pixelcorps · Post by **pixelcorps** » Thu May 04, 2006 4:20 am

I wonder if any of you nice people are willing to help me....

I want you to record an audio file.. of yourself, or anyone else you know..

If youre willing to play along I need the following, from you, your friends, and anyone else willing to help!

I want you to record yourself, your mother,classmates, your uncle, girlfriend, your kids, a bunch of drunken friends in a group,anything! whatever possible! saying :

"OOKYBLOCKS!" followed by a stupid monkey noise... if you like, you can record 'ookyblocks' and the monkey noise seperately, as long as you can give me the 2 sounds, i'll be happy..

yes, you heard me..

here's an example but the guy is saying "monkey records", followed by a stupid monkey noise.

it's a tiny mp3 file..

http://s37.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0CH5 ... HLWCS772EX

just use this as a point of reference, but just replace 'monkey records' with 'ookyblocks!'

if anyone can help, i'd be really grateful.. if it sounds good/funny enough, i'll be using a selection of them in my game...please send as many as possible, by as many different people as possible..

I don't have much hope of many people coming through with this, but this is my first attempt at getting some entries.. at the end, i'll pick the best ones (I need 12 in all for the game)

please send high quality mp3's, WAVS or AIF's to 8bitpixelrobotATgmail.com

c'mon guys get stupid and help a one man development studio out!!

thanks all....

If I had a microphone I'd be tempted to do one in the style of the Ibara commentary...

well, if anyone can help in whatever way possible, i'd be very grateful.. i guess i'll be getting lots of male voice files, as is the way of gaming forums, ideally i'd like some from girls / kids too..

I know it's a strange request, but the game is gonna be rather silly too

What's the sample for?

Gameover? Ship blowing up?

If it's anything like Gridrunner++ you'll need some kinda movie quote.

As nearly the only girl here, I guess I ought to help out

but I don't know if I can do the monkey noise without laughing...

Hmm, the yousendit link you posted is telling me it's "invalid"...

If you can get the example sample thingy back up, I'll give a listen, I'm half-tempted to try this, don't know if it's what you're looking for though...

here's the only contribution i've had so far. it's not very clear, but has the right idea in terms of stupidity....

http://www.spacerobe.com/vamecum/okeybollocks.wav

ideally i'd like it a little clearer and less incomprehensible than this one..

in all seriousness, i'm getting a really lousy response from everywhere i've asked so far, so if you can help, i'd be really really grateful...

please, please help out!!

laughing is good!!

Okeee...

Exactly how much monkey do you want, though? I had pictured this screeching monkey sound, which is really hard to do. If something more ape-like is fine, I *think* I can do it without choking

Also, I am reposting this request in my LiveJournal--I know there are some hams out there
