Nice work, by the way, considering I only released this earlier today :)
You should try going one of the other paths now.. going right is the next most complete way.
Alright.. I've changed it so he's a little higher up now.: show
This is easily the best IWBTG fangame.
Best fangame!^Well I'm glad you guys like it :D
@tijitdamijitaww.. I'm liked ^^
:O:O:O:O
I love you if you're a girl. Otherways just like.
Yup.. I'm working on it. I completed the pacman level and the lead-up to the pokemon fight. The other boss I currently have planned is going to be 'Snake'.. but it's finite state machine is going to be horrendous. It may be easier just to give it ai.....
Did anybody beat the part in Portal?
Uhh... how do you get past the chest with coins inside? when I drop down there's only spikes.
EDIT: nvm got past it, now at the screen after it. Man I lol'd when I first got there :D
EDIT2: NVM DAT EITHER! hehe stuck at boss, the green orbs phase :D And... Why doesn't the save work? :(
yea, exactly Can it be fixed or sumthin?.
I cant beat the boss since it's too low in the last phase :( It's not So hard to get there, but still :(
I can't realize how to finish the plane screen, when I go past the three spikes (middle one goes up) the plane comes and bombaz me to death.
Hey, I'm at the part afterand it's impossible. I can't run that fast.: show
@Kòppís ^^,: The stop signs were supposed to be temp graphics.. but never got around to fixing it :P
Perhaps I'll have to have an obsession with stops signs, instead of the moon.
ok, so when i fight the: show
how do I get past the snake room? I can get to the left side but then the plane kills me :( and I'm also stuck at pacman, there I've seen the red ghost stop on the left side. Could you do a video or something for pacman?Snake Room:
i took physics too cat...Go ahead this year, too. :3
except im taking ap next year...
if i ever need help can i ask you?
SECOND EDI T(S):
I fixed up the bobble boss a bit, and changed a couple of bits on the portal path.
Also, that bug to do with getting stuck in the walls in vertical room transitions is now fixed.
Samson: show
Also, I'm uploading videos of the boss fights. There currently isn't any sound since my sound drivers won't allow me to record from the speakers and my microphone is currently busted. Expect this post to be edited later with the video additions.
Left Path: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=RuD_9XRiEbI
it seems to lag with custom controls
In the next release, I'm also slowing the frame-rate slightly, so the vertical velocity won't seem as fast. This won't mess things up because I think the player and the bullets moved slightly too fast anyway. Hopefully the timing won't get messed because of this.
I got stuck in the right path.: show
wait, is it like death from castlevania?
: show
Good lord.
Another thing I'm doing (which you may all find evil) is a room all by itself, in the final castle, with a little sign that says 'No Bows', and if you try to skip by it in medium, you get zapped. So you have to play on Hard, Very Hard, or Impossible to actually finish the game.
I was thinking more along the lines of a cave-story type ending, where there's an extended ending, but you can only do it on hard or above. Also, I'll make it so that some secret items cannot be obtained on medium.
I couldn't resist:

NOTE: Don't try to find it yet, it's not in the beta v2

Here's my impossible run on the left path.ohh nice run, but im going to try to beat it this weekend =p
http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=fhc2ed2r358 (http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=fhc2ed2r358)
Beat that, DeLi.
I beat everything in the left path, including the boss roundoff, then went right again, and died in the DII level, on an easy double jump :/
so you've beaten my right run..and maybe the right..try to beat my middle run kk? =pYeah sure why not. I got an exam on the 15th, 17th and 18th though.. so any time I'm not studying I will be working on the game.. not trying to play it on impossible.
I can do a pretty good chick voice.
but then again I can do a lot of different thigns.
isn't iwbtg supposed to be kinda jokey?
I can pull a "manly" chick voice out of my ass.

Yeah.. I noticed that error last time I playtested that bit.. and it's fixed now ;)
And yeah.. the secret items in this game do actually do something. Here is a motivational list:
1) you get access to the alternate ending
1) you have to go through more bosses and level design and stuff to get them.. I mean isn't that why you're playing it?
1) they're cool
1) yeah.. I've run out of stuff to put on this list
1) CAKE!
Yeash!
Beta v3 is approaching, people...
... GEP gun ...Is that pronounced as 'Gap exept with an E' or 'G-E-P'?
Am I the 1st one? :P
naw i dont think any1 has almost beaten game on impossible =p.Am I the 1st one? :P
How could you be the first one if they have almost beat the game on impossible...
I beat it so far. It's pretty good. However:I agree with everything said here, except the first one as I have no idea what it means.
The keylift screen transistion should not kill you. Either have it openly state that you need to jump or make it safe to drop down.
The Bubble Bobble boss wasn't to my liking. I'm sorry, I just don't like the idea of it. Plus when I first fought, I had assumed he was glitched.
I absolutely despise the difficulty select screen. It's a cool idea in theory, but it just doesn't work. :(
Please, just put spikes or solid walls at parts you don't want us to go to. I don't want to have to die randomly because I think I'm going the right way when it's just a killer dead-end.
Please, just put spikes or solid walls at parts you don't want us to go to. I don't want to have to die randomly because I think I'm going the right way when it's just a killer dead-end.What are you referring to with this?
Am I meant to try to outrun the portal which is a few screens after the bubble bobble?No, just let it clip you. It'll teleport you back to the beginning.

