The state of Hooptie

[hytmal]

OK, so before we can really take this new project off the ground, Carlos says that we should give Hooptie a once-over and fix any known bugs. after that, he plans to re-touch the graphics a bit and re-release it, hopefully garnering some interest in our next project.

please post any known bugs here in this thread, and whether you'd be able to help give Hooptie the Penguin a little face-lift.

Also, the inkubator site needs some screenshots, so send them to editor@idevgames.com .

There is a midi for the in game music that I wrote that seems to have vanished from the latest binary on the Inkubator site. Here is the tune:

Also, since I wrote the stupid title music with the idea that different tracks would be enabled/disabled each loop, I quickly went back and modified it so it is a little more how it was supposed to be. That is here:

Never really turned out right. .. midi is pretty limiting anymore.

I also wrote this song:

I am in the credits for Music, but I want only credit for these three pieces. I do not want to be responsible for composition of the other music, and I do not want Ricardo Balderas, the other person listed under Music, to be responsible for my music. This is very important for me, because I'm slowly working on putting together a professional music page and I want to link to Hooptie as an example.

Thanks

So what's going on with Hooptie now-a-days?
