Things to Come (Checked the source code)

[Qwerty]

After checking the source, we now know two level types that are coming up. Here are their symbols:



Kinda funny how this crops up during our discussion of the pyramid level, eh? Here's the map thing:



I wonder what that bright green area is.

As for the texture types, I'll just post them all and leave it up to you to see if any haven't been featured yet:



Also, I see a couple unused heads here. Worms? Small circle?

EDIT: Sorry, didn't see the lighter parts. I see now it is X walker and diamond.



Here's some attacks, pretty much already used but posting in case I missed something:



This one isn't as useful for prediction as it is for art:



Also, among the level layouts (Black, white, and blue pictures used for the design of the levels), there is one that I haven't seen before:

Shouldn't this go into the special board? I think it already qualifies.
And this has nothing to do with the source... just unpacking the jar - whatever. Still nice find on the Pyramids. They are in the game since 6.9 though. I never check the gifs, but youre right, there are interesting things in there.
As for the "new" level layout: Just watch the opening screen...

[Qwerty]

Yeah, not really. But it is essentially close to the source. It isn't directly at the surface, anyway,

Opening screen of course...

Anyway, I'd put it in the special board, but it isn't really hacking or cheating. Just prediction. The only really useful things here would be the map and the icons for oasis and pyramid.

It is not hacking, but close I'm gonna post the rendered map if you move the thread ;-)

[Qwerty]

Hmm, tempting...

[Rabidbadger]

And if said thread is moved, I will have to buy the password. Meh. Something to use my DB for.

[Qwerty]

Yes, that is true. But then the community couldn't see it. I'd have to remove its link in my ads.

[tackew]

i knew thered be an oasis!

[ruisen2000]

I think the icon with trees in the tropics! maybe we will see coconut tree monsters XD

[Rabidbadger]

Nah. It's definately an oasis.

[Qwerty]

Heh, tree creatures that launch coconut bombs.

[Rabidbadger]

That shatter into a load of coconut fragments and globules of acidic milk?

[Qwerty]

I can actually see that, to be honest. As a mega-boss. We've had Fire and Physical, and Fire and Ice, so some Physical and Poison would be a nice two attacks.

[ganondorfchampin]

There is one new tile. Its from IS. I'm guessing it will go to the mountains. Oasis is probably not a boss stage, but it might be.

[disabled]

Oasis sounds more like a new town...

[Qwerty]

Oh that Ha55ii, taking his tiles from Irritation Stickman.

I'm thinking Pyramid is more likely to be a boss than Oasis. The only non-natural structures here are either megaboss levels, towns, or the castle gate, which is sort of an extension of the castle.

Maybe at some point, there could be an arctic/snowy region, with blizzards slowing the movements of all player characters and enemies on the field?

With the looks of things, I can clearly see the world map being one extremely long island

[Qwerty]

Heh. Long island.

That would be good if the map extended in multiple directions.

[the seaweed doctor]

I bet pyramid will be like Submarine Shrine. And this will be my last comment under this name

[Qwerty]

Didn't that guy quit? Stinking dynamic IP, getting in the way of proper bans.

I agree. 'Oasis' might just about be a new town, but underwater. But for some reason it reminds me too much of the Lake, so for now I say it's going to be a stage.

However, just because I make myself so sure of that doesn't say I'd be unhappy if it doesn't turn out to be.

[Qwerty]

I can see Oasis as a town, yeah. Or a stage, although we are running out of Town names.

[Yonder]

We still have City, Urban Jungle, Monroeville, and all that stuff. So we still have some names to go by.

Well, you never know; there might be significant landmass on either sides of the oceans. Those would be great for, say, a large tropical island to the north or south of the mainland

[ganondorfchampin]

We aren't sure if the black stuff represents water. It might just be really tall mountains.

[ruisen2000]

Hope we have a town selling level 2-4 compos

Is that a teleporter?

[Qwerty]

Nope, it's the screen on the default menu. Look at the edges.

[~Memzak~]

Heh, funny.... the prediction was right. Oasis turned out to be a stage not a town.

[Rabidbadger]

It does look like we're getting more landmarks than just castles now, though.