I don't suppose anyone can tell me how to avoid the rising spikes in the level after the Cacodemon?
thankyou.I don't suppose anyone can tell me how to avoid the rising spikes in the level after the Cacodemon?: show

I made it to the screen after theand saved right at that yellow DEMO wall. Did I miss something by not going up instead?: show
tijitdamijit deserves a knighthood for this.:fruit:

zomg how i kill bub?
also is there a way to skip the dialogue at glados fight?nvm i figured it out =p
edit: omg how do u beat the scrolling screen boss? the one left of pacmanI'm posting a vid of all the secret items when I get home.
@Samson: You were not supposed to be able to dodge those cherries when you're moving to the right.. I don't how the hell you managed to get past every single one :0
How the hell are we supposed to pronounce your name?
Well.. I guess I need to fix up that falling cherries room. I want to keep it how it is now, only so it's not possible to dodge them if you don't jump down to that platform... however getting that exactly right has proven to be trickier than expected. I'll work on it.. or just outright change it, if it proves to be too difficult :P
Koppis, your save has been saved. Fixed. Whatever I thought it was funny :/
Then I ended up doing this::-X
(http://img116.imageshack.us/img116/5852/xdrj3.png)
Hey.. I just wanted to know from the people who finished the game (or watched the 3rd part of the walkthrough): What did you think of the ending?
I wanted it to be funny, but anticlimactic at the same time, to make players want to go back and try out the other ending. Thoughts?
Tijit, when's the next version going to come? :)Well, considering during my exam-revision time I spent around 5-6 hours a day working on it, I don't think I could go any faster. I'm having a quick break for a few days, then I'm getting back stuck into it again.
Or a guitar hero room where you'd have to dodge the notes, then at the end you must escape because the last note is a 5 note chord.
Damn it ... I did it again, died there on Impossible...wow i was going to beat tijit's record..now i gues i have to beat urs lol
Edit!
New impossible record! (beat you tijit!)
right path underwater w!
Not cheating, check the missing save spots.
No you can't. I've also beat SK and cockdemon before those parts too. Tij, make them take around 15 moar hits to kill? :)
That would be cool.
How's the mushroom kingdom going?
Are you the "Mattmakesgames" Matt?
Well, I thought I'd just let people know:
This is now the most popular game I've ever created. The beta v3 has received (at current count) 2,673[/i] downloads.. which is staggering, considering next in line is anticitizen 0.7, with only 299 downloads. I couldn't believe it when I saw that number.. man I'm still getting over the shock :p
Anyway, now I'm in the habit of making games again I'll probably pick this project up again at some stage. To round it off, and give it more polish.
erm i wanna play this but after i DLd it ands tarted playing
the first time i died i tried to press r but it said:
ERROR in
action number 1
of Key Press Event for R-key Key
for object world:
Error opening file for writeing.
Abort Ignore
when i presss abort the game shuts down, when i press ignore i respawn but the GAME OVER screen is there, and it wont go away
gratz for 4000 downloads!5001 downloads now =D
Quotegratz for 4000 downloads!5001 downloads now =D
You can't really do anything about the lag, other than get a new computer. Game Maker is too inefficient :/
5001 downloads now =D
you can deactivate objects that are off screen, not sure if you already have though. anyway its a cool game.
Congrats man!5559 at last count. The number of downloads is approaching NINE THOUSAND. Here's to hoping it won't be asymptotic =D
you have a heatwave? i have snow 6 inches deep!
btw i cant get past the pokemon boss. i can kill the cacodemon or whatever and i can kill bub, but the pokemon dude....

GO FASTER! >:(k.
Woop, one of my levels!It's no longer a no bows area, the whole no-bows concept sucks and I'm removing it.
Did you finish sky-castle-ing the rest of the no-bows area?
I downloaded first the Alpha, then the Beta version, but all of them say that my graphic cards don't meet the requirements to play this game. I've tried switching everything to a lower resolution, but nothing works. How do I solve this problem?Uhh.. to be honest, I really wouldn't know how to fix that.. what are your pc's specs?
The game is very fun, but I reccomend not having the music restart every time you die as it does in IWTBTG. In a gmae where you are supposed to continually die, listening to kust the beginning of a song really gets annoying. Just a suggestion!One of the 'points' to this is to be frustrating, let alone annoying. It's something you'll just have to put up with, or switch off your speakers.

Hm... there seems to be a fine line between frusterating and annoying. Oh well, it doesn't matter. I already beat the entire thing on hard and get all 5 secret items
I'm cutting out a few frames (e.g. the first frame in the desert area never worked, and "The only cherry.." frame will be removed coz it sucks).[/OH THANK YOU! That frame was pure torture!
I also wanted a mecha-spagettio boss but that got scratched
HEART OF DARKNESS IS AWESOME AND HARD ESPECIALLY THE FUCKING BIT AT THE END WTF DO YOU DO THERE ANYWAY?Man, I don't even remember, but I found the disc for it lying around, and thought to myself "why the SHIT did I not think of this before" and then proceeded to start playing through the game, ripping stuff as I went.
oh my fucking god the grimp reaper is ripping off my balls and feeding them to giant clones of docter eggman, and raping my ass with his stupid scyth of death at the SAME TIME!
How? i have the same issue.. i know how to open it in notepad but after that i don't know..
Just wondering if anyone else beat the sticky keys boss with all five secret items and is stuck in the scrolling cloud section.
Can you change jump to z and shoot to x because my shift has a problem.
Eversion.Yes, I said Eversion. So expect eversion reference(s).
Eversion.
Quick suggestion:
Since you're making new content in all three paths, make the old saves invalid with the final release so we're forced to see everything in all its glory. It'd be pretty lame if most of us have a beta save at or near the final boss, skipping most of the new things you worked so hard to put in. Yes, that would mean that we all have to go through it all over again, but for most of us, it shouldn't be too difficult doing everything again and I'm sure the new areas will present fresh challenges to keep us going.
Also:QuoteEversion.

