Useful AGS Basic Tutorials for Beginners

[Eon_Star]

Hello everyone,

I created some tutorial videos to help out the beginners of AGS. My intention is to help create their games using AGS.

Some topics are:

Mirrors, Separate Region Walk Sounds, Dial Pad Puzzle, Condition Based Dialog, Customized Cursors, Split Room Functions, Show All Hotspots in a Room Function, Enhanced Exits.


And of course a tutorial game called "Bob's Quest", where I made a game from scratch to show the steps of making a game with AGS.

Here is the link to the tutorials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpxMdWTaW2s&list=PLdlsMVDmowzSkFXAwnV_dOXjrSqYsjU15

The game files you can find here:

I hope the tutorials will help beginners to understand the basics of AGS.

Cool, thanks for doing this.

I agree with @Cassiebsg.

Those tutorials should have more visibility on the forums somehow.

If you are a complete beginner these tutorials are the best way to start with AGS in 2024.

@Eon_Star Thanks for the time and effort you put into this!

Yes. I agree. Because I started without much knowledge. Some of the mods must be re-edited. I thought the beginners should see how the AGS script works in general. I hope to be of help to everyone here.

I admit some tutorials may look a bit difficult but I always share the finished game file, so you can see what I did and maybe you can use the same/ similar codes.

Thanks for your nice replies.
