LoL making games is kind of funny,ey?

[Starfish]

Well,
Hehehe I just started with a new project inspired by my old SpamBall-Thread I got the idea to create something new, something fresh and something really funny ^-^

Are you ready for this ladies and gentlemen?

(6.4 Mb on a new faster server!)

DivX 5.05 or later is required to view the movie!!!

NOTE: Watch movie before viewing the jpg please!
NOTE 2: Turn up the volume a bit the sounds is pretty low

Storm and OneyedMan are my Beta-Testers, the winners of the SpamBall contest are going to be in this project (2 of them would have been there even if they wouldnt have won the contest ^^)

IMPORTANT Im recruting an advanced VB-Programmer who could script a Game-Loader which has the following features!
-Three buttons
-GAME LAUNCHER BUTTON: When button 1 is clicked an exe-file shall be launched (like an atuoshell-thing but the path has to be variable!) like this:
If (ButtonIsClicked) {
Start ".../OP-Overlord/Prog.exe"
}
-MOVIE-LAUNCHER-BUTTONS: The two other buttons are basiclly the same but they have to be linked to 2 different avi files, pathes:
".../Movies/Trailer.avi"
".../Movies/End.avi"
-No graphics are needed (if you want to you may style it though ) I will put your name all over the place and give you full credit of course

I could make one myself but the prob is I dont know how to start a file that is locaded in a varibale path, if you dont understand Im simply skip the loader...

It is not 100% sure yet that I will finish the project though (rather 95% ), since I have ALOT to do ATM I dont have much time to work on it you know

Movie made with MuMa 7 Deluxe and JPG Edited with PS (Original Image made by someone else!)

Have fun, Starfish

[Starfish]

hehehe I've already got an explosive storyline lol

btw: some of the screenshots (The RPGMaker 2000 one's) are taken from one of my other RPG's...OP: Overlord will not be scripted in RPGMaker...I thought about it and decided to use GRAALEditor instead since it has much cooler NPC script's...if you're interested:
