* Now talking in #metagame
=Skipping this, all of it is just founder talk and whatnot.=
<%Animator> Here it is.
<&LittleViking> I've never played Super Mario Galaxy.
<~kkstrong> Literally.
<AF> Will we be able to play as Yoshi, along with Mario and Luigi?
<%Animator> http://www.onemorelevel.com/game/planet_platformer
<&LittleViking> Our game is probably going to be much worse.
<~kkstrong> but better
<%Animator> It doesn't have multiple planetary physics, but that's pretty much a summary.
<%Animator> It's pretty fun.
<AF> Hmm, I still prefer the idea of an interplanetary scorched earth.
<AF> But hey, I'm just one cog in the machine, I guess.
<AF> Bed time, anyway.
* AF (AF@wpe-BE6DD566.ptld.qwest.net) Quit (Quit: )
* Lenny (Lenny@LeonardWeiss.com) has joined #metagame
<~kkstrong> Heya Lenny.
<%Animator> Ohohoho, they're going beyond simple Planet physics.
<Lenny> Hey.
* Cornface (condog111@F2046F33.1FA0D7AD.323F6FA6.IP) has joined #metagame
<Lenny> We have an idea now?
* Cornface (condog111@F2046F33.1FA0D7AD.323F6FA6.IP) has left #metagame

<~kkstrong> Partially
<Cornface> here i am!
<%Animator> Once can only hope that there would be a planetary-scale boss.
<%Animator> That would be awesome.
<Cornface> Actually
<%Animator> And then it turns into a robot.
<%Animator> Final boss.
* %Animator dreams.
<Cornface> I have plans for a planet sized robot boss
<%Animator> :D :D :D
<Cornface> The Planet Eater
<%Animator> It will be an honor spriting thi-
<%Animator> Unicron?
<Cornface> what? no. nononon. no of course not. no
<%Animator> Good.
<Cornface> I'll upload the sketchs soon.
<%Animator> But we shouldn't be getting into final bosses yet.
<Lenny> No no.
<%Animator> You're making a brigde without a blue-print.
<Cornface> Why the fuck not? Bosses are the best part!
<%Animator> ...
<Cornface> I'm fucking kidding.
<%Animator> They are the best part.
<%Animator> And you always leave the best for last.
<Cornface> I know.
<Cornface> I'm sorry i lied.
<%Animator> We could use the Scortched Earth as a tutorial.
<Cornface> Have we discussed if this will be a passive game like N, or if we will have weapons and stuff?
<%Animator> No.
<%Animator> I blame Geti for that.
<%Animator> I'm all for enthusiam, but he's pushing for things way to complicated without addressing the minor (yet important) details.
<%Animator> And especially the -beginning- minor (yet important) details.
<Cornface> Like what?
<Cornface> And why does kk have ops?
<~kkstrong> Like physics heavy or not?
<~kkstrong> becuase kk parked this channel :D
<%Animator> How the game will be? Genre? Health? Player design?
<%Animator> He's also working in angles way too complex. I should pull up his button combo sheet he made.
<Cornface> Oh that.
<%Animator> It's like reading a Brawl cheat code.
<Cornface> YWe only need four buttons.
<Cornface> Jump, left, right, suicide.
<%Animator> I know.
<%Animator> And down. To open doors and misc. (IF THERE IS? MINOR IMPORTANT DETAIL ALERT!)
<Cornface> Yeah.
<%Animator> It's the little things in life that seem to be the most neccessary. This applies to games.
<%Animator> Is our character a robot or human?
<Cornface> Robot!
<Lenny> Cyborg!
<Cornface> Or a- yeah!
<Cornface> I was going to say that..
<Lenny> You know they're the most awesome. :D
<%Animator> That's what you think. It needs the approval of the team.
<Cornface> I /am/ the team.
<Lenny> I /am/ themusic.
<Lenny> We already decided I'm music leader. :D
<%Animator> No. /We/ are the team.
<Lenny> Really, though. I talked to Pops and Bob, and we decided.
<Cornface> There is no 'i' in team. But there is an 'i' in meatpie, and 'meat' is an anagram of 'team'.
<~kkstrong> Yessssss!
<%Animator> At least we have a certain place and theme confirmed, it involves space.
<%Animator> And planets.
<Lenny> Yes.
<Lenny> And time, was it?
<%Animator> No time. Time got scraped somehow.
<Lenny> OK.
<Lenny> Now I feel out of the loop.
<Cornface> planetoids animator. god.
<%Animator> Same shit, different toilet.
<Lenny> Hahaha
<%Animator> No-no. Smaller shit, different toilet.
<Cornface> What do you guys think of the levels organisation?
<&LittleViking> What if the character was another planetoid? What if you play as Pluto trying to make your way through the galaxy to Earth so you can beg to be a planet again?
<Cornface> ahaha
<Cornface> We could call it 'the little planet that could',
<~kkstrong> LittleViking.
<~kkstrong> Kablizzy.
<~kkstrong> LittleViking.
<&LittleViking> Actually, Pluto would melt and die in that story. It would be the story of Icarus.
<%Animator> Hm. I think it's been done before.
<Lenny> There's no Blizzy.
<Lenny> Haha
<%Animator> Lemme look it up in my secret list of games.
<~kkstrong> kkstrong.
<Cornface> google?
<~kkstrong> THE END
<%Animator> Nope.
<Cornface> Thanks for that, kk.
<%Animator> I have a forbidden list of games.
<~kkstrong> :D
<Lenny> But you have it.
<Cornface> I have a list of forbidden games.
<Lenny> So it's not very forbidden.
<&LittleViking> Anyway. I like the organization you had, Condog, but we need to cut it down by a factor of ten, I think.
<%Animator> I'm their keeper.
<Lenny> But.. if they're forbidden...
<Lenny> Are they really games?
<Cornface> What do you mean, LV?
<%Animator> Yes.
<Lenny> Eh.
<%Animator> Like the disks of Hanoi, they are.
<&LittleViking> You have 500 levels. I think 50 is more reasonable.
<Lenny> Yeah
<Cornface> Ah okay.
<Lenny> If that.
<&LittleViking> Maybe even less. Depends on how big and long the levels will be. And how hard, and how throbbing.
<Cornface> That was assuming the levels were similar to N's levels.
<%Animator> A close resemblance to LV's idea is Bubble Tanks.
<Lenny> They'd be bigger than that, I think.
<%Animator> WE ARE NOT DOING N. PERIOD.
<&LittleViking> No no, very different from N. We aren't here to remake N.
<Cornface> GET OUT! NOW!
<%Animator> N is banned from here.
* LittleViking sets mode: +b N!*@*
<Cornface> :O
01<%Animator> I was going to do that.
<Cornface> I was thinking we could just remake N from the ground up, change some colours, and call it M.
<%Animator> But anyway, the idea of Pluto would be Buuble Tanks, the closest.
