tearing robot zombies. AND PUPPETS! gary should be like the super awsome unlockable character thats nearly impossible to get and he totally pwns everybody!!!!!

[ninjabros]

Personally, I just think that Indy Mogul shouldn't be like Christopher Paolini, who just gave Eragon rights to like the first person whoa asked and thus made a terrible movie. I guess what I'm saying is, just make it good, and don't disgrace Indy Mogul.

On that note, Good Luck. (Mario style sounds good to me)

That is a pretty cool idea. Like there could be some sidescrolling platform stages with lots of enemies, but then when they get stuck in a boss fight or something it goes to 3D.

[legendarylugi]

I really like the idea that any stage that has strange stuff in it like zombies, etc., should be that the player is "trapped in a test film". So the stages leading up to it are "normal", with you getting the stuff ready for the effect, and setting up your test film, but then they get trapped IN the test film.

That could even be the main premise. That some kind of strange magic has happened that makes them get trapped in their test films.

[Weker1]

I think Thread banger, Pulp Secret and Jetset should have cameos!
And Zap Root!

[Lex]

Final Boss fight is by defeating the last boss by making a test film and making it look like they are killed by gunshots and beaten by their own ripped off limb.

[ciwi286]

I think Thread banger, Pulp Secret and Jetset should have cameos!
And Zap Root!

Arent we forgetting someone....THE MIGHTY FRED!

[MEJDFILMS]

If it was going online, I think the proper graphics for it would be similar to Habbo Hotel.

[Jacob-ne-a]

this would be an awsome game if its ever created (thought i'm not getting my hopes up)

[legendarylugi]

^^^Yeah, it probably won't happen.

But one thing that would definitely help its chances is to create a "game document" to start. Game developers use this as part of how they get and stay organized, and how they know what they are going to be doing. In fact, a game document is not only helpful, it's very important, its essential if you want a chance in hell of getting a decent sized game made and made WELL.

A game document is essentially this...every action that would happen in your game, written down. So basically, once we come up with enough ideas, we can start to organize them into what we see the actual game as being, and then fleshing that out with the details. But keep in mind, the game document must include the little actions as WELL as the big ones within the gameplay structure. Because, how can you code if you don't know what you're coding? That's what a game document is for.

Once you have a game document, making the game itself is much easier, since you have a firm sense of direction.

[Brainstrained]

Personally, I just think that Indy Mogul shouldn't be like Christopher Paolini, who just gave Eragon rights to like the first person whoa asked and thus made a terrible movie.

Yeah, but the book was pretty bad in the first place.

[/offtopic]

[legendarylugi]

Here's an idea: BFX could be the main stages, Weekend Extra could be bonus stages, and Q and Erik could be unlockable hints, tips, and cheatcodes.

[SyxxGage]

Is this game actually going to happen or are we just blindly hoping for it.

[NielsGade]

It seems that everybody are just coming up with ideas instead of actually doing something concrete. As I mentioned before, if you make this as a modification to Half-Life 2, I can do the coding and the mapping (Levels). Which means we just need the models.

[muffindog]

I'm going to make a first (or 3rd) person shooter for Indy Mogul, but I barely have experience with games so this is just for fun and it can give people an idea on what a game could be later on. Someone else can probably make a better game, but I want to try and do something that I have never done before. I'm just getting sound files from the show now so that it can be something to laugh at. Remember its not going to be anything amazing and I have school so it may take some time, but it will probably be fun.

The graphics are not so hot, but it's 3D and kinda like half life 1 graphics, but they are customized to have the best and worst indy mogul moments


Ill post it right away when I finish:fcross:

-MuffinDog


P.S. i need a title!!! I was thinking revenge of the BFX, path of the moguler, or the mogul massacre (You play as Erik Beck and you and your team must fight off all the creations and villains from BFX)

[ericslovechild]

Yuo know what? I'm just gonna make this game incase it doesn't happen.

It will be 2d. Don't cry.

[whgoss]

Attack of the Steve.

Save Earth from Steve's destruction.

Oh, it shall be done.

