Normally I'd post this in the "Games In Development" sub-forum, but I'm not quite ready to unveil the unmatched righteousness of the in-game screen shots. Instead, I'm posting a (funky) teaser trailer here for the soon-to-be-released next slice of awesomeness from the ever growing world of Oceanspirit Dennis.

All I can say is funking YEAH!
Let me add to that:
That's some funky stuff! :D
Looks very cool and all, but why can't the naked and the ninja be one and the same!? ???

That's been done. (http://jwalkin.comicgenesis.com/d/20010725.html)
I'm glad you guys like it. I had a feeling that this community was indeed the funkiest place on the internet. I'm glad to see that I was right.
For the record, the teaser is a large slice of the opening movie. It (and the game) was made with AGS 2.27 (yes, I'm a cranky old man who clings to the past) and MS Paint. I should have the game done in another few weeks. But that all depends on how many uninterrupted lunch breaks I can get between now and then.
Stay funky, AGSers

Looks righteous! Is LPR gonna be the main character? Will there be BIG PIMPING? No voice acting I'm guessing. Still, good work and good luck!
Spoiler
But did you forget about Snake?

To answer the last question first: Holy crap. I DID forget about Snake! And just as his avatar was about to become season appropriate again! See? That's what I get for doing that movie on my lunch breaks (and all from memory, I might add)*. Damn it. I'm sorry Snake. Can you ever forgive me? Are we still BFFs? :'(
And yes, LPR will be the main character. And since two of your inventory items are a pimpin' hat and a pimpin' cane, you can make a reasonable guess that some amount of pimping action will occur.
No there won't be any voice acting. Hell, these OSD games are the first games I've made for AGS that actually have sound effects. So baby steps, man. Baby steps.
Right on,
Ponch

* Snake will be included in the credits when the game comes out. I promise.
Amazing :D
Please excuse me while I make funky preparations for getting funky.

Word on the street is that you're already plenty funky, baby.
Solid,
Ponch
Thanks for that, but kindly stop mucking about with Oceanspurt Dunce and get back to Barn Runner...IMMEDIATELY.
I'll have you know I have outstanding codes to put to good use, bub, and you're seriously harshing my buzz by making me wait to do so :).
I believe in you Oceanspirit Dennis Ponch!

The beauty of OSD is that I can work on a Dennis game on my laptop while sitting at my desk on my lunch break. All I need is my trusty old copy of AGS 2.72 and MS Paint.
Conversely, to work on a Barn Runner game, I need a pencil, some paper, a scanner, PhotoShop, a 2 liter of Diet Dr. Pepper, a stick of Old Spice High Endurance (Fresh scent, thank you very much), and the complete soundtracks to both Bubblegum Crisis and Rocky IV. Also, to ensure that I can "make the magic happen", I need to be wearing my best Hugh Hefner robe (and nothing else). This makes it difficult (and possible illegal) to make the magic happen at work.
And that is
I like to get down Barn Runner games are made. The more you know...
Now if you'll excuse me, I need to crack open some Diet Dr. Pepper and slip into a robe, and annoy my neighbors by playing "Hearts on Fire" far too loudly while I sharpen some pencils. Whew, I'm getting sweaty just thinking about it. Good thing I have a stick of Old Spice handy.

Holy shit, that's not good at all! >:(
I've actually started working on a small OSD title of my own with LPR being the main character (OSD: A Ray of hope).
I hope it would not contradict yours...
But I guess in the worst case scenario, Ray too will split into two different universes.

OSD splits into a new universe every time a new game comes out. ;)
But I sent you a PM. I'm sure we can work out any overlap issues if we just believe in Oceanspirit Dennis.

AGS community! Your attention please!
The crisis has passed and you may go back to your normal lives. After a quick exchange of PMs, I feel confident that Tzachs and I have come to an arrangement that will preserve the precious, fragile Oceanspirit Dennis continuity while still allowing you to have two (count 'em: 2) Life Partner Ray games within a relatively short span of time.
We appreciate the bravery and determination you all showed during these trying times and we want to reassure you that it is now safe to go on with your normal lives.
Thank you and God bless Texas.

p.s Thanks, Peder. I was hoping for funky, but I'll happily accept awesome too.
p.p.s Icey, you are not alone. I giggle every time I same "square peniks."
Exciting times are ahead...
So if this is to be a pimping adventure game, what other genres has the OSDverse yet to explore? Must a cover-based third person shooter called Oceanspirit Dennis: Brown Justice be made in all the glory of the next generation "dirt" palette? I say it must!

Was that DOOM style AGS shooter module ever finished? That could be the next one. Oceanspirit Dennis and the Haunted Tunnels of Perfect Squareness.
Someone should make that happen right away.
I'm very much looking forward to this, and in fact have become inspired to work on my own game, Oceanspirit Bennis: Paranormal Investigator.

After BJ 5 I just knew Ben was a real ninja. ;D

Here's a mock-up!

That's hilarious, Lyaer ;D
I wanna see more than a mockup!
..that goes to both Lyaer and Grundislav!
I like where this thread is going. :)
Lyaer: In close combat, Dennis could use his spiky hair as a weapon! Also, I dig the eye patch vision.
Also, Grundi: Oceanspirit Bennis needs to happen!
