A gag game of sorts that simulates the process of popping bubble wrap. Obviously NOT an adventure game! More info is available on the Itchio page.
Features:
Most realistic bubble popping simulation on the PLANET!
Most realistic graphics ever in a video game! That's because they're REAL PHOTOS!
Playable in 14 languages!
Real sounds of bubble wrap being popped recorded from REAL bubble wrap!
System requirements:
Comparable to Crysis

Ah man, my little girl is going to absolutely LOVE this!
Why on earth has no-one produced it before?
As a sequel, can you please create a TENSION SHEET SIMULATOR?
Excellent idea! All I have to do then is replace the background graphic and CHEAP SEQUEL! :grin:
I have to say that I was disappointed the background graphics didn't change at all though - surely we should have both popped and unpopped bubbles?!?! (nod)
Can you imagine how intensive graphics like that would be? Why, you'd need a computer from 2100 at least!
Sheesh CaptainD, this one is huge leaps and bounds over Bubble Wrap Popping Simulator 2012. You're going to have to wait for Bubble Wrap Popping Simulator 2014 for next-gen graphics like that.
It's just a shame that computer technology hasn't been able to match the breathtaking advances in the science of bubble popping itself.
My graphics card melted while trying to play this. 10/10
This game is absolutely action "packed". 10/10
This game was too short... it was all over in a Jiffy.
Too short? It's as long as you play it for! If you play for an hour, then it has an hour of gameplay! If you play it for 400 hours, then you'll die!

Dude! http://www.virtual-bubblewrap.com/popnow.shtml
But cool to see it done in AGS, got a good laugh out of it.
An "insane mode" would be fun too: http://www.virtual-bubblewrap.com/popnow-insane.shtml
Also need to get some real bubble wrap tomorrow.
Man, so many great sequel ideas!
Pure Genious!
(laugh)
Good concept and fun game. I also played in Arabic (don't know much but enough to understand). I have two questions regarding your game:
1) Did you take photographs yourself?
2) When you tried to write it in Arabic, did the AGS Editor joined the words correctly?
The reason I am asking Ques#2 is that I want to translate "Gray" into Urdu (whose script writing is similar to Arabic) and want some information about AGS Editor regarding this.
Somewhere, probably in central Europe, this is going to sell millions.

You didn't get my joke :(

Adeel S. Ahmed: The hand is my hand.
I didn't use the font system, all the text is a bitmap image. (sprite) The images with text included on them were created with GIMP, which is a unicode application. Due to limitations of the current font system, I do not think it would be possible to display Arabic text that way, however, I think it would be possible with clever use of sprites. Really, it depends on how you are presenting the text, I suppose.
"Gray" contains descriptive text i.e approx. 1000 lines. It seems like I'll have to ditch the idea because using sprites as text lines wouldn't help in this case...
Thanks for your reply. :)
I got stuck at the first room. I tried to pixelhunt every pixel in the game, but no help! Please help me out!
For as far as I got 10/10!
Spoiler
In the bottom left corner, there is a stop sign with the local word for quit (hopefully) on it. Move your hand (ingame) over it so that the palm is on it, then click on it. Point the finger at the local word for (hopefully!) yes and you'll unlock the game's ending!
HOW IS THIS GAME FREE?? OMG I'm gonna miss work playing this!!!
Important notice: Cogeco is terminating their web hosting on August 15. As such, the game's original website will no longer be available after the 14th. (Eastern time) As such, if you want to enjoy the game's website, please do so before then.
I haven't gotten around to uploading it to Itchio or anywhere else really yet, so I'd better get off my ass and do that soon. Itchio will probably also be the home for any games I make in the future. (And I do still want to poop out a sequel to this dumbass game one day. Just because.)
Notice: game now available on Itchio.
