Title: Silver
Post by: on Fri 09/04/2004 14:06:36
Silver is my first little game with ags, so don't expect too much.
I tried out some features and costumized the GUI, so that I
can use it for my next game.

Have fun!

VERY nice graphics. Love the interface, and the character's clothes look amazing.

Don't use QuitGame(1); at the end, because if the player chooses "Play" and not "Quit" there's nothing else to do in the game. Try QuitGame(0);

A few notes on the translation (Since I saw you had a German URL, I played the German version first):

In the German version, you might want to translate the verbs as well. "Use Fenster" looks very odd.

There are some minor mistakes in your English translation, but most of the dialogue can still be understood without a problem. However, "Meine Mitbewohner haben mich eingeschlossen" does NOT translate as "My friends included me" ("include" CAN translate as "einschliessen" but in the meaning of "beinhalten, in etwas einbeziehen, bei etwas dabeihaben").
The sentence you're looking for is something along the lines of "My roommates locked me in."

Thank you for your criticism and your hints.
You are right, my translation is terrible and I will
correct it.
For my next game I have to get some help of
somebody that speaks a better English.
