Banjo's Backpack (Previously Mumbo's Wand) Coming May 31st
 

To celebrate the 15th anniversary, we will be releasing the first version of Banjo's Backpack: The Banjo-Kazooie editor on May 31st. A link will be provided in this post when it's released.

It's now your turn to show Rare how it's done! Start creating your levels!

OH MY SEAVOR IM SO HAPPY!!!!!!!!11111!!!!!!!!1111
Seriously though, this is great news.
Thanks Coolboyman, you and Skill (and whoever worked on the project) just made this anniversary better.
This is year is so good for gaming!

It's about time. :)

Ten bucks says that Microsoft tries to shut it down for some loony reason

What's with the name change? Not that I hate it, I'm more just curious.

Because its Banjo's game? Personally I would not care if it was "Grunty's Broomstick". Banjo kazooie level editor is going to be amazing!!!

A YouTube user made a video named Mumbo's Wand and he accused Skill and Coolboyman they stole it.

That makes sense. Oh well. Logistics. I look forward to this release as well!

They were also a RWP member...

Because Lupaie didn't like the confusion it brought to his Mumbo's Wand.

Woo-hoo! Thanks guys!!!

Banjo's Backpack is a better name anyway because it has Banjo in it so people actually know what you're on about.

:mumbo: Cheeky Jinjo not know what he's talking about. Mumbo is most famous. Oomenacka!

Awesome. Would you be able to create a whole new game with this? Or just levels to load into Banjo?


Guessing no Tooie support too, right?

No Tooie support. Altough you could import levels from Tooie I think. At least partially. New Pads and stuff wouldn't work or anything.

Last I heard, we were still a while off from being able to edit text and making scripted scenes. So if by "game" you mean conglomeration of worlds in a hub world then sure. I dunno every single thing we'll be able to do though.
