And can someone confirm that the 1st one in the 1st banner is indeed the game 1213?
I haven't played the game in a while, but I'm pretty damn sure it's from 1213.
Then I guess it's 1213.

What's really funny to me is that the banner I identified is the only one that I could have identified any of the games, and I was somehow able to identify them all! := (The Ben Jordan game was the only one there that I've never played, since I hate the Ben Jordan franchise)



Actually I have no idea what it's about, I just know that Dualnames did that "interview" in the fashion of an AGS game with Ben Jordan, and so if Dual loves it so much, then clearly I must be opposed to it, as I hate everything that Dualnames loves.


Actually, I love everything that Dualnames loves, what am I saying? Why haven't I played Ben Jordan yet? WHY?!?

Edit: 10 AM and I haven't slept. Time for bed methinks. Oh, and although I didn't pinpoint the exact title, I'll still claim it for my ability to identify a franchise which I know nothing about.

I believe that game in the 3rd image is either a game or a demo by Jetxl...but I'm too lazy to do more than a cursory search right now...

Didn't it used to say the games on the mouseover script?

It could be Catacombic?

Wow Def, had never played that one before but I just checked it for a few minutes and indeed: you're right, it's Catacombic. Thanx, both of you.
All games from the 5 AGS-game-banners are listed now  :)

HILARIOUS POST. Also how the hell do I fit in there ? :D

How about changing the banner's link to http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=44084.msg586928#msg586928 (Arj0n's post with the link list)?

It's currently pointing to the games page but I can't imagine many people getting there that way...?

At the very least, this should become a sticky thread.

Well, I do.

Babar

When I'm surfing the forums it makes a handier and less cumbersome method to get to the games rather than hunting around the line of text on top for the "Games". So yeah...I do too :P.

Although this does seem a valid thing to have as an AGSWiki page...

I do, it's actually the only way I use to get to the game page.

A sticky thread might be a good idea, especially since there are plans to add more new game banners in the (near?) future.
Besides that, the questions "what games are in the banner" seems to pop up quite regularly.

Wyz

D'oh, I just though of a solution, it is quite obvious: a tooltip. That way the names of the games would popup when someone hovers their cursor over it. There is some scripting involved because of the randomness, but that can be fixed I'm sure. :D

Well, can you write a custom tooltip like that in JavaScript? I hate JavaScript. I wish it would burn and die. :P But If you could write some code to generate a tooltip in JavaScript then you could use the PHP to generate the JavaScript. I imagine it wouldn't be all that difficult.

Wyz

well actually most browsers will support this:
Code: ags
<img src="..." title="the text you want to show up">
Life is like an adventure without the pixel hunts.

monkey0506

Oh, you meant a single one. I thought you meant a different one for each game. The reason I suggested JavaScript is because the banner constitutes a single image, so the normal title attribute wouldn't work that way unless you just listed all of them (which that would actually be far easier :P).
