  2. One For Many

Oni is a fusion of two genres, a 'street fighter' game like Tekken or SoulCalibur, combined with third-person shooter games like Tomb Raider. The action is furious, fast paced, and EXTREMELY fun. This is a truly unique game, and nothing released before this comes as close as this to a no-holds-barred brawl. Oni is a third-person action video game developed by Bungie West, a division of Bungie.Released in 2001, it was Bungie West's only game. Gameplay consists of third-person shooting with hand-to-hand combat, with a focus on the latter.Originally planned just for the Mac OS and Windows, a PlayStation 2 port was concurrently developed by Rockstar Canada.The game's style was largely inspired.

Oni is a third-person action video game developed by Bungie West, a division of Bungie. Released in 2001, it was Bungie West's only game. Gameplay consists of third-person shooting with hand-to-hand combat, with a focus on the latter. Originally planned just for the Mac OS and Windows, a PlayStation 2 port was concurrently developed by Rockstar Canada. The game's style was largely inspired by Ghost in the Shell and Akira and shares the same genre, being set in a cyberpunk world.

Gameplay

There are ten different guns in Oni, including handguns, rifles, rocket launchers, and energy weapons. Power-ups such as 'hyposprays', which heal damage, and cloaking devices, which render the player invisible, can be found scattered throughout the levels or on corpses. Since the player can carry only one weapon at a time and ammunition is scarce, hand-to-hand combat is the most effective and common means of defeating enemies. The player can punch, kick, and throw enemies; progressing into later levels unlocks stronger moves and combos.

There are multiple classes of enemy, each with its own style of unarmed combat. Each class is subdivided into tiers of increasing strength. As in Bungie's earlier Marathon titles, tiers are color-coded, in this case by green (weakest), blue, and red (strongest). Also color-coded are the levels of health each opponent has, indicated by a flash when the player strikes or shoots them. Green flashes show the opponent has high health, red flashes show the enemy is near death.

Oni does not confine the player to fighting small groups of enemies in small arenas; each area is fully open to explore. The fourteen levels are of various sizes, some large enough to comprise an entire building. Bungie hired two architects to design the buildings.

The Oni engine implements a method of interpolation that tweens key frames, smoothing out the animation of complex martial-arts moves. However, frame slippage is a common problem when multiple non-player characters near the player are attacking.

  3. Run the copied file 'Oni', a dialog will appear with the inscription 'Alert, You need to select the installation directory for Oni', click on it 'Select retail installation ...'.

Notes

  1. ↑Bungie Software developed the original Mac OS (PowerPC) port targeting 'Classic' Mac OS 8 and 9, and utilized the Carbon API to allow it to run on both the Classic version of the operating system as well as the upcoming Mac OS X.[1]
  2. ↑At the end of 2001, The Omni Group produced and released a more OS X-compatible (PowerPC) build of the game for free using the Cocoa API, which they continued to update and support through the next two years.[1]
  3. ↑In the first half of 2011 Feral Interactive released an Intel-native build of the game based on The Omni Group's Cocoa/PowerPC-based source code.[1]
  4. ↑December 18, 2001 is the release date for the first Cocoa API-based build of the game released by The Omni Group that brought with it native OS X support for PowerPC CPUs.[2]
  5. ↑April 5, 2011 is the release date for the first semi-official build released by Feral Interactive that brought with it native support for Intel CPUs.[3]
  6. ↑The copy of CarbonLib which came with Oni required Mac OS 8.6; earlier versions of CarbonLib which had lower OS requirements have not been tested with Oni.
