I love electric cellos!



Someone actually made a sword fighting game ~2 years ago in jME2, could be a good starting point to see where he got. (I’m encouraging you to make a light saber game, very subtly)

Parodies are protected under “fair use”.



A game would likely be violating the intellectual property rights of Lucas Film and Lucas Arts… even if it tried to be a “parody”, it’s unclear what that means in the case of games. So, it’s technically not “legal” to make a Star Wars game without licensing from Lucas.

The video made my day though. :slight_smile:



Kudos for that. :smiley:

Since George Lucas only gets the money from the merchandising rights (at least for the first movies) LucasArts is very keen on collecting money for that. Some Star Wars games developers (esp the online ones) even complain the margin gets too small because the rights eat up so much money.

Just call it Scar Wars and make it about dueling wounds :)

Edit: Sigh, someone's beaten me to it. And this is about a different SCAR

Yay. It's the classic of the classics :D. It's just needed one day to do a game like that in jme xD.

EDIT: Industrial Goth? YAY! It's very strange xD. The gothicism is dominating all the genres xD.

I think the starnges thing above all is why it is not shown as embedden youtube. I mean, ok, I’m coming from an xmas party and have “tanked” a lot of Pils and other stuff, but it shoud show as embedded youtube if you ask me.

test embedding … typically german song:

Not all youtube videos works for embedding. But more strange are those Nazism stuffs…

I hope you check the provocation and their real intention. Always funny to post such stuff. But I think I'd better go to bed.

BTW, there is a lady with a really lovely voice - a friend of mine said: “die ist wohl einmal zuviel geopfert worden” - “she’s been sacrificed (to satan) one time too much”. :smiley:



Here’s the guitar part:

I like germany bands like: Helloween, Avantasia, Gamma Ray, Edguy, Markus Grosskopf’s Bassinvaders, etc, etc…
