Hello,

here is Tube Second Edition. It's basically the same game as Tube but with much improved graphics by Marcus Losbjer.
Marcus also wrote a few nice songs for the game.
There are 9 new tracks. However they are locked. You must complete a few "challenge" tracks to unlock them all. Thanks to sh3-rg for this suggestion!
I would like to also thank JagChris for the beta-testing and LinkoVitch for helping me about an undocumented feature of U235-SE.

Have fun!

yeah!

Only played for a few minutes but it looks great!

[Jag_Slave]

About to try this out!

Glad you have taken this a bit further- I hope you continue to update it towards a more complete game.

[Jag_Slave]

Okay, I have played through each open level, and I would have to say this game is coming around great!

I would consider adding a difficulty setting for those who suck at this game (me). Maybe easy, medium, and hard are all the same "difficulty" BUT you just raise the times to beat depending on difficulty. And only allow maybe 3 unlock-ables for easy, 6 for medium, and all 10 for hard???

Also, Marcus, would you be interested in helping Storm Works with some .mod tracks? Digging the tunes man!

[LinkoVitch]

Gah, I went to bed too early! will give this a lookie over the easter break   Nice work DrTypo, keep em coming.

[Felyx]

Cool surprise as I thought you were not working on it anymore
Now the game has 2 times more levels: Thanks to both of you Dr Typo and Marcus Losbjer

Some pics:



Some new things have been implemented like pressing # touch anytime to come back to the intro screen, level selection from that same intro screen.

Would it be possible to active a toggle key for the music and pause key?

Wow its so great with  the music . Its a wipeout feeling now.
Perfect game Thx to you both !!!!!

[Marcus Losbjer]

Great to see it released, I'm very happy that DrTypo let me help him out on his project. The .mod music making is totally new to me. It's kind of fun to do but very time-consuming. When coming from a Logic/Cubase way of recording music it's very awkward to say the least. The graphic-stuff is alot easier though. @Jag_Slave: I can see what I can do, if it's for your puzzle-game I guess it's not the Techno music you want, right?

Looks great!

Yep my mistake : the link was wrongly pasted: here is the working one: http://www.mirari.fr/dyRL

Just played the game, and while I liked the first one, this SE is a BIG improvement!

Great work, guys and thanks!

[CD-i]

Great work! It looks and sounds much better now. But how to unlock the new tracks? ^^

[DrTypo]

Hello,

Marcus also made a nice "Tube" wallpaper.
Here is a shrunk down version:

You must beat a "challenge" track. The first one is BBQ, you must complete it under 1 minute 15 seconds. It will give you a code.
You can enter the code in the tilte screen, press up or down then enter the code using the num pad.

This game rocks.

Hello,

here is 2 videos made by JagChris.
The first one shows the first 9 tracks. This was a beta version, in game music wasn't yet added:


The second video from a later beta shows one of the locked track with in-game music:

[Zerosquare]

It looks (and sounds) really good ! Reminds me of Wipeout, except it's kinda "on-rails".

[K3V]

Excellent improvements! Thanks for the update.

[GT Turbo]

It Rocks !!

Well it's the first time I've actually looked at footage of the game & boy that's cool. Does it use a rotary at all? I'll hopefully get time for a blast on this next weekend in France. Work & study prevent me doing so before! Great work guys

[JagChris]

Nice video.

[Felyx]

Here the DVD box cover and CD cover based on the art from Marcus Losbjer:
First version was made by me based on the art Marcus did few days ago.
On the second one is the Marcus front art version.
Thanks to him for the nice art he did

Oups: wrong file for the second DVD cover: there is a "Beta test" sentence between the screenshots
Please find the correct one here:

Well, I must say... WOW!
My kids love this game, but I suck at it so, NO, I don't like it! hehe!

I would like to suggest one thing that has been already said: the balance effects/music.

I tried with a rotary, and I have a weird behaviour. is that expected? I mean, may I use my rotary at all?

Can't we have a few shields to use when appropriate? Some tracks burn as hell!

Also, what is this mph thing??? Aren't we Metric? :-)

Keep up the GREAT job!
