I dunno about Asuka right now, she was almost going to be a new base for April at one point. I wanted to make an oriental/japanese themed stage, even if it doesn't fit into my main story arc, simply because it would be cool. So she could definitely find a place there. I do have a main story in mind, but also want to add things for replay value. So story mode isn't the only option. I was thinking back story missions where you get to play as alternate characters or enemies like Shredder.
Has the team settled on a proper name for this Open BoR?
Nah not quite, I just been calling mine TMNT mod and unofficially "
The New Tales of the TMNT" or some variation of that name.
Just a reminder to everyone we are working on TWO separate games but we are sharing assets and working on some sprite edits together for use in both mods. Also neither mods are based on the movies or the '87 animation.
Also we are not trying to remake the arcade or console games, or even emulate their gameplay. We are trying to make new games both with their own style.
TMNT MOD by BeasTie - A TMNT
'reboot' mainly based on original 1984 comic and the similar 2003 animated series, also loosely inspired by the Archie comic series and the game
TMNT Manhattan Missions (PC DOS) Which mixed cartoon, movie and comic lore together. (includes new custom storyline that introduces Krang, Bebop & Rocksteady (+ others) into the story.) Also trying to include "Mighty Mutant Animals" into the game or as a separate story/mod.


TMNT 1984 /
Archie Comics / PC-DOS
TMNT MOD by therain237 - (AFAIK) Based on the recent and continuing
IDW comic series.
TMNT IDW (2011)
I don't want to speak to much for therain327, but I've had a sneak peek at some of what he's working on, it's IDW based and it's gonna be awesome.
I just don't want to mislead anyone, because neither mods are based on the TMNT cartoon (1987) or the 90s movies that most people are familiar with. But there will definitely be things borrowed from them and all TMNT versions, paying homage to the TMNT franchise as a whole.
