Log of chat with the Creators
« on: August 23, 2003, 06:18:33 am »

There has just been an IRC chat session with Fred Ford, Paul Reiche,
and Erol Otus. This time, it was only with the core uqm developers, but you can all read what we've talked about.
The raw log can be found at http://uqm.stack.nl/files/chat/tfbchat-20030822-raw.
A more readable version is at http://uqm.stack.nl/files/chat/tfbchat-20030822-formatted.

Now, a 0.4 release was mentioned in there. As much as I hate to be the one doing the "when does the next release come out" but, is there a new compile coming soon? Hu, hu?

Also, I'm wondering which bomberman they're playing so much lately? Personally I found the NeoGeo version is the best.

Also, I wonder why they think only a Spathi would be insane to enter the bomberman arena.

Better yet, never enter a Bomberman arena with a Shofixti. >:)

The Mad Bomber is gonna bomb at midnight, yeeeeah! Grin

Didn't they allude to, in the the interview, the Super Nintendo Bomberman?

I'm reminded of Bomberman for the SEGA Saturn. The one that included, as alternate colors, mascots from different Hudson Soft (creators of the series) games. There are currently several official online versions of the game, including one for your PC. </plug>

Hmm... Shofixti Spoilersports... that could be non-consequential to a Pkunk Player! Tongue

I wanna know what that whole thing was with BAD_CAPTAIN_YOFFS ... a rival captain in another Precursor starship, perhaps? Oooh!

You always talk about the sound remix but I never saw the remix pack!( Only 3, quasi space, ilwrath, shofixi, and slylandro) Where and when you can get the remix pack?

Not to be a spoiler or anything, but it was probably a good deal more mundane...

GOOD_GUY and BAD_GUY were the flags indicating bottom and top of the status screen, according to them in that interview.

"BAD_CAPTAIN_YOFFS" was probably the Y-coordinate offset for the captain display for the top player.

It is still being composed. But it's status looks very good. Where - I assume the pack will be put into sourceforge downloads.
