Brick  Katamari: The dark descent (Update 16/11)

This is currently a work in progress (as is the name)

The aim of this mod is again to totally push the scripting capabilities out of their comfort zone - though this time there were much harder problems to overcome than with Tetris, including a bug with the attach function!

This mod is on hold until the latest script update patch is released, as this fixes many of the bug making the mod unstable. However, most of the leg-work is done and progress should be quick when this update comes out! External tools have now been written to allow me to automatically calculate volume, centre of mass, radius, and bounding box of entities in amnesia, as well as automatically generating collision meshes for the katamari to use.

Currently the engine behind all the attachments, resizing, collision detection etc is being updated for the latest patch, and some level progress has been made.

Also i have a new youtube channel, if you were subbed to my old one (GuyNamedBob) to follow updates of this mod, i have moved to TheApjjm.

Mini Update Video (16/11/2012)
Video showing off a little HUD and what happens if you pick up an enemy.

Icon Generating Tool (10/11/2012)
Video of an icon generating tool - described more here.

Test Level Demo (03/07/2012)
The mod now has props fixed so that they attach and rotate correctly, as well as the particle effects scaled and sounds added. Additionally, the camera is adjusted based on the height of the katamari.

Rotational Attachment Update (24/06/12)
Showcasing how props are now rotated when attached to the katamari, rather than all facing the same way. Also, glowy particle effect work in progress.

Attachment Demo (20/06/12)
Still working on this, it's just been more difficult than anticipated. This video shows where the mod is up as of the date in the link. (The disappearing props thing is already fixed).

Old Trailer (01/08/11)
Spent an afternoon putting a trailer together showcasing some of the potential of this mod.

Proof of concept(31/07/11)
Very first video showing proof of concept engine at 3 different stages.
