Yup thats right! What do you think? Should this be made in AGS?
Personally, I would rather see Space Balls instead, you know....Use the Schwarts

I'm actually a planning a Star Wars parody adventure game with ags. ::)
A game starring Han Solo and Chewbacca would be pretty swell.

But seriously guys - we have way too many official and unofficial Star Wars games/films/comics, including endless amounts of parodies.
Why not support a lesser known franchise, fictional universe, if you are not keen on realizing some original idea? At least something less beaten up to death than SW.
Ah c'mon guys! It ain't that bad, who doesn't want to tell Luke "I AM YO FOTHA!" Seriously, priceless. Oh and come to the dark side, we have power, and Sljivovica! :D
Do how you feel of course. Nothing bad about it.
I just feel that Star Wars has reached the point where it's a waste of time and energy to produce more Star Wars fan content. Unless it's mostly for close friends and personal pleasure.

Ouch, you are right, but when there are 100.000 why not 100.001?
Before takling such a character that has so much lore and so much popularity...and lawyer happy owners like Lucas, I suggest you do something of your own. So much was already done for Vader (good and bad) writers and game designers more experienced and studios with bigger budgets than you have.
Do something on your own, something short and easy, that'll help you learn the AGS engine, writing for games, general game design, maybe even get better at animation, drawing and programming. To me this sounds like one of those ideas that you think is great and awesome and original, but it's kind of "meh". Do that and save some of the ideas that still stay in your mind for when you are able to give them a better quality.
You'll learn in time that there's a difference between what you can imagine, what you can do that's limited by software and your abilites and what's just and idea that's not really fit for a game all together.

Oh, there's absolutely no shame in it. :)
What would you like to take away from working on and completing the project - that's the important thing on which all else depends.
I suggest that, instead of Darth Vader, you concentrate on a smaller, non-canonical character... such as making a game called:
Confessions of a Zapper-Happy Jawa
or...
A Day in the Life of a Terminally Bored Wookie
Actually, I can't think of many Star Wars adventure games, official or not. The only one that comes to mind is Yoda Stories, which was.....really bad :D. Darth was making one when he originally joined, but I think that was abandonned. There was a demo of one that came out a couple years ago from someone else, but I don't think that ever got completed either...

It SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKED!
And Indy's Desktop Adventures was worse!
/me makes a run for it
Fine, I will just throw away my "I <3 Alien Time Zone" shirt so that some garbage dump dwelling explorer can combine it with a pile of goo so that he can get through to the sewers and throw the shirt away because it is all gooey and gross.

Oh yeah? And you fight like a bantha poodoo!
Seriously both desktop adventures while nothing perfect, were a great idea.
/me uses the biggest insult he can think of for someone on these forums
CASUAL GAMER!!11!!! :P
Seriously, I guess they were okay for a quick 10 minutes of fun while waiting for something more important, but anything more than that, and the obvious crappiness showed too easily.
Just because you were a jaded, grumpy old man by the age of 4, Bar Bar Binks!
:D
Those were a good four years :(.
I used to be an adventure-gamer, but then I took a Yoda Stories to the knee....
Tis was my last haven to escape that meme, why? :'(
I endorse everything Babar has said about those sad-sack excuses for 'games' called Yoda Bories and Indy's Dumbass Adventures.
I suppose I wouldn't mind a well made star wars adventure game, but we've already seen Darth as a mentor in Shai-La of the Sith.
What about a Star Trek parody game? Has anybody ever done one of those?

I remember one called
Star Wreck on ye olde Atari ST years ago, made with STAC (ST Adventure Creator) I think, but not sure about a more modern one.
If it doesn't need to be AGS, you might take a look for the fangame project "Star Trek Fyne" (http://www.fynegames.homepage.t-online.de/39994.html).
You can play it already (and they still have episodes in work).