[animeking527]

So there's like 5 people making an Indy Mogul game. Soon you guys (IndyMogul) are going to have to make a game tag on the home menu because there are going to be like 10 different Indy Mogul games. But thats good, because there will be different types of games so if you don't like the one then you can just go on to the next one.

[ciwi286]

yeah....its started out with one person saying that they were learning c++ and were going to make one but then so many other people kinda stole they idea and changed it a bit so now loads of people are making separate games!

[animeking527]

Well thats good, then we can have an IndyMogul game area.

[ciwi286]

Well thats good, then we can have an IndyMogul game area.

Lol yeah i suppose but loads of them could turn out the same. It would be better if the people making a game the same way worked together...earlier nielsgade said they would make the maps if someone else made the models if it were a half life 2 mod, which would kick ass!

that would be good because theres less pressure on one person and the game is actually more likely to come out, but i see where your coming from!

[whgoss]

It's likely that most of them won't even be completed.

[Serial Chiller]

ok , noones going to get anywhere if it's just far fetched ideas and dream-chasing

I propose a flash game, it's easy to make and yet lots can be done
it's 2D but hey: it's indy mogul => it's still gonna rule

since I know SOME Actionscript I'll try to put the whole thing together.
All I need now is some ideas and perhaps some footage of the indy mogul crew
or we could ..you know draw them.

[Serial Chiller]

AWESOME...dude!!! those are SICK!!!!! \m/:D\m/

[animeking527]

Those are great. I think everyone thats going to make a game need to post what ideas there going to use in there game. So everyone doesn't use the same things.

[InsaneSparrow]

If you're going to make a 2D sidescroller in Flash, I'd love to help, I just got CS3, although I haven't used it in a little while, so I'm a bit rusty heh

I reckon you should have to find clues or something, to help you complete the game, and perhaps include multiple choice questions on things in various indymogul videos, like "What color shirt was Steve wearing when he was thrown off the building in the dummy build?" and when you answer it correctly, you'll be given access to other areas.

If ANYONE comes up with SOMETHING, please feel free to buzz me, and I'll give you all my details (maybe not my pin number) and you can send it over, and I'll have a fiddle with you. Well, with the file. Not with you personally. You gotta spell everything out these days. Gosh.

Oh, and while I'm thinking of it, you could have different levels being different videos sort of thing, I'd love to have "Crappy Sound Steve" vs "Pwnage Sound Steve" with his lavaliere and boom mic moves, or maybe Cyborg Erik and that squirrel man thing, and the Ghost of Jack Foley with an indymogul jetpack.

And of course my favorite lines from every indymogul video ever "Or if you're like my ex-wife, it'll pick up diseases wherever it goes" and "every chip you it is a morsel of knowledge you will not gain"

No, I'm not obsessed.... much.

[ericslovechild]

Does anybody remember that old kids game called "Gizmos and Gadgets" where you had to run around and collect parts to make an invention with which you must compete against a mad scientist? That's what I'm basing my game off of.

and seeing as I've got a holiday coming up (yes, I'm still in school :() I'll have a lot of time on my hands . Meaning it'll probably be done innn november-ish somewhere.

I'll post some screens later...as soon as there's ,you know,
a game to make screens from

[animeking527]

Cool, thanks.

We've almost got our first Indy Mogul game! WOOO!

[ciwi286]

WoW...someones actually making progress on this! :eek:

[justin]

YES YES AND MORE YES!

[Ondwey]

Hey Erik, you guys should make an intro movie, and maybe some cutscenes, after all this is a game about movies:fcross:

[animeking527]

Everyone that's making a game IS posting on the Indy Mogul website right?

[Ondwey]

oh i'm not making a game, just saying a couple of cutscenes would be cool

[Serial Chiller]

YES YES AND MORE YES!

Thanks for that.
Your enthousiastic capital letter-shouting means a lot to me.

Hey Erik, you guys should make an intro movie, and maybe some cutscenes, after all this is a game about movies:fcross:

You're right. and I've thought about this myself but the only problem is filesize.
If it's burried in cutscenes the game will take ages to load.
and I can't animate any cutscenes ....mainly 'cause I can't animate at all.
But if the guys are OK with shooting some I'd love to put 'em in.