So, to clarify, the existing secret items will now have a purpose, yet I will have to obtain them all again?
There will be *possibly* 16 secret items in totalOmg that's a lot more!
I like this. Hope you'll release is as soon as possible.
yeah whats with the link fishing thing?
i really didn't wanna do a left path so i found a way around the blue portal
Thanks for the replies everyone. One more question: what is that pumpin' song during The Trials?
Nice to hear a release date. Wonder if I'm like the 3rd best player of this in the world :O
Oh, it's really a handsome game ! Congratulations =D ... The portal screen and the pokemon screen are very nice to play ^^ ...
A super tribute to IWBTG.
Thanks for this game ^.^
Actually, am I the only one who thought the first trial was sorta easy once you found out you had to hit all the platforms, and you remembered all of them? Once you know how to do it, pretty simple, not too much trial and error compared to some other challenges. The second was annoying but also easy, and the third was a bit of a whore and would be fine without that last part ARGH I'm still mad about that you guys.
I think you should somehow transplant the upper part of that cavey ruins level and make those The Trials. Those made my head hurt.

I'm really glad the game has people like you playing it, Especialy now. I keep getting worried that we're putting all this work into creating awesome secret areas (Some of which are arguably the best screens in the game), which almost no one will ever see. Knowing that at least you guys are checking the unfinished versions out already is very reassuring.
The trials are now pretty much done, and will rock your socks quite throughly. The fifth trial is something very special.
As for the difficulty, it's all been played with a bit, so it should be a bit better there.
Here's a special screenshot of a recent level, just because we love you:

Oh boy that looks like fun.

i was reading through the comments and watched a few walkthroughs. i cant understand why people fail at the left path! i can get through the left path on impossible, and i did that just after beating it on medium mode with 3 deaths! ITS EASY. make the blue flower part much harder because... its just too easy!I just want to say, I hate people like you.
also i demand moar screenyz!

Man, im just dying to play the completed version. This game and getting 100% on Jumper 2 are the only things that ever came close to the level of frustration produced by the original. I want that feeling again!
1 month before the official release date, April 10.
Oh wait....
Well never mind :P We just gotta patch up the final boss and the ending and you playtesters get to playtest something.
Hmm, also need a spiffy credits sequence and a menu system for multiple saves huh. Why is it now I have a two-week break.. I'm getting LESS done on it. Hurr.
Is there going to be some kind of kill count feature in the final release?
Since my problem seems to have been forgotten seeing as it is the last post on the 30th page...
This game keeps crashing on me when it loads up the first frame. I am able to choose a difficulty but when I do it makes a glitchy squelch sound and it crashes. It gives me the "This program has ran into trouble and needs to shut down" window. Also I am able to play until I die then it fully crashes and I have to shut it down.
Pic if it helps.
This is going to be so much better that IWBTG.You're a douche.
I.. actually have no idea what's causing that crash. It's probably a hardware problem, or something to do with Game Maker. What operating system are you running it on and what's your computer specs? Can you run iwbtg fine?
Touché.
You're a douche.
Just beat this on Very Hard mode a few days ago :)
Enjoyed the game!!
:kid:
I am having problems playing this game. As soon as I select a difficulty, the game freezes on the first screen and stops responding. It creates a save file called "save0" and another file called "temp". Is anyone else having this problem or can anyone suggest a remedy?
Sounds like GM is crashing whenever it tries to use the external media player to play music. You got a media player installed? If you do I'm not sure what the problem is.

@SevasTra:
I tried googling your problem and found this: http://gmc.yoyogames.com/index.php?showtopic=373726
Does it help?
bawwwwwwwwwwwww
no rush though seriously, life is pretty important and all. Happy birthday.
It was a pretty good fan game, it was a lot of fun and was pretty hard aswell :P
BUT, i had 2 issues with it:
1. The levels did not have the same charm like the original IWBTG.
2. The use of traps was very repetitive in most levels, the flying spike trap was done to death.
But the game was very original, the bosses were fun and overall it was a pretty good game :)
8/10
If you ask me, all the levels so far are absolutely perfect. Traps were maybe just a bit repetitive, but not so much that you could beat an area on your first or second attempt. Nothing's bad.
Yes. I've been waiting for the new version like forever. Seriously.If you ask me, all the levels so far are absolutely perfect. Traps were maybe just a bit repetitive, but not so much that you could beat an area on your first or second attempt. Nothing's bad.
Thanks man, we really appreciate comments like this. Still, I think you're wrong, and a lot of levels needed fixing up, so fix them up we have! Should have a progress update up soon.
I still have the folder on my desktop named 'may 15th' with the last beta thing in it.

Oh and Hey, Da Gal, Your knowledge of the game impresses even me! People like you are what's helping us actually get this finished!
So me and Tij got together and did some serious work on the game today. We're now rockin' a sweet new menu system and can handle multiple saves!
question: this game rox but i have to ask,how did you expect people to find the trial's?
So the trials where not meant to be found yet but only on the full version..? COOOOL!
oh yeah and by the way have an idea instead of pressingto enter the trials, you need to grab the cake from GaLdOs: showor somthing i still lov this game 10/10 some freinds of mine are looking forward to the next update soon!: show
That's... Scary-close to what we've actually ended up doing..
Fuck !
After the pokemon part when u fall on the cloud, i went on the right in the "iwbtg first screen" part.
Is there anyway to go on the left ( because i saw that you have to go on the left ) or i have to do all this path again ? =(
Fuck !H4x the save to go to the start screen.

