I wrote up a level pitch that used the Manhattan bridge and a couple other, nearby buildings to contain actuators for a ‘mega trap’ to contain Stay Puft according to the first Stay Puft level we were designing.

I just had it where Egon planned ahead after 1984 in case they ever needed to catch something that large again.

I took inspiration from the Eiffel Tower episode of RGB.

Now there's an interesting tidbit. I loved that episode so that would've been cool, and a neat reference could have been placed aswell. I think we'd all be interested in hearing more of these little snippets of info from earlier designs…after the game drops into stores of course.

It was taken out after the team decided they wern't going to give you the slime tether until the library level.


This caused complications in earlier levels that were easily ignored.



Also: Can someone enlighten me as to WHAT a “Alice Frame” is?

Even though I subsconciously remembered that scene at the Library, that's still a shame… thought that was a pretty good bit for explaining how it could be used to work out physical puzzles.

just as a mention the video is up for download from 1ups site now.

It's a slightly better quality, and I can actually read the one PKE Scan entry.

I've spoiler tagged the description as some of you may not want to read it, but for those who do…

Candleabrum Crawler
Class II Vermin Imprinter
Corporeal

Candleabrum Crawlers are powered by swarming little vermin spirits who animate seemingly innocent light fixtures and turn them to sinister purpose. These spirits, primarily the imprint of an animal life-force that once existed in our physical world, take over simple objects and then force them into a rough copy of their original physical form.

The Alice frame or “All-purpose Lightweight Individual Carrying Equipment” or A.L.I.C.E is a type of Military load carrying system for soldiers.

its what proton packs are mounted too

It wasn't at the library comicon demo it was on the playtv demo of some of the stay puft level and one of the walls in the stairwell cam crashing down in front of the stairs from staypuft outside and you have to use like five slime tethers to raise it up slowly. I hope we still have to do stuff like that with the tethers in the game. and I really really hope the entire comicon library level is intact just as it was and wasn't changed because that was so awesome.

You know someone mentioned that Venkman's cyclotron doesnt rotate correctly, well if you remember from the first movie, it had that problem too.

So in my book i think that the developers got that right…

I really dont see that being an accident because it just so happens that Venkmans cyclotron is wrong in the game as it was in the movie…
