In any aspect, he might want to show some of his work first to get attention and remain honest.

Right. Nobody's against an AGS game. Especially cool one. So, mr. Patousek, don't be afraid to post more of your idea and show what you've got. I'm sure you'll get the help you need, too. And more trust from AGSers.

someone working for a talented company like Illusion Softworks would defenitely know at least a bit of coding [...] Even if he would just be an texture artist or something in that order.
My apologies if I'm wrong, this were just my two cents.

I've never met a professional game artist that knows any coding, or had any interest in coding.
Roles in game companies tend to be pretty strictly delineated.
A better question would be why he doesn't want to team up with a programmer at illusion to do an adventure - but maybe there's just no-one interested

I rather suspect it's the old "I'm doing this day and night as my job, I don't really want to do any more of it in my spare time for no money" type thing.
Possibly also "I already know five programming languages, I don't really want to learn another one".

I know of atleast 1, doing small mod work as both an artist and coder before getting a job.
