Jet Rex Showcase - Crash Bandicoot 2.5: Mechanical Mayhem

[@davoid96]

The warp room portal looks absolutely gorgeous! When I watch these mods I feel like a kid again having crazy dreams about new levels and pickups. This channel is truly a gem for a fans of Crash 2 and 3.

[@Aversatrix]

Yea the warp room is really nice

[@solidgent7870]

You saying that reminds me of a dream I had as a kid, of a new Crash 2 warp room and I specifically remember a portal surrounded by red hot pipes and the level was called "Bolt!" I always wondered what kind of level Bolt! would be, maybe a chase level in the "hot" area of a sewer level.

[@CrystalFissure]

This is truly out of this world. Bravo.

[@deoxysandmew2162]

Ikr?! Insane!

[@ZakRas]

That is without question, the greatest combination and reusing of ideas I've seen in Crash modding to date.

[@n.damien7416]

2D Jet-Pack Phase is really a great idea.

[@Aversatrix]

It actually plays very intuitively too. Stopping the player from going out of bounds wasnt easy tho xd

[@JaePeaS]

Bruh, the orange gem too? Goddamn these are wild and I love it.

[@Aversatrix]

Orange is too good I had to snatch it for myself

[@SuperHamachiBrother1]

This looks so cool. It's like I'm seeing a timeline where Vicarious Visions kept making original levels for the n sane trilogy lol. Hats off to you, sir.

[@donnascolorfullife2176]

@@Shredonus yea looks hella fun. Just imagining a full mod of every each level of crash 3 just as this one would be astonishing

[@MSCLeap75]

Incredible Crash level! Now this is what imo Crash is about which is that hybrid platforming action where you spin, jump, and ride a bunch of things to keep spicing things up. The 2D jetpack section reminded me of the helicopter section in the 2D volcano levels of Ntranced.

[@HunterXpro3000]

The music combining Crash 2 and Warped warp room music is fucking fantastic. 4:43

This is so mind-blowingly cool. It's amazing that you and airumu have managed to push the game this far. God-tier modding ability on display!

[@kevinjohnconduitlr1925]

The modpack it's almost ready so far, I can't wait

[@MatrixEvolution17]

this is so cool, it still blows my mind that this sort of thing is possible. Imagine a Crash version of Mario Maker

[@Aversatrix]

There is one level that felt like using a maker, because it only contains crates. I think theres some Unity/Unreal fangame thing that sort of does what you described

[@vettalancia930]

This mod is impressive! While we don't have a 3D editor, the closest thing to mario maker there is is Crash Bandicoot Back in Time, a well known fan game. I play it almost daily and create tons of levels They are not as elaborate as those 3D mods, but they definately feel like crash

[@MisteriosX23]

Crash Bandicoot Back in time is the Mario Maker of Crash Bandicoot. It already exists.

[@thelucario1988]

Probably watched this more then I should but can’t wait to see the rest of this project to be finished

[@EvilLordCanas]

This is pretty much Crash 2.5, absolutely phenomenal.

[@OPolonhes]

When I saw this I was very happy. I'm really anxious to see this game being complete. I am sure that I'll play it when it's finished.

[@emporcs5546]

This is so epic!! 😮😃 Love all of the ideas used here and the jet-ski and jet-pack being used in different ways in a Dino level!! Very, very, very unique and cool!! Awesome!! A+++ ❤

[@Rayrobi_CB]

I love that the relic times are shown before the level in their respective colors, neat little touch. Also, yay, developer relics! 🥳I'm gonna have a fun time trying to beat those, these levels look like a good challenge.

[@Aversatrix]

@@Rayrobi_CB Yea I liked working on the HUD quite a bit :) and dev times are kind of hunted so it wont be easy at all kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKHYhWSfmauDqrs

[@Rayrobi_CB]

@@Aversatrix I certainly hoped they would be tough! 😀 I really love the time trials (I got all dev times in OG Crash 3 in fact). I'll finally get to learn neutral slide spinning, plus probably a few dozen other mechanics that you guys came up with. Nice run, btw!

[@deoxysandmew2162]

So Blue Crystals are finally real. I have made them up many years back in Crash Bash for difficulty higher than Platinum Relics. Slightly inspired by Aladdin's Nasira's Revenge elusive "Blue Gems". Those were hair ripping difficult haha.

[@PhilCascio97]

I don't think we will play it anytime soon... these mods are god-tier and they require a lot of time

[@Similiclem]

So many good ideas

[@LVB]

Very beautiful and incredibly difficult. I call a such passages in CB3, with crazy adventures in races against time, in one word “Madness”. You have outdone yourself, congratulations. I would like to see someone who can complete this without making a single mistake. Maybe... Stani (CrashFan95)? I'm not sure.

[@terrygames8409]

CHALLENGE ACCEPTED

[@Aversatrix]

Thank you. Luckily the time trial times arent super strict, and there are plenty of masks. I can think of several levels with a more difficult time trial. But I'm kind of biased since I've played this level a lot. I'm curious whether and when someone beats the dev time. It's not perfect but its quite close to what I can get, I didn't really make any mistakes in it.

[@LVB]

I have a question about this mod. Is it supposed to be an edited version of Crash 3 that mixes level types and adds new content?

[@Aversatrix]

It is a Crash 2 mod, not Crash 3, but otherwise you're quite spot on - much of Crash 3 can be used even back in the Crash 2 engine, that is why we often use Crash 3 levels and obstacles. It mixes existing level types and enemies, but there are also several levels that contain new custom scenery and most levels contain custom enemies or obstacles. There are also several custom bosses and it also adds time trial and relics for all 18ish levels. Example of a custom scenery level: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5Tbq6qum7iprs0
