May MAGS - Ralph the Raven (UPDATE 24/05/04)

[Minimi]

NEWS : Game is almost ready. I have everything drawn, the GUI works, animations are done,  hotspots and messages.... just need to script the puzzles, and make an intro, and introscreen. Probably today, or tomorrow done!
----------------------------------------------------------

And once again I'm going to enter the MAGS competition, with a game about animals. This time you play as Ralph the raven!

story/plot : Ralph fell of a tree in his sleep, and broke his wing. The owl helped him, to take him to his house, up in the tree. When Ralph is back to strength, he still can't fly, and needs help from the owl, to take care of his broken wing, to heal again. But the owl wants something in return, and asks you to first steal an egg from a near nest. The owl would make too much noise, but you are a small bird, and able to take it.
Only if you bring the egg safely to the owl, he will take care of your wing!

game info : It's a small game of only 3 playable rooms. I hope it will be a funny game, and I try to make the puzzles not to easy, and give the player an enjoying play. Resolution is 320x240, and backgrounds are drawn with Graphics Gale, and The Gimp.

I'm just finished with the 3 backgrounds, and now I can concentrate on character animation, and objects for the game. I have to start scripting though, but all puzzles are thought out! Game will be finished somewhere next week, probably!

I loved your penguin, and I really like ravens, so I am looking forwart to it and I am optimistic it will be a nice little game again. GOod luck Minimi!

Ooh, another game bout animals, yay! Sounds like it'll be a funny little game. It was almost hard to see the robbery element, that's a clever way to interpret the rules.
The background looks very nice, though the purple-ish sky is just a bit too strange. But it can add an interesting aspect all the same .

Sounds good.Ã, 

Thanks, but how did you found out about the music in the game?? :p

Woot! Your still remembering the penguin, hehe. I'm really glad that that game turned out so well! I only have some problems in how to implement puzzles, without too much work well.. im sure it'll turn out well.

Hey Ginny! I thought the same... I don't like all the robbery stuff... and somehow all my games turn out childish, untill now!
I agree with you on the background, and I have already improved the backgrounds alittle bit. just haven't updated the picture :

I'll get back to work on the game...

This game sounds nice. I liked Puddy The Penguin, I think this game will be good, too.

I'm still busy with scripting, but I'll release this game, today, or tomorrow! So I have no time for beta-testers...
