IAB - 00: The (official) Game

[FSi++]

It was my very first AGS project. Needless to say it was one big mess. But I really like its idea, and the way it was intended to be implemented (but wasn't because I had no AGS experience at the moment).
About month ago I was digging around my old hard drive, unearthing various long forgotten treasures. Amongst these was IAB: The (official) Game.

Screenshots are located later in this post so as to interest you in reading rather than looking at pictures I drew.


FAQ:
Q: What is IAB?
A: He's hero of this game but not only it. He started as a hero of my short story, which I intended to turn into something bigger. But I didn't, even though public reaction was good. Instead I wanted to make a game (because digging around my hard drive I've found an apparently great tool for that - AGS 2.55). Here it is, more than three years in development, yay.

Q: So, it is based on your short story?
A: Yes and no, it was intended to be a prequel to a series of short stories (hence "00" in the title, as 01 would be the first story).

Q: Can I read the story?
A: Yes and no, it's available freely on my LiveJournal, but it's in Russian and I have no time to translate it . Contact someone else to dig it up and translate it for you.


And now for a couple of screenshots:



Demo:
Yeah, as I've started working on this a while back, I do have something to show you!

If you can't unpack this game, then sorry, you don't meet the required brain specifications for this game .

And the most important part:
As you may see, I used some crappy tunes as soundtrack (except title song, which is great and which I like). SO-O, if you want to write some musical score and has nothing better to do, pm me at once! Or e-mail, whatever do you prefer. If your mail gets past google's spam filter, I'll definitely read it!

Play this game. It;s awesome. The russian joke will make you laugh for hours.

Oh yeah, and anybody who can make a better animation cycles than I did are welcome too.

edit: That means pretty much everyone here .

A nice start, but did it really take you three years to make a two-room demo?

p.s. the russian joke was genious

No it didn't

I've got more than that, but it has such an awful scripting so I'm basically redoing the thing. And this demo is merely a first step to a world domination "medium-length game" at least.
