New South Wales, AustraliaGame has been fairly active recently, so thought i would make a discord server :)
Recently a member of the community released a version of Croc that had been modified to run on modern day hardware. Only the rendering and the sound have been modified, the physics and the character movement have remained untouched.
The current PC version is hard to get to work correctly on modern hardware and OBS struggles to record it, making it harder to run this game. However this new version works correctly and OBS can record it like any modern game.
If this was a big game i would suggest we make it a separate game or category, but due to how small the PC leader boards are, and it helps reduce the boundary to entry, i propose we allow runs for it on the PC leader boards. Perhaps with a note in the description of the run using this version or as a variable on the board if distinguishing versions is important.
I would like to present, the 2nd greatest meme of all time....
In order to tip the iceberg, there must be 5 penguins that all meet all of the following criteria: Coloured dark blue, have a blue puffle, and are drilling.
The fastest way of achieving this would be to create an account and simply join the room a seconds before other plays tip the iceberg. But thats no fun and is completely random or can be done by a pre-run setup. So in my run i had all the accounts join a near empty server and met all the criteria without the aid of any other player. (one attempt failed because another player came in and started drilling so i had to reset)
Of course my run is really slow because of my trash internet and i was only using 2 accounts at once when i could have been doing all 5 at once if my computer was capable of recording 5 instances of flash across my 3 monitors
I dont expect this to get a leaderboard, but i think it would be fun to :)
I'm adding IL Leaderboards to croc 2. At the moment i will be having 3 categories: any%, trophy% and allCrystals% for each level. Not 100% on how rules should be set up so i am leaving it fairly open for now. Happy for any feedback or suggestions on how the should be run :)
Although the game is for PS1, i'm assuming that PS2 is faster, and then emulator is even faster than that? However i noticed the top any% hoverless run is very close to any% and is on a japenese copy. Is there an advantage to using a japanese copy?
