A ton of new fan art!

Well it's been some time since I posted fan art, mostly due to a busy schedule on my part. My apologies to all the creators of the fan art I have posted.

This time we've got a bunch of original fan art for you to feast your eyes on, make sure to check them out and send the creators some nice comments!

This way to the new fan art...

OmniGroup porting Oni to Mac OS X

Tomorrow will be a historic day, Apple will officially release Mac OS X. Even though Oni for the Macintosh is carbonised (i.e. it will run on OS X), OmniGroup still will port it "properly": Yes: the version of Oni linked from Apple's Mac OS X downloads page is a Carbon CFM application; our port is a Cocoa Mach-O application. In our tests, our port gets better frame rates than Oni for Mac OS 9. (Thanks IMG)

Sounds like Oni will be even nicer on the new OS! I discovered this news as an article at Inside Mac Games.

Cheats and hints for the PS2 gamer

Stuck in Oni on the PlayStation 2? Do not fear, cheats are here. Morph posted them on the forum, and this is what they are:

Master code:
Press Select during game play. Highlight "Help", then press L2, L1, L2, Square, Circle, Square. There is no confirmation that the code is active. The following sub codes may now be enabled. The master code must be entered before each sub code

Unlimited health:
Enable the "Master code", then press R3, L3, R3, Circle. A sound will confirm correct code entry. Enter the code again to disable its effects.

One hit kills:
Enable the "Master code", then press L3, R3, Circle, Square. A sound will confirm correct code entry. Konoko can now kill enemies with one hit. Enter the code again to disable its effects.

Character select:
Enable the "Master code", then press L2(4). A sound will confirm correct code entry. Keep pressing L2 to cycle through the characters available on the current level. Each has special moves different from Konoko, and is a remnant from the network/death match mode that was removed before the game's final release.

Tiny characters:
Enable the "Master code", then press L3, R3, Square, Circle. A sound will confirm correct code entry. Enter the code again to disable its effects.

Big characters:
Enable the "Master code", then press R3, Square, Circle, L3. A sound will confirm correct code entry. Enter the code again to disable its effects.

Big head:
Enable the "Master code", then press Start, Square, Circle, Start. A sound will confirm correct code entry. Enter the code again to disable its effects.

Fists Of Legend mode:
Enable the "Master code", then press R3, L3, Circle, Square. A sound will confirm correct code entry. Enter the code again to disable its effects. When activated, this code makes your enemies fly further when punched.

More of the same thing over at Inside PS2 Games!
