Gatanui Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 So I just played the whole thing through, and my first thought is pretty simple. You're a genius, and I love it. There's also a weird mix of English and Matoran text which doesn't work too well.Thanks, Glad you enjoyed it Taipu1. :)What do you mean by "a weird mix of English and Matoran"? are you referring to the ability to switch between the two? Was there a button that did that? My bad, must've pressed it accidentally on several occasions or something. All I remember is, the numbers above the Ta-Koro rooms were English, the tunnel labels were Matoran, and I saw both English and Matoran on the two stones in the Po-Wahi desert. But if there was a way of switching, must've done that accidentally... Also I have an "It would be cool if" type idea. In the first Bohrok-Kal animation, there was a precarious looking bridge by a lavafall. That was still Ta-Koro how it was in MNOLG 1, and its a cool setting, so could be fitted in maybe? I'm not sure if the bride you are talking about is the one I'm thinking of, but that one actually appears in MNOG II.To answer to your questions, Nuparu, I'd try to make a couple of cutscenes with intense battles and lots of Bohrok. Best would be a cutscene for each Toa and maybe one with several together. Maybe you could replicate some scenes from the comics? I would love to see the fight against the Bahrag, but maybe that's too ambitious already.You are definitely going to implement the 2002 animations into your game, aren't you?-Gata - Gata Please don't use my avatar or signature without permission, thanks!

Now that I notice, though, it's quite strange that Jaller and Takua enter Ta-Koro the same way as in MNOG, whereas when you play MNOG II, there is actually no way they could do that.The first Bohrok attack on Ta-Koro was by Kohrak, I think.-Gata - Gata Please don't use my avatar or signature without permission, thanks!

GSR Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I've only gotten the chance to play part-way (through Ga-Koro), but this is some really nice work you've done here. As others have mentioned, a little bit of polish on the script would go a long way, but from a technical standpoint you've done a really great job here. Hey: I'm not very active around BZP right now.

~garnira returns~ Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 That was truly amazing! 1. I guess that would be up to you! you could have the bohrok retreat and the po-matoran rush down the trail. 2. I suppose you could have something of a timer and if you don't get past certain scenes in enough time it will play an animation of a bohrok attacking you and blacking out. you would awaken in the last place you visited. Also you can have minigames similar to those when you defended kini nui from the rahi.3. Tahu: samurai style would work. Lewa: ninja-assasin-parkour type combat. Kopaka: Very thought out and strategized tactics. Onua: How he fights in Mnog. Gali: How she fights in Mnog. Pohatu: Kind of kick boxer like. "Copy and paste me into your sig!

Nuparu77 Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Hey everyone, I decided to include some of the next chapter with all the bug fixes so it's taking a bit longer than I originally planned to get the update out. Stay tuned though because I should be getting it out soon nonetheless.So far for new content I've finished another cutscene and added Hali to GaKoro. Working on adding a puzzle right now.

Toatapio Nuva Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I just found out that when you start a new game, you already have some events set as "have happened" if you went through them in the previous round. For example I already had Vakama's note in my backpack and the Hafu scene seemed to be marked as over. Not sure why, though. And I'm exited to see chapter 2! This is truly a great production!

munkeymunkey Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I'm impressed, and rather nostalgic. Nice work on this. If you're up for proofreading, here's a few notes from the opening scene (In Episode 10-0) I cant tell why, but these seemed worse than rahi.No apostropheand that was gate that you decended and returned in?Missing the word "the" between was and gateSpelling: decended --> descended Takyua! what about those monsters you saw?Spelling: Takyua --> Takua Also, check capitalization in several places. That's all I had time for tonight, but it's looks like a great start! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lord Of Wednesday Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 (edited) This is VERY good and something I have always wanted to see (though admittedly do not have the skills necessary to do). I did not encounter any glitches other then some minor and inconsistent spelling in some areas but other then that it is awesome, I especially love the flash movie animations, the addition of new areas, and that it seems like something that would fit. The humor is good, and I quite enjoyed Matoro causing an avalanche. Can't wait for Chapter 2. Edited April 15, 2013 by Samhain Divinator of Dreams.This Is Proud Stigma.

ARROW404 Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 (edited) I am LOVING this! A few spelling errors here and there, and the constant whirring when the characters move gets repetitive, but it's amazing otherwise! Some questions that I've been searching for answers:1. What happens between Pohatu showing up at Po-Koro and the Po-Matoran fleeing to Ga-Koro? Why and what factors forced them to flee / abandon Po-Koro? How did they escape without the swarms catching them? Where did they get the boats they use to escape? 2. What changes / obstacles / plot elements can I add to make it seem like the Bohrok are a real Threat? How can I make it feel like the player isn't just watching a little scuffle between the villages and the Bohrok, but a WAR! 3. As I begin to animate the Toa I decided that it would make their fights more realistic if I tried to define all of their fighting styles. Like Onua would be modeled after a Boxer or Wrestler, Pohatu would use Tae-kwon-do or Kick-Boxing, Tahu a Samurai due to using a single sword, Kopaka a Paladin or someone else who uses a shield.. like Captain America! Also, I would need to better define their character in a fight, like if they use strategy, humor, elemental powers, or tend to lean more on physical ability. Any thoughts on this would be helpful as well. 1. The Bohrok are at the gates and will soon get in. The Po-Matoran have no choice but to flee, and they do so. The Bohrok could care less, because all they want to do is destroy the structures. 2. Show the destruction they leave behind as we progress through the game! Maybe even put a few in the backgrounds, burning something down. 3. Tahu would rely a lot on his fire power, blasting his enemies with raw force and little regard for strategy, though not very physical. Gali would be fluid and use her opponent's strength against them, like in Aikido. Lewa would be all over them, leaping into the air and using his momentum to bring more power to his attacks. He would be more physical than most. Pohatu would fight mostly from a distance, using his Stone powers to oppose them. Kopaka would rely the most on his Mask powers, using multiple abilities to overwhelm them, or try to at least. Onua would use his Masks a lot too, likely starting off by hanging back and studying the enemies before charging in, using his masks and environment as well as his physical and elemental abilities to fight them off. In short:-Tahu uses sheer force of fire.-Gali manipulates her enemy.-Onua manipulates his environment.-Lewa is up close and personal.-Kopaka relies heavily on his masks.-Pohatu takes them out from a distance.
