Post a database link, a brief description and some pictures (thumbnails preferred, here is an excellent FYC post (https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/forums/index.php?topic=56783.msg636599993#msg636599993) from last year).

Do not be shy, by posting your game you are helping the players who will take some of their time to play/nominate/vote!

Usual remarks:

Post your games here before nominations start. The earlier you post, the more time people have to play your game!

Headbanger's Heaven - A Rock & Roll Adventure

DOWNLOAD (https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/games/game/2396/)
Created by Frodo


Jason Miller is a typical teenage rocker.  Loves to stay up all night and sleep all day.  And of course, headbang to his favourite music. 
When he enters a competition in Kerplow Rock Magazine, he never dreamed he would actually win first prize!
But won, he has.  And now he gets to spend the afternoon with his favourite band, Uptempo Maniacs, and get a private performance of their new song. 

He is SO excited!  He still can't believe it, even when the limo driver drops him off at the band's mansion. 
He has his autograph book, all ready to get autographs from all 6 of the band members.  And he CANNOT WAIT for the special private performance. 

But if he thinks he's in for an easy afternoon, he's got another think coming.

Guard Duty (https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/forums/index.php?topic=57137.0)

Guard Duty is a "Pythonesque" comedy adventure that spans two radically different time periods --
the cobbled streets of medieval Wrinklewood and the future dystopia of Neo London.

Replete with cheeky humour, stylised cartoon pixel art, and a story that blurs the lines between fantasy and sci-fi.

Reality-on-the-Norm is a game series where anyone can make a game. This is my installment.

Set in a slightly different dimension to the other RON games, Reality-in-the-Norm follows David Jones at the end of a treasure hunt. See completely different versions of old characters, as well some new ones, as you get to witness a completely different take of Reality.

Whispers of a Machine is a Sci-Fi Nordic Noir that tells the story of Vera, a cybernetically augmented special agent tasked with investigating a string of murders.

These brutal killings obscure a sinister truth, as Vera soon finds ties to a group of fanatics committed to creating an AI superintelligence â€" a pursuit outlawed for nearly a century. Complicating things, a great loss from Vera's past comes back to haunt her, making her question her own sanity and everything she stands for.

As an agent of the Central Bureau, Vera is equipped with an advanced nano-substance called Blue. This rare and sought-after technology allows her to develop superhuman abilities adapted to her psychological mindset. Choose your playstyle and utilize these augmentations to investigate, gather information, and solve puzzles with multiple solutions.

Will Vera's unique blend of skills and intuition be enough to solve the case, or will she discover that things are more ambiguous than they seemed? In this emotionally gripping story with existential twists and multiple endings, Vera's actions will have monumental consequences not only for herself, but for all of humanity...

INVESTIGATION, AUGMENTED:
• Will Vera approach situations with a more empathetic, analytical, or assertive style? Your choices will impact her augmentations and subsequent puzzle solutions.

A POST-AI FUTURISTIC DYSTOPIA:
• Immerse yourself in a realized world of beautifully hand-drawn pixel art design and gorgeous settings influenced by the Nordics.

POINT-AND-CLICK INNOVATION:
• A groundbreaking entry to the point-and-click adventure game genre by the experienced developers of Kathy Rain and The Samaritan Paradox.

PROFESSIONALLY VOICED:
• 4,000+ lines of dialogue with full English voice acting, directed by Wadjet Eye Games' Dave Gilbert.

Ah, why not.

Trails and Traces - The Tomb of Thomas Tew

"It's refreshing to play an indie adventure game that's inspired by the likes of Broken Sword and Gabriel Knight, and not every LucasArts or Sierra game." - GamersPack

"A classic-styled point-and-click adventure that is a genuinely fun experience but at three hours of play time just isn't given enough time to fully spread its wings." - Adventure Gamers

- Inspired by the Broken Sword games, but with an extra dose of humour.
- An interactive jukebox with a few tunes by Because Because!
- Look at everything and do crazy stuff like trying to use a megaphone on unsuspecting people.
- UNPROFESSIONALLY VOICED:  ;)
Lots of different characters voiced by yours truly, plus two characters voiced by our very own Captain D and a couple of people you probably don't know.

For Your Consideration:

Falling Dark is a love story with political undertones. Or possibly a political story with romantic undertones, I'm not sure.

"The year is 1999. The underground culture of the nineties is coming to an end. It is being replaced by a corporate-driven growth of technology and a culture of distraction. In the last dark streets of the city, people stand against this change to preserve their own ways of life. However, as entities start to sell out, it becomes only a matter of time before the underground is divided and conquered.
In the midst of this, is Taylor. A simple person of an older time, struggling to keep their head above water as they're sucked deep into the heart of this conflict, and this division.”

"Falling Dark" is a point and click adventure game with RPG elements, featuring:
- Several branching narrative paths.
- A blend of 'Point and Click' puzzle solving and combat.
- A variety of hidden side-quests and encounters.
- And an original soundtrack.

Also, this game is not rated by the ESRB, but if it were, it would be a hard M.

A bit late, but that teaser trailer had to be done! :D

Planet NOEGATO-BAS is controlled by FUELZ, a giant corporation. FUELZ has pipelines all over the planet and controls around 90% of the trade on the planet. Recently FUELZ shortened workers' wages on planet Noegato-Bas and also introduced a currency they pay it out in, that is only accepted in Rocket Town, the capital and spaceport of Noegato-Bas.

Dim is part of a loose cell of workers united unter the name of MOLOTOV. Their plan is to disrupt business of the FUELZ company and especially to destroy one of their pipelines in the southern district. You play as Dim and your task is to help him reach MOLOTOV's goals!

This game was originally made in a week for the Cyberpunkjam 2019. After the jam was over it evolved into this and was released a while ago, but only now the overdramatizing trailer is done :)
We are now working on getting complete voice acting for the game!

Hi, everyone! We're a little studio called Orbis Tertius Games, founded by two Argentinian expatriates currently leaving in Europe, and this is our first AGS game.

Personal Rocket

"Paranoids are not paranoids because they're paranoid, but because they
keep putting themselves, fucking idiots, deliberately into paranoid situations."

--Thomas Pynchon, Gravity's Rainbow


DOWNLOAD DEMO FOR WINDOWS AND LINUX HERE:
https://lunafromthemoon.itch.io/personal-rocket-demo (https://lunafromthemoon.itch.io/personal-rocket-demo)

The Story, or what the fuss is all about

Six months ago, Cole Fisher was fired from his job as a computer engineer at Cosmic X, a corporation devoted to the betterment of the human race, the pursuit of world peace and eventual space conquest. The reason? He found out what they're really up to. It's quite obvious, you know. They're trying to take over the world.

Since then, Cole has been holed up in his apartment hacking his way through endless labyrinthine connections, gathering as much data as he could to expose the biggest conspiracy in human history.

And now, Cole has had a surreal vision, a religious experience, a close encounter, call it what you like. A Mysterious Messenger has told him it's time to act and bring down Cosmic X once and for all. Or at least that's his take on it.

Personal Rocket is a tale of paranoia and loneliness, the evils of capitalism and too much web surfing, the material world and the Occult universe. Your typical postmodern blues.
