Infiltratating of high security enemy bases. Saving hostages at gunpoint, escaping prison cells, scuttling evil plots, fighting several feet in the air, in woods and in packed trains. A friend dead. A month in the life of Stan Marsh secret agent.

Every day of Stan's secret life could cost him his ability to live. A life long friend and colleague had seen that, killed at the hands of the infamous terrorist KM, who Stan later shot from a cradle in the sky with then the worlds most powerful weapon, the "FGG" by the Y-Institute.

After defeating the evil terrorist KMs plot to use a satellite to blow up Asia and thus cut off trade Marsh thought he could do anything.

An enemy that has more than one life and won't die after all is very hard to beat.

However there is one that could give KM a run for his money..... an unknown enemy. A rising threat to the western world, and the US in particular.

A thieving of a top secret army developed biological virus in the hands of evil is a time bomb waiting to explode. Times running out, and time doesn't wait for a SPy for the Y-Institute......

Jon Robson and Scott Ewart in association with Andrew Rumney present the sequel to “SPy”, a game many will have played but even more not played.

The sequel is a hundred fold better than the original, pushes “The Games Factory” to it’s outermost limits, using up 274 frames with around 400 events per mission! With immense programming, spectacular graphics by Scott Ewart, and spectacular cutscenes by Andrew Rumney the project was huge and it’s no surprise it took us 2 years to complete.
The final game consists of 20 playable missions, of two different types: “Time Crisis” style boss levels and top down shoot-em-up missions with objectives, a total of 18 different weapons, flak jackets, a gadget that allows you to hack locks, the ability to fight unarmed with your hands: strangling and punching. The game also features a training area – the HQ of operations (here taking inspiration from the Carrington Institute in the N64 game Perfect Dark)

Some of the resulting games best features include a hand made pause menu which pauses all events on the screen and allows you to change weapons, and review your mission objectives; “timed cheats” (a’la Goldeneye), with 23 winnable cheats obtained by completing the games 20 missions in a quick enough time. The game also contains extra hidden bonuses, film like cutscenes, graphics by a University graphics student and so much more!

We’ve really worked hard on this and we hope it pays off. Even if you dislike the South Park or fan games in general please don’t be put off by the games massive size. Don’t be prejudice, we hope this we can change your view on fan games – it has it’s own storyline, it’s own gameplay, with the only thing linking it to a fan game: it’s graphics (which are not even ripped from the show).

Hope you enjoy! And please please please post your views, they are REALLY important to us!

Still keep crashing and running slow.

Posted by Jon Robson

1st November, 2002

Has anyone actually got past the intro cutscene? :) All the cutscenes are skippable by pressing space apart from the FIRST time you watch the introduction. When it's played once you can skip it. It shouldn't crash but I suppose it depends on computer specifications. I can fix this easily if need be. I'll be home around 10pm and I'll be able to release a small program that will make the introduction skippable. Sorry! The Games Factory is not that stable for some reason and SPY 2 can crash alot without me being able to fix it :/

On my machine it does crash too after the introduction, it just quits back to windows, I have an AMD running WIN XP Pro. Truley a pity, screens look pretty sweet.

man i ahev only got a taste of the engine and boy it rule cant wait until its fixed

Posted by Jon Robson

1st November, 2002

Okay go to the download page. There is a patch there that makes the introduction skippable before you have watched it once! or/ direct download.. (http://www.aoyj70.dsl.pipex.com/yinstitute/spy2download/introskip.zip)

ok i would say this game is good. But it ran like a hog on my machine, and my machine aint crap. So it was unplayable, so its crap. Sorry

Posted by Jon Robson

1st November, 2002

How goods your computer? The Games Factory is crap. I'd transfer it to MMF if it didn't crash whilst doing so, and didn't mess up certain things.

Posted by Zip

1st November, 2002

skn3 are you talking about the first frame where you selet a save? that one lags but the rest of a game is good i ahev p3 500mhs 128ram and it doesnt lag that much

Umm....I may be very fucking dumb for not going to training, but it's awfully hard to reload.

25.6mb?!!!!!!!