thanx oh and i no that the mario level when the kid hits the mushroom he grows too big and exlodes LOL its good!!!
so does the dark blue menu screen!!!!
Why is this game freezing when I try to run it in CrossOver? I thought CrossOver was compatible with Game Maker.Owned by shitty software. Just because something *says* its compatible, doesn't mean it runs it very well.
Is it possible to port this to the Multimedia Fusion engine?Hell no. You should be slapped for even suggesting such a thing.
this game still continues to impress me...
also i made a record of where i got up to without getting killed
-middle- end of pokemon boss
- left - screen before the chest
-right- the Snake area (or the GaLdOs secret room)
-end- the only cherry in this game screen
-trials- 3rd trial
i know tijitdamijit has one this on impossible, so Matt what is your record?
PS when will the aprox release date be? :D
i really CANNOT wait: show
oh and one more question the mario section where about is it?
thanx so about 5 weeks? sure i will wait then... lol
I'd like to report a glitch, in case no one noticed my last post. I originally thought this had to do with a secret item, but i was wrong. It seems that now whenever I continue, it throws me into the wrecking ball room, all the spikes rise up, and the kid falls onto them. No method of escape. Even after I reload it does this, but if I start a new game, I'm safe. Fix this, please.
The Trials, it didn't do that glitch up until I entered there.
That's what save surgery is for :fruit:
This is quite a great game, but I don't really like the sound of a fangame.
I don't like many IWBTG fangames because they just weren't as well thought up as the normal game, if you added more known games with matching music the game would flow quite a bit better. I really would not recommend any games that aren't very popular because the people playing the game won't know what it is. With the regular IWBTG, most of the areas were easily recognized by people who know some of their Nintendo games, classics like Castlevania, The Legend of Zelda, Megaman, etc. were included because they are well known series to gamers. The point is, if people can't recognize some of the areas/bosses (besides your original ones) you shouldn't use them, because it will be a lot less like IWBTG.

One of the other fangames (I Wanna be the Tribute) already has the grinning colossus as a secret boss. You've been beaten to the punch. :D
I've gotta say, I've been loving this game so far. I spent endless hours on IWBTG and I'm doing exactly the same with this. I do have a problem though.
I've been playing on Medium mode and uh,: show
What am I meant to do? I can't find a way out of it and everytime I reset I'll just end up back in the desert. :(
I've gotta say, I've been loving this game so far. I spent endless hours on IWBTG and I'm doing exactly the same with this. I do have a problem though.
I've been playing on Medium mode and uh,: show
What am I meant to do? I can't find a way out of it and everytime I reset I'll just end up back in the desert. :(
What's the endless desert? I'm currently battling stickykeys, and I don't remember an endless desert at any point before it.
So Matt lied? There is actually another spot where the save can be ruined!? :o >:( 9_9
But seriously, that sucks. :'(
: show: show
Sorry dudes, shit isn't like that in the final version
Sorry dudes, shit isn't like that in the final version
That sucks, there should be a lot of "save traps" in the medium mode...
However I wanna post my last accomplishment: Cleared the 3 trials on impossible mode and beaten Cacodemon (or whatever is called) and the pokeboss... I died in a room before the dragon... of course, Impossible mode too, but I bet when I kill the 3 bosses I will die in the "Psyche!" area.
"Someday my friends" (UltraJMan's voice) I'll clear this game in Impossible, in fact, I like IWBTFG better, sry Kayin.
: show: show
How the fuck do you beat the trials? I made it to the end of the third one, but died when I tried to get into the next room. Is there something I'm missing?
So, is this game done?
So, is this game done?
I beat Pokemon before Cacodemon and I didnt get that. Hell, if I know how that happened.
Wow... This fangame is popular. This thread should be stickied.
So... how much time O_O... I just like... can't wait anymore... :kid:
So... how much time O_O... I just like... can't wait anymore... :kid:
Are you asking me? Asking me how much time before Fangame is done? It won't be for quite some time. Of course, if I get more people on the project team, it'll go faster.
So yeah, we're still alive over here. Sorry for the lack of updates but things have been pretty busy. For one, the Adelaide GDC's Sprung up and we're both members (I'm a board member), so that's been going on. Tij is also working on a 'Mecha Sphegettio" boss that's a secret I haven't even had a chance to test it yet, so I'll let you guys know when I get something on that.
: show
Hey... what in hell are you supposed to do in the:: show
:spikes: :spikes:I'm just stuck there O_O :spikes: :spikes:
Great Fangame btw =-D, and I cleared some years ago the original IWBTG =D
EDIT: OMFG... forget it >:( , the person that made this game... is insane

HURRY UP WITH THIS FRIGGING GAME ALLREADY.
now stay on topic.
Now tell us, Tij, where do you plan to place the new content? My guess would be behind the demo wall at the end, since it looks pretty set up for something new. Or are you going to keep it a secret until the release?
I demand a room in which your controlls are reversed. Quick before I put it in IWBTA.
wow... I played this way back when he first finished stickykeys... he's still working on it?>??
;;edit;; I just caught up on like 25 pages of thread. Sounds like you guys have put a lot of work into this. TBH, the fact that it was more difficult than IWBTG was the one thing I didn't like about it. The super difficulty of this game might destroy any chance of playing through it all over again from the beginning. I'm certainly going to try though.
I've been powering through IWBTG fangames lately, just to see where the community is at. I restarted mine after like a year. Remade the engine from scratch, threw in a dialogue system, etc. I see there's a fangame that implemented giant Bullet Bills that blow through the scenery, which I had coded months before it came out... I wonder if any of the new content here includes ideas that I had for my game.
I remember you guys were talking about a Guitar Hero part before b3 was out. Did you ever put that in? I had a Rock Band part finished in my WIP before my old PC crashed, and I fully intend on remaking that screen as a boss fight. Lemme know. Looking forward to the full release.
thousands of games have dialogue...
running in the '90's isn't it?

