Hey everyone! Back after a long time gone from these boards!

Dear AGS Community!

It's been, I don't know how long, since I've been posting, or browsing these boards, but I guess some people from years back will still recognize me, so I'd like to give a tiny update on how things have been.
You might know my from games like Puddy Penguin, or Ralph The Raven.... those games are still floating around somewhere on the net.

The reason I came looking here, was because I just found out about the Dreamfall Chapters being in production, a sequel to my favorite adventure game.

Well then, I'm doing great. I've been studying to become a primary school teacher, but eventually gave up on that, and decided to focus on games after all! In September I will start at studying Game Development, and I'm working at the moment at some projects of 3D Games, within Unity. I became somewhat better at 3D modelling, and scripting in C# & Javascript, which I'm using within Unity3D Engine. My goal is to produce Educational Games/Applications for Schools, Businesess & love to create a great Adventure Game still.

Furthermore, I've got a great job in sales, in which I'm doing great, and live in Hilversum, where I enjoy life to the fullest. I've had my ups and downs, girlfriends here and there, and my own little adventures in life, and at the moment, happy single, but still married with my PC

Next to that, I started working out at the gym 3x a week, taking care of my muscles. Giving guitar lessons, and fooling around with music. I do alot more, but let's keep it with this for now

Hope to have a warm welcome back, and gonna now select one of the released AGS games to play.

Big hugs, Minimi

Welcome back!

Minimi! I remember you and your modelling (I think you even made a tutorial on 3D modelling at some point? I remember a staircase in a room

) and your bird game

. Nice to see you again!

Welcome back Minimi, sounds like life is treating you well

Minimi · Sat 20/07/2013 23:54:56

Thanks, everyone! I saw a PM of you, Chicky, from a few months ago, lol!

BTW, I'm working at the moment on a game-project, which is gonna be somewhat of a 3D action/adventure game. So I might post soon some work in progress on it, though it's not really an AGS project.

I can give a hint so far, that it's gonna be setting in a balloon world, with balloon characters

Abit like Little Big Adventure.

So cool!
If it's not a secret, what engine do you use?

It's not a secret!
I'm using Unity3D

Wt the moment busy with lots of concept art & sketches, and just started modelling the main-character. Gonna be alot of work for doing everything myself. I will probably end up making a working demo, and then start looking for a team.

Cool! Best of luck to you and keep us updated :-)
