We're definately not scrapping the old overworld, lol. I have a levels pack from mid 2001 provided by Stefan and that's what is being worked on. Obviously the levels are evolving to keep up with the times but in a simple and clean style, not these chaotic or random fillers that you might find on other worlds. The majority of the levels are being freshened up, but retaining the original layout and shape, so there's no drastic changes really.

An ex-member of staff wanted to use the VS:Conflict overworld while it was in limbo between Konidias disappearing and staff joining, but if the overworld was changed it to that extent, it wouldn't be a Graal2001 revivial

I want to play bomby island but im not STAFF on it and like I've heeard of it seems cool.

Oh yes, it was once the definition of glory. If you looked up glory in the dictionary, it automatically connected your graal client to Graal2001. I'm sure it will be stellar when they finally release the new version.

I was reading this post and I was thinking, "Why does this annoy me?"
Reason was the word "release" when was the last time I saw something released on graal that was of any importance to the player.

Let me rephrase that then... I'm sure it will be stellar when they finally excrete the new version.

Far from it. It was slightly obvious after Oasis that being sceptical about Koni's ability to create and make public a Graal project was a far position to take.

Konidias did a lot of work for Graal2001, and Graal in general. It's pretty stupid to say this with him leaving Bomy Island nowhere near finished, but I don't think it's exactly fair to judge his ability to develop entirely on a few failed projects. I think we've all failed in a few projects, it's just Konidias' hurt more because they seemed to have the potential for being great ones, and they generally had a huge hype. I still believe that Konidias is a good developer, but sometimes the motivation is just killed and I think everyone can understand that.

Well I partially don't blame him, you should ask Crono how troublesome the current is

Oh, yes, the skills he has are great, and he is a good developer. But after Oasis I gave up hoping for anything. He unfortunately came across as being a little exclusive, perhaps because he knew few people could meet his standards - but then that limits the likelihood of success unfortunately.

Nice levels above btw :P

But that can be fixed very easily...but it'll take a minute...definitely if Crono does it lol..slow poke.

Id say concentrate of the gameplay and worry about the levels 2nd.
If you ever make it to the classic list with the cliffs still looking like that ill fix it. if not done already.
