I had fun parking him somewhere until he got ridiculously huge.
:lol:

What happens when it becomes larger than the map's dimension? :P

Hah, I tried that out of course. Past a certain point, it stops drawing the map and slowly fades to black. I assume I've exceeded some sort of rendering distance especially since my computer started dying trying to display all of the movements on the map at once. I had to click on the minimap to go eat the Overmind to end the game.
You ate the starcraft universe :wtfawesome:

i got annoyed b/c my baneling got too big and started jumping cliffs off the screen

It turns black, but if you zoom in, you can see him briefly:



Still, he only kills things in a small radius, it's only the image that gets big.
Also, his maximum speed is like 150ish.

I played this game the other day, like three or four times.

1. What is the hidden vault? What do the codes mean!?

2. Are you still planning on releasing a sequel?

3. I talked with some people when this was the second or third game on the list, and they say they loved it as well. You should consider actually MAKING this a katamari game... where things stick to your baneling. LOL NO IDEA IF THAT'S POSSIBLE.

1. The hatch and the numbers are a reference to one of my favorite TV shows, LOST.

2. I made this map over the summer while looking for employment after graduating from college. In July I found a job (whoop!) which kicks ass (double whoop!) but it's been keeping me busy so any map making ventures are on hold. I do still hope to come back to this and make an ambitious sequel someday tho. Hopefully one with lots of options such as single player, multiplayer co-op or multiplayer ffa. If it comes together I'll be waiting to release the sequel on the Blizzard marketplace whenever that finally comes out for something cheap like a dime or so.

3. Originally I was hoping to literally make this a Katamari game and while I could figure out how to attack one unit to another, it would always attach the unit on top of the previous units head. So instead of getting a giant ball I ended up with a growing tower spinning across the field. Went with the eating and growing idea instead afterwards :-)

Oh_Man -- whereas just "press X to get 50 health back" is pretty mindless
[2024-5-06. : 5:02 am]
Oh_Man -- because it adds anotherr level of player decision-making where u dont wanna walk too far away from the medic or u lose healing value
[2024-5-06. : 5:01 am]
Oh_Man -- initially I thought it was weird why is he still using the basic pre-EUD medic healing system, but it's actually genius

Ultraviolet -- Vrael
Vrael shouted: I almost had a heart attack just thinking about calculating all the offsets it would take to do that kind of stuff
With the modern EUD editors, I don't think they're calculating nearly as many offsets as you might imagine. Still some fancy ass work that I'm sure took a ton of effort
[2024-5-06. : 12:51 am]
Oh_Man -- definitely EUD

Vrael -- damn is that all EUD effects?
