I give up.
As ManicMatt said; it is not possible for us to reach the files that are in your harddrive.
If you want us to see them; then you have to UPLOAD them (you know what 'upload' means, do you?).
Edit: I give up, too.
I actually tried the file in that server.
Have no idea what format it is , and nor does Windows XP. :-/
I think that this game is even shorter than the masterpiece "Are we there yet?", or the "I want to take a pie"... I might even vote for the game on the awards later on... ;)
i have reason to believe that .wps is some sort of word processed file.
i'm not sure at all though.
I suggest to lock this threat
It's a Microsoft Works® text document with a picture of gray hound dogs and a link to a C:\ drive. So it only works for the guy who made the game (which is Dragonslash by Prashant Mahendran).
Man, this thread has been a good piece of laugh for me ;D.
A good way to start a day work.

Dragonslash was made with only images from paint.
Oh man! I'm beginning to think this game really IS made from images of paint, AND NOTHING ELSE!
Well Prashant, if hiring a hacker to access your hard drive and getting the files (And then deleting them all if my hacker is evil) then so be it! There's a point there somewhere, and that is to be glad we can't access your hard drive, for people would do harm to it.
ok now the file is uploading....
....
....
....
....
....
still uploading
....
....
And I cant get my screenshot on a post...
Ok I have got a new site, I have uploaded the file. Try it now please, and leave you comments.Screenshots are on the site.

His erm.. screenshots.
So did the game work???
I think the expression in Matt's avatar tells it all :)
Prashant,
1. You left debug mode on
2. That walkcycle is up there with yodaman's!
3. I can talk to the guy with the blue spotty robe who says to collect jewels, but I can't leave the room...
4. Given the graphic quality, why is it necessary to use 800x600 resolution?
Man, this ranks right up there with that "Phyco" (sic) game, what was it... "Trapped With Hell" or something? That was classic. Where is that thread?
SSH, "walk" to the furthest left of the first screen to go into the next room. What, how could you not know? Ah right, there was no indication to the player. Perhaps a door or an arrow or something Prashant?
The speech can't be skipped, which is annoying as I am a fast reader, so I'm left waiting for the speech to skip itself.
I got as far as finding a key that will inevitably unlock that locked door, but my interest wained.
fine, fine, its not THAT great or anything,
ok- just so you know.
Name:Prashant
Age:13
not a computer technician or anything
first game
So now i am gonna start a new post which is proper and explains well.
Hello this is Prashant here, with the new game Dragonslash. This game was made by Prashant using the ags game engine, and paint images. :o WHAT THE HELL! you would be thinking, HOW STUPID , THERES NOTHING HERE THAT MAKES ME WANT TO PLAY THIS GAME!
Ahhh, you see, if you get it, get 'immersed' in the game. Get juiced up by the colour. Find the real adventure in it. Find the mystery...Get into the game! The game- the introduction to the world of Dragonslash, its merely the begginning, :o becomes :-\ then :)

How was my game?
I tried a bit of your game, but I don't know which background I go to after 13, I tried 14, i will try 12 next. But i like the drawings!
i tried to understand the fr4ench, that was alright, but i didnt know how to get ot of the room with the guy in the car. ;D
Please, try to edit your older post as opposed to double posting, especially when they're just a few minutes apart.
Moreover, you may edit the subject of the first post of this thread to include the name of your game, not just " My game is here." :P
new advertisement
note:I changed it to less resolution, and the character walks a lot faster.Thanks for the comments.
A little splash of colour in this huge world of adventure mixed together with a mystery!
DRAGONSLASH
The new ags engine game by neelhound.

You can adventure around, then get captured by a dragon. You can venture through the city, and even go to the mall. You can go to the destroyed bank, and take up a job handing out fliers in a village. But in the village you will meet a ghost, and a troubled woman with a mystery for you to solve.
come on...

Well, here's the problem... that's not going to happen. Ã, I know that everyone has come off as harsh, but in honesty, they speak wisdom. Ã, Don't take any of this personally.
You're excited about the world that you've created. Ã, That much is obvious. Ã, Your excitement isn't enough to sell the idea to us, though. Ã, You speak of Paint graphics as if the idea is revolutionary; as if it's your selling point. Ã, Well, the brutal truth is that it's hardly that.
Paint is the program that people whip out when they want to crank out a picture of something without investing anything in it. Ã, See the MSPaint game in the Competitions forum... it says it all.
Nothing about this game matches your enthusiasm here on the forum. Ã, That main character should be the link between us and the world, but the truth is that it's just too generic and uninspired design-wise to make us care about how many dragon jewels we can find. Ã, I realize that character design is not easy, but tell the truth... did you spend more than ten minutes on that drawing and the walk cycle combined?
Rushing your ideas out of your head past your hands so quickly will not do them any service. Ã, I'm sorry... that's just how it is.
:D;Dok then whatever ;D ;)
People take time to give you valuable criticism and you respond with "whatever :D"?
And: there's a link called "Modify" in the top right of your every post, use it.
Don't clutter up your own thread with the same generic description of the game, modify the initial post.
I think this game is a awesome idea. You must be the first person to think of using ms paint images. OMG! LOL! I can't wait to download it! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
1:Saying 'whatever' dosnt mean that I didnt read and take in the comments. I actually did and I changed it. I said whatever as to say 'ok', instead of starting an argument.
2:thanks Skyfire1, try out the game and leave your comments. If it gets boring, tell me, i wont get offended.
Dude. Not that I'm offended... I'm not...
But "whatever" means "please assume that I have discarded your words entirely," not "Okay."
You're not going to start an argument with me; of that I can assure you. If you have a problem with anything I said, tell me. We can discuss things rationally.
skyfire that seemed a tad sarcastic!
I sense something; a presence that I have not felt since ...
OMG, this topic is 3 pages now !!!
This game must be something !
Must... download... it...
No, I can continue resisting.
remember, anyone whos downloaded it at all and actually played it, plz leave comments here-new forums r comin up