It's pretty amazing.

- The ticking time bomb
Example:Quotebecause if you do, and the game is actually gonna be finished someday, no one will remember this game. because no one did hear any news of the progress for like a year.
Also known as: "If you don't give me the game now, I'm gonna leave and never come back. You're losing fans, man!!!" Again, this argument exists to put pressure on the team. They're in a race against time. If they don't finish the game quickly, there'll be nobody left to play it. (this goes back to the "praise is as good as money"-element) This is of course a fallacy, since the majority of people who downloaded the demo will play it, semi-forget about the game while they go on with life and regain interest when the full game is out. Of course, even the people who MAKE this argument and then leave when their demands aren't satisfied STILL come back and play the game when it's out. Don't worry, they will.
Hm. Fair enough. Well, both Tij and I finished our exams for uni for the year today, so expect updates soon!
Yeah, so save files are now encrypted. Try hacking my game now, bitch. (That wasn't a genuine threat or challenge, but I'm pretty sure someone will crack the algorithm within 30 minutes of it's release)
Consequently, saves will not be compatible between versions. Go ahead, try it.

It's worth it. We've changed so much that it really does feel fresh. Without that, a lot of people would miss out on a lot of the cool stuff we've done anyway :(

@Sammy: Umm no, actually. Guess again.
@StillTheKid: Yeah you can now click the X or use the Esc key to quit the game. Implemented that a fair while ago due to complaints about alt+f4 not working on some computers.
@Sammy: Umm no, actually. Guess again.Close enough. It decodes perfectly by 255 - (character) both ways, so its still terrible.

The "x" button...isn't that too close to the "z" shoot button
What does everyone think of an online achievements system? If everyone uses it, you can find out just how many other people have done certain things - ie defeated each boss, which secret items, and who has beaten the game.omg the achievement disease is now hitting iwbtg fangames as well!
Also, it's good statistics for me as well, and of course achievements are awesome (:

It would be a nice addition, but personally I wouldn't be any less happy if you didn't include it. If you think you might end up still working on extra features after release then I'd say save it for then, otherwise meh. At the moment I'm taking the philosophy that we've been waiting so damn long I don't really care what extra features are in it as long as I can actually play the game when it's done. xD
Then why can you only go to ONE in the beginning? That is pretty linear, unlike IWBTG. A linear path game is no justified tribute to IWBTG. It needs to have all or most of the paths accesible from the beginning.Just because you don't have the thinking power to find them doesn't mean they don't exist.
9_9Whatever. I have more thinking power than all of you. I have also tried going to every sub heading, and they all take you to the same place. I am fourteen and i have made better games than that. And don't even start on my intelligence, I am already taking college courses and am in the 11th grade. So in my opinion, you are the dumbass. And i didn't even give the game enough time to find the secret path because I thought the first room was retarded. I also glitched it and got stuck in the endless desert, and teleported behind a DEMO barrier. So STFU!

Okay...you were basicly bashing the game.
Who's side are you taking? And if I could, I would like to ask a question.
Does what I say about the owner of this thread's game have anything to do with them? Can't I just make suggestions? I realize it was stated forcefully but I am brutally honest, I don't try to candy-coat things. I was only telling him what I thought he could change. I was not insulting HIM, just his game. So isn't all this bickering irrelevant?
I think i'm going to stop responding to unkind posts about whether or not i'm a jackass, because, frankly, I don't really really care.
Would it be fine if I state what I DO like?Yes, just stop with the arguing. This includes everyone else as well.

urgh!!! pokemon!!!! ???
Anyway this section was pretty cool...ah good times...take you time making the update...
@Lionheart: well thanks for the feedback, the room with all those crosses that fall has been removed in the final version.
Most of the tiles and music from those first sections are from Wonder Boy III: The Dragon's Trap (on the Sega Master System)
thanks you all.
Any of you want them for your fan games?
Well, I've decided that I can't wait for the final version, and decided to try the beta v3. It's actually really fun. I'm at the first boss.
The final version is gonna be released quite soon actually, I got a heap of work done this morning.Awesome! Care to give us a teaser picture/video or something? :D
i just started over, then it happened again directly after the Puzzle Bobble boss. I'm not very good at saving D:
It was the screen right before the puzzle bobble area, the green one with the blue square. I saved so that I would continuously fall into the spike at the top left.
Yeah, closed beta testing will start like.. heaps soon. It's not quite ready but I figure it can't hurt. There is a new ending, and an incomplete credits sequence.you forgot the 3 fonts
Stuffs:
-14,284 Lines of Code
-3,531 rooms generated (not all of them are being used)
-8,191 objects generated
-7,800 sprites and background textures
-More than 25 MB of Music and Sound Effects
-3 Fonts
-Project Started 11th October 2008
-More than 10 secret items/areas/bosses (and more to come, that part hasn't quite been finished yet)
-3 Fonts
All up I think the final file size is looking at around.. maybe 28MB? Shouldn't be too bad for those poor suckers who are still on dialup.
Right now my priority is finishing the secret areas, getting the Trailer released, and getting the closed beta to all those who I deem are eligible to playtest the final version before it has been released.

Good luck!

