AGS Swarms like the Draculator project? Any swarm that could match the first one in quality work, would be a pleasure to see happen.

If we did another swarm it would be cool if we had better style guidelines and the story was more serious.

Radioactive killer bees that give everyone the proportional superpowers of radioactive killer bees (pollinating flowers, communicating by dance, dying for the queen, radioactivity) oh my god I was just joking but now I think that would be legitimately awesome!

I'll also point you to this post -> http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=45944.0

When it's done I imagine it could be VERY helpful in swarm development.

I'm still working on it. It's getting done, it's on schedule although it feels slow. I'm hoping after the summer things might pick up. I might book some time off work to work full-time on it for a week or so.
When I was a little kid we had a sand box. It was a quicksand box. I was an only child... eventually.

But the question is - do we count the misspelled ones?  :tongue:
The impossible often has a kind of integrity which the merely improbable lacks.

Hahaha very funny. I was thinking more along the lines of something more serious in story, and easy to make with a lot of people. The first one was ok, the second one with the AGS Kart just died offed slowly if I'm correct. But Maybe one day a third one will be the best one. It could be an adventure game with an explore(like drake from uncharted) but features bits of things discussed in the topic like the radioactive killer bees.

Could imagine setting a trap that released the bees and then having to run and jump to the next platform to get away. Working people who work with different types of games would benefit in this swarm cause someone like mode7 could help with the whole jump/climbing thing cause he did it in Concurrence.
