A sample of Chapter 3 from Another Planet.
Glowing Goo!
Feel free to use it in your mods, but give me credit as a co-author.
Technical details: it's using an additive shadow with a cool texture on it. This means it lights up walls, spikes, the "this-way-to-the-pipe-bouncing-arrow", et cetera.
There is 1 screenshot.

YAY someone finally uses the whole song!
Just a couple suggestions: The additive shadows make the square outline of the glowing Goo Balls obvious. I've seen this before in the real game, too, and it's annoying. Just making the alpha around the edges fade out isn't enough; you have to change the color to black, then fade the alpha out, since the adding-alpha "shadow" causes the color of the pixels to still show. And the blue Goo Balls have no use, except for getting sucked into the pipe at the end, so you shouldn't be able to select/drag them.
Other than that, very cool.

Which one? The lights or the goos?
And I'm working on fixing that bug. Better graphics coming.
(And the bluish goo balls can light stuff up, too)

Hey, I'm back
Just decided that I hadn't played WoG in ages, and decided to move it to my mac. Installed this map, and it's pretty good. I like how you can light up stuff with the goos, but don't like the visual box effect (like MOM4Evr said). Maybe you could shrink the lightstreaks so that they don't reach the square image border of the goo?

I've been working on that, I'm just going to make the box bigger.
And glad to hear you like the level. Feel free to use the Goo Balls if you want.

Taco, you mean AP not AB right? Sorry but I've been using one of your songs... I didn't know that it's your's!!! Anyway I would like to get from you permission but how? I need to pay something? How? We can't really contact each other (You know)... I've used music in the Wiki-world's DEMO level but as far as I know any other musics are not good for that level... If you can check by yourself... Only I donnow how (I know it's don't know not donnow( I'm too lazy to write that...( I'm just messing about by writing - "donnow"
)))! So whats the deal... Anyway - why don't you let others use your pictures, musics and other??????????
And AP, good job! I didn't know that you can make the goos, who can blow! These goos would be really good only... If you could make them be blowing a little bit more around... Do you understand what I'm talking about? And I had level idea and... Can I use your picture (Your goofans picture (If you will I'll show you one level what I want to make...
))?
And, Taco... I think you just changed little bit the music of the original level - "MOM's computer" didn't you? Because it sounds like that... Basically... You just copied and change... Is thats right?

Don't ask Taco to share music or images, he won't.
He took the full song from Kyle's web site and trimmed it differently than it was done in the game. That's the same thing I did here.
I'm not really sure what you're asking about the Goo Balls blowing...do you mean glowing? If so, then yes, in Another Planet there's going to be a Mega Glow Goo that can light up about a fourth of a whole level, but can't be dragged around. It has to stay on strands.
Feel free to use the Albino Pokey picture, but it's kind of low quality in my profile. A higher quality one is in the screenshot of the Goo Ball Library, or in the Ancient Temple level.
And thanks! I'm glad you think the level is cool.

Actually I've been talking about this level to make that glowing (Yes, I meant glowing) balls more to be glowing. I mean with that how they are glowing but the glownes is really small. So you could make them bee glowing much more around. But whatever.
I really need that music! So how can I get it?! I can try to pay for it!
Weird but I like want to be your friend!

Go to http://kylegabler.com/WorldOfGooSoundtrack/ , download the song, and make your own edit of it.
For a sound editor, I'd recommend Audacity. But whatever program you use is up to you.

The song I trimmed is called "Rain Rain Windy Windy". The trimmed file is called res/music/DeepUnderground.ogg, if you don't want to edit it yourself.

OK, I'll have a look. Hey, AP when I will make that level I'll put you as additional author because you made that image OK?
Done it! Made that level what I've been talking about. Only need to put it in goofans!
Taco, if you are here may be we can deal... I'll pay you in something way for two musics - That one what I borrowed and that what you had in chapter "The other factory" in first level, OK?

Albino, can I use the idea of glow for goo?(I know that this doesn´t have any law or copyright protection, I only ask to don´t make you mad)

Of course, just give me credit in some way.
It doesn't have to be as a co-author, just put something on the addin page on the site that says "Inspired by the level The Dark Maze" and it will be fine.

I can tell you that maybe this will be the first one eyed goo ball that explode with 1000 of radius
Thanks albino!

How on earth did you make them glow?
Because writing signatures is too mainstream
Mon, 05/14/2012 - 15:04
can i use your idea too? if only anyone tells me how to make them glow
i was thinking of it before but did not realize that its possible

Certainly! Feel free to copy the /res/balls/glow/ folder from this mod and use it if you want.
These Goo Balls use a feature that was only used once in the original game: instead of subtracting the shadow image from the stuff behind it, you can make it add instead. So instead of darkening it, it makes it lighter. Try it in Red Carpet: if you hold the Albino Goo Balls against a dark wall, there's a tiny glow around them.
So for these Goo balls, I just drew a glow image fading out to nothing at the edges, set it as the shadow, and made it add. Then any images behind it, eg the walls, would glow with that image.

Umm.... Another question - how did you make the darkness? and is it possible to have only some spots in a level dark, not the whole level?

Wherever you want darkness, add a black background and black walls. Everywhere else, normal images.

I only tried it out now, and it does not look as good as this labyrinth. How dark do the walls have to be?

I just used pure black, with the usefulblacksquare image. You could also set the color on them to 0 0 0, a la Beauty and the Tentacle.

Oh! great! I got it! By the way, you have been away, haven't you? it seems like you only came back now.
EDIT
Oh and... can you tell me how to make the shadow in separate states? It looks like it will always glow, even when not attached.

I have been away, but I'm back for the rest of the summer now.
Unfortunately, you can't do that. The shadow can't change. Using the "old method" (which has the opposite effect - it glows when nothing is in the way) you can, but it looks really ugly.