How many secret areas are even there?
How big are these secret areas?Be Patient!
How many secret areas are even there?
How big are these secret areas?Keep going this way and they wont be secret anymore.
They're secret and they'll stay that way.. or at least until people put up youtube vids of them. But they're so hard to find and some of them are so difficult that I'm guessing it'll be a fairly long amount of time before people have found them all. I'm not underestimating you guys, I'm just an evil bastard, and wanted something that'll last. So I think somehow that me and the other developers are gonna have a bet on how quickly people can find all the items. I would say 2 months, but only coz I know there are some people out there who aren't gonna stop until they find them.
Ho BTW, hi ;D
I'm at what I think is the end, and I can't beat theDoes v3 have that? I can't remeber which one I downloaded.: show
Anyway, how to dodge?: show
So how's the game coming along? Sounds like it's almost finished. Can't wait to try the latest version.
Didn't do any fangame work today, I played through bioshock instead. Man, some of the plot twists were freaking awesome. Anyways.. I should be back to work now.Sorry for a little derail here, but Bioshock is FUCKING AWESOME
@The Mort: Too bad, that song is fuckin amazing. Go play Ape Escape. Or listen to it's soundtrack.
@Matt: NNiiiice. Is it going to be ready for tonight's deadline?
Yeah bioshock ain't half-bad, I tried playing through twice before now, and found it boring. Glad I finally like it though :P
i say take your time to make the game...you can't rush brilliance...

Thanks man. We're planning on getting some done tomorrow (i.e; today), so that should be good.
I really keep planing on posting you guys more status updates but.. ugh.. effort.
I gotta find some appropriate music for the background of the trailer

Having no idea what your taste in music is, I'll recommend some 8-bit rock done by a band called Anamanaguchi, you can listen to their second album @ http://www.dawnmetropolis.com/ (http://www.dawnmetropolis.com/)
Anamanaguchi rocks, didn't know there were more fans of their work on this forum.
Sorry guys, But tij has some stuff going on which is slowing deveopment for a week. Hope you guys can hold on a little longer. Sorry!
On a brighter note, We've fixed up the Pac Man area, and the ending is looking amazing! Going to blow some minds yo.
And a website is in the works! Coming soon!

Something I've been wondering about is, what does rooms generated actually mean? How is it different from rooms used? Why is this number so high?
Any idea how many rooms are actually in the game?

Why don't you invest in an external drive? They've lowered in cost and have tons more storage than when they first came out...Don't forget that a fair few are secret areas, menu rooms, deleted scenes etc
Deleted scenes? Does that mean that after about 6 months after the game's release, we'll see a IWBTFG Director's Cut? Actually, that kinda sounds cool...

So we have to play the same game twice, just with added extras?
What a ri-- wait, at least its free. Unlike The Lego Games... it will also have replay value anyway am i right?
Actually we'll probably start charging $50 for the easter edition.

It would be hilarious if you beat the original game after finding all of the secrets, and it gave you a coupon code for the easter edition based on how long you took to beat it/how many times you died, kind of like the ranking system after the first Metal Gear Solid game...

Ease up on the emotes. x_x
Eh, I'm not particularly excited about this game anymore. It'll probably take a while before I try it after the new version finally comes out.

I'm currently playing through the Beta again, I'm currently stuck on Trial 2. Anyone got tips on how to pass these flying purple squares of doom?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0wrfe3YFWU (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0wrfe3YFWU)Nice better looking bit.
(http://i45.tinypic.com/35cijk4.jpg)I had quite a lot of trouble here too. I found it useful to just use 2 blocks in the corner and jump between them every few seconds. This should help you easily dodge them all, instead the ones coming from right above you.
This is the 2nd trial that's right after getting the green potion in the desert after Alex Kidd. Each square (at random) starts to spin like those tiles in Legend of Zelda Link to the Past and launch towards you.
I was just wondering if anyone had tips to how to handle these.
Oh yeah, and each brick on the bottom floor fall except those immediately under another block.
how do u get to that room?
how in the hell do u get out of the pokeball after beating mew???
In the Mecha Dragon area (the countdown section) what's the song that is playing?
... I know beta v4 has, which is going to be released, hopefully by monday. ...*Sits and waits*
The first people
I'll need about 28 more hours.
A note: The first people to complete the game and unlock all available secret areas and items and prove it win exclusive playtesting on future builds, and probably other projects created by myself. It's not much.. but I can't really afford to give away cash prizes, and I thought a little incentive like that would put the pressure on pro players who want to finish this as quickly as possible.
In the Mecha Dragon area (the countdown section) what's the song that is playing?
The boss music from wonder boy 3.
I'll need about 28 more hours.28 hours?
In this release I'm also trialling a mode called "Time Attack". You start with 10 minutes, killing a boss gives you an additional 6 minutes, you have to beat the game before the timer runs out. It's heaps glitchy (ie some of the music breaks), but you'll still have to beat that mode in order to get all available items. I'll need people to playtest that mode thoroughly if they want it to be an official feature in a future patch.I can try. :D
So the game's heaps finished. Just doing some minor things to make sure for certain that there's no fuck ups in what we did. Yes seriously, the game is DONE. FINISHED. I know I said 28 hours but expect release in two days. I can't believe it! BRB getting drunk and playing the new portal updateWhat's the new Portal update?

