Awesome!
I would have loved doing that as a child! And even more so now!

So Baron, Eric and Miguel have, despite their apparent lack of insulting skills, made it to the final round.

This time, the only rule is that you can't double-post. Apart from that, you're free to insult either or both of your opponents, and you don't have to wait until both have posted. 

LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE111!

Yeah the final round will be 3-way free for all fight (just no double-posting).

I also keep a separate view for the walking loops, since that will allow me to regain control of my character with a simple UnlockView() command.
I'm not sure what other issue can arise - the ones Khris mention - other than perhaps diagonal loops running if you have forgotten to turn off diagonal walking.

If this is a huge problem, why not just run the loop an additional time, but with the eOnce parameter, before fade-in (room_load)?

Cool stuff, DKH!
While it looks pretty straightforward for a platformer, the fact that you've made it in AGS is pretty awesome. I also like the development video thing, quite educational

Baron begins!

Insult!
Adeel starts!

You know the drill by now!
Eric begins!

Okay, time for round 2. I will announce the matches here, but I won't open the threads until later tonight. So for now you can study your antagonists and prepare to hit them where it hurts the most!

ERIC VS CAPTAIN D

MIGUEL VS ADEEL

STUPOT VS BARON

Alright, 24 hours later, it seems Ryan Timosity has forfeited.
Winner is Captain!
Clap clap.

Alright, since the cretins that make up the general populace of this community couldn't manage to select a winner, it's come down to an insult off. Or sudden insult, or something.
You each get to post one insult each, using no more than two lines of text. I'll then choose the winner unilaterally.

Since captain started last time, ryan will start now!

Yep, sounds like the way to do it.

Eric winner by WO.

First round over. Check out the fight threads and cast your - surely biased - vote now!

At least talk about the game. Just arguing with someone who hasn't even been active for over half a year seems a tad unnecessary.

Loving the second background! The others make my eyes hurt! But that's ok! Good luck!

Nice one!
Also nice hearing Joel's voice We've communicated a lot and now there's a voice attached to those text messages. A slightly disoriented voice struggling for words

Ok yeah I guess it was only Deborah Kerr and the Cinque ports that I hadn't heard of, both distinctly British.

This quiz is a bit too hard for me. I think I would stand a better chance if I were 50+ and British.

Really fun concept, though! Wish it was made slightly easier, less anglocentric and a bit more contemporary.

Ok, so you're through to next round!
