Well, I always thought that Black Sect looked like a pretty cool game, and now not only do I discover there's a sequel, but on the same day its remade. I guess I better find the time for playing the original now. Even if it turns out this game is really bad, you sir, are awesome.

Huh, I didn't think about changing the sprites. That's a really good idea. I think that'll work.

No, that's not something related to Linux. The zip contained the files in three locations. One in the base folder and twice in two folders inside the base folder. The extra folders being called Data and Windows, meaning you just copied the game's files from the Windows directory to what would correspond to your Compiled directory and then zipped up the whole thing.

I understand the problem, but the thing is there isn't really a way for me to add them without it being messy. I'm already strapped for text and inventory space in terms of changing the bottom half of the screen. Having it appear as its moused over is also messy.
As to a clue, you've just got to find things that look out of place...

Weird, the game freezes for me as soon as I start. I've never had that happen before. Despite playing under Linux through WINE this is the first AGS game to cause that for me. I'm honestly not sure if there's anything you can do about it beyond noting it.

Also, you have your game's assets in there three times. Makes a considerably larger download than it needs to be.

The woods near your ancestral home are not safe. Nobody was ever sure why. You've returned to your ancestral home after several years abroad and feel unease around them. Your grandfather died of a mysterious illness. He once told you there was a demon in those woods. That it lived there since the day God kicked Adam and Eve out of Eden. The symbol of the cross kept him out for so long, but its waning has made it strong. He was never a superstitious man, but whatever lived there made him afraid. Your family is glad to see your return, but a strange white hart has gored your mother, just before your arrival. In rage, you grab one of your grandfather's hunting rifles to end this demon's life once and for all.

This is something I made for a short contest. Its intended to be a prequel to a longer series of games. That's why the title is what it is instead of something that makes sense.

Thanks, I apologize for asking such a simple question but searching provided me with no obvious results.

So, instead of doing text like a normal person through the standard format, I'm instead using a Label on the GUI to display text. This has so far not caused me any trouble. However when I try adding a variable to it, it gives me a parse error. Am I doing something wrong or is this just not possible?

Code: ags

Label1.Text = ("Its a 44-70 Hans & Rogers pump-action rifle. It has %d rounds left.", rifle_ammo);