Skyfire, stop acting like a 13 26 year old...
Please, if all you want to do is make fun of someone, don't bother posting, how many times do we have to tell you?

i agree, i think neelhound has borne enough. After all he is actually putting efforts...

And please, for the love of god, don't quote the whole. friggin'. previous. post.
This is by far the most irritating forum-habit ever, and yet, there are *still* people doing it.
Edit: Check out the absolutely hilarious two posts below. I'm still rolling on the floor, laughing. As it is, I can barely type. Ow, my stomach hurts. The hilariousness. (We can only hope that petaglair's going to edit my quote in his post, so this hilarious joke doesn't get ruined.)

What does that mean?
Come on Skyfire, it's just broken english!
Translation:
Today is not the day you change this good, and old, irritating world.
EDIT: I believe saying "Meh" on the internet is just like saying "whatever".
Heh. This is amusing.
A segue however: in America "whatever" is something of an insult I am told. In Australia, and possibly places elsewhere it means a kind of passive, go-with-the-flow type remark like neelhound intended.
There. Resume humour....... now!
I kinda wonder how you were adable to make this game in the first place... if you couldn't even understand how to post an image. :-\
Well, AGS *is* famous for its ease of use.
To Manicmatt:
Oh god! my english broken!
how could i go on now?
thanx to point this out, i should now fix it before posting again....Otherwise i will get scolded.
I got kinda busted on the forum some years ago for being a faker, some said that my english was too perfect for a french person, and consequently i would have lied about everything i had been saying.
Now, you know i'm french for real. And this is not today when it will change!
But about the whatever thing. Even with my broken english, i got the feeling Neelhound's "whatever" is not misused and not to be upset about.
Pétaglair
Don't take offence when i said that, your english is good, but it was just that the words weren't in a natural order, which confused Skyfire. (I don't know how though)
I used to be able to order drinks and meals in french, from learning it at school, but I've been to France about twice since then and have lost the words.. I think some of it is still in my head somewhere.. whenever I hear french things ring a bell but they're distant.
umm....what an odd branch of off-topic discussion.
I was under the impression that skyfire was just continuing petaglair's "joke"
Yeah, but I post this message and Neelhound's game has had more posts than Mordelles' latest! (But for all the wrong reasons)

Well, AGS *is* famous for its ease of use.
Something tells me AGS is a little too easy to use. CJ should probably make it a little harder to use so 11 year olds will think twice before pimping "paint images."
And thus discouraging all those people that need to muck around before they go on to making great games? People need to learn the ropes, skyfire.
I haven't said anything about this game so far because it's so obviously a first game. I don't think much of neelhound's behaviour on this thread, especially the first page, but as a game maker I can't judge him by his very first game. Everyone has made crappy first games. Some people get excited and post them and get criticism that helps them move on to greatness. Some just squirrel it away and learn for themselves. Either way is good.
I have no qualm at all with "11 year old pimping paint images", as you put it, regardless of whether that is the case here or not. Let's face this, this whole board and this whole site is like a big artist's studio. People come in, people try things out, people finish their works. Some are great, some are crappy, some people give up soon and some keep on going until they achieve greatness, some come with greatness and leave with nothing... it's just the way it is. And first games, like first paintings and first novels and first sculptures and whatever, are bound not to be as good. But HEAVEN FORBID the artist be daunted by the tools. Heaven forbid.
Anyway, neelhound said he's made the player character walk faster. See? He's already learned something important. That's the whole point of first games.
to manicmatt:
no offense taken. It was just funny to read "broken english" as if my english got actually broken by accident at this particular moment. Small things can make ma laugh as a non-english-speaking person.
Anyway i fixed my english with glue and now it should be ok for some days hopefully.
Pétaglair
hey prashant :)
hi random guy funny i should find u here lol ;D
Wanted to download, but there's nothing at the site. Looks like its gone.
Its like ed the feel good rabbit all over again :P
Anyone else remember that "gane"?
This gane cant be the best gane in the world! Can it..?
I don't have to enjoy a game to know it's important that somebody spent the time on it and probably learnt from it. Skyfire's comment is typical, since he'll say anything to see another flame war come to fruition, but it inherently wrong.
Congrats on your first game, neelhound! May you make more and may they improve with each and every single one of them :)
Last time I hear,d skyfire was "banned" (although I know that CJ is against banning and all that... dunno what's true...). Either way skyfire hasn't shown up for days! Let's try to forget about this "kid"...
I'm pretty sure that I posted inthis thread about the game... :)
Well I congratulate him on making a game, and hope his work improves. :D