Posted by Jon Robson

1st November, 2002

Yep 25.6mb. There's a lot of stuff packed into that zip. Mainly mp3s, the massive game: it's graphics, sound effects and coding - mostly coding. Go on download it anyway you know you want to ;-)

Posted by Zip

1st November, 2002

this game is great and after level 2,2 it seems to be much more stable please everyone download it

Posted by Mark

2nd November, 2002

the freaking mp3s! Mp3s=Bigger file Bigger file=Less downloads Less Downloads=Less people see your work

Posted by Jon Robson

2nd November, 2002

the mp3s are nothing compared to the game itself. The gam file is 41.5mb unzipped..

Posted by Zip

2nd November, 2002

ye true and check entrence gate its bigger but its still nummber one, this games engine is much bigger i belive that whats makes the game bigger

Posted by Eyrd Parker

2nd November, 2002

Well, I'm used to instantaneous or visible reloading...I keep pressing the reload button again and again and I spend about thirty seconds trying to fire my gun.

Posted by Zeta

2nd November, 2002

Congrads, you put one onver us all Jon, now seriously, when's SPy2 really coming out? The engine is like the first one without the little annoying freeze ups. BTW-You left Kyle out of the bios :( PS, you guys should have had more beta testers for the whole thing, things would have turned out much better.

Posted by Rumney

2nd November, 2002

"Press "/"?" Something I complained about since day 1, it should be \ and not /, as I have to shift my hands over to the other side of the keyboard to hit /. Only freaks like you and Scott use that side, Jon, heh

How do you get the antigen? What do you do to get it? Is there a hacking place or what?

Posted by harry

2nd November, 2002

Jon. Good Game... The cutscenes are good. But couldnt you upload the main game files on your site and then the mp3.s as well, then we could download the mp3s at the same time as the game files. THis would make it a quicker download.

Posted by Boiled Head

2nd November, 2002

Open the game => "Read Error." WHHYYYYYY?!?!?!

zeta: you know the blue glass thing with virus bottels in it? shoot it adn it break and those bottles are the antigen

Posted by Zeta

2nd November, 2002

Ohh... you bastard... you ripped the friggin Code Veronic intro! BTW-that only works if you kill all the scientists before you get in.

Posted by Jon Robson

3rd November, 2002

Please can everyone read the troubleshooting bit on the download page if they are having problems with SPy 2. BoiledHead - Move the dlls from the dlls folder into the main game folder, it's probably bass.dll you need to move. Zeta - I've never played Code Veronica, so what have I ripped? Harry - the mp3s add nothing to it. 4mb at the most it's not worth reuploading it separately because I 1)haven't got the upload space, 2)certain people will download that version and not realise they need the mp3s and email asking me what's wrong. Zeta - Kyle should be in the bios. He's the 7th one down in the list. We had beta testers, but someone (whos been forgiven) managed to leak an engine of SPy 2 and we didn't want that :). Sorry about bugs again.

lol why does everyone think misson 2 is hard its easy :P

Posted by Zeta

3rd November, 2002

About Code Veronica, the itnro to that is Claire Redfield managing her way into Umbrella Paris HQ and she gets strafed by a little bird through one of the hallways until she gets into a concrete garage where she gets ambushed by a bunch of guards ,she drops her gun, you see a nice shot of it falling and her grabbing it right before she shoots the barrels behind the guards and boom :-D. I liek the intro to 7.2, that was awesome.

Posted by Rik

4th November, 2002

OK this is nowhere near as good as I was expecting it to be after reading all your comments.. It seems kind of buggy and unproffessional.. meh. Some of the graphics are lame (well the trees in the jungle in particluar, the rest is good - all I'd expect of something trying to look like SP I guess) and the sniperrifle often doesnt shoot at the target, making taking out the sentry guns a right bother :(. Some of the sound effects are also really annoying, like reloading and when you try to fire when you need to reload. The idea is a good one, but it could have been implemented a bit better I think. The gameplays really addictive, and the whole stealth idea is cool. I wouldn't say it was quite worth the 29mb download on a 56k modem though... Oh yeah the intro rules :D

Posted by Jon Robson

4th November, 2002

Zeta - Rumney made that introduction. Heh I nearly removed it from the game because I didn't want you know what to happen. I'm happy I kept it now though. Rik - Play it a bit more. The graphics kind of get better as you play along. It's because the earlier levels were made first. As the game progressed and we added more levels we paid more attention to graphics. We tried our best but you can't really get fully professional for a game like this with The Games Factory. You are too restricted with only 32 directions instead of 360 (hence the dodgy targetting) and The Games Factory is too unstable to stop it from crashing so much. And surely it's gameplay that matters?

