"Quake Master" Skins for LockJaw

Thread in 'Discussion' started by Rich Nagel, 4 Jan 2008.

  1. And yet another couple of skins for your LockJaw gameplay enjoyment.


    Inspiration for these skins initally came from "Quake Tetris" (mentioned over in this thread -> http://www.tetrisconcept.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=510 ). For a little more explaination of why I had the idea for these rather obscure skins (and strange choice of background music), a small quote directly from the included readme:


    Code:
    The skins feature a new background image created using a screenshot from id
    Software's "Quake" game for the PC (with pit borders created using graphics
    from Triosoft's "Texmaster" Tetris clone game for the PC), two types of Tetris
    "guideline" block images created from Arika's "Tetris The Grand Master" coin-op
    arcade game, and color scheme. The skins also include replacement background
    music as well (the theme music from the blockbuster movie "Terminator 2",
    sequenced and recorded by me using my MIDI hardware).
    
    Although completely different, several of the background images for Triosoft's
    Texmaster always reminded me of some of the levels and textures in id
    Software's Quake, and the initial level 0 music of Texmaster always sounded
    similar to me to some of the Terminator movie music... hence the creation and
    name of these new skins, "Quake Master".
    

    Anyhow, here's yer files:
