Exception Beta v.0.95

THE FOLLOWING RESOURCES ARE NEEDED FOR THIS TO WORK!:

Exception Beta Part 2 (Second part of the mappack, workshop file)

Serious Sam 2 Sounds Resource Pack[www.dropbox.com]
(Extract this .gro file to Content/SeriousSam3. The original SS2 sounds pack is no longer on workshop so you'll have to get it this way.)

Mischievous's NPCs (Workshop file)

There is a demo of the complete version available! (It's also updated with most up to date stuff, including an ending boss fight):

====================================


Enter the mind of Serious Sam himself in this exceptional mappack inspired by
Inception and Psychonauts!

Mental has hacked into Netricsa using technology to manipulate a person's dreams, trapping Sam inside his own mind and militarizing his mind against himself. To wake up, Sam must perform an Exception, and fix Netricsa by convincing her to get back to her senses.

This near final beta version of the mappack includes four playable levels, Dream Collapses, Madness Begins, The City of the End and The Peak of Insanity, each being set in surrealistic landscapes, either made of checkerboard cubes and various odd geometrical shapes, or a gigantic bathroom with a warzone of soldiers, giant machine guns mounted on carrots, destroyed helicopters and tanks, a burning gigantic cityscape, or a mental apocalypse! All levels are fully playable to completion with the exception of Peak of Insanity, which is still missing a final boss fight and some additions.

Recommended to be played on Normal difficulty unless you're an experienced Sam player.

===========================================================

Recently updated with a small bugfix update with following changes:

- Added subtitles for Dream Collapses and Madness Begins (for most things, anyway)
- Fixed players not being teleported after the intro cutscene in Dream Collapses
- Fixed some jump skips in Madness Begins
- Added new Sam voicelines for City of the End.
- Hotfix no longer needed.

CHANGELOG FROM VERSION 0.50 (PREVIOUS) TO 0.95:

- Added 2 new levels, The City of the End and The Peak of Insanity
- Added a new introduction scene to Dream Collapses
- Added a new unlockable credits level
- Added new player models for characters that are featured throughout the levels
- Added transitions between certain levels.
- Fixed a bug in Madness Begins where enemies would remain alive at the bottom of the room (added an abyss killer).

STUFF STILL MISSING FROM THIS RELEASE:

- A final battle
- Some tweaks and bugfixes to the latter 2 levels - they are effectively in beta
- Subtitles for Dream Collapses and Madness Begins (will be added for the final release).
- Updated Sephiroth model (still uses the old one but probably replaced by SFL's "Sexyroth").
- Additional multiplayer enemies (if playing in co-op, using higher enemy strenght settings is recommended)
