Title: Dennis4President
Post by: Reid on Tue 15/01/2008 10:04:30
Hi everyone,

I'm working on a "serious game" to educate others about Dennis Kucinich, a presidential candidate in the USA who is being barred from participating in nationally televised debates. I thought a game might help to express his ideas to more people. We'll see what happens! I'd like anyone that's interested to test the game and see if there are problems with the whole process, downloading, unzipping and playing.

Any feedback is welcome.

The gameplay is a trivia game of sorts, you are asked questions and you click on the person you think is the right answer.

To be clear, this is NOT an adventure game, but it does use the AGS engine. Thanks for any help in testing to make sure this is ready for release. Please don't share this, I may have to release a new version if there are fixes I need to make. Thanks!

-Reid

First, I just want to say that I feel a bit silly. At first I couldn't start the game because appearently I need Pixelshader 1.4. I have 1.3. I know I should really get a new video card.... but why does this game need that? I mean I can run UT2004 at highest settings but I can run this game at normal settings?  ???

anyway, as for the game:

Spoiler
I finally got the game to work. So I got the first question. Since the game is about this guy Dennis, I though lets pick him. I thought this was a lucky guess but when I kept picking him and eventually I won the game.

Oh well... I probably would have liked it more if I lived in the US.

Pixel shader? For an ags game?

In that case I think either it is a plugin or it's made with AGS V3 beta, in that case, try setting up the game to use DirectX5 instead.

I'm not sure AGS may be used for political propaganda. Anyway, good luck!
