Well, poo.

Yeah, while we're at that... would "Internal Functions" count as an abstract inventory item? If no, would a piece of information be possible?  Or a 'Stack Error'?

Coffee. Lots of it. I mean, really, really really much. And staring out of the window while drinking it. That usually works for me.

*bump because this thread is not -too- old and I want to do it before it gets*

So, how's it going?

[Planned:]

A game for this month's mags competition.





* Play as the Experimental Synthetic Warfare Neohuman AI!
* Run internal functions! Yay!
* Defend the science vessel Von Grun!
* Comes with its own list of colors used! (Black, Light/Dark Green, Light/Dark Blue, Light/Dark Red)
* Thrilling plot. Wheee!

Progress:

Planned:
Thrilling plot - 100%
Graphics - ~75% (There aren't too much)
Puzzles - 100%
Masses of references and interesting acronymes: Yes. (For example: X.S.W.N. can also be read as Xerxes Shodan Wintermute Neuromancer)

Actually done:
Thrilling plot: ~30%
Graphics: ~50%
Puzzles: ~20%
Masses of references and interesting acronymes: Yup.

Finishing date:
ETA is April 26th 

It may seem like a very short game now - regarding how much I've done in such a short period of time - but trust me: It won't will be one. (sorry)

-7th of April-
Yay, update! Two new screenshots available... well, okay, one is an updated version of an old one. Also, I've finished the plot outline.

-14th of April-
Another update for today. The game will be quite a bit shorter than originally planned, sorry. But to not make you too angry, there's a new screenshot in the post down there. Okay, it is that room again, but from a different scene this time.

-22nd of April-
I managed to miss most of my deadlines - hooray - so only an incomplete version will be ready for the mAGS competition. Sorry. But anyway, that incomplete version shall be fun! (I hope)

I think I never introduced myself, so I'm doing it now... nearly a year late. So, um, hi. You're not getting any more personal information. 

[AGS]

Looks like I'll enter this month. I'm really good at confusing and random stuff.

/EDIT: With something really, really unexpected. I mean, it's monthly AGS, not Point'n'Click adventure competition.

/EDIT EDIT: Forget about that. Cascade Failure!

Exactly that. Can I create a new character/object/whatever while the game is already running? cNew = new TCharacter(); doesn't work (surprise!)... is there any way at all to do it?

YAY, CAPS LOCK! 

Not counting today, you mean?

Heh, thanks. I always use the [hide ] tags in [spoiler ] forums and vice versa... 

Spoiler

Root and Admin are the only logins that'll work.

Otherwise, you've gotten it right. Have fun with the rest of the game, Hammerite, and thanks for helping him out, gASK.

Congratulations, you BOTH are the 999,999th visitors! You both win an unique only-you-get-it price! 

Nah, that game is just... ahem.* I mean, yes, we know what to expect from FSi  , but in my opinion that game was not really as - at least - funnily crappy as his other crappy games. Just... ahem.*

*Sorry, my stomach again. I think I'll have it removed.

Did you try messing around with all resolution settings, too? Also, you could try turning "compability mode" on (assuming you're running Win XP)- that usually works, though I couldn't see any reason why you should have to. Good luck!

I adored Banjo-Tooie

Heh, I used to like that game, too... way ago. Today, my all time favorite is Defcon.

Ahem.*

* I tried to say something nice or funny about this game, but my stomach started to choke me, so I turned it into "Ahem" instead 

A fine piece of propaganda. No, that's not the name of the game.

This seems quite useful. Thank you!

*sigh* Okay. So, anybody willing to do this? Or give me a few pointers?
