ok so it does soooort of work out of the box with wine. however, there are two tricks: 1. dialogue text does not render. 2. (evil) the game crashes whenever a music track reaches the end and tries to loop

we got so stupidly lucky that this pre-alpha build of the game was shared before someone cajoled a dev to release the final stable build. if we got the final build first, it wouldve been all we ever got & everyone wouldve just assumed 'ok this game mostly sucks'

[speaking insanely] we could have had a game of all time if only the lego group of companies were not a capitalist machine

hi! there's a blogposts worth of answer to this question but to give a tweet-sized one: there were initially only 3 rahi products (cobra, tiger, hawk), and these symbols were probably devised to represent them early on

to be fair i dont think the 'chief' is ever referred to as such in material from lego, people just decided that because of his special hat

oh my god. one of the stupid bionicle scalpers is selling the bohrok vhs, and he didnt know what it is. so he had AI write the item description. and it just regurgitated my bmp news post about the 35mm theater ad i found, which is a completely different thing. <https://www.ebay.com/itm/157932051448>

the ebay description reads: You are looking at an absolute piece of Bionicle history. This is an original, physical 35mm film print of the legendary 2002 Bohrok Teaser Trailer.

Originally distributed to movie theaters in Texas for promotional screenings before the official Bohrok launch, this film print is an incredibly rare artifact from the golden era of Bionicle. It is the exact source piece used to bring Bohrok footage to the public online in true HD for the very first time! (A true "SU-per" find, just like the Krana Su).
Item & Project Backstory:

Theater Heritage: Genuine 35mm film roll used in US cinema distribution back in 2002.

HD Source Material: Professionally digitized by the film experts at Kineko Video. All post-processing and meticulous color correction were handled in-house to ensure the highest possible quality preservation.

Collector's Provenance: Spotted on eBay by community helper Jaina and preserved for the community.

What is Included in this Listing:

The Original 35mm Film Print: The physical movie theater VHS of the Bohrok Teaser Trailer.

Digital Legacy: This archive-grade print serves as the master copy for the high-definition digital releases currently archived by the BioMedia Project (BMP).

BONUS: The BMP Backlog "Die Legende Lebt" History

As part of the preservation journey surrounding this generation of Bionicle media, this item is closely tied to the definitive archiving of the European Bohrok VHS tape ("The Legend Lives"). Through a chain of community upgrades (including anonymous high-quality digitizations, letterbox removal, Vahkiti's stock music sourcing, and Gatanui's translated subtitles), the spirit of this era has been fully captured. Please note: This listing is for the physical 35mm film trailer print
