Hey there

names chris, just downloaded ags a few days ago and iv been reading the tutorials and im slowly geting the hang of it (keyword slowly).

anyway i have an idea for a game and id like you guys to give me some imput. Ever since i played the first Liesure Suit Larry game iv loved adventure games spacificly sierra and lucas arts style ones so when i found ags i was like hell ya so i just gotta read all the tutorials and all that but anyway back to the game idea

i pretty young (18) and i think i have a fairly good sense of humor so what i wanna do is an adventure thats somthing like the leisure suit larry games but based on a teen not a middle aged man i know sierra's working on a new game based on larrys nephew but this game wont be related to that really other than the fact that there will be lots of rude humor (but funny) and 1 of the goals of the game will be to get laid wich i know is a common goal of almost all 18 year olds

however this wont be the main goal

im still working on that along with the story line, heres what im thinking so far.the game will take place on a weekend so i fugured a good title would be The weekend kinda lame maybe but oh well the main character whos nickname is smokey (take a guess why) has just broken up with his slutty girlfriend so hes in serious need of some good poontang and basicly just wants to have an awesome weekend with no restrictions now that hes single and doesnt have his gf breathing down his neck

throuout the game hell have to avoid his B**ch of a mother whos always naging him to get a job and his ex whos still tryin to controll him even tho there not going out anymore like i said tho im still working on the story line iv got some pretty good ideas brewing in my lil head but i need some input from other ppl too all i know is that the end result should be smokey getting a fine peace of ass along with the main goal (wich might be puting togeather a house party, not sure) and basicly just having one of the most crazy and fun weekends of his young life.

Now as far as the art part of the whole thing i havnt picked up a pencil in a few years so im not the greatest artist im not completely garbage eather though so ill be drawing the characters myself but i suck at making backgrounds so i was thinking about taking backgrounds from games like day of the tentacle and sam & max then editing them new colours/objects ect. because i love the style those games have and for my first time that would probably be the eaiest thng to do i already have a front view of the main character that im pretty happy with

k so what im looking for from u guys is ur input and sugestions on things like puzzles and maybe a few sugestions on the story line because as of right now its a lil skectchy but all in all i think that this will be a reallly cool game that teens and hopefully ppl of other ages will find funny and fun to play especially if u enjoyed the larry games as much as i did, like i said i have a pretty good sense of humor so it should be pretty funny. so for people my age think about what would make a cool weekend and some puzzles that go with the theme and for older ppl think back to when u were my age and let me know what u would consider entertaing in a game like this thanks and i hope i get some replys

i found out how to post pics heres the main character and some backgrounds iv been working on

this is the main character i that i drew i think hes ok

this is a background i drew myself like i said im not that good at backgrounds

this is a edited day of the tentacle background it looks alot diff then the origonal

Could you maybe use some paragraphs and full stops! I got about a quarter of the way down and I REFUSE to read anymore!

smokealot · Mon 26/04/2004 23:21:31

I think it's a good idea but you really need to make your main character look older, that lad doesn't look ready for Pokemon, let alone getting laid.

your right

thanks for the tip i think he looks better like this, do u?... im still lookin for some sugestions on puzzles thats the bigest problem im having or maybes somones made a tutorial on puzzles?

yeah the idea is great, some people forget that games like LSL, took Adventure Gamming into another more comic (and rude.. yet deadly funny) level.. Keep up the good work.

But for your first proyect, my first recomendation is not to aim too high.. and to make things simple as you can. Dont try to expect a LSL type game from yourself it will only lead to frustration.

After all even the greats first started like all of us.

Man, this looks kinda funny. The main character totally reminds me of a good friend of mine exactly. Kinda weird.
BTW I agree with Sinister in that you should'nt expect to much from yourself from your first game. Just have fun and try to learn from your mistakes. Looks entertaining so far hope you finish it