Indy Mogul: The Game?

[animeking527]

Well...I guess that depends on what the game is like and what you have to do in the game!

[bubblefax]

sounds cool

[Serial Chiller]

Hey just here to offer my music making talent to the game. Any style, just tell me.
Ah great ,
I was thinking the background music should be
not too loud or noticable, just ... right
you know?
as for length
a short loop will do. nothing over 2 minutes or so

What kind of style is up to you..
...or anyone who wants to give it a go.

Mail something to me : sam.tubbax@gmail.com

ALSO: the game will take place in a supermarket and I'm running out of ideas for products to put on the shelves.
any suggestions?

[ericslovechild]

just use all of the products that have been used on the show.

[MikisthatChick]

Ok. You begin as a broke indy filmmaker (not that much of a stretch for most of us)Spin the wheel of prosperity. What ever budget it lands on, you have to go out and collect that much money. Once youve gained enough $, the next level you must get the items required for a special effect. Level 3 is a puzzle level where you put the peices together for the effect. After you complete level 3, the "effect" will come to life, setting up the level 4 boss battle against Eric, Steve, or Justin. WARNING, WARNING! TEST FILM APPROACHING. Defeat the effect to end the Test Film. You could do it like SMB with 3 worlds and 4 stages (World 1-1, 1-2, 1-3 etc.) each so Eric, Steve, and Justin can each be a "Boss"

hahaa this reminds me of like, zelda, indy mogul version!! haaa sweeet. i think justin would have to be link. maybe steve....erik would be the evil villans. all of them.

[MikisthatChick]

Those are great, but what about Jared and Gary? lol
So how long do you think it will take you finish the game and have it up here?

gary shud be the boss level. then they can like, avoid being beaten by puppets. thats always a good thing

You have to include "I cant beleive its not butter"

[m_kozmava]

maybe you could make a game with eric making something from a list you make

[migitmatt]

Smoke machine could fog up your screen?

[Serial Chiller]

HOLY CRAP THATS AWESOME...so whats the idea of the game? i see all the parts of the jetpack in the top left hand corner!

nicely spotted
the idea behind the game is finding the parts of BFX-episodes
it's gonna kick-ass

[DeadFishProductions]

Will you add levels with each episode? lol.

[DirectorfromDK]

I have been inspired to make a "the movies" like game where you should make test film with erik steve and so on...
I am also thinking about making small minigames based on other game ideas and so on.
Anyway if you guys need help i will help you...

directorfromdk

[punkandska66]

ya on each level there should be 2 parts. 1, fin the parts and build the prop.
2. get throught the test film. like for the bfg you gotta be michael ( or mike however you say it ) and you gott beat mr. smith.

[DirectorfromDK]

Yep thats a cool idea and i might use it but how i dont know but i wont steal serial chiller's idea i will come up with something else.
Also i would like if anybody got some nifty or cool ideas to send them to me so i can keep on working on this project.
I might make it as a .exe but i think i can convert it so it is easier to use for you guys.

BTW: there will be a Free Move minigame where you can make any testfilm you want.

directorfromdk

[animeking527]

I have been inspired to make a "the movies" like game where you should make test film with erik steve and so on...
I am also thinking about making small minigames based on other game ideas and so on.
Anyway if you guys need help i will help you...

directorfromdk
I never played that game(The Movies), was it good?

[DirectorfromDK]

Yep it is a game where you make your very own movie.
You shall both direct them get props and costumes get advanced in new tech etc etc.
It is a must for all directors and you get addicted of it i can promise you that
You should find it on amazon.com for about 34.00 $ (not sure have not checked it out)
Sorry for getting off topic...

So, this is a question for everyone thats making(or made) a game.
What programs are you useing?
What is the best?
How much is it?

BTW, this is looking beyond cool Chiller!

[DirectorfromDK]

So, this is a question for everyone thats making(or made) a game.
What programs are you useing?
What is the best?

