~~Like Cascade Failure, this is going to be a mAGS entry. Unlike Cascade Failure, I'm going to finish it in time (I hope). Also unlike Cascade Failure, it's not on hold.~~

Yeah, well, screw that.

Oh Yeah !

Will your game be pure adventure? Or it will mix some minimum RPG/Management stuff? I do see a lots of town around.
Anyway : Sounds fun.

Definitively my kind of game - as long as 'El Presidente' stay as lovely cynical as the screenshots you post.

I'm Looking foward for this game.

It'll probably contain a very little bit of military management. And yes, El Presidente *is* cynic like that

This looks great! I love your style, Akatosh. Oh, and 'were' in "That's were most of the trade between Yankees, Commies, and Europeans are" should be 'where', not 'were'.

Akatosh · Tue 08/05/2007 15:49:39

I already got PM'ed on that... but thanks anyway. I should probably fix it

Also, I'm glad to see you like that style. I takes a bit more work than my old style, but seems like it payed of.

Dan_N · Tue 08/05/2007 18:52:08

Akatosh, this sounds like a really fun Evil Genius-esque game, I wish you good luck with it. Can't wait for it!

Although, I'd really like to see this developed into more than just a MAGS game. Maybe after you finish it, you might want to make a deluxe version or a sequel that combines more RPG/number-based strategy games that I seem to love so much/management with adventure.

Anyway, good luck again with it, this is surely a game I'll play.

Wow the graphics are simple yet lovely and that map surely shows that this will be a good game. I will definitely play it when it is out! Btw, akatosh how old are you?

Check his profile.

Back onto topic, this looks good Akatosh. But I have a question; how long will this game be?

Akatosh · Wed 09/05/2007 17:10:32

I'm 16. And I fear the mAGS-edition won't bee too long (due to Real Life and discovering a N64-Emulator intereference), but looking at the kind of feedback I get, I'll probably extend it a bit afterwards... if you say "please"

Dan_N · Wed 09/05/2007 17:38:42

Please. Pretty please. Pretty please with lots and lots of C++ coding on top. And also, why just a bit? This sounds like a brilliant game...

A little detail giveaway time!

Spoiler

That yankee government decided to investigate the case of the two lost yankee agents. Bwah. Where is the TIS (Tropican Intelligence Service) when you need them?

[close]

Also, there is a General y Mota in the game. Anyone recognising the name?

/EDIT: HIDE tags, Akatosh. HIDE tags. It still isn't a difficult concept.

Now, honestly for El General... I dunno

EDIT : I don't got it.

Akatosh · Thu 17/05/2007 15:01:36

General y Mota! Tequila y Mota! Apperantly, nobody else reads the books that I read.

Anyway, minor update: The game contains ninjas now. Hooray, ninjas!

Ninjas are pretty cool. But I prefer pirates.

LUniqueDan · Fri 25/05/2007 23:24:51

HOORAY Ninjas!

QuoteNinjas are pretty cool. But I prefer pirates.

nah... Ninjas can throw stars. While pirate's standard shovels have a lower range of action. All south-american dictatorship banned pirates anyway but never ever said a word against ninjas. I swear.

Ninjas are pretty cool. But I prefer psychoanalysts.

Can we have Guerilleros who raid village to buy Sandwiches? Please Please Pretty Please with Woody Allen false beard on Top?

Akatosh · Mon 28/05/2007 13:33:58

Since I missed the mAGS due to my ISP being struck by lightning or something anyway, this will get a bit bigger, anyway.

Jon · Mon 28/05/2007 13:52:54

Yay! I secretly hoped that you would miss the deadline, so that you would extend this game

Akatosh · Mon 28/05/2007 14:01:40

Um... thanks?

Dan_N · Wed 30/05/2007 07:30:08

Well, if it'll be bigger and better, then it'll be worth the wait, go Akatosh!
