Leisure Suit Larry Coming to the N-Gage 7/22/2004, by Chad

Nokia announced that it will co-publish and develop Leisure Suit Larry: Pocket Party for the N-Gage platform. Based on Vivendi Unviersal Games' classic Leisure Suit Larry series, the N-Gage offering is a 3D adventure that challenges gamers to help Larry get the 'action' he so desperately craves.

Leisure Suit Larry: Pocket Party is the first handheld version of the series and contains gameplay and features that are only available on the N-Gage platform. In addition to the steamy situations and dialogue, the game is the first N-Gage title to feature cell-shading. Leisure Suit Larry: Pocket Party is expected to be released in November 2004.

"Leisure Suit Larry is one of the most loved â€" and pitied â€" video game characters of all time and has a fanatically loyal fan base," said Pasi Pölönen, Director, Games Publishing, Nokia. "Nokia is thrilled to bring such addictive, hilarious gameplay, to gamers."

Gamers assume the role of Larry Lovage, nephew of the original Larry Laffer, and are immediately challenged by Larry's lack of social skills, charm, style and luck. In Leisure Suit Larry: Pocket Party, players explore an extensive and highly detailed 3D college campus, while solving puzzles and engaging in risqué activities. As they search for the ultimate good time, gamers bump into Rosie Palmer, the head cheerleader at Larry's college. Attempting to win over Rosie's heart, Larry is thoroughly embarrassed by her jock boyfriend Chuck Rockwell -humiliation never stopped Larry before and he is determined to do anything to be with Rosie.

Leisure Suit Larry: Pocket Party features more than 30 hours of gameplay, 10 outrageous characters, and non-stop steamy dialogue and situations. In addition to Larry, Rosie and Chuck, players will encounter other hysterical personalities such as Loosey, the hot, manipulative cheerleader, Nigh T. Mishons, Larry's soda-guzzling, video game playing friend and Professor Drew Barringmore who prefers letting it all hang out.

Leisure Suit Larry: Pocket Party offers gamers the opportunity to test their social skills against others via head-to-head Bluetooth multiplayer gaming including up to four turn-based two-player mini-games .

Leisure Suit Larry: Pocket Party is being developed by TKO Software, and co-published by Vivendi Universal Games and Nokia.

hi there!

at the moment I'm working on my first game in ags. It's going to play in RON... I just started to do some conceptual art.
This is one of the very first backgrounds I did, so don't exspect too much. I'd be cool if you could give me some hints on how I could improve the whole thing. And I don't know what I shall do with this building on the right side.

thanks in advance! 

hi there!

I was looking for programs like AGS, but for other types of games.
I mean there are several RPG makers like sphere or there's 3D games Studio for 3D games/shooters, etc...

Well, I was wondering if there are programs to do jump&run games (i know it's also possible with AGS  ), beat'em ups or real time strategy games.
