Beginners' Technical Questions / Using screenshots in game

« on: 06 Jan 2012, 17:29 »

So I am working on an idea for a game and one of the characters items is a camera. I thought that within the game you could take pictures of things in the game and look at these pictures to assist in solving puzzles. So my question is if it is possible to take a screenshot in the game and recall it to look at it later in the game?

Adventure Related Talk & Chat / How to Write an adventure game?? (puzzles)

« on: 27 Jul 2011, 15:53 »

So i have this dilemma. i have an idea for a game that i want to make, i have the basic direction that i want to go with it, but every time i try to figure out how to insert puzzles into the game i get stuck. i cant for the life of me figure out how you guys make such great puzzles that go with the story so well. so i am asking: what are your techniques in implementing puzzles into your games?

AGS Games in Production / [CANCELED] The Curse of Monkey Island - Classic Edition

« on: 02 Dec 2010, 22:35 »

THE CURSE OF MONKEY ISLAND: OLD SCHOOL EDITION DEMO

This is a fan-made remake (or demake if you will) of the classic Lucasarts game "The Curse Of Monkey Island", the third installment of the Monkey Island series. The aim of this game is to give fans of the original game an idea of what the game would have been like had Lucasarts made it wih the same version of the SCUMM engine, art and animations as "The Secret of Monkey Island" and "Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge".  Currently I am just working on the free demo that you can download here, but I would love to continue to do the entire game.

For current information and updates on the progress of this project please visit my blog at cmioe.blogspot.com/

If you would like to help in the development of this project, I am currently looking for:

   Background artists
   Spriters
   MIDI Musicians

If your interested in helping in these or other areas please feel free to contact me via pm or email at the following address:

Thanks for your support and have fun!!!
