There are over 120 sounds, animated eyeball and hand icon when hovering over hotspots to go along with the hotspot GUI. Loads of animations, loads of views, 60 inventory items and a large house to explore along with a UFO.

Can you help the visitor phone home, can you help Danny do his chores before his brother beats him senseless ?

There's also an extra cutscene at the end of the game if you manage to pull off a great prank on your brother.

Intriguing. This is the second AGS game in a year to be called 'The Visitor' about something crashing to earth. The other one was cancelled, so all the best getting this one out!

@Mods , I was not aware of this, I searched the games database and didn't find anything with the visitor, but I didn't search through games in production, I hope I'm not stepping on any toes or I'll change the title name. At the moment, it appears the visitor will impact earth in the near future.

@cianty , Thanks for the lift, as this is my first time around the block, it's good to know my backgrounds are acceptable. I had an old computer, I was using MS paint from 6 years ago, I just got a new computer 2 days ago when my motherboard went. Scared the hell outta me, thought I lost everything. I'm still using MS paint to finish it, but at least this one has got a few new added features.

First time drawing on a computer?!?  Those backgrounds are really not at all bad.  Looking forward to the finished game!  ;D

Backgrounds are really beautiful! And I love being able to play more than one character in a game! Looking forward to this one ;)

Thanks for the kind words, I'm pushing to finish this game as soon as possible, but without neglecting the quality. Things are moving along pretty quickly.

Here is a another screen shot

This is a great learning process for me, backgrounds, animations, scripting, story etc.....  But it does not feel like a first game for sure, I am putting a ton of love into this, probably too much for my first game.

Nice, clean art style on this one.  And that skyline really brings back some memories..

This looks very nice, good luck with that.
Just so you know, there's already an adventure/puzzle game called 'The visitor' (http://www.kongregate.com/games/zeebarf/the-visitor)...

First off, that is awesome, great little game. Now I want to start over...lol.

At first this started out by me stumbling onto the AGS website and convincing myself I might be able to make a game myself, I grew up playing adventure games and was amazed that someone with no experience could do this. I wanted to make a game for my nephew and friends and now I'm hooked.

I certainly don't want to step on anyones toes with the title, it's the least important thing to me at the moment. I can change this if it bothers anyone. I never expected to post this so anyone other than some friends and family could play it. But now I have put so much time and effort into learning AGS and making the game I figured why not share it with everyone.

Thanks again, that was fun

I added a couple new screenies to the first post, The Visitor is progressing nicely and should be done by early September.    :D

I currently look like Golem from the lord of the rings and need sun badly, I will work hard to get this done so I can enjoy SOME of the summer.   :'(

I am already curious for your game and waiting for it.  (http://www.smilie-harvester.de/smilies/Girl-Power/girl20.gif)

It sounds like an interesting story and has really “Nyce” drawings.  8)

Go on like this - who needs the sun ...

Maybe your right, AGS can do lots of things, causing skin cancer is not one of them  ;D

Thanks Mouth for War, I hope people dig the graphics, but most of all I hope everyone likes the game. I just wish I started playing with AGS years ago.....what  a shame  :'(

The Visitor is in it's final stage. I just need need to add a couple of finishing touches. The latest testing has come back pretty clean, The Visitor looks like it will crash land soon.


Last couple pics before the release.

Just played that - great fun!

NickyNyce, your game seems to be rather different, so don't worry about the name too much. Also, it looks great!

Thank you cat...I have been debating if I should change the title. I have a couple more (very nice) people testing and proof reading for me. Once finished, The Visitor should be a week or two away at the most.

The (other) Visitor is a blast. For anyone who didn't play it, they should!!!

@ Ghost....Thanks for the ghostly  blessings...but I'm the one that should be blessing you  ;)
