[first look demo released!] Another Hero

GwendolynYamashita · Mon 06/05/2019 16:57:09

Hi everybody!

I'm happy to announce my current project with the working title "Another Hero"! It is my second project in AGS and this time with a completely original setting, story, and gameplay.

The game is set in a medieval fantasy world in which protagonist, the knight Sir George, wakes up to find his trusted knave to have disappeared together with all his belongings. Bewildered he sets out to find the truth behind that betrayal.

I made the first puzzle into a short first look demo (https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/games/game/2345/), so you guys can get a feel for the story and the puzzle design!
Please bear in mind that a few things (especially interface and sound design) are still very rough!

I hope you'll enjoy!

Quick UPDATE on the production process!
I have been working less than I'd like on my game these past few months, but sometimes life hits you like a truck. Anyway, I'm still very much working on it and wanted to thank everyone for their unexpectedly super positive feedback! I have basically designed the puzzle structure for the following scene and am now working on the graphics and dialogues. Here are a few WIP pictures

I liked the atmosphere within the shadows and the sound of the fire, the graphics and animations are really nice.

Whoa! Thank you guys for your kind and generous responses! Especially those concerning the art design. I'm very new to everything still and have a lot to improve in the art department, but am very glad that it isn't disliked!