Well i use mostly GM 7.0 since it is a easy system to use with also some cool options such as 3rd Person camera and such things like that it is good for starting purposes

Also FPS creator is far the best FPS engine out they are already in plans of making a DX 10 compatible version with much better graphics.

Also 3D Flash animator should be advanced and easy on the same time you can almost making everything in it and it is far good for internet flash purposes.

This was my small list of good engines that i use

[Serial Chiller]

So, this is a question for everyone thats making(or made) a game.

Flash 8
it rules.

+ wacom pad to make the awesomeness
even more awesome

[Darkmast508]

Bloodshed.net rules more.

[animeking527]

So how much are they all?

[PeeterCZ]

I'm making a game too. For now it looks like this:
http://rf.ic.cz/f/indymogulgame.PNG
(the arm of Cyborg Erik is fixed now)

I am using Game Maker 6.1 (i hate the new 7.0)
Internal editor of GM for the pictures
GML (Game Maker Language) for coding

[PeeterCZ]

Hey!? Is this topic dead or what? Please, comment my game project.

[PeeterCZ]

Hey!? Is this topic dead or what? Please, comment my game project.

[Serial Chiller]

It's nice :D
Love the characters.

I'd work on some more stuff in the background though if that wasn't your plan already

[PeeterCZ]

Thanks. On the background is actually nothing than grass and hedge and sky. I'm planning the wheel of prosperity which you can spin with your gun :D

[Serial Chiller]

Damn, this game is giving me drawing-cramps.
If I have to draw 1 more clone in a can-can (hehe can-can) I'm gonna get injured.
You'dd better send me a t-shirt if I finish this

[keggo24]

or like a block of foam......or a lock of steve's hair......or at least some......sandwichs....

[Serial Chiller]

damn that would rule
too bad they would have to fed-ex me those sandwiches.

[justin]

Haha, dude, we'll lavish you with so much indy mogul schwag when you finish this, you don't even know. A whole care package! I bet I could even get a lock of Steve's hair :D

[justin]

Peeter your screen grab looks awesome too!!! I love the little characters. It's going to be even better with the wheel :) And the offer of the indy mogul care package goes for you too my friend. Everyone who makes a game will be greatly rewarded !

[ericslovechild]

I'm still waiting for Erik to stop being busy. This may take a while.

A LONG while.

[felix78]

TO serial chiller: In youre game Steve must have a foam shield and a shotgun mic as a sword, But it can shoot shotgun bullets if u gain extra points, yeeeey! >:3

Oh, shut up Winchester.

[animeking527]

So, Chiller are there any new screen shots yet?

[StupidPictures]

Ok. You begin as a broke indy filmmaker (not that much of a stretch for most of us)Spin the wheel of prosperity. What ever budget it lands on, you have to go out and collect that much money. Once youve gained enough $, the next level you must get the items required for a special effect. Level 3 is a puzzle level where you put the peices together for the effect. After you complete level 3, the "effect" will come to life, setting up the level 4 boss battle against Eric, Steve, or Justin. WARNING, WARNING! TEST FILM APPROACHING. Defeat the effect to end the Test Film. You could do it like SMB with 3 worlds and 4 stages (World 1-1, 1-2, 1-3 etc.) each so Eric, Steve, and Justin can each be a "Boss"

Awesome idea, justin can be the first boss, then steve then Erick is the last boss.

And there can be a weekend extra mini-game!

[IrishDrummer7707]

Erick is the last boss.

Nah... how about the producer of Next New Works? :D

[CreatiVideoFilms]

Is there anything new going on with this or has it kinda been given up on?

[IrishDrummer7707]

I just posted literally 30 seconds ago.

[smashingrobkins]

u should have steve have like potato salad for like health

[PeeterCZ]

Oh, crap...i don't had time to work on Indy Mogul game. But i'll now do.

[PeeterCZ]

New screenshot from my game:

http://rf.ic.cz/f/indymogulgameandwheel.PNG

Steve has boom mic as stun gun.
Do you like the wheel of prosperity?

