It's here! The first of the Part 2 levels in my RPG: The Map of Mata Nui, for the Bionicle Paracosmos, is now online! As promised! The level isn't 100% finished, but the important stuff is there, including storyline, 2 of 3 minigames, best graphics yet in the game, music, a new weapon, and more. Details are in the first post of the topic; the download is here: Download here! (Version 2.0) Have fun! I'll leave off this blog entry with the screenshots: (Ko-Koro) (Raitu's Hut Interior) (Kiraia Ice Fish vs. Snowball Chucker) (Sanctum Temple Exterior)] (Ice Bats are on Mata Nui) (Ko-Wahi Cable Car) Others: Chogo Attack Icicle Eatery Interior Library Interior Snow Dodgeball pic 1 Snow Dodgeball pic 2 Snow Slugs in Magic Battle Room

Some Paracosmos news--first, I finally got around to updating something on the website. The reference section for the Paracosmos Kanohi has been "under construction" for a while, and recently I uploaded sketches of each and every one of the Kanohi that the Toa Olda know about and that is listed in the RPG. So why not make the guide? It's the same facts you can find if you talk to Vakama in the RPG, but here is it for easier reference sake: Paracosmos Kanohi Guide. Speaking of the RPG, good progress on Part 2: Ko-Wahi level has been made. We're hoping to get a skeletal version of Ko-Koro done and posted before Agents of Surrender is finished--the end of the epic will actually discuss some things that happen in this level, as already having happened, so there's no reason Ko-Koro can't go up soon. Not sure how soon that will be though; still got the final stages of the S&T Contest #2 to run. In the music department, with Black Six's help, looks like Part 2 will be even better than Part 1 in this category. Crossing fingers that it will work...

Bones is alive, yes! Fear not! Been very busy lately with several things for the S&T forum. One of them you all know about, the other will be announced very soon... and the third you have no clue about, but I think you S&Ters will really like it. Some updates on the Paracosmos: Mostly lately I've been trying to improve the quality of BP banners for the epics n such, so I've been trying many techniques at not only making cool titles with cool effects, but also having a mysterious feel to the banners themselves. To help that I downloaded a ton of new fonts today -- I've felt for a while my range of fonts was severely lacking. (Yes, the above banner's one of 'em, not that it's mysterious or anything. ) Problem was I never did find a font that was quite what I was looking for for a specific BP thing -- basically I was trying to find a font for the writing on the tablet that Whenua found, the one that tells him he's inside this alternate universe known as the Paracosmos. It's supposed to be a distinctive style that's a mix between complex rectangular-oriented lines and knifelike ends -- sorta chinese, but with a more aztec feel to it. I'll probably just have to draw it myself if I ever need it, I guess. I'm talking about the language of the "them" in the latest chapter of Agents of Surrender that the Turaga mention, the ones whose name starts with "Kul----". I guess their style really is distinctive because I can't find anything like what I have in mind in existence, lol. Really need to get around to the RPG part II, I know, I know... but I came up with a great idea for an epic just after the Kal Saga, and had to write it. It involves what I think is one of the coolest villains I've thought of, and it's all treated as mysteriously as I can. It was something I knew I needed to write ahead of time, because the things that are revealed in it and even only hinted at tie in closely with both the Bohrok time stories and the later Rahkshi ones... and it even ties in with "Sacrifice" -- the bonus episode that's already published. I had said a while ago that there must be something important in the middle of the Koulshra Island--well, there is, and this other story begins to delve into that. (Note, however: the Kal-era story doesn't involve the Koulshra themselves of course. A later story will return there, however. ) Also, the next epic after Agents of Surrender is about two-thirds written--I got to a point where basically I couldn't continue until I planned several other things out, and those have been done. So I'll try to get back on that and the RPG ASAP... *yell at me if I don't. * Main reason the RPG's being delayed though is Ojhilom, my brother and genius programmer, is busy until later this month. Also got a pretty cool artwork sketch that I'll put up once the Artwork contest's done. I think moving the comics to the new forum has done wonders for my artistic side--now I feel like art-for-art's sake has a fair chance again in artwork.
