25th APRIL 2007. NEW IMAGES UPDATE PAGE 2


Well for a while now I've been wanting to do a black and white game. And I mean black and white. This game has almost no grey scale what so ever! I think it's a really interesting effect.

At the moment I'm just playing with character designs and environments, while Ali is focussing on the story. It'll be the same team on this as umbra, again, aiming to make a short jet original and engaging project.

Lets see whatcha think!

Awesome. Love the idea of black and white, no greyscale. Creative. I thought you mentioned this somewhere else as a concept....not sure though.

Great looking but with this umbra and fall of the fireflies can you still have the time to get any of your games done?

Cherd i think that if he was, it would be for recreational game purposes only. but butters to be honest, it looks annoying, its a inovative concept, but not my style, good luck.

I like the black and white thing butters.
This is an excellent idea for WWII games. (even greys too)
Also, for games that have time travel themes or even a western.

Nice!

colourmodding is used in more advanced engines like source, as many 'g-modders' will have liked

so basically, no, he HAD to texture it

EDIT: or ask nicley to turn the colour of your moniter

I'm just wondering Butters, when you retextured the guns, did you just use filters and desaturation or did you completely redo them?

Yikes! Whata lotta replies to do.


Quote: "Great looking but with this umbra and fall of the fireflies can you still have the time to get any of your games done?"


Umbra is on delay until 10x, and FOTF may very well have been canned..

Quote: "Creative as always butters! I loved umbra and the fotff demo, but may i ask, are you on drugs?"


everything from coffee to ketamine bro, I like to think of myself as the Hunter S THompson of videogames!

Quote: "Any question regarding black and white"

Yeah, it's all textured, although I'm thinking of baking some of the lightmapping to the textures in maya, you can see the difference in quality in this technique in the gun pic. THe colt has regular texture, and the uzi has the light effects baked in.

Quote: "I'm just wondering Butters, when you retextured the guns, did you just use filters and desaturation or did you completely redo them?"


UH... desaturation, filters, redrawing bits where needed, clone stamping, and creating clever shader maps. Not too much work!

Quote: "Good to see that some of my levels and game inspire others"


Ben, I'm really not sure how to phrase this, but although you did creater the first black and white FPSC game, I am not takin influence from your work. I kinda think black and white is just another medium, and this game borrows more heavily from French films Rennaisance and Irreversable. I would also point out the lack of greyscale in my textures, having only black and white seriously gives it a more graphic novel feel.

Quote: "to all..."


Thanks for all the interest guys. I appologise if updates are slow, it takes a long time to create the new textures etc, and with a whole bunch of new guns to rig and animate, as well as a bunch of other hand held goodies, and custom biped enemies to do, I'm gonna have my work cut out for me the next few weeks!

Keep checkin back, more screens soon.

you could always make it not black and white and just give people a free Black and white monitor with the game, and the game only works on that monitor

anyways, looks good, but didnt we want colour TV's for a reason, to have colour, so it seams your going back in time, Pong anyone?

just kidding, looks awesome


Mods, its 500x100, so you cant tell me its bigger than 600x120

I believe Butter Fingers said FOTF wasn't going to be done, was because he got in a whole mess with using some other people's textures, and forgetting who's they were, and such. Or maybe that was a dream.

Guys, thankyou for all your kind comments, I will soon be starting a final FOTF thread, before I bury it. SO please do not direct questions about it in this thread. Steamassassin is right, I had some issues getting permission to use some images (royalty free but required permission to re-distribute).

Anyway, back on topic. Everything is going VERY slowly, but I'm getting there. Currently perfecting some more of the custom bipeds to feature swat teams with riot sheilds. but while I cry of the failure of that, check out the TEK 9. Various enemy poses, and player weapon... looks sick on the one handed variant. I appologise that I'm not showing my trademark tasty level design at the moment. COntrast is going to focus heavily on characters and stories, as well as everything custom (even the anims), so for a while I'll just be showing off new assets here while the story is getting finished. Thanks for checking in. please show your support, or offer comments and crit etc.

I tried making it something like "090909"

Im really looking forward to this one.
I once suggested to a publisher for coin op games about doing a B+W game, but the answer was that the punters would think the machine was broken, so it was a no to that one, I think b+w games are good though, there was a couple of B+W games for Max Payne that really gave a period setting, I also recently saw a very stylised B+W game done for an indie game as well, I may buy that one, so yea, Im looking forward to this game.
