TWE Public Alpha #2?

Posted by JID on Jan. 27, 2012, 2:02 a.m.

It's been a while, but here I go talking about this piece of shit game again. Anyways, would you be interested in a 2nd Public alpha to be released for The World's End?

If you don't know what game I'm talking about, here's the most recent Battlegrounds gameplay video I uploaded almost a year ago:

WARNING: REALLY OLD AND SHITTY GAMEPLAY VID

Keep in mind that the game has changed a lot gamplay-wise, since this video. I'm still updating the graphics.

But anyways, back on topic.. I haven't released a public alpha for the game for about a year now, and it'd be pretty cool to do this again. I received some really valuable feedback for the game, last time.

Hopefully, some of you are excited right now. Even though I'm pretty sure you're not.

I started this game back in 2005, and hopefully I'll get it finished soon. Also, I'm trying to polish up the survival mode and release it with the 2nd public alpha. I think some of you will probably like the survival mode.

The full game will have:

- A 5+ hour campaign

- Over 20 acheivements

- Over 30 unlockables for Single Player and Multiplayer

- Survival mode, Team Death Match, Capture The Base, Battlegrounds and more

- Online Multiplayer(Hopefully..) <—- AG is helping me out with this with his API

- Some other shit.

JESUS CHRIST IT'S BEEN 7 FUCKING YEARS, WHY HAVEN'T I FINISHED THIS GAME ALREADY?

That's what I get for not programming a single line of code on this game for months at a time, sometimes. :(

The only things I have left to finish developing, is Campaign and Online Multiplayer, and then make the graphics better and I'll be finished making this game.

If you want, here's the link to the first public alpha that was released a year ago: CLICK HERE

So, yeah, I guess I'll release a 2nd public alpha soon, if any of you are interested.

Well I'll be durned, this game that I've been waiting on for half as long as any game by DSG, is still alive. Hurry up and put out a fresh WIP!

Yeah, I'll release it pretty soon, sometime after the V4D comp.

But, the next alpha won't contain the updated graphics. I'm updating the graphics in a separate .gmk, so don't expect any pretty graphics, when I release it.

Also, random info but, if you launch Minecraft and change the language to "Afrikaans (ZA)" The single player button will look like this:

Whoever did this deserves to die in a forest fire, but I actually facepalmed and lol'd at this, tbh.

What, the Minecraft pic? I just did it, and the button looks like that. I'm dead serious.

Go try it out yourself.

Just noticed the edit. I guess you just saw my RT on Twitter. :p

You've progressed with this way more than I have with my game, so at least you're doing better than me, right?

Anyway, I would love to play this. I really want to see what's improved since that video was uploaded.

Ahhh, good old 2012, already looking up to the past 112+ years.

Well, to be fair I've been working on this game since the beginning of time, on and off.

Not anything too drastic, just some new maps, some modified maps, modified weapon damage, perfect spawn system, new armor abilities and all that.(I actually forget all of the changes, there were tons of small changes and some moderately-sized ones, haven't done anything for this game in a few months now.)

Wat.. Maybe I'm just too sleepy to understand this comment. :p

Great. I will try to get the next alpha released soon after the V4D comp. :D

Anyways, I'm going to try to release survival mode with the next alpha. Should be pretty fun. It'll contain a variety enemies, some boss battles and zombies. :A

I'm glad people are still willing to play this game, even though I don't understand why. :p
