Shadows of Lylat
on: February 05, 2007, 07:14:59 am
Is featured in this months NGamer (UK nintendo mag); I'll take a piccy or something when I get home, but to quote


"Take a look at this.  No, it's not a Wii version of Star Fox, much as we wish it was.  It's an entirely unofficial game called Star Fox: Shadows of Lylat, created by members of the Star Fox community.  It's for the PC and is essentially a mod for a commercial game called Freespace 2.  Check out game-warden.com.starfox to see how it's coming along.  There are screens and videos to download, and we must say it's looking extremely impressive"


So well done :) :yes:

Sweet, more sub-exposure for FS2.

IIRC, i saw screenies of SF's ship in atmospheric flight a few years back. I'll have to see how it's looking now.

Great!  :)

The mods for Freespace bring it loads of attention.

Shame it's only the TC that seem to get noticed (yes, I am jealous) :)

I knew. ;)

Also read  "JohnnyLA"'s' comment there. Sounds like he was one of the FS2 developers. ;)

Thank goodness. That'd bring them down quite a few notches in my book, it's not like they're planning on a PC release anytime anyway. *keeps fingers crossed*

Keep up the good work, guys!!  :)

Some more exposure... of a kind.

The topic title was edited by a mod BTW.

And a comment from Dylan Cuthbert of Q-Games.

Well, as long as they don’t try to make money from it, it is “fan-art” and ok as far as I’m aware.

I think I saw a video of this on youtube a while back and it looked interesting in a hard core kind of way, but I haven’t seen any recent revisions.

Interesting comment? Hmm.. Best of luck to them - I know personally how tough it is to make a Star Fox game (having made 3 of them), and it’s not as easy as it looks.

Well its been fun. We must bow to the demands of several message board posters and stop the project because we won't be using on rails like the godly StarFox 64.

I'll agree with that last part.

Actually I find it kind of odd that there hasn't been an upsurge in SoL forum postings.

And indirectly I may have been partly responsible for this by posting a few screenies on a different website I visit. <,< >,>

I'm also surprised that the SoL forums haven't been swamped with fanboys.......

Still, thank heaven for small mercies.

And screw 'on-rails.' My fave parts of Starfox64/Lylat Wars (dependant where you live) were the all-range parts. That was more fun than the main parts of the level!

Not to mention that Starfox Command is entirely on-range (and rather ace).
