sorry for ask a noob question here..but i want to know if any way i can create a word games using ags editor like bookworms,scramble,word link or maybe wheel of fortune games?
If you are wanting multiplayer with users on separate computers, it would be tricky to implement. Single-player AI would also be tricky. You would probably need to implement a dictionary, which I can think of a few ways to do (the text parser for instance, but that's a bit more involved than a normal parser for a game). Overall, it seems rather kludgy.
AGS isn't really meant for word games, but it is within the realm of possibility. So, yes, it's possible, but I'm sure there's other tools which would be way better suited for it.
Yeah...i agree with you mate..AGS stand for adventure games right?but i'm sure the editor have a hidden tools to make it happen,although they need a dictionary to be included in the games too..
sorry for ask this,but i want to make a awesome games using AGS editor without having to use a different games engine..for me AGS Editor is a great great great games engine that I had never seen before..
p.s - sorry for my bad ENGLISH again.. :-)
It would take a very experienced AGS scripter to implement a decent word type game although a simple game is possible.
With hard work you could do something, but your efforts may prove fruitless and time consuming for you at this stage.
Once you've got enough AGS knowledge and scripting then it could be something you could work towards.
So that's mean i can make a simple word games instead a complicated word games using AGS right??
Is it possible i can make a hidden object game style too?
Yeah, a basic word game should be doable. And hidden object games should be easy.
Hi
if you read the help manual in AGS you will find most of what you need in terms of how to script to enable you to make a basic word game like how to make objects visible/invisible, clicking on objects/hotspots etc etc
Good luck
oh really?it's already been told in the AGS manual,huh?
or i miss something?which part?
I'm referring to the script elements not an actual game.
Arjunaz78, the problem is that you want to build something rather complex but don't even know how to start.
So at this point, we can either provide you with ready-made code you probably will have a hard time understanding or fitting to your needs or you can shelve the word game idea for now and create a simpler game.
steptoe was merely pointing out that in theory, everything you need is available. Putting it together is another issue and of course the manual doesn't explain how to do every single kind of minigame, but there's no need to get overly sarcastic.
Thanks mate..i know the help manual have a valuable info that will guide me to make this happen,i will try it although it is difficult & impossible :)
THX.
