Hello everyone,
After years of thinking how great it would be to create my own adventure game, I finally decided to give AGS a go. I'm doing the best I can with the given information on the website, watching the youtube tutorials of densming and reading forums right here. However, I do have some specific questions to the AGS community and some technical questions regarding the resolution and such. I hope you guys can help me out before I start this thing for real!
I have made a sketch in Photoshop which shows my style of graphics. I would like some feedback on the background (I'm terrible at drawing certain perspectives), the GUI and the overall style of the graphics. It's my first attempt, I don't have any drawing skills or experience other then a few doodles I made with Flash a long time ago.
My technical questions are:
The current resolution is 640x480. I'm not sure what to do to fix the blurry images I get when I select full screen. I get that it's being stretched out, but I'm thinking that there might be some workaround. I'm used to vectors in Flash and shapes in Photoshop. Stretching and resizing never seemed to be a problem for me, and since I'm making it pixelated I was thinking that at 200% zoom, it should have blocks of 4 pixels for each original pixel. Am I going the right direction with this or am I totally off and should I try a high resolution? It feels pointless for me to make small pixel objects and increase their size by 200-400% in Photoshop before importing them.
I would appreciate the feedback and suggestions. I can't wait to start doing some serious work!
