The juncGames Archive -- Open Source Projects!!

juncmodule · Wed 03/03/2004 20:55:56

I have decided to release my entire collection of AGS games, source code and all. They are released as a resource for the AGS community though. If you would like to use any portion of them for anything you MUST contact me first.

Here is the rundown:

Keptosh I: The search for junc

Description: My first adventure game. I make extensive use of the CCS by Scorpiorus.

Keptosh v2.0 DEMO

Right click save target as
Description: The game that never was. This would have been an enormous game. Too bad I walked away from it way too soon. Perhaps someday I will come back to it.

Oogly Adventures

Description: This started as a test to see if I could create completely original graphics for a game. I still kind of like it.

AGI Template

Description: I released this some time ago. Didn't get much response. Here it is again.

Spy vs. Spy DEMO

http://www.juncmodule.com/downloads/SPYvsSPY_DEMO.zip
http://www.juncmodule.com/downloads/SPYvsSPY_source.zip
Right click save target as
Description: I was working on this for a few days and never finished it. I used to love playing the Atari ST version of Spy vs. Spy.

A note: I cannot find the full source or even the compiled version of "Tom Hanks Away". I have no freaking idea where I put it. I know I have it, it's just a case of too many backups. :p

UPDATE!: I now have a few different stages of the source! I should be able to put together a downloadable version soon.

If anyone is interested in picking up one of these as a project and continuing with it, let me know. I may be interested in picking one up on a part time basis again as a project director or something.

I'm about 90% positive that I will return to making all four chapters of Keptosh.

v2.0 however, is dead, and will remain dead.

The techniques for drawing characters, backgrounds, etc. took WAY to long. I have to dumb down the graphics a LOT more. I'm much more likely to go back to the Keptosh v1.0 style.

I do think there was a lack of intrest in the Keptosh remake. I may wait until I'm much further into the project next time around before releasing any info. At least be able to dump a demo on the community or something.

If anyone is interested in helping me restart this project drop me a email or IM.

I need 96 backgrounds and 53 characters, so there is plenty of work to go around. I also need puzzle help and coding help. I can code and draw a majority of the work, I just need someone to help with the repetitive work. Mapping out CCS for 53 characters is going to be absolutely massive. Any remake would involve a BASS style interface, no more SCUMM GUI.

Here is the "outline": http://www.juncmodule.com/downloads/Keptosh%20Outline.htm

That's Excellent Junc, and very generous, I hope this helps people out (including myself)

I'd love to see V2, but from your planing of the other chapters, That's a pretty big job you've got ahead, I really can't wait for it all, so I'm going into hibernation......

........are we there yet.

damnit, it doesn't work like that.

Good luck,

~Tim

Junc, big cheers for releasing the source. Its very useful. And about Keptosh 2, couldnt you rework it in keptosh 1 stylee, but just more colours. So it doesnt look so agi, i love the agi look but your Keptosh 2 characters would look nice in a simple high colour look.

um i know what im talking about...

anyways, cheers again

I'm glad you do, because I don't..??

Perhaps you are missing that Keptosh 2 is just a remake and expansion. The first "chapter" of the game will in fact be the same exact plot as "Keptosh 1". My intention originally was to break Keptosh into about 4 or more games. With Keptosh v2.0 (meaning a upgrade, not sequel) I decided to just cram them all into one game and change the style. Which, it turned out, was a big mistake.

There is about a 90% chance that Keptosh will be redone in the following style:

This is easier to draw, and much quicker.

I hope more people find the resource useful. I have yet to put up the "Tom Hanks Away" source but, I will be soon. I just have to go through a few things...

Cool new style you got there Junc, it reminds me of Yoda stories a bit.

And thanks for the game sources.

Pumaman · Sun 30/05/2004 19:24:23

Great resource, junc! Do you mind if I link it from the AGS Resources page?

juncmodule · Sun 30/05/2004 20:29:05

Not at all!

I really don't think it has enough exposure. Very few downloads so far. While you are at it you may want to add http://www.juncmodule.com/juncSource.html

It's the most visited page on my site (607 views this month).

EDIT: I almost forgot, would you consider adding an open source section the AGS games page? Perhaps as a cross category?

thanks,
-junc

MrColossal · Sun 30/05/2004 21:39:28

and put a fake file of the AGS Source Code in there!

Joseph DiPerla · Sun 30/05/2004 23:00:15

Wow, very nice. Thanks for the resources. They will be handy.

I think someone should edit the Spy Vs Spy game and make it multiplayer online using the TCP/IP plugin. I always wanted to see that happen.

Thanks again.

BTW: Any news on when you are gonna update your site with those other resources?

It may be some time. I'm busy with a lot of things right now. I have another website to update, my site to update, album to compose and record, 2 games to make, then I need to do silly job and school thing, and somewhere in there spend time with my girlfriend. :

Lots o' crap.

I want juncSource to be a little bit more involved than it currently is, so it will be a pretty huge rewrite.

I would love to see someone do something with Spy vs. Spy. I wish I had put more time into it. It is semi-playable as it is, but not much fun.

thanks,
-junc

I really like the AGI Template... though, I downloaded it because I thought it was going to have the old AGI style, with the keyboard commands to move around and the good old text parser...

What do I do on Keptosh 2 Demo? I got everything and searched everywhere too. I even made chicken noodle soop! Now what?

Joseph DiPerla · Tue 01/06/2004 03:27:57

Look at the source. All the answers should then be revealed.

The game was never finished.