[ciwi286]

Cool. Its great to see people are still working on the games...cant wait till it comes out!

[Junior365]

All these ideas seem incredibly cool. Can't wait to play 'em.

[PeeterCZ]

Do you want to see the base of my game in motion? Well, you can. You can just control it!

BECAUSE I'M EXCLUSIVELY FOR YOU RELEASING THE VERY FIRST VERSION OF THE GAME!

You play as Steve.

Cotrols:
W,A,D: Movement
Left mouse button: Use stun-mic. (boom mic + stun gun)
If you stun the red arm on the wheel of prosperity, it spins and stops after time.

That's all...nothing more, sorry

Ouch i forgot, the download link:

DOWNLOAD (http://www.lemonstudios.xf.cz/imbase.exe)

BTW: This icon will not be in final version...I've been just lazy to make icon.

IT'S NOT WORKING ON WINDOWS VISTA!!!

[Reverend Doodle]

dude the link isnt working and thats a shame cuz this looks great

[Junior365]

Yup, just downloaded it and it doesn't work.

[PeeterCZ]

I'll upload it somewhere else, that website is down

[Junior365]

Good, good. Can't wait to play.

[PeeterCZ]

LINK FIXED! Download at my previous post

[ciwi286]

Excellent a pre-release test of the game cant wait!

[Junior365]

Huh? I can't get this one working either!

[PeeterCZ]

Do you have windows vista? If yes, you can't run it

[Junior365]

Nope, don't have Vista, I just have XP.

[PeeterCZ]

That's weird. I tried it for myself - download and execute. It worked

[Junior365]

Wait i got it working, this looks GREAT!!! Gotta be featured on Q & Erik.

[PeeterCZ]

Ah, thank you very much Junior. I'm glad you like it

[PeeterCZ]

Anyone else?

[indy42]

Can you get it for download on a mac?

[PeeterCZ]

OH...i'm really sorry. I think it wouldn't run on mac. You must emulate windows then it will maybe work, otherwise it wouldn't work. Sorry

[IrishDrummer7707]

Can you make it for Mac's???

[ciwi286]

WOW...you made that in game maker?..I tried game make and could barely make the tutorial game never mind something like this...good work!

[PeeterCZ]

I just can't make it for macs. Sorry :( I don't know how, because the program i'm working in doesn't support macs. I think it will run on emulated windows on mac.

[PeeterCZ]

ciwi: Thank you. Everything in the game is in Game Maker 6.1 (graphics too - in the bult-in editor)

[PeeterCZ]

I was thinking of some film grain and these things. is it good idea? I know how to make it, but don't know where to put it?

[justin]

The wheel is so great!!! Can't wait to see the next version

[ericslovechild]

Can't wait to see the next version
Translation: "I can't wait to see the version where I'm in it!"

[PeeterCZ]

justin: Thank you very much :)
ericslovechild: haha :D maybe true ;)

[PeeterCZ]

I really want to add justin...but seriously, i don't know what to do with him in the game?

[ciwi286]

he can have a video camera and literally "Shoot" things with it!

[PeeterCZ]

ciwi: seems like good idea!

[PeeterCZ]

Wow....maybe special weapon of the camcorder will be FLASH :D

[PeeterCZ]

So, i've worked a little...and i have a head of justin!

Does it look like justin? I think...maybe.

[snicket]

DUDE! Great job! I like the pre-release of the game..

[PeeterCZ]

What about the justin?

[snicket]

Justin looks good. I think if you made is eyes with a big white circle and then the black then that would be him.

[justin]

Pretty good me! I approve

[Darkmast508]

Hi, sorry I left for awhile, but I'm busy researching multiplayer and 3D in C++, that gives you a clue of what you an expect from the game I'm making.



EDIT: GAMEMAKER!!!!!!!?!!/?!!/! ONE OF THE MOST RESTRICTED ENGINES ON THE INTERNET??!?!?!?!?!! Pfffft.... But, I'm not going to put you down, I'm still using gamemaker occasionally. and with your permission, could I put in my project that game as a mini-game?

