Let's bring back life to the forums [:

First off, i'd like to apologize that i haven't been supportive. I feel really bad that I keep saying I'm gonna get back into the project but then desert you. The reason for this is that life has been getting in the way, and i haven't been able to make the time to get on here. It really hurts too, because in a way, we're a family. A virtual family- lol. Anyways, I'm going to try to the best of my ability to be present for everything, but for a little while, I'm going to have Cooki-Cooki be in charge. So, with that put into effect, I have a little announcement:

We've decided it'd be best to continue the project as a Banjo-Kazooie fan game, rather than our own. We need to finish what we've started, and I don't care what anyone says- WE'RE GOING TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN!

With that being said, a huge suggestion I have for the game:

I was thinking that we could be a little more creative with the game, and perhaps changing the hub world. Now, my suggestion would be a sort-of disneyland type amusement part. Jiggyland perhaps? Idk. But i think it would fit in much better with the Banjo environment and be a lot more fun to create. We could also take the whole "entrance to the world reflects the actual world" idea implemented in B-K & B-T a whole lot further with this new hub world.

For instance, the Dutchman's Domain area could be a pirate themed part of the world with roller coasters and the works. This idea for a hub would also open up a lot more challenge/mini game opportunities. An example for that would be the use of roller coasters & rides around the park. In short, these rides could hold various challenges/mini-games.

This hub would also make it easier to implement our ending credits parade idea (being that the idea for the parade was to be a sort of spoof of The Main Street Electrical Parade at Disneyland).

Give me some feedback on the idea team

The idea sound good, but the idea of a world like Jiggpolis seems to fit in my mind, cause of the fact that Gruntilda and Fester congered it up to be kinda slumish and dirty. but that's just my opinion

Maybe there could be one roller coaster that covers all areas and works like Jamjars' silos did in Banjo Tooie. It sounds like we'll need it if we're going to be making the hub world as large and creative as we're planning.

EDIT: It might be a good idea to PM everybody on the RWP to let them know we're starting production again.

I've been in pretty much the same boat as you BK-Pianist. I also feel a bit bad for falling off the internets at several occations and leaving work left to be done. In any case, even if I have time or not I still wanna be a part of this time in one way or another, so if theres anything I'm required for I'm game

Am I still part of the team?

Considering you got a thread about being fired... I would assume that you're not part of the team anymore.

Dude no one goes on.

Yeah.... I check, like, once a week or so, and there's never any news... Something on the RWP about waiting for Cooki-Cooki to return and set who's doing what... I don't know...
