I'm in!
yay!

(okay I admit my post is kind of useless

but I just don't know anything about pentacles

)

I've got the story for my entry pretty much all worked out now, and I seem to have written a story with all villians and no heros... is that acceptible in the rules? I still got time to change things, if a hero be required...

nope!: I (heart) HellVis! I also really like the angular style you're using here, it's very distinctive.

FruitTree: Glad you're joining us-- hope you enjoy yourself.

Davy: Yes, of course, that's just fine. Out of idle curiosity, is this such a successful set of villains that they've actually killed off all the heroes...? *g*

Creed Malay · Fri 12/03/2004 21:34:00

Heh. It's set in movie-world-crime-land kind of territory - hoods and gangsters and proffesional gamblers and bent cops and double crosses and mafiosos, and hitmen with tourettes syndrome...
Fun fun fun...

I'm done with my MAGS! Wooh.

You can download Evil Enterprises here:

I'm on my way to post it in the Announced Games forum.

Enjoy!

Just one entry so far but we're getting closer to March 28th - the deadline of this month's competition.

The voting will begin on early Monday - in about 60 hours from now

So you still have the weekend for creation. Good luck!

Gregjazz · Fri 26/03/2004 22:12:57

Well, if nobody else enters, voting should be really easy.

just a little over a day left!!!

Lazy Z · Sat 27/03/2004 11:22:59

I've almost finished my game, but there's this really nasty bug that causes the game to crash if you move the mouse cursor to the bottom of the screen, and I dunno if I'll have the time to fix this, 'cuz my free time is almost nonexistant...

Should I release it anyway? Besides that bug, the game is almost finished. If this sounds like a really n00bish question, well, that's because I've never released a game before.

Lazy z
What error message do you get......?

Does it say what line has the problem.??

Creed Malay · Sat 27/03/2004 14:37:17

I do not think I will finish mine in time, which makes me sad. Boo.

Davy

Lazy Z · Sat 27/03/2004 17:57:11

Well, the error message is this:

(Global script line 134)
Error: SetGUIPosition: co-ordinates must lie in range (0,0) - (RMWID,RMHIT)

And the line from my global script is:
SetGUIPosition(TEXT, xpos, ypos);

I'm using the Beneath a Steel Sky template, by the way. I apologise for posting this here, I should have made a thread in the technical forum long ago, but I haven't had the time to do so...

Czar · Sat 27/03/2004 19:13:15

Release it now, you'll have time to vote lat0rz

Jippie! My first game for public release:
http://members.fortunecity.se/matzyboy/
(Click "download crypt.zip(798kb)")

It's called crypt, and it's my entry in this MAGS competition!

I haven't written any help file so:
left click = walk
double left click = interact/use/pick up/whatever
right click= look
inventory comes down from the top of the screen, together with save/load/quit/info about CJ...

While using an inventory item left=use, right = release inventory cursor

Enjoy!
*MÃ¤tzyboy sets off for the completed games forum*

Great game Geoffkhan! Nice jazzy music! Funny voices, Evil reminds me of Mr. Bean when he talks.

Lazy Z · Sun 28/03/2004 10:51:52

Argh, finally. After many hardships, here is Dark Star (Vol. 0.9). Don't play it

Nice game lazyZ! The most annoying sound of walk I've ever heard though.

I found the story a little hard to grasp and the puzzles were way too simple!

Well done for a first game any way! Looking forward to seing more in the future!

A bug:

When i leftclicked on the elevator buttons the cursor disappeared and nothing happened.

***

Nope!: That game sure was a laugh! Neat graphics! The puzzles were too easy though, not much of a choice what to do. Good game!

nope! · Sun 28/03/2004 13:47:22

MÃ¤tzyboy : your game is cool: I like the graphics

About my "game": I started a MAGS game but I wasn't ready.

I made another "game" in 10h...only because there's only one entry for the MAGS competition....how could it be a competition if there's only one entry?

Anyways, I love Geoffkhan's work (I discovered AGS games thanks to the "Apprentice")....he deserves to win

Klaus · Mon 29/03/2004 08:09:22
