I always forget to check this thread - thanks guys! Always honoured to share a birthday with the great Pumaman...!

So close.

[THE LIGHTHOUSE]

Why the frig not!

I made a short game a couple of years ago, called THE LIGHTHOUSE.

I'm not even sure if it's any good! I can't remember much about it. But feel free to give it a shot!

Download it here!

The cast won't have been cheap either...

I believe I read that the cast (at least, some of them, presumably the bigger names,) worked for the bare minimum, the legally required amount, as a favour. Given their small parts, I doubt they would have had to sacrifice much time for it (especially Wil Wheaton, Pendleton Ward and Jack Black.)

(Don't ask me to source that as I have noooooo idea where I read it.)

It's a bit shorter and easier than I'd like, but I'm definitely looking forward to Act II. Very charming, and absolutely gorgeous - I hope anyone who asked "how can an adventure game cost so much?" sees the difference between this and a one man indie P&C made in a weekend.

I doubt this will keep a place in my heart the way things like Grim Fandango or Monkey Island do, but I'm also not the age I was when I first discovered those games.

Good work, Doublefine! A-!

The twist at the end really took me by surprise!

I often think about AGS people who went on to make it "big" outside of AGS, Jess is definitely one of them, she's great.

Thanks various assorted people who remembered me!

Everyone else: sleep with one eye open.

(Also happy birthday CJ I guess.)

It's been a whileeeeee, but I've decided to archive this all on my blog, for anyone who's interested:

Any other Brits got any idea who their favourite comic artist type person is? Or any idea where I could buy their work?

PHEW! It's getting hot in here!

I hope you guys don't think I'm weird, but I'd like to commission an adventure game staring the box with legs. About how much is that going to run me?

That'll be $3.45 million (I bypassed the Kickstarter.)

Woah, I feel awfully warm and flushed now...

I'd like to share a piece I recently commissioned too, if I may:



HUBBA HUBBA am I right boys? Gentlemen, start your engines!

Who needs brains when you've got legs like those? Cute is now a three letter word - BOX! Try to control yourselves at this display...!

It may have been £200, but it was worth every penny.

Thanks to the latest Humble Bundle, I have spare Steam keys for FTL and Eets Munchies.

(FTL, by the way, is one of the best things ever.)

You want 'em? Tweet out (or Facebook) a link to my web cartoon or store to help me out. We'll be friends AND you'll get a game!

I dunno man, I looked up the wiki page for Electronic Arts and it looks like they have 16 games currently in development, as opposed to only 8. I think you're slacking.

Why do you want to be a moderator here?

Speaking of being on the same page, how much is your budget for voice actors? We should sign a contract or 9.

I forgot to tell you that he is also the child.

Okay, cool, thanks. Here's my new sample:

CLICK THIS OKAY.

Oh okay, I can do paranormal. AND I can do activity (eg cross-stitch (which I've never done but how hard can it be??!?!?!))

Give me some sample lines and I'll do them in the SPOOKIEST voice possible.

I don't know who Aiden Lovecraft is, but I gave it a shot because I am a professional.

Here is my sample.

If you like it, call my agent, also, hire me an agent.

I encountered the same bug. I got the feather, then rang the doorbell, then noticed the part laying on the ground.

Yeah, me too. I was a little disappointed, I felt like I missed a stage or 5.
