2008/9 kaizo colab: revived

Kaizo

hey everyone.

I was sifting through my old harddrive, when I found an old copy of the unfinished kaizo colab from a couple years ago. If any of you remember, the project essentially died from lack of interest, and eventually an inferior version was released that lacked many of the added features the various project managers had worked on.

From what I can tell, this copy is very close to completion. The levels are all very outdated (some are not fully finished either), but with serious effort, they hack could be fully completed with a month or so's effort.

some of the additional features this version contains:
-added exgfx for every level
-2 extra levels made by raocow, with graphics by myself
-4 or 5 levels left out from the alternate version
-the begginings of a final boss
-an incomplete "final" pit level made by your's truly

If anyone would be interested in reviving this, please let me know. The work in this hack doesn't accurately represent almost anyone's current abilities. however, the nostalgia value this has for some of us is incentive alone to see this to completion.

here is the download link:

kaizopack 4-12-09.ips

thanks, and enjoy!
Thank you, thank you, yes, I was worried that the version that was released willy-nilly for the sheer sake of getting it out there would be accepted, and no more work would be done on it. If this is completed, then I can say it finally received it's deserving release.

It would be great to see this finished, so if you have the time please do whatever you can! It looks like all that was left to do was fix up a few of the levels and add in an overworld. Iceman was originally going to make a difficulty meter, but that doesn't really matter anymore.

Also, if you want to finish that pit level I started, you can have all the credit. It's super unfinished (only the first few screens actually work correctly), but It would be nice to see a final level.

Thanks a ton for the offer. Finishing this up may finally do justice to all those who contributed.
Ah. Well. Is the patch working for anyone else? It doesn't seem to for me...
Good fucking bye.

Yep, does not work on either an unheadered or headered ROM (though the internal header indicates that the original ROM used *was* headered, so that is not the problem). Also what's up with the thread title?

I'll check again, but I'm nearly sure I patched it to a clean rom. It may be that this version of the hack was corrupted (I vaguely remember that happening at some point... either way it was still usable in lunar magic). If it's not, I'll transfer everything over onto a clean rom and make a patch for that.


in regards to the thread title: I was just suprised on how dgaf people were that this still existed. just a bad joke, nothing to freak out over.

It was made during my absence, so I didn't even know it existed.

as I suspected, the file itself is corrupted, not the patch. everything is still usable if someone wanted to revive the project. Just use the "save multiple levels to file", "save FG map16", and "save BG map16" functions on lunar magic, and import the resulting files + ExGFX into an unmodified rom.

if that's too much of a hastle, and someone really does want to put effort into a revival, I'd be happy to do it myself. It would only take like 10 minutes.

also thread title was re-modified because yeah.


...hope that clears things up :P
Collab*

Thing is, we're about to start a brand new Kaizo Collaboration in conjunction with the Third Annual Kaizo Level Design Contest, and it would be silly to do two collaborations at once.

well seeing as this collab had started long before this 3rd contest it seems silly we do the kaizo contest one first. also, the kaizo contest wont be over for a while, and in that time i think we could definitely finish this project.

@ jesus - lol, thats so fun to say, anyways, if you like i could finish the pit level.

This is the key point, judging and collab-making will only be needed one month after the contest is opened.

Jewston: Must I remind you of our own Kaizo Collaboration? It fell on it's ass, and you wanted to start a new one because the old one failed. This is the exact same thing.

Don't tell me that this one is different due to actual levels being made, because that doesn't matter.

Must I remind you that this one was abandoned too? Just like ours.

might i remind you that we are trying to bring it back, and anyways, stop making stupid arguments with me, its annoying. in any case, i believe this one should definitely be finished as it is already been nearly done for a while.

Quit it unless there is something productive to say.

What do you think we should do, Ulti? The Kaizo Contest/Collaboration thread came up almost two weeks prior to this.

If you want to continue it, Jewston, then be my guest. I just don't think that we need TWO collaborations going on in the same forum, regardless of how far along one is.

Calling you a hypocrite isn't a stupid argument.

If you feel you can offer help on this, feel free to. Know where your personal priorities are. Plus, there isn't much that needs to be done on hosting/judging during the month the contest will be open.
