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.

This is excellent! Reminds me of the olde-time Amiga platformers.

Remarkable indeed. The level design looks fantastic and a cool game-play from what the trailer shows. Will give it a try and rate it.

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'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 =)
