I've put a limit of 10x10 rooms for now, how far can a player walk without getting bored? You can walk North and South now as well. At the moment it's kind of a treasure hunt, maybe I'll add an objective for tracking someone through the desert. There'll be a few rooms that are handcrafted, these are landmarks so you can check your bearings. Maybe I'll make a map to place these landmarks.

Apart from the electric fence I'm not sure how well I'm going to fit the theme yet, though I've got a good feeling that I'll complete this project (even if not for the competition) it's been two years since I've released something!

I hope you come up with something to show

Oh, great, now I'm thinking of the Ren & Stimpy game "Don't Whizz on the Electric Fence"! Thanks a lot!

I drew up another building in my background last night but it's only still a small percentage of how much work is still to be done.

It was a ton of fun though and looks just like what I wanted so I'm happy.

I'm in (a little bit late, but that's because I was busy with my own game)

VampireWombat · « **Reply #85 on:** 25 Jul 2018, 13:12 »

Oh good. Maybe there will be some competition for Slasher after all.

There were a few complications on trying to get my verb coin to work. I might have thought of a way to make it work at 1:30 or so this morning. Or else it just sounded good then.
If it doesn't work, then I'll either go with a 2 click interface or use the hugely flawed objects as verbs interface I tried in May...

Edit: So far it looks like it'll work.

Here is a screenshot of something that I making for this MAGS:

Whoa, you're probably going to win for art alone.

Here's hoping the gameplay is just as good.

Cassiebsg · « **Reply #88 on:** 26 Jul 2018, 12:08 »

Looking awesome, good luck!

imsomnia212:

If that is the start of your entry then you are off to a good start... Keep it up, we expect great things from you...

And games are more than just a pretty face

Though will it make July's MAG competition deadline on time?

Mandle · « **Reply #90 on:** 26 Jul 2018, 17:24 »

Did a slight bit of work on my pixelart background just to keep me active and interested in my game...

I'm determined with this game to draw all assets myself from scratch... So, a full release could take some time...

The story has advanced in my mind though and has gone into interesting territory...

VampireWombat · « **Reply #91 on:** 26 Jul 2018, 17:40 »

Well, hopefully you'll at least get some kind of release for the deadline. But it's nice to hear that the story has advanced and gone into interesting territory.

I have nothing finished on my game yet. I have kind of figured out a puzzle, but there's still a few elements missing.
I've mostly figured out the art style for the main character. Hopefully I'll get that done today or tomorrow.
Whether I end up using the "verb coin" or not depends on if any of the puzzles I come up with would be worth using it or not.

Slasher · « **Reply #92 on:** 26 Jul 2018, 18:03 »

Mandle: I admire you wanting to draw all the assets yourself from scratch... MAG or not you are no doubt putting your heart and soul into it

VampireWombat: As long as it's bug free and playable bring it on... I generally figure out the implementation of verbs at the start of any game... But good luck

Slasher: Is just a screenshot of a part of the game, not the start. I want to show something, just that.

I actually meant the first thing you show us..not start of game

Good luck with the project.

Just had a fun 2 hours working on a new building's graphics... Still half-done but could turn out well...

+0.5% project completed

Buckethead · « **Reply #96 on:** 28 Jul 2018, 10:18 »

My game is done:
AGS database link

The game turned out quite short but I'm glad I've set a goal for my self and followed through. I hope you enjoy it and please let me know if there are any issues.

Slasher · « **Reply #97 on:** 28 Jul 2018, 11:02 »

Looks like you left Debug enabled...

Text Warning appears in folder.

It seems you have a cutscene that stops (if you press a key) before you know what player needs. Perhaps get rid of cutscene command?

'Harmful' to 'Helpful' perhaps when items used on yourself?

Needs bigger transport area when going to animal as sometimes does not transport..

Dialog options.. If you have coin then dialog option about coin should not be there.

Hope this is helpful?

Really nice graphics and animations..

Thanks for the feedback Slasher. Whoops forgot about debug mode, I'll remove that. You are right about the cutscene cutting the off the objective if you skip it. I'll try to find a nice solution for that.

To answer you question:
