Squinky · Thu 19/02/2004 05:16:42

Just make it and put a link here, a link inthe anouncement forums wouldn't hurt either...

Gord10 · Thu 19/02/2004 15:09:52

And another question: Can you tell me when the games have to be finished?

As for February being such a short month I will need all games in by 23rd

ElaineMc · Sat 21/02/2004 21:24:40

My submission can be downloaded here: http://overactivei.net/ags/am01.htm

General plotline: In a quiet English countryside in 1813, a young woman finds her village has been deserted... and finds
herself having to deal with homicidal robotic zombies.

It's my very first complete game, and I really, really hope there aren't any outstanding bugs.

Squinky · Sun 22/02/2004 06:40:23

I whipped up *short* Demonslayer game, but since I think I've got a day or two, I'd like to ask somebody to betatest...it's amazingly short...but what the hell. Anybody wanting to beta test, please get ahold of me in some modern fashion...

Gord10 · Sun 22/02/2004 10:22:19

And here's Escape From The Zombie City

I could barely finished it, so it isn't long and there aren't 2 endings

But I hope you enjoy it.

ElaineMc:
Wow! That was superb! I loved the characterisation that the asides and the dialog portraits give to the story.
Everything worked beautifully too.
Excellent game.

Gord:
The archive seems to be corrupt? Anyway I tried to get it a couple of times and it only downloaded .99Mb, rather than the 5Mb reported in the zip.

Steve

PS - EMc: Massive nit-pick: the main menu buttons should trigger on all the cursor modes really.

AGA · Sun 22/02/2004 13:35:04

Same here, Steve. Looks like the archive is corrupt, Gord.

Ytterbium · Mon 23/02/2004 00:01:52

Is anyone making a game where you play as the zombie?

Squinky · Mon 23/02/2004 01:47:58

I'll enter DemonSlayer 5. Further info availabel in the announcement forum....

Nice to see already three relevant entries.

We see there's a problem with the zip archive of Gord10-Ahmet. Please try to put a working version of your game only. Else we can not check it out...

NIGHT OF THE ZOMBIE FISH is my first AGS game and I am very proud of it, even if you arent.
It is about a fish who gets lost in the sea, and has to find a way out of a place where almost all the fish are zombies!

Just a note to new and old and special MAGS participants: Please always post a link to your entry in the MAGS thread, too. Some miss to do this. Thanks.

Now when will the voting start? Let's say in 9 hours from now (see timestamp of this post)!

If Gord can't publish his game until then we'll wait for him some more time (just to give him the change to upload) and then the voiting will start in 23 hours from now. Okay?

Gord10 · Mon 23/02/2004 13:47:07

GURK :o :'( . OK, I'll download another version. I hope the new version works.

Dorcan · Mon 23/02/2004 14:02:47

I thought that the last moment to submit our game was 23 February 23:59... depending on the time zone of course. I would like to try finishing ma little game :

Hm... Not really, but if you need just some more time that's of course no problem. Actually the "time to go" message is always intended to be a request if anyone needs some extra time.
So we better use the second way that I suggested. This means the doors for submissions will close in about 17 hours from now (see timestamp of this message). Enough time for everyone all over the world

Gord10 · Mon 23/02/2004 15:02:49

I hope this version works

It worked for me...

Moox · Mon 23/02/2004 22:49:30

hopefully mine will be uploaded and done by midnight, dial up sucks

Dorcan · Tue 24/02/2004 04:46:17

Here's my unfinished...err... demo game !
Dorcan's zombie game demo

Be warned, there aren't any puzzles. I simply hadn't enough time and motivation, and I'm also very tired now :

So I hope you will enjoy the intro, as I had fun making it

(I found the musics on internet)

Btw, here's a little animation I made for the game, but I didn't include it for the moment, so I'll just show it. That's my main character, a clown who has lost his smile :

I hope I will find the motivation to finish this game someday

Edit : I've updated the demo, the axe was missing

Klaus · Tue 24/02/2004 13:07:57

Well, I'd say enough time passed by now for everyone to present their entries. I'm very sorry that Dorcan's game yet only reached an "intro status" and so it can not take part in the voting. Anyway it's highly recommended to check out his piece of work.

For voting please visit the MAGS site or make your choice right here:

Night of the Zombie fish by releasethefrogs
Last Clown Standing by Creed Malay
Escape From The Zombie City by Gord10-Ahmet
DemonSlayer 5 by Squinky
Armageddon Margaret by ElaineMc

Please vote only once and be sure to have played all games before sending your voice! Good luck to all participants.

Creed Malay · Tue 24/02/2004 14:27:55

Dammit! why don't I check these forums more regular? I just found out what this months theme was this morning, and have spent the last few hours putting together a little something... and now I'm too late.
Damn youse! Damn youse all to hell!

Well, never mind. Here it be anyway.
