Epic Hades Maneuver
on: December 19, 2009, 01:12:50 pm
This is something that's been churning around in my head for a while, but the pieces all finally came together.  Many thanks to Ransom Arceihn for his help on the GIF work. :)

Trivia: The original title of stage 4 of the final mission's command briefing was "Epic Hades Maneuver".  It stayed that way right up until just before release, because I couldn't think of a better name for it. ;)

No, this is not the Phoenix grand prize.

Nope -- as I said, standard GIF.

EDIT: If you mean what was the image created in, I dunno... you'll have to ask Ransom. :)

Ha-ha! Funny.
To consider the Earth as the only populated world in infinite space is as absurd as to assert that in an entire field of millet, only one grain will grow. - Metrodorus of Chios
I wept. Mysterious forces beyond my ken had reached into my beautiful mission and energized its pilots with inhuman bomb-firing abilities. I could only imagine the GTVA warriors giving a mighty KIAAIIIIIII shout as they worked their triggers, their biceps bulging with sinew after years of Ivan Drago-esque steroid therapy and weight training. - General Battuta

Dekker: Yeah, it was put together in Flash.

Also - I had to vectorise the node map for this project. I don't know if there's any need for it, but if someone has a use for a high-res node map it'd be a simple matter to rip it out.

I'd like to take a look at the source, if only to check out the panning grid. Did you use a camera movie clip set or a uniformed layer move?

What's the song, by the way? It's kinda catchy.

EDIT: Oh, duh. Nevermind. Forgot YTMNDs had info bars.

EDIT2: Hey wait a minute. Apparently Sol's jump node is still intact!
