Sun 07/04/2013 07:22:29
Now i know i cant really draw well.. I haven't done any drawing in like 2 years so getting back into it. I been drawing this place for about 3 hours or so.. So just having a break wanna have some ideas on how the perspective of this should be.. It does look kinda wrong to me..

But just to say this is just a extremely rough sketch.. basically its a entrance to a bar i know.. I have no idea how to draw concrete in pixel art the one table is concrete.
How i done them before was using patterns(textures) in photoshop. but wanna a more cartoon look. would like some ideas


Something im a bit better at is characters.. Would like to know if i got the postures kinda bad..

I got a problem with AGS. I am trying to do something I have never done before I got these Smoke Particles I made. I wanna repeat them but in ping pong style. The animation goes forward then backwards on repeat. I have got 3 objects called Smoke1, Smoke2 and Smoke3. And in the view is impossible with over 100 frames unless I reload all images backwards somehow. Any ideas?

OK this is my choice in themes.

I would like you to write or produce a Horror Suspense track about 30 seconds to a minute long.  
The most scariest sounding one wins or a new scary sound that I never heard anything like.  :o

As an example I composed this one for ideas-- http://www.webfilehost.com/?mode=viewupload&id=1564387

I am only gonna make a Gold and Silver Trophy
Gold                      Silver


Note: These are missing the alpha files so the transparency is missing. I will some how put the files on later on.

                                                The Hunt For Shaun Binda Deluxe Edition                   

I finally finished my game.  ;D  I spent a lot of time on this project. I hope everybody will enjoy it.
The puzzles are fairly simple. Music I enjoyed making and I think sounds quite good too.

                                                                                  [Story]
Lisa goes out to a night club late at night after breaking up with her boyfriend. Mainly cause she knew her Ex-Boyfriend Shaun Binda is there. But when she arrives she is not confident enough to talk to Shaun.

The objective is to find drinks basically.

Thanks to Peder for the download link. ;D
Thanks to everyone that helped here on the fourms with scripting and art criticism.  ;D

Note: All other credits are in game.

I got a quick question.

I wanna use the default fonts made for 640 x 480
But I think some people have laptops and cant really read it. I got 1440 x 900 wide screen and can see it and looks neater.

So this is the question can I make a option to turn it off and on. or technically change fonts to the higher res one.

I searched the manual and the forums. So unless I am blind ( Which is very possible  :P)
I don't think anyone asked this question before.


EDit: While I am asking this question. I got another problem with the player walking. When I click with the mouse on a certain spot and I keep clicking ( Not that many people do that) the player stays still but does the walking animation.

OK I have been planning on remaking my game with Puzzles and everything. Only found time to do it now.
And I hope it is OK making a new post for a remake of my own previous game. But I think it is that much of a remake that is nearly completely different besides the story.   8)

[Story]
Still the same story that was in  the previous game  :-\ maybe a little bit altered
Is about Lisa who is obsessed with Shaun Binda who has a had a girlfriend for 5 years. But Lisa thinks he cares for her more than his girlfriend. So Lisa just broke up with her Ex-Boyfriend and decides to go out drinking and over parties till 4am and She is in this club and she is sobered up.


 These are the following things I been working on.

[Changes for the Remake]
New adding  a few Puzzles
New Music done by me.
New animations [Fixed all walk-cycles]
New Backgrounds [Rooms] about 5 more
Added 2 endings little movies.
Remaking some characters and animations + adding new characters and animations.  ::)








Story 100%
Puzzles 20%  
Characters 80%
Scripting 50%
Music 50%
Dialogs: 30%


Unlike the previous game I will only finish it when It is perfected to me.  ;)
Anyway I am just putting this up for anyone who actually enjoyed my previous game.  :P

I am making this creepy puzzle, Mini game my sister wanted in her game. That is quite weird but I just think it will make the game unique in a twisted weird way.

The Mini game is that my sister (Lisa, Player) Has to shave this guys chest.. very weird i know.
( And Don't misread that! )  (I know things I do for my sister's games)

What is the best way to do this?
My real problem is I find it hard to script a game that progresses.

So just as a guess I will make like 9x9 Objects. 18 in total

Then If the player uses Shaving cream the Sprite changes. then if the player uses Razor make the Hair or whatever visible = False.

Then

if hair.visible = false
{ player.changes room(1); }

Also how to make it that the room only changes when all the objects are visible=false only.

Sorry I would put the code but I don't have AGS to write it out.

Just really asking if this is the best way. and how does everyone else do Puzzles like that.
( Not that anyone has ever done a puzzle with shaving someones chest but anyway)

OK I am making my second game continuing from the first. I am really only making this thread to see if people will play it. If not I am going to do another project. In other words I need Inspiration to do this project.
So if you will play it please post on your thoughts of it. Also I might post a demo in the future.

   


   

Graphics: 20%
Scripting: 10%
Puzzles: 0%
Story: 10%

EDIT: What the game is about is. My sister is obsessed with this guy Shaun binda and she does anything to see him. She actually doesn't like him just thinks he is so good looking that she will do anything to see him..      

so I made this game.


[Update] Feb 19 2010

OK I have been thinking and I am going to make a Gta style game. But with Adventure too. So here is the GTA top view looks. ( In other words I am copying Police quest).But hopefully in gta physics.





This is a fresh idea only thought of doing it like 3 days ago.
I think I am going to do either 24x24 grid top views or 12x12.

please give me your thoughts. and Criticism  ;)

Hey does anyone know where I can get any fruit loops tutorials. But more on how to do game music.
like Monkey Island style or Leisure suit Larry 3 style music.

For my episode 2 of my game. I want my game to feel more like an old classic (So it fits with the graphics  ;D ) .

I would prefer to do the music on Fruit loops. But if anyone knows a better program to do that style then please just give me the link.

If there is a better place for me to put this thread please tell me.
This is continuing the discussion on my game's size of The Hunt For Shaun Binda.
Has anyone got any advice on how I can lower the game size or compress to a lower size more then Winrar.
The game is 57Mb exactly i think. and I can maybe manage 5mb. Winrar can do 15mb.
any help will be appreciated and the more help the quicker you can play my game  ;D .

This is my first game (But made from an empty template) I have actually completed it.
But I can not upload it yet cause my internet is too slow
and so I am just editing things so here you go this is what I got.


The censored bit is just a guy in blood so I just censored it.(there is no leisure suit Larry here   := )


Story:You start has Lisa ( My sister) in a night club monoko and you have to talk to Shaun Binda before you can leave. That's about it  :D . There is more but you can see when you play it   ;D

This is just what I might edit.
- graphics 90%
- puzzles 100% (Cause there is no puzzles)
- scripting 90%
- music/sound 100%


I put a quite a lot of effort into this game. It is a Christmas present for my sister.  8)
If anybody can give me some idea's of turning 58Mb into 5mb or less please pm me.  ;)
And if anybody would like to help me with the visual feel free to pm me. Thanks
