This is just grand. MY MONITOR IS BUST. good thing my computer/hd is still breathing...{note:make backup-copy}
I have to get a new one in time.

 :-\i def out of this one, everything that can go wrong is going wrong, so instead of chuckin the pc out of the window, i'll stand back, take a break and try again next month.....then i'll chuck the pc!

Is anyone else entering this month...?

I hate to think that i slugged my guts out to enter only to find its a one horse race...

fOz.

Well, I am trying my best to enter.

I've tried organising the workload, but it is simply "alot"..

keep in mind that this will be my first AGS game so I am still trying to figure out stuff (engine etc).

What is the deadline is for? Submiting or voting (or both).. If I post on the 24th, lets say, will it be okay? or should I do it a few days earlier?

a silly question really..

what should I try to aim for? Graphics? Riddles? Involving experience or creativity in the design? Typically all these should apply, but what does really count on a MAGS competition?

Thanks.

Minimi

the thing that really counts, is having phun. I you have no fun, don't enter, if you have, then enter. Graphics don't matter, though it shouldn't look like the drawing of a 4 years old girl/boy WHATEVAH!... and what seems to be important is the plot/story/dialog...you don't need advanced knowledge or something to enter, just make sure you get most of the bugs out, and make a topic of your full game, before the end of 25th of october, so you can enter.

Paranoia

like minimi sez just have fun,if you've got a good story with interesting puzzles it doesn't really matter what the graphics are like, mags is a good way to learn, if you need help aong the way there is always someone to help
have fun!!

The last few days...i`ve been adding 3 more playable rooms,3 more characters and a new puzzle element...

These parts were semi planned but i thought i would `nt have time to include.....hopefully this will be the version for mags this month.

But, in a way, you ARE in every MAGS game... You are the spirit of MAGS.  Or something.
