Title: Get Rich or DoTA
Post by: anguruso on Sat 31/07/2010 17:10:40
Hello AGS Buddies,

I would first like to say how much I love AGS. I started working on an adventure game in March 2009 with AGS. It really opened my eyes and ignited a fire inside me to become a great programmer. Since then I've learnt a lot, and have moved on to XNA and C# to make an adventure game for the XBOX 360 Indie Game Store.

My game progress is:
Programming 95%
Sprites 80%
Storyline 80%

So at this late stage of development I thought it would be a good idea to hear feed back from real adventure game enthusiasts. Don't hold back, rip it to shreds. If you should play the game and dislike it, then I really want to hear your feed back. Even if you just say "Didn't like it".

Project name:
Get Rich or DoTA

Brief description:
A young boy, Wilson, is playing DoTA at home, a game his Dad forbids him to play. His Dad unexpectedly returns home early to find Wilson in the midst of a DoTA match.

Dad is so furious, he kicks Wilson out of the house and leaves him on the streets of a ghetto. It is at this exact point you take control of Wilson Cooper, and guide him to riches.

What's DoTA?  Day of the Apendage?

DoTA stands for Defence of the Ancients. It is a very popular Warcraft III map.

Ah, so you are aware that it's DotA and not in fact DoTA.  ;D

I've never been keen on Warcraft 3, so I think the title would alienate people like me who were either put off by WC3 and related concepts, or who had never heard of it!

Interesting game in itself, though!

No, no, no, no. You're all wrong. DotA is Day of the Aliens (http://dotagame.com/). Its creator James is around here sometimes with some tabletized artistries. :=

He wants input on it therefore it is valid.  Stop going off topic, please.
