OpenHangout

[Keeper]

The goal of this project is to use the entirety of SRB2's map space, for the better or for the worst (worst)

Thus far I have a total of roughly 6 areas, with two currently complete (the smallest ones of course)

The completed areas are as follows:

The hub:

And the tunnel:

The uncompleted areas are as follows:

Open-Plains:

The-Tunnels (not to be confused with the tunnel):

Castle-Forest:

Spaceship:

It is quite clear that the most developed of these areas is Open-Plains, the rest being quite bare-bones and generally sad.

This map also features its own collectable (Because I am highly unoriginal):

Collect them all to open the vault and obtain the treasures within (If you can find it)

That's all I have to show, Don't really want to spoil it in its entirety before release (Which will happen in 2025 at this rate)

 

[Expert]

Nice job. like what theme ur goin for

 

[Frostiikin]

Maybe you should try submitting it to this?

 

[Keeper]

While I am aware of that contest, This dumbster-fire of a map is nowhere near finished

 

[Othius]

Nah man, the more submissions the better.
You still have a full month to finish this for the contest

Again, my progress is incredibly slow. Mostly due to having to come up with ideas for the open plains area, which I am not particularly good at.

Something like hills and a river would work, also some cabins could be a pretty neat option

 

[Keeper]

Ok then, I'll do cabins

More stuff

more screenshots, added a bit to the hub and added lampposts and sidewalks to the city and some screenshots of the open plains area and sky.

Updates

First of all I added a disco to the hub area, don't quite know why but I did.


Within it I added a Snack-bar and a teleport to an area I call "The tunnel".



The tunnel has two routes, the fun route with ice and boosters, and the painful route with extreme friction and a low ceiling.


Added a mountain with a picnic on top to the green plains area.



Also added a nice fade affect to the ocean and a weird thing to the maze.



And finally, added proper Thok-barriers to the city and green plains area's

Update

I've fleshed out the medieval sky area a little, just laying some groundwork.


Added a new area, a space-ship, also nowhere near complete, just a basic outline at the moment.


And here's and updated over-view screenshot.

Castle go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Took a week break from working on Openhangout, I've resumed progress and have some progress to show.

I made a bouncy castle.




Its bouncy.

new message board is pog btw

 

[ArcadeStriker]

this idea is fascinating

Also could pepper this with a lot of mini-rooms, easter eggs or the stuff, like platforming challenges or wall climbing challenges for Knuckles...basically with that much space there's a huge amount of room for creative stuff, specially considering its a sandbox/hangout instead of a normal map (put a beeg ramp somewhere)

 

[Keeper]

ramp.

 

[someSRB2dude]
