Title: AUS EP [WIP] Please help!
Post by: Bored2death on August 05, 2009, 02:53:50

This is a project that's already in motion. It stands for: An Untitled Story Extension Project. Here's the details:

Spoiler: awesmoe project (click to show/hide)

A few months ago one of the members on the Matt Makes Games Forums started a topic about expanding An Untitled Story. It was made possible since the AUS source file was leaked onto the internet (I don't remember how). The topic became so popular that YoMamasMama (the admin of the forum, and the creator of AUS) created a whole subsection for topics about AUS EP.

The moderator, FinalBoss (who also happen to be the one who came up with AUS EP), gave me the job of advertising the game. And that's exactly what I'm doing now.

To join the project, I suggest you become a member of the forum and ask how you can help. They're (correction: we're) still looking for music artists, programmers, and just plain people who have good ideas.

Here's the link to the AUS EP subforum on the Matt Makes Games Forums, where you can find updates, demos, and more: http://mattmakesgames.com/forum/index.php?board=21.0

FAQs:

What is An Untitled Story?
AUS is a super-popular exploration game made by YoMamasMama (mattmakesgames.com), it has a huge map like the maps in Visit, Knytt, etc. and is similar to the type in Seiklus. It can be downloaded here:
http://gamemakergames.com/?a=view&id=6278

What exactly is An Untitled Story: Extension Project?
A game about double the size of the original AUS, because we're making a whole second map to the right of the original map. So AUS EP is pretty much a far larger version of AUS.

Why are you making An Untitled Story: Extension Project?
Well, say you had a game like Super Mario Bros, and you had the ability to make a whole bunch of levels that were a lot cooler and were extremely fun. Would you take up the chance to do so? We would, I can assure you that.

Who all is working on this project?
Well, a whole bunch of people, actually. But here's the main staff list:

Moderator:
FinalBoss

Main graphic designer:
retrogamer

Main programmers:
FinalBoss
retrogamer

Main music creator:
Kilo

Advertiser:
Arkatox

Grandman:
YMM

Where can I find a demo of AUS EP?
Demos will be posted here: http://mattmakesgames.com/forum/index.php?topic=3223.0

When is AUS EP going to be finished?
We don't have any specific release date, but it's probably not soon.

It will be an awesmoe project, but they really need help. Also, check out other YMM games, while you're there. Maybe even become a member! Please feel free to join. It will be really nice once it's finished. Hope I started this thread in the right place.

Please post your thoughts here.
Oh, and by the way, this IS NOT MADE BY YMM. He just wanted to make that known. It is made by his fans, though he is in support of it.

I really don't know what to say about this one, really.
Some things sound very good, but 3 maps?
That's so no AUS.....

I believe the three maps thing may or may not happen, and the reason for it might be because the new planned areas are HUGE, and it just wouldn't fit well in one or two maps. Feel free to help if you want, it'd be greatly appreciated.

I'm on the forum. My username is Bored2death, and I try to help with whatever I can, though I personally don't have GM pro (though I'd like to have it...). So, I advertise, come up with ideas, and, if they create a stand alone executable, beta test. You should join!
