The worst part is that I actually read your profile’s about section maybe a week or two ago!

I’m sorry for that, I’ll keep this in mind the next time around, I just completely forgor about it and my brain deafults to he/him while talking about someone. :<

(I feel that being able to see someones pronouns just by clicking on thier name in a thread would be a yet another neat feature behind being able to set a real time clock from your time zone.)

Oof. And it's okAaAay! Mistakes happen! I've done it before, too.

I'm extremely happy to announce that as of writing this, I received a round number of 20 individual posters!
21 if you count the one I made myself... I made a small, tiny, absolutely subtle hint towards the one I made...

View attachment 149857

I'm extremely grateful for every person that took their time out of their day to make a silly poster for my even sillier stage up to this point.
And I will be even more grateful to see even more posters flow in as the development continues. :3
And this is also the raw concept of how the gallery would work, just all the posters in a hopefully multi room building full of pure insanity.
And the more posters there will be, the more rooms the gallery will have, and when there's going to be a lot of these rooms, then I might think about making a custom music for this area alone. :3

All this support makes me feel kinda guilty that I don't really have a lot to show yet in terms of the stage itself. :C
And about the stage, should I post the w.i.p material here, or should I go back to my ancient w.i.p thread?​

oh my god..... MY POSTER IS REAL! but seriously, good job on the work you've done for this mod

My brain forgot that I’m not on twitter and hyped my anxiety up for no reason. :C (And I’ll refer to you as she/her because they/them makes my brain lag, I just can’t wrap my head around how it should be put in a sentence. )

The funniest thing is that this map won’t even be my last BB’s oriented addon, I also plan to make a ”Baldi’s Ultimate Hang-Out Pack!” Which will contain every map from BB’s that I can shove into it. :3

And I have a really cool idea for it too, so every area will have it’s own closed off map. But there also will be the open world map which will contain every map in a huge open world type stage for you to mess around in. :D

---

And for the main updates. I started testing on implementing the vent mechanic, and apart from some technical issues with the grid that ultimately forced me to make the vent entrances off grid. It went pretty cool. :>

I even made sure that the zoom tube's speed is 1 to 1 with the speed of moving in actual BB+ Mainly because of me watching how fast player moves with the mini-map on both in SRB2 and BB+ (With reference of youtube videos because I'm not a patreon supporter. :C It's not like I will purchase this game both on steam on xbox when it fully comes out with higher price. You know that game is good when you want to buy the game 3 times only to support the creator. :3)

The vents will be used either as a extremely hard to reach, yet rewarding short-cut. Or just as a area transition.

I also added new objects, mainly the:
-Pencils and paper,
-Pay phone,
-Papers,
-Notebooks, (Not the one you collect, but the decorative ones you can find in classrooms)
-A regular sized globe and a huge one like in v1.0 of BB-classic,
-Tape player,
-The campfire,
-The almighty banana... (I had the idea to add 'nana peels as a hazard, but I couldn't make something that would be close to a working banana peel without lua, so for now it's scraped. The closest thing I got to making it work semi-similarly is by using the "force spin" sector effect.)
-The food plate

I know that might be a bit late, but do you have some more news about the Baldi enemy? Or at least a way you could lend me it? Because I actually could use this object to make working baldloons in the glitched school for the BUHOP. @dashdahog

I already made the raw layout of the regular school, glitched school and Baldi's basement. (That one is a bit more developed as you can see by the textures.)

oh god the glitchy baldi balloon monstrosities that's right-

Love me some random out of place maps in my silly sonic fan-game. And the maps will based of their classic remastered variants. Because we already have a port of classic BB's maps here. '-'

SnocSock the Hedg said:

I really can't wait to make that open world idea though, it just sounds like such a cool concept. :3 (Ignore BB's roblox RP maps...)

SnocSock the Hedg said:

Speed!

Click to expand...

I also plan on making the conveyor belts not it's own gimmick like in v1.0, (because it made some dull and tedious sections...) but instead making them a small change of pace to make regular sections more intresting. Like putting strong conveyor belts on top of platforms in a platforming section. (That's actually the only idea I have for now. :'>)

Here are all of the added decorations for now, I may add all of the items, but I'll still think about it... (I mean, I'll have to add them all to BUHOP either way so I may add them here too.)

I'll maybe add them as dynamic decoration (a.k.a they just follow you. :P) in the secret room of glitched school. And in a planned corrupted secret sections of this stage... But I'll have to think how I should implement those.

And I have 8 hours of school a day, there's no possible way I'll even be able to get burned out seeing that I have a strict dev time per day.

Thanks for that again. :D

I made some really small progress on the playable part of the stage. I added some clean shading to the first platforming section and added badniks with a risk-reward scenario. (Thanks you SRB2 mapping handbook for the enemy placement scenarios...) I feel like it doesn't make them feel as bland as they were in v1.0, which is a plus to me. :3

And the puzzle section is pretty unfinished, and I'm not sure If I won't scrap it or tweak it a bit. Just see it as a test for now. And about that, do y'all prefer having a lever that you just have to bonk to activate, or should I add some physical button too?

And I started working on the new ost for this stage. :D But this time I actually decided to take inspiration, and I feel like it's a pretty good one. So...
Ye, I used music from sonic schoolhouse as inspiration for the new ost. (Oddly ironic seeing how SS was the main inspiration for BB. :P) My plan is to follow the structure of how this song plays out, which I deeply analyzed.

The song starts off slow with no drums, which makes for a safe and calm start, after the first repeat a small bits of drum kit gets added to the music to add a bit of flavor to it, after the second repeat the drums get more audible which makes the music have a bit up-beat and fast feeling to it. After that the music restarts to it's start with some atmospheric tunes after which the loop starts. (My favorite part of this song by the way. :>)

I hope I explained it good enough, and if not then just follow the explanation with the music playing. :P So I will try to follow the structure of this song while making the main theme for this stage, and hopefully it will work out better than the v1.0 aggressive dnb sounding ahh beat. :'D But for the people that liked this version, worry not because it remnants will come back in third repeat. (The faster and up beat one.)

1. The fact it was BB's, really. You COULD make it better by, oh I dunno, adding a cafeteria?
2. Nah.
3. N/A
4. Probably the Baldi's minigames. Specifically the corn maze.

1. There already IS a cafeteria though, even an outdoor one. :C But I plan to add the t a l l variant from the classic version, and maybe have a platforming section in it due to it being vertical. (And that's one of the reasons why I added corded lamps as objects. :>) And I will add way more locations from BB's too, like the principal's office for example, also maybe more varied enviroments and of course, web-like level design, a.k.a something like this:

(Screenshot straight from my run by the way. And when I looked at the timer in-game, I realized that I gave it a bit too light of color, so now I changed it to be more accurate to the source material.)
2. I'll honestly think about it, I mean it's optional, so if you're low on rings or just want a specific route or shield then you can just do that. (And yes, I plan to add whole special pathways that either skip a bit of a level or just contain vents that zoom you across even bigger part of the stage.)
3. I'll wait for other peoples answer then. •3•
4. The funny thing is... that the corn maze is also in v1.0, but I'll probably rework how both of the minigames work so they will be less miserable like searching for buttons in a tight maze that's also dark. :P And the camping field-trips will now look like it does in v0.7 onward.