Posted by Zip

4th November, 2002

jon let me make a mmf build it would get a bit better more stable and stuff

Posted by Rik

4th November, 2002

umm i would play a bit further but I'm kinda stuck on level 3 :D yeah it's gameplay that matters, but the dodgy targeting affects gameplay, that's my point. I don't hate this game, I just think it could of be better.. maybe using MMF anyway!! Also, the large screensize (I think that's what's to blame) means the game slows down when scrolling, I usually use 320x00 (or whatever it is) for scrolling games. Actually I noticed the slowdown a lot more when playing TGF games on my old PC, I haven't noticed it on this PC before but your game had it..

Posted by Rik

4th November, 2002

320x200* hmm i've thought of a way to overcome the dodgy targeting.. if when u press fire an invisible object (lets say "object A") is created at the target, then you tell the bullets not to be shot, but have a ball movement and to be created at stan when u press fire, and to "always look in direction of object A". The only problem here would be shooting multiple bullets in quick succession, whilst moving the target. However, you could probably overcome this with some counters and more invisible objects and stuff XD

Posted by Jon Robson

5th November, 2002

The bullets have a ball movement already (hence you can pause it) and follow a similar system to that. Still don't work :/

Posted by Jon Robson

6th November, 2002

I'm going to make and release a Multimedia Fusion build if possible. The problems with Multimedia Fusion I had aren't as bad as I thought (it still messes up loads of coding such as mission objectives and the cheat menu but I think it's fixable) If I can fix it then it will run much much quicker performance wise and there should be less bugs (yeh!).

Posted by Jon Robson

6th November, 2002

Multimedia fusion will also cut down the size of the game!

Posted by Jon Robson

6th November, 2002

Argg MMF is very irritating. For some reason collisions are not working such as "when collides with background bounce" (instead they walk through walls despite in the coding being fine) - silly things like that are making it hard to build in MMF.

Posted by Jon Robson

6th November, 2002

Sorry I'm NOT going to be able to make a Multimedia Fusion build. These were the problems I encountered: - Frequent crashing during certain missions - Events such as "collides with backdrop" then "bounce" were in the coding yet weren't doing what they were suppose to in the game - The boss levels ran TOO fast. You didn't get enough time to shoot the rockets.. It's a real shame, because the bugs mess up Spy 2 really bad yet in MMF it runs much faster and when the frames works runs so much faster. SO I can't make a build as much as I want to. Unless someone can give me solutions to the problems I've outlined above.. :( sorry

8th November, 2002

I Would Like To Take, Full acceptance, for all of the bugs and problems in Spy 2. It's all my fault and not Jon's Or Scotts. Although if Rumney wasn't such a drunk, then Newcastle wouldnt br running out of Brown Ale. Also The Weapon training missions don't work. Once again blame me....

Spy 2 Version 1.1 I'm trying to fix any bugs that are possible to fix in a patch. If there's a problem with a level or a glitch of some description - any bug. Please email me at this address: sp-y@dsl.pipex.com and tell me what those bugs are so I can fix them in the patch. Please do not tell me about things like the introduction crashing. I've looked at that, and there is nothing in the coding that suggests I am able to fix it. Also please do not inform me of random crashes during levels. I seriously cannot fix these. Patch should be out soon. I'm also open to ideas to add to the game. I've fixed grammar of Y-Comm briefings for example and have now made it so that the Y-Institute updates with occurances in the storyline.

OK! You can tell what version you have by looking on the top right of the title screen in your SPy 2 game. If you haven't downloaded it yet, this doesn't concern you: the link above now links to Version 1.1. If you have version 1.0 you can update it to 1.1 by going here (add http in front) dialspace.dial.pipex.com/town/pipexdsl/o/aoyj70/yinstitute/v1.1patch.htm

Cool game...experiencing some crashing bugs though. Guess I'll have to deal with it. Where is that music in the intro from, by the way?

Posted by Jirru (Fake "0" Productions)

2nd July, 2003

Needs more work, good game, crashed on me in the training section, the enemies are a little stupid, make the enemies stop when they see you, its like they are berserk or something, And you need to know how to mess around with the view for example, when it collides with an enemy and its y is lower then the enemy then make the player's view to front or if the y is higher then the enemy then make the player view to back, now thats perfect if you could fix those and the animation, its...not that good, but well done and organized.
