Quick paintover.,


Next: System Shock 2!

Hm... if I am only partly responsible for the rules, may I enter?

Uh, I hate dumbing stuff down. Do you want the code a little bit easier or shall I clarify what to put where?

Well, you could use this (you'll need some GUI [in this case gCD] and a label [in this case lblCTD])

Code: ags

int countdown; 
bool countingDown;

// where you want the countdown to be triggered
countdown=400;//length in seconds*40
countingDown=true;
gCd.Visible=true;

//in repeatedly_execute
if (countingDown==true) {
countdown--;
lblCTD.Text=String.Format("Time remaining: %d seconds", FloatToInt(IntToFloat(countdown/40)));
if (countdown<=0) player.ChangeRoom(999); //the game over room
}

Well, you can't put scripting operations directly in the room script. Instead, click on "Room interactions" (the button with an i), and create a new Run script action under "Player enters room (before fadein)". Put your code there. Should work.

/EDIT: Oh, and welcome to the forums!

I guess because it's simply, well, funny. Even for Germans, and you know what they say about German humor (lies). Congratulations, anyway.

Yes, it's based loosely on a Browsergame called Kingdom of Loathing. Along with the (heavily altered) plot and the (altered quite a bit) main characters.


/EDIT: ...I forgot to give them credit, didn't I? 
/EDIT EDIT: And again, no-one will believe me I actually forgot it. Woo-hoo.

... I haven't seen Donnie Darko  :'(

And I'm not going to buy the Special Edition just because of "plot holes"... that would mean surrendering to the EA strategy. It starts with commentory, but it ends with:

"Oh my, 13DAS is free and good! Okay, the plot is not explanatory... hm... "TUESDAY IS ONLY AVAILABLE IN THE SPECIAL EDITION, SKIPPING TO WEDNESDAY?"... okay, I don't like Tuesdays anyway... er, wait, who is that guy? And why do I have a broken arm and everyone calls me 'Skinny Killerface'? Okay, let's proceed, let's proceed... er, what? "TO PICK UP THIS ITEM, PLEASE BUY THE MEGA-SPECIAL DELUXE EDITION"? Graaaah!"

... just kidding 

But seriously, I think I can live without these explanations.

This is so very, very unusual...



I'm popular 

But anyway, these people have spotted some more bugs and made some more suggestions, which already resulted in a minor update and will result in a major update... just wanted you to know.

(hope this doesn't count as 'bumping ages-old threads'...  )

They often put Freeware on their CD/DVD... I guess it's mainly as a 'space-filler', or one of them is one of us (a member of the AGS community)... anyway, I guess all of us include a link to the AGS website in their games, so this will at least help AGS getting even more popular.

Linus Bruckmann has ridiculously high system requirements, that's all.

Yup, that was its purpose...

And somehow, I managed a draw in the mags competition  :o

Nope, Force Majeure is some kind of side-scroller.

Also, in an interesting but probably unrelated fact, the magazine kept mentioning this website. You'll probably want to go there, you'll be positively surprised by the Navigation Bar at the top of the page...

/EDIT: Oh, and I think you're meaning a different game, not "A Game with A Kitty 2: Darkside Adventures", are you?

Okay, now I'll have to play it, with it appearing in a GERMAN games magazine and everything...

[Duty and Beyond]

Congratulations to the authors of Duty and Beyond and Spooks! Your games appear on the DVD XL of March's 'GameStar' issue, a - quite decent and professional, IMHO - german games-related magazine.

Screenies

Oh my, the drama! What will happen next? Dan working on the project again? Who knows... 

@SCORE@. As easy as it gets. In the manual under "Editing the GUIs".

There we go!



Next: Monocle!

...and uploading the file somewhere else 

It says I'd have to install some Toolbar first...

Now come on, boobs. As if we were silly boobs who can't get a single image out of our head for a quadrillion boobs just because it boobs boobs boobs.

/EDIT: Anyway, I like the boobs this game is going
