HardyDev flirts with AGSers (07.07 - Akril talks Adventure in her own FEATURE)

I can do text and video reviews. In fact, I have a video for a "certain game" that I can shoot you a link to if you're interested.

Some text reviews on my site:
Games: A mix of full reviews and summaries/overviews.
Movie (to see more of my review style): http://ddq5.com/2009/08/28/vpsuckshard/

EDIT: The video was just uploaded and is current set to private. No one's seen it yet.

Super-important announcement that will blow you out of the water more than all this recent Cosmo Quest stuff!!!!

Starting today HardyDev changes its focus to adventure games in the true sense of the word "adventure". And what better way to start our journey in this new, exciting direction than with a review of Modern VVarfare 2 written by ddq.

Haha, nice April Fool's review

Thank you kindly! It was a fun one to write. And in the name of being mysteriously secretive and secretly mysterious, I'll just say there's some more pretty rad stuff coming up.

xenogia · Tue 06/04/2010 04:36:03

Haha, I truly look forward to it.

Wesrey has been... teaching AGS in class.

Igor Hardy · Sat 11/09/2010 16:35:19

I was thinking to leave that thread rot away as new writers got found and all, but...

Firstly, we have a great new article by The Journey's Down creator Theodor Waern focused on the creation of background art for adventure games.

Secondly, there's a great review of The Journey Down written by ddq.

Thirdly, markbilly has finished reviewing the whole, gargantuan 3rd Sam & Max season.

And finally, I do want to remind everyone else that we will gladly post your game design and adventure-gaming-related articles. Just pm me, if interested.