Same goes for me. I've always wanted to do something like thisYeah, do you still need voice acting?
Not to be rude or anything, but it's been about 5 days since you said it would be released in 2.
Can't wait for May 10th!!
In all seriousness, just keep working at the game until it's complete.
Just haven't had the time to re-playtest the stand-alone build.Let us do that for you. :D

Imagine if a gaming company did this - They 'completed' the game, but didn't have the resources to go through and check to see if there were any game-crippling bugs to sort out. So they release the game, people find out that there IS a game-crippling bug, and everyone is upset, they pull the rest of the copies off the shelf, they give free fixed games to those who bought the bad version on top of another free game- a huge loss of money, sure, but also damaging the company's reputation.moar liek valve amirite

You want me to download from ModDb to help assist the download count after it's been posted?
Only once :P
BTW - how much of the new content have you run into so far? Are you like, furiously masturbating right now?
This is win already. I half expected after the opening credits for it to be the trailer or RR just to fuck with us and to kill our hopes and make us wait another day, but i am happehz.
how many trials are there? because if there is anything past the scary and currently impossible trial 5 i will just quit now. also, trial 4 made me laugh until i actually died on it.
Now it says "the link appears to be broken"

WTF Tijit.
You programmed the game to recognise a save exists if and only if the thumbnail picture exists?
Get rid of the save file and not the picture and you can play on the title screen by 'continuing', and you can't transfer save files around unless you also have the picture for it.
The lurker from the past returns suddenly!
Thumbs up on this game, it has already broken me. Fuck you for making the trials harder (I don't remember the flowers) and Trial 5 scared the shit out of me, I couldn't tell if that was my heart beating or the game. Now that I have beaten the trials I think I might take a looooooong break...
P.S You have a sick sense of humor
NICE! You beat trials already?
The last was by far my favorite too, (Closely followed by the).: show
Huh, Maybe my worries about people not finding all the cool secrets weren't so necessary after all.
This will never happen if you don't fuck around with the images in the first place. However I can fix it, it was to do with the new menus I implementedIt actually happens all the time if you want to move save files to a clean directory of the game (Like if the game was just extracted)
you have 10 items to collect. Get 'em, boysI'll see what I can do :P I got 7 so far
Quoteyou have 10 items to collect. Get 'em, boysI'll see what I can do :P I got 7 so far: show
yeah, time attack is currently unbeatable. once you beat the first three bosses and take the elevator through killer cloud land, the guy gets stuck on the wall of the first room inside the castle. i was doing so well to. i think i had about 14 mins left when i got stuck.
Okay, problem. The game is just not accepting my save. It's right there on my desktop but all the files are new games.
You don't have to beat sticky right?, you just go back and it's like you've already killed it o.o

Umm what? Don't quite know what you're talking about
hey tijit, can i get a hint for this area? i can't figure this out: show
how do i change the controls?
@Tenka: It appears as if you completely skipped the SK boss. I really didn't think that would be possible :0
Um, what difficulty level? I'll give you a save
yay, one more achievement, 2 mores to goHow the fuck?: show

Can you be a bit more descriptive? I have no idea what you're talking about...
they say global button= then a number...http://www.cambiaresearch.com/c4/702b8cd1-e5b0-42e6-83ac-25f0306e3e25/Javascript-Char-Codes-Key-Codes.aspx
how do i know which number is what button, and which button is which action...?
Anyway someone has to do this

hey tijit
before i waste my whole day tomorrow, i want to know if this is possible or something is broken.: show
Okay, problem. The game is just not accepting my save. It's right there on my desktop but all the files are new games.Its a silly bug in the earlier versions of the 'final' release (I don't know if the fixed version is out yet), however the solution is to first save the game in the save slot you want, then copy the save file you want into the game folder.
Spoiler tags pl0x
@Tenka: It appears as if you completely skipped the SK boss. I really didn't think that would be possible :0I think I might have skipped it also...
also I can't get past this: show
did the game bug out or I'm doing something wrong?
hey tijit and hey to all,
i registered me on this forum to say that this game you have created is a absolute masterpiece! i played the beta 3 times before and yesterday the final version and it was awesome. the changes from the beta to the final version are great and i had a lot of fun.
but it was not only me who had fun, i broadcasted the game on jtv in front of about 350 people and all liked it too. i think many of them downloaded the final version too. it was not a 100% run but i got 4 items. i think in the next days im gonna try a 100% run.
again, i really want to thank you and your team for the hard work you put onto this game. like i said. its a masterpiece in my opinion. thank you for creating this game!
i archived my live run on youtube. i hope you dont think its cheap advertisement. just want to share my run and emotions with you. of course i made live commentary on it, too.
http://www.youtube.com/user/jtvmichael2010#grid/user/4B6215AA497D9187
again tijit. thanks for making such a great game!
tijit before i waste a week, is there an item here?
Has GladOS been changed at all since the beta?the fight sure changed, but the graphics didn't
Okay, I have no idea where the rest of the secrets are. I have the Green Potion, Blue Potion, Missile, Cake, Trials Trophy and the Rupee.
The game is kinda disheartening me to actually go out and find them since every time I go to check a place and find nothing I have to go all the way through the path and beat the boss all over again just to get back to the beginning. How many other secrets are there?
Also some confirmation, Pacman blocking the way to that other secret (from the beta) was intentional right?
Yes. This and the area that used to be the right of the wrecking worth both easier to find than going the way I intended for you to go, so they were both either moved or removed. There are TEN secret items in total, plus one room which displays all the items you currently have. (Although you can just look in your folder called "achievements")
One of the secret items is acquired by completing the game in time trial mode. The other three are probably the three that are both the hardest to locate and hardest to complete. Since some people have already found them, I don't so much giving out hints: There's one on the left path, one on the right path, and one on the path between reaper and SK bosses.
There's only one item in the tower/pokemon path (blue potion) because it's not only the shortest path, but also anything I tried to hide there was way too obvious to find. A solution to this of course would be to have added another area - but I wanted to get this game released.