[ciwi286]

Woo I got me a trip 2 jersey! http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s298/ciwi286/1-8.jpg

[punkandska66]

its a lolsteve. like a lolcats, but without the cat.

[Darkmast508]

Hey, I want to tell you something, I've promised I will make an Indy mogul 3D, online game in C++, that means the whole community can play it and it's online, a nice alternative to the forums.

Story(W.I.P):
In the Year 2030, Indy Mogul is the largest company(Yes, now a company.) in the world, there are cities named after them, mount Rushmore was renovated to show there faces. In the Indy Mogul Special Effects Factory, A power surge occurs, and all the Special Effects come to life! Now, join this online community of freedom fighters to defeat the corrupt Special Effects.

Also, instead of Finding items, you find resources or Mogul-Bucks(which you can buy resources with) and you can use Resources to make your own cyborg attachments and Zombie disguises Etc and they all have an advantage!

So, the cities so far are,
Erik City - Known as Erik Jersey (Trip to Jersey!)
Steve City - Known as Potato moon colony (Dummy episode, "We live on the moon! Right?")
Justin City - Known as (I can't decide right now.)

If i've forgotten any of the crew or Erik, Steve or Justin have a better idea for the city names, tell me.

Wow, great idea it sounds awesome, but how is it going to be online and how much progress is done on this, sounds like it'll take forever.

Also, I have vista so I can't play the other one. :'(

[Darkmast508]

I need some 3D modelers with advanced experience at making High-res models.

[PeeterCZ]

Darkmast: I'm sorry but i want to make bigger game, not just a mini game :). Maybe a game where will be some minigames, but i don't know. BTW: Keep up! It sounds good!

And i don't think that GM is most restricted engine. If you use some external dlls it's great! And C++ is IMHO way similar to GM

[PeeterCZ]

So, i was just goofing around with Game Maker. I was really bored - i had an idea - Crazybrainz minigame (do you remember Fake Brains episode?)

You can try engine of it here (http://www.lemonstudios.xf.cz/crazybrainztest.exe) . Ignore the grey walls, they are from resource pack, i was lazy to make one. Enjoy it and post comments!

[PeeterCZ]

I just know that i messed something on justin - it's his head postion. Fixed in that thread (on indy mogul crew it is still messed)

(You might click few times on F5 till it comes to new version)

[PeeterCZ]

!!! ALL VISTA USERS !!!

You might have chance to play my game! I'll try to convert it for the Vista. Good huh? :learn:

[CreatiVideoFilms]

Yay! I REALLY wanna try it!

[NinternMike]

Convert to Vista? What's the game actually made for?

[sam/gone/mad]

hey it should be all the projects strike back at the crew

[punkandska66]

hey guys, i also do some game maker stuff, but its kinda crappy. anyways. i made erik and i made his weapon the blood shooter, and then i made him shoot blood, but when i press space (the command for shooting blood) the blood comes out of his head instead of out of the middle where the blood shooter is. anyone help me?

Hey man, It depends on what development platfor you are using, if you are using the actual program entitled GameMaker by Mark Overmars.... Then you need to tell your code to lower the emission point a bit. So ADD a few points to your Y axis.... Or just send me your File and I'll fix it.

Is that a good thing or bad thing?

[PeeterCZ]

I was going to convert the game for Vista, but I'm f***ing lazy :D. By the way

Eric, Steve and Justin: Could you possibly record some voices of yourself? Because the game will suck if there will be my voice for all. I don't need it now, but i'm gonna need it :). Thanks for reply.

[CreatiVideoFilms]

No convert it to vista!

[Spiderand]

Omg PeeterCZ can't wait for the game it just looks so awesome :D

[PeeterCZ]

Spiderand: Oh, thank you! I've not played your game, because i can¨t download it!

how about the original game you guys thought of , but sometimes you will have to film something and you need to use an indymogul technique, (or something from the episodes) and it can kinda go into a choose an option type thing ( like to make this shot you must have to: A) Use the home made jib arm B) Turn image stabilization on C) use the steadycam that the steadycam operator showed us.
