Post by TFDS »

Derp Demon Games 2013-2014

Original topic:
https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/tehrune ... php?t=1332

The story:

On a peaceful day, a very dark and dangerous storm arrived to The Valley.
No one knew where it came from, but it was obviously not a good thing.
Everyone hid inside their homes, waiting for the storm to pass...
Suddenly, a very big and noisy lightning bolt full of dark energy hit The Great Protoon!
It got filled with dark and mysterious energy. Now The Great Protoon was not a good entity anymore and
it was creating something awful... And there he was standing, the Dark Magician. He laughed like a psychopath and shouted:
"I will take over this rotten and sickly place, in the name of The Great Darkness!"...

Soon Dark Magician started building his own kingdom, but then Rayman arrived and tried to stop him with Betilla and the Magician.
The Dark Magician commanded his Magic Minions to kidnap Rayman's friends. Rayman was too weak alone, and the Dark Magician threw him into a special prison
that is located deep beneath The Tropical island.

The Dark Magician took over the whole Valley, and now he is trying to expand his kingdom!
He must be stopped! Otherwise the Dark Magician's reign of terror will never end!


Worlds:

These are the worlds that are in the game:

---Flint Jail---
It is said that they were old catacombs built by an ancient race before the Dark Magician turned the place into a prison.
Here Rayman is also guarded by many Magic Minions.

---Tropical Isle---
A peaceful island where some Livingstones were having a nice holiday,
until Rayman came and started to beat them up.

---Flying Mountains---
Flying Mountains are located high in the sky. Two large mountains are connected to each other with a big bridge.

---Desert of Despair---
A really hot and dry place where not a single soul lives... Except for one little fella...

---Fridge of Rock---
As the name says, this place is very cold and filled with snow and icy rock monsters.

---Heart of the Storm---
A dark cloud, where Rayman must find his way through all of the lightning bolts and big drops.

---Brutal Burial Ground---
Home of the ugly undead and ghosts who don't like intruders.

---Almost Space---
Is this place in space or not? No one knows...

---Fiery Fort---
This second prison is located near the Great Volcano. Here the good Magician is being held captive.

---Technological Towers---
Towers made of wires and pure electricity that are high like mountains.

---The Great Protoon's Terror---
We are getting closer to the Dark Magician's hideout. Every plant here is dead and the ground is slowly turning into rock.

---Stronghold of the Dark---
This is the place where the Dark Magician spends his time if he is not stalking Rayman on his journey.

---Ancient rocks---
A mysterious forest, where every little rock has got their own story.

---Beyond Technology---
This is a lab that is located under Technological Towers. Illegal experiments in order to create dangerous acid are made here.

---Worlds from Rayman 1
---
All worlds from Rayman 1 return as small bonus levels. It is also possible to use these worlds in the level editor.

Looks surprisingly nice. "Surprisingly" because the logo kinda scared me but the rest looks fine-ish.

Indeed it does look quite nice, I like the Tropical Isle especially.

Though, the logo is the shittiest thing I have seen in my life. Throwing a bunch of random contrasted WordArt texts together doesn't make a neat logo.

Looks pretty good, though it still does have some way to go, the walking and swinging are bugging me for some odd reason.

Honestly, looking at the original logo (before the edit), I expected shite.
I was pleasantly surprised. Keep it up. :D

Looking OK, but that walking, argh, I don't know if it's just me, but I swear, it looks like Rayman's gliding forward.

Rayman's animations look choppy in some places, but overall this is looking like it has some serious potential. Keep it up, and great work! :D

Thanks for TFDs39 for creating this topic, but I might make a new one in the near future.

Here is a video showing the latest playable character:

Wow, what a cool concept! Seems like a pretty exciting fangame! Something about it sort of rustles my jimmies though.