Ah, thanks for the hints. I just discovered a way into that unreachable area past the falling wrecking ball, it involves a glitch you can use at the save point in the room that looks like the first screen to IWBTG. Jumping up to the next screen sometimes puts you at the bottom of the screen you jumped from, if you do this just right you can get ahead of the bouncing wrecking ball. Although I assume this was partly intentional because of what was in the unreachable room.
Guess I will try to find these other secrets (I already know where the achievements room is, but I fear the item that can be found past the Reaper).
how did you get the feathers?They also are secret items, just a lot harder to find than the rest, well except the 5th item, which is insanely hard to find unless you play a certain game which still didn't help much :o neway, don't wanna spoil anything so just don't give up :P
Yeah, but you sorta can't exit the area unless you beat the 5th trial. Thus, my complaining had begun...
IMPORTANT EDIT, PLEASE READ TIJIT:: show
I love the area with the bats, but please tell me before I continue- is there a secret area at the end? I've tried four or five times and the last bat always bumps me into a spike.
Hmm, anyone know if the special bosses give a time bonus in time attack or just the main ones?

How many secret items and bosses are there, so I know when to stop.
Nope. Three starting paths, devil boss, and Sticky Keys. There are two secret bosses that I've found, so that makes seven bosses altogether.How many secret items and bosses are there, so I know when to stop.
He said there are 10 secret items, and I'm assuming there're 3 bosses not including the final one.

As far as I can tell, only two people have found the eversion area.EVERSION?
The donkey kong area, I'm *assuming* is trials, coz that has DK music in it. Other than that I have no idea what they're talking about.

Where would that be?
I'm not talking about the Trials.
I didn't know what the section was that I missed because I didn't get there.
It's the section with the blue blocks and 1234 and stuff.
Also, the almighty donut was easy lol.
I may sound weird for saying this, but it is.
Once I found out you can hold "z" and constantly fire, all I had to do was use my Touhou skills.
I play Touhou on lunatic mode, so the boss probably isn't easy, though. :P
The "1234" area has nothing to do with donkey kong.. the music is from ape escape. The tiles are a mixture from destruction II and IWBTG. The chase at the end everything is from WBIII.So how do I get to this area? If it's a secret area, you don't have to tell me, but I saw earlier that you said that was a required path:
hey tijit, can i get a hint for this area? i can't figure this out: show
Can you tell me how to get there?
@Tenka: It appears as if you completely skipped the SK boss. I really didn't think that would be possible :0
Um, what difficulty level? I'll give you a save

*EDIT* I saw "SK" and must have read it as "DK" thinking it was donkey kong.
yeah, about 80% done in 40 minutes, that's good :DThanks!

I forgot to mention that I beat the devil boss, but he takes a while to die, so I ran out of time.
I was screaming so hard lol.
Then, it teleported me to the next screen with six minutes left.
I lol'd so fucking hard.
especially for those people who haven't played Eversion :PYeah, and thanks for putting it in the credit. I was really curious about these scary hands :D
On a lighter note, what's the music for the ending credits? It's really... congratulatory!

Yeah, in that boss you can also die after killing him and you'll go to the next room anyway. I coded it that way coz that's how it was with mecha-birdo.
@Flairina: Coz people rebind their controls I made it so you have to press your shoot key to everse, not X. It was a little too obscure, especially for those people who haven't played Eversion :P

So I seem to have a messed up save. I saved my game in the Mario level, got killed by the piranha plant, and then I start on the title screen. If I choose to continue my game I fall from the top of the title screen and die. I have no idea what's going on. The other save file works fine.Fuck, that's what happened to me too.

No, it's on the path between reaper and SK bosses.

I just went through it, found no eversion area unfortunately and just found the mecha spahgettio thingy like I knew I would.
You must have hidden it pretty well because I thoroughly searched every nook and cranny after the reaper and found nothing but more impalement on spikes.
Is there any actual indication of the everse spot? I was spamming z constantly after beating the reaper and found absolutely nothing. Does the background change or blur in a certain spot or something?
I've been able to find it without any hints so trust me, it's not that well hidden.But you're a god.
29 minutes 41 secondsDamn, that's 4 minutes faster than me. I'll wait to have my computer so I can record my next run and try to beat this, if I can :o
I'm just perseverant. :P Beside, I'm nowhere near these guys : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnllGJy7lSk and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTEealbXCYw :oQuote29 minutes 41 secondsDamn, that's 4 minutes faster than me.

What hint? That it's in between the reaper and SK somewhere?
Just to make sure, the fifth secret item is in the left path, right?
Are you sure the everison point is in the mario area?Uh, ew.
because I raped every corner of every screen!
so just tell me what screen it is on plz.

@emm see: Nah, my time had more than 10 minutes left. I'll probably upload a video of that at some point.. we can all collab on points that could be done faster :P
(note: I'm using a shitload of level design exploits to my advantage - including skipping the sticky keys fight, which will eventually be patched when the "final" version of time attack mode is out.. but while it's there I might as well take advantage of it)
@flairina: grats. How many more items do you have to go?
FINALLY. I FOUND THE FREAKIN EVERSION AREA. AFTER MY SAVES MESSED UP. TWICE!!! >:( Now to beat it...

Woo! Thank you, Flairina! For some reason, that last post gave me a great idea and now i think i know where the last feather is!!!
Now to get past the mind games and the traps >.<
This is gonna be difficult...
@ewemax: mayyybe....
Also five people confirmed with me that they have all secret items. Prizes are:
-Beta build of "I wanna Time Travel"
-Beta build of "Trials"
-Playtesting rights for future projects
There's one more slot open, then prizes are closed and will be distributed soon after. (note jeed-unit will probably get something extra for being the first)
Thanks for everyone in the community for bug reporting before the major release on moddb ;>
