Greeting everybody!

My name is Pauli Suuraho, and I am the creator of Dog Adventure Game Engine, or shorter, Dage. Dage is dedicated for creating 3D adventure games with easy scripting and it is completely free for anyone to use.

For this Dage, I have also made a portal-style website called DagePort, which is dedicated for independent 3D adventure games and making of them. We have hand coded content management system, called DageCMS, and integrated wiki, which enabled us to provide services so cool you will melt when you see them. You can upload games, scripts, models, animations, tutorials and everything related to the genre of independent adventure gaming.

If you are good at modeling, we encourage you to participate into DagePort and making it grow so people coming there with skills of programming and no art can create games also!

Please for a few minutes take a look at our site and tell how you like it. I am very eager to hear to feedback.

Thank you for your time.

Looking good.  I do like the integrated documentation wiki.  Writing your own CMS sounds like a lot of effort, though - what was the reason for you not using one off the shelf?

Well one reason was that no one did provide me the functionality I really wanted. And they were actually hard to integrate to use other authentication system (yes I tried). Firstly Dage were using Dokuwiki, but after finding no way to actually include another article to another, I gave up and wrote myself. Theming is much easier when you have full control and you don't have to learn the templating system. Well I used a Codeigniter as a base system, and markup language parser is Markdown PHP. So it was really not a big deal to make the wiki around it. It's all about copy&paste really :D Plus making things yourself really teaches you a lot.

As the editor becomes more fleshed out I'll be paying more and more attention to Dage, Pauli.  So far it's looking very promising!

Ah! There is no emoticon for what I'm feeling!

Nice of you to post an update sir! All very promising, I just wish I could get a proper grip of 3D adventure making. Something to do when I'm 30 though, for now ;)
