Flipped this months issue open and I was staring at a chunk about AGS. They even threw in a short review of The Uncertainty Machine.

Adventure Game Studio
Always wanted to make adventure games yourself, but never had the time to learn programming? With AGS you finally have a chance. With this program people with imagination and a lot of patience can make their own game, like The Uncertainty Machine. Justa bout everything in the creative process is done with inputscreens. You make backgrounds, animations and dialogs and specify in the program waht the player can do in every enviroment. AGS does the rest.

The Uncertainty Machine
We make a computermagazine for you and when we do that we are called 'journalists'. But you will rarely catch us unraveling large conspiracies in society. For that you would need a newspaper journalist. That's the kind of journalist you play in The Uncertainty Machine, an original adventure in classic point-and-click style. There is something wrong in the seemingly perfect society and it's your taks to find out what. A good and nice-looking game which you could make too. See AGS.

Wow, this is cool :)
Wow, AGS seems to get a lot of publicity these days! Wonder when any of our local mags will mention it ...
AGS was even in the german TV show GIGA Games.
You can download the records of the shows about AGS here:
Show from April, 17th - small (http://adventurecorner.de/filebase_details.php?file_id=28019&sort=caption&order=desc&limit_page=50)
Show from April, 17th - large (http://adventurecorner.de/filebase_details.php?file_id=28022&sort=caption&order=desc&limit_page=50)
Show from April, 10th - small (http://adventurecorner.de/filebase_details.php?file_id=28020&sort=caption&order=desc&limit_page=50)
Show from April, 10th - large (http://adventurecorner.de/filebase_details.php?file_id=28021&sort=caption&order=desc&limit_page=50)
Be careful: Every page has two download links.
The upper one is faster, but you'll have to pay.
The lower one is free, but slower.
The large versions take very long to download and the small versions are not so bad at all, so I would recommend to take the lower versions.
Most of you will probably not understand much of that, what they say, but it'll be interesting, though.

Kool about AGS getting this hype though. In a few years time I forsee it getting a lot more...
Wahoo! Go AGS! :)
