Robin Hood & The King's Ransom Released

[hal]

Unreal Tournament 2004 mod team Tastelike Chicken has released the first version of "Robin Hood & The King's Ransom", a 3rd person modification starring you as Robin Hood. The mod is 102.6 MB and you can find it, along with a lot more good-looking screenshots, at the TC website.

Robin Hood & the King’s Ransom is a hilarious take on of the classical Robin Hood tale. Known as the humble thief that steals from the rich to give to the poor, Robin Hood will break out of high secured dungeons, to exploring colorful outdoor levels, to swimming through huge underwater levels and finally to engaging combat with tons of boom chickens and a big bad boss!

This mod is one of the most innovative I've seen. Graham Norton does the voice effects.

Not bad, the voices are too quiet though and the maze seems to be broken for me (the red button doesn't turn the lights off).

There is also no save feature and the character graphics could do with a little work.

Very nice, i just played about 30-40 minutes of it, up until that big room with the bow and plunger thing.

Then I kept falling at the top, and quit

But put together very nicely, and I love the cel-shaded style of it all

Some of the buttons have had problems after the port from UT2003 to 2004. The button does work but you have to jump on it. (we will be releasing a patch soon).

We left a save feature out because its not too hard to get from the start of the game to the end. If we get a lot of requests for saving we will add it.

Thanks for your comments.

The Graham Norton that does the voice work in our game is not the British guy

I'm glad you like it


It might be a while before we get a patch out (I'm on dialup internet and half way across the country from the rest of the Tastelike Chicken team) I'll also try and release a zip file for Linux and Mac users.
