CocoT announces SpaceWalk

[CocoT]

A little video of the (mini)-mod I've been working on in the last few days :

As you can see, it's a little puzzle game set in space (for no other reason than to have some kind of theme... hehe). Pretty fun. I'm currently working on maps, which are pretty easy to design, obviously
I'll post details soon. I suspect a download link will be available pretty soon, like in a week or so

While this looks cool, and I'm happy to see you continually coming up with creative, yet cool and simple ideas for Quake mods, I still want to see that Infrared quake mod you were working on for a while there. I hope that's not abandoned

[CocoT]

Hehe... don't worry, InfraRed is not abandonned
As a matter of fact, I worked a little bit on my site the other day and created a new section for it. I haven't uploaded it yet and, well, it's mainly a copy-paste of my QExpo booth, but it shows my intent to not drop it
SpaceWalk is a little break from TransloQuake, I needed that. If my plan is to focus on TransloQuake (read: have around 8 maps ready for a first release), I do want to come back to InfraRed afterwards. So while you'll still have to wait a little while before getting fresh news of it, InfraRed is still on tracks I, too, like the concept and I'm not ready to drop it

Well, looks like the news has spread pretty fast (I really wasn't expecting that), with Baker talking about it on QuakeOne (thanks, Baker!) and then Jube on Planetquake (thanks, Jube!), so I guess it'd be nice to post a couple of screenshots.
Don't get your hopes too high, this is again a rather simple mini-mod... nothing too fancy, hehe






Obviously the top views aren't accessible in-game. I like it better that way. It's a little harder, but you quickly get used to it. Some maps are a little tough, but if you have good memory, they can be beaten after only 4 or 5 tries (I've tested that with my wife - who, I must admit, has a pretty good sense of logic).

This looks really cool, CocoT. Where DO you find those awesome skyboxes? Those really add to the the mod. I'd like to try a few mini-mods with cool skyboxes as support like that. They're rather inspiring

[CocoT]

They all come from the Wadfather werbsite () which really has a ton of them (I always make sure to pick the Q3 ones, the other (smaller) ones are okay but do look a little less good). Otherwise, there is always the option of ripping skyboxes from Half-Life mods, but then there is the problem of tracking down artists to ask for permission, which is a bit of a drag (most skyboxes from the Wadfather are public domain for non-commercial use).
And it's true they are inspiring. Lots of variety

[Teiman]

Looking forward for it!

Seems crazy!

[CocoT]

Thanks!
