Bailter Ray
Unreal Tournament 3 mod | Released Aug 13, 2009
Bailter Ray is a single player total conversion mod using Unreal Tournament 3 as a development platform. Made over 12 weeks this is the work of four people Pip Robbins, Paul Smith, Zhao Zhang and Rebecca Wong final year students in RMIT's Game Program.
Bailter Ray is a 2.5D "side scrolling" platform, adventure shooter. Set in a alternate reality where science fiction tin toys exist as living entities. The player controls a tin spaceman Captain Phoenix Valentine, an Astro-Explorer who has crashed landed onto an unknown alien planet. In order to get home the captain needs to retrieve his space ship's power supply (a wind up key) and locate his ship.
The game is a platforming playground of puzzles, enemy robots and alien plants that shoot goo and fire. In order to survive the surreal alien landscape, the player must make effective use of his suit's jumping and dodging abilities.

We have been hard at work this semester, trying to take Bailter Ray above and beyond what we accomplished in the first semester. The results? Well check them out for yourselves. We have done a huge overhaul on almost everything from the first semester. It looks better, plays better, simply it is better!
Some things to expect:
- Completely new level, with new art assets. A lot more thought went into the design of the level than the original. Better and more interesting challenges to overcome.
- Reworked mouse and keyboard controls, improved aiming and turning.
- Complete rework of the game pad support, just works so much better than before. Now just as easy to use a controller as mouse and keyboard.
- Added a introductory tutorial with voice overs.
- New objectives and reward system. Unlock the bonus level by finding all the collectibles.
- Reworked bot AI, much more responsive and interesting then before.
- 2 difficulty settings, easy and hard.
- Power ups! health, lives, faster firing, and quicker dodge.
- Much much more!
We are very happy with how Bailter Ray is progressing. Download and play the game - Let us know what you think!

Remarkable! You guys are great!
An outstanding job and I agree - thank you for sharing code for us to have an idea of what it took to make this! I really appreciate you gameplay thinking and imagination to make this game!
Yo,
played version 2.1. Well done, but how many collectibles are there to find? I tried to find all of them but I only can get 12, in the speedrun are also only 12, but the game says I must find 13 to get to the bonus level. A bug maybe? But I guess the bonus level is nothing but the old 1.0 version of the game.
Good game anyhow, though a small outro instead of an Game-Over-Screen at the end would be better.
Thanks G.A.R,
We originally added 13 collectibles, but during a presentation we disabled the 13th. Which was also when we captured the speed run video.
Go back after you get the ray gun, look for something only the ray gun can destroy :)
Thanks for the feedback G.A.R.
You are correct about there being only 12 collectibles in the speedrun clip, but in the game there is one more making it 13, you have to back track after you pick up the RAYGUN... it's hidden... (and yes the bonus level is the prototype level made earlier this year)
i have a problem. it lags A LOT. For some reason, every 2 to 3 or 4 seconds i get a drop in fps, then back to 60. It's extremely annoying when im trying to jump to another platform and it lags. I played the last release with no problems at all. I was wondering if it's me or the game. Anyways thanks for the great mod, you did a good job.
Hi johnpinky7,
This version certainly has more meshes and textures on screen...our team developed this mod on average specification laptops, and have had no lag problems...you could try lowing resolution and turn off dynamic shadows and motion blur etc.
Thanks for the feedback though (we 'll try test it out on a few different systems). Hope you get it running smooth enough to play.
I'm sorry but its not a low framerate, but a lot of skipping and chopping. I get the same results on low quality. No matter what, ever 2 to 3 seconds I get some choppiness. I'm very confused and I would really like to play this very well done mod =)
Strange. I think it's likely to be a issue with your computer.
Here are some general tips I can recommend:
1) Updated your video card to the latest driver.
2) Make sure you disable any programs which are not required.
3) De-fragment your hard drive.
Sorry I can't be more helpful.
Thanks for trying to help, but the problem persists. I got the 2.1 version installed and the choppiness went down, but it's not completely gone. I'm almost positive it's not my computer, since I can run all next gen games including crysis and the highest settings in 1600x900 res on an hd monitor with my fps never below 50. Even unreal 3 itself. It is playable and I will just have to deal with it, but thanks for the interesting and awesome mod! It brings back memory from when I used to play a lot of adventure sidescroller games =)
Looks fantastic team!
I'm checking this out right now.
Thanks for releasing the source :)
I look forward to your future endeavors.
