ECLIPSE [ Character presentation video! ]

[Drolpiraat]

WELCOME TO THE END OF IT ALL - THE ECLIPSE

Have you looked around you recently? This world is not the world you were born in. These creatures, lurking in the darkness, have grown. They have prepared this day for a long time… the day of the eclipse. Today, they will execute Mr. Dark’s evil will. Covered by his cloak of darkness, the world will become his slave. Happiness and light will lose their meaning.
It is too late for us now. Only they who stand against His will, still have a chance to rise… and shine.

INFORMATION

Teaming up with the Robo-Pirates, Mr. Dark has become more powerful than ever. He has not yet lost his dream of robbing the world of its heart. Electrix, an electoon and one of his most loyal servants, turns from the dark side, and together with his friends, he travels through 6 worlds to defeat Mr. Dark and his allies once and for all.


The screenshots were taken from the project in Q1 2009. You can see a video ( recorded in June 2009 ) HERE.

A second demo is set to release in Q3 or Q4 2009. This demo will show you the first level of the game.

Nice!

Looks interesting.

[Lachimax]

Cool! I like the sound of this!

[chrisgreathouse010]

yea, but one question. If we send you a fan character, do we have to send you a sprite of it? because I've never made a sprite before.

[Drolpiraat]

No, no sprite I make the sprites myself

Just a drawing or something - so I know how your fancharacter looks.

[Jman]

That's cool looking.

Coolio!

[Drolpiraat]

Second Screeny!

[Blok2004]

Looks great!!!!!!!!

Can't wait to see the final game Being a game designer my self i think its great that you are sticking with this project (one of my big problems)

Great job

[Drolpiraat]

Hey guys! Get ready for a BIG update!
Here is... a playable ( early alpha ) demo for Electoons, called DemoToons Alpha 1!
This zip file includes:
- The main executable
- A Project File ( *.gmk ) for all those who have GM7 registered to look at the project's source code
- All other files need to be extracted in the same directory as the exe/gmk file, otherwise the game will not be able to run.

http://rapidshare.com/files/43840829/Demotoons.zip
For the controls, press F1 while the game is running ( menu or ingame ).

FOR THOSE WHO USE GAME MAKER 7:
If you execute the source code, you will probably see an error with an extension package. That's because you don't have the Winskin extension package installed. So download it here:
http://gmc.yoyogames.com/index.php?show ... hl=winskin

Remember, as this is a very very early alpha demo, this game does not include very much yet. Real platforming, bosses, etc. aren't included yet. This demo is just for testing purposes ( searching for bugs, etc. ). Example: There is only one enemy, and that enemy is located in Mr Dark's Lair ( but you may see that enemy can actually be hard to defeat ) ( Oh, and mr dark is not an enemy in this demo! Just someone to talk to, who says that YOU ARE DOOMED haha )

And thanks, Blok2004!

[Jman]

Very nice Drolie.

[RayKretes150]

WOW

[Beebop]

Yeah, good Droolie.

[Drolpiraat]

Thanks everyone ^^

Oops, forgot to mention the controls.
You can find the controls in the help file, you can access it when you press F1

Looks great, Neshae is called Rayman in the game though.

Wish I could've tried using online mode.

BTW: If you remembered my character, Jimmy Thunder/The Raymanian Torch of the Favorite Four, if you need more info on him or how he looks, watch the Fantastic Four Movie. It'll give you information and looks. Just transform his look into a Raymaniany look.

[Lachimax]

I don't mean to be a party pooper, but there is a glitch. If you talk to someone, you cannot move to the next thing they say, or even quit their speech, unless you go to another room. But apart from that, it's bloody fantastic! The graphics are great, and I can see that you have worked extremely ####### this game. I can tell that the gameplay will become very good as well.
Could you send me the coding for the Antitoon enemy? Cause I'd like to make similar enemies in my game.

[Newray]

Wow Drolpiraat! Your GameMaker skills must be great. I mean, I'm still not able to make something like this on my own. And you've chosen great engines for the lightning, etc. I can't wait for the full version of the game, just like for Phoenixan's one. And maybe I'll ever start my own Rayman fangame project.

[Drolpiraat]

Thanks everyone!

And now, for the replies:

@Kelvin: I know he's called Rayman, I just saw that when I had uploaded the demo. It was kinda made in a rush ( I had promised someone I would release a demo that day ), so....
BTW: I remember your character, and everyone's characters, but I'm still busy adding them all
I can't watch the movie though, as my father wouldn't allow me to buy it. I could download it, but before I do that, isn't there any youtube video that features the character?

@Lachimax: Uhh... you could try to buy a new computer, or try to fix it using several hacks/updates, and then uninstalling every single program on your computer and install them again to run the game. Of course, there are still easy ways, and one of these is just pressing ENTER when the character has finished talking to you...
The coding for the whole game is included in the zip file for you ( Electoons - Project.gmk - It's for Gamemaker 7 Pro )

@Newray: Thank you! I actually got the idea of making this game after I saw Phoenixan's game, so I can't wait either for both full games
And I do hope you will start your own Rayman fangame project sometime, so we could all enjoy some great Rayman games! ^^
