Hello everybody! I am wondering if the game play style (Point, click, watch) in Phantasmagoria 2: A Puzzle of Flesh could be replicated within AGS. I hope to make an FMV game with my friends, but have been hindered due to the lack of programming knowledge. Basically, I want to replicate this style.

Hi Willdon, it is definitely possible with AGS. I was originally going to make my game using that style of play. But decided to use something more interactive. Check out my banner and you will see :)
OMG! FINALLY! :o :o :o :D :) :o :o :o
Someone who loves FMV games! i thought I was alone! haha. your project looks GREAT! Very promising! Something I would most def. pay money for.
A modern HD FMV game. Something I have been looking forward to for years, but to no avail...until now! lol
How would i actually implement my videos into AGS?
There are two ways you can go about it. By encoding your videos into the Ogg Theora video codec and by using PlayVideo command (its in the AGS help file).
Also if you want FMV during gameplay (like an sprite/entity) you can use the Ogg Theora plugin for AGS which can be found here.

Thanks Willdon, the AGS engine is quite powerful and you make any type of adventure game with it.
