Here's a sneak peek at a secret project I'm working on called Manic Mansion. I can't really give anything away as there are prizes involved when finished.

Where it all begins..


The abandoned church...


Too much knowledge is a bad thing...


A good night's sleep...


Where all the naughty children go...


And for those really interested, here's a video showing of some of the game. The video is in Windows Media Video format (.wmv) and is a 50mb download. The reason it's not on YouTube is that it would severely decrease the resolution and will spoil the video.

Lol, at first I thought it said Maniac Mansion, as in the old adventure game. Would've been cool to see an FPSC fangame of that.

Anyhow, like the looks of this so far, keep it up.

Yes. I see. Very nice layout. And all the best with this game.

If needing another media service, try Nelsok.com (some bugs, yet the best output quality I can find apart from Live). Also Dropshots.com has a nice feature of being the largest output I can find, yet getting the video compresion correct takes a bit of time. Mpeg2 from memory is one of the best and a selected resolution. I think there may be info on both sites for a recommended format and size.


@Roger Wilco, yeah I know that game, funny.

@Nickydude. I would like to wish you all the best with this game and anything you do in the future. Your advice was a great help to me, and I thank you for that. See you on the other side.

Have a good 1.

Manic Mansion is on hold at the moment as I'm beta testing 3 pieces of commercial software which is taking up my time. This means my FPSCing and my music pack will be delayed a while but I'll get back to it soon as I'm done testing.
