Does this mean I'm still on the mod? My dropbox disappeared one day.

Hello everybody! It is once again time for a PR update, however, this one is a bigger update! We have a few things shown here in this update. However, this update does not show people playing together; it shows a touch of the features in PR. I will not state any of the features, because I would rather have you guys guess them, and what they do. This has been an exciting 8 months of work here, so enjoy. Please note that some of these features are only in the Beta or Alpha stage, so some may change accordingly.



Doubled Layered X - Hunt Mode - Level by Uil

var pb_ad_url = ads.proboards.com/ad.pl?as=300x250&ap=BT...15&cb=+Math.random() ; document.write('');

Keep on rolling,

~The PR Team

Hmmm, looks like there could be a race mode- that starting cage plus the speedometer.

I can just see the responses about the various not-quite-finished things. Nice video, though.

There's already a level by Technostick called X marks the spot.

@Matan, I had a different name for it but everyone kept saying X Marks The Spot sounds better guess you'll just have to use the original name guys.

Matan, I think Andrew Sears created the level X Marks the Spot not Technostick.
Awesome Hint:

Since the Awesome Time/Score is secret, you will have to beat it in order to find out what it is. Just practice every day, and be ready to keep pressing the 'Restart' button...A LOT!

Probably because Technostick made a video on it, hence I remembered that. Thanks for the fix.

What the heck is that tweaky thing in the bottom right corner. It doesn't seem...right... I think it needs work


And I noticed some things that look like saturn as well, some kind of pickup?




Overall I want to emphasize something for you guys (and anyone making a mod). If you are going to release previews, do it right. Show only things that are close to done. The last thing you want in your preview is bugs, and things that obviously need work. If it doesn't look done, don't put it in the preview. The same goes for demo's, only even more so. If it isn't release quality don't put it in.

Take your cues from PQ. I am sure the whole mod doesn't look as polished and awesome as that last video they released (yet), but they don't let you know that, they only show you what is worthy of being seen.


This particular preview isn't bad, nothing is too obviously unfinished (although it could all look better), but is that REALLY the best level you could show us? It looks sorta fun, but still. If you don't have anything to put in a preview that seems really cool, don't make a preview yet.

I had forgotten about that level, otherwise I would have asked them to change it, lol.

@Don I really don't think they want to make it look like PQ, I think they want it to have its own feel WITH features as good as PQ. Get where I am coming from?

He means match the quality of PQ, not mimic its style

I just uploaded a video focusing on our new collision system for multiplayer. Check it out here:

var pb_ad_url = ads.proboards.com/ad.pl?as=300x250&ap=BT...15&cb=+Math.random() ; document.write('');

This video is set in MBG because I broke PR whilst fixing the MP protocol, but I will stuff the new version in soon... (sorry pr staff)

Intense, too amazing.

But how come the other marble is darker? Is it just the skin itself or is it a bug?

Very impressive. I can tell that there are still a lot of kinks and problems to work out, but congrats on making it this far! Keep the good work up.

Will PR have a battle mode specifically dedicated to collision with the marbles?

I'm going to disregard all the posts saying this was impossible .

This could make may for very fidgety co-op levels where you need at least 2 people playing to finish it. e.g. having to jump off someone else to get to a normally un-accessible part of the level.

Eh, I don't know about marbles jumping on each other because as many people have said before MBG's engine is too outdated.
