Hi mdm, attachments aren't supported on this forum. You can use a site like mediafire. Or, you could send it over email :=

When the forums are down I feel like a crack addict being rejected by my dealer. Man am I stoned???

Atelier Out.

I missed this the first time around. It's looking really good and the story seems very original. Good job!
#744
YARR!!! There's probably a better list but I can't find one off hand!

does anyone have a suggestion on where to find more (female) voice actors?

Well you could always use the actors you already have, just ask them to squeeze their bollocks.

I don't know if somebody came up with this idea before. In a video interview I have seen recently (not published yet), an old school adventure game designer mentioned, how much room for imagination in adventure games has been taken away from the players by inventing graphics in the games. I thought about it and wondered how much different the scenes would look like if different people tried to draw a scene that is only described by text.

The idea for a competition is to post a room description from a text adventure game and let people draw that scene to see how different the picture of the inner eye is in different minds.

What do you think about that idea? Do you think it could work?

This sounds awesome. Maybe it can be folded into the next background blitz, just for fun?
It sounds too similar to the background blitz so I don't know whether both would be able to run parallel.

Why do we not have a YAGS? Or even a DAGS? Or a CAGS?

Topic: 'Evil Twin'

This month's guidelines were set by vertigoaddict:

Create a game featuring a set of twins or a couple (etc), with one more evil than the other...
For bonus lols you can include a can of compressed air as an inventory item.

To avoid the whole 'define evil' debate, please provide your own definition!

Ideas to help you:

• A child impersonates their sibling to their own advantage.
• Pretty much an episode of Itchy and Scratchy.
• A husband finds out his wife is a matrimonial maniac.



fig 1: a zombie prawn!
fig 2: more creepy children!

Ending 30/8/11




What is MAGS?

MAGS is a monthly competition for all amateur adventure game makers. The idea is to create a game in under a month, following the rules set by the previous winner. It aims to help you work to a deadline, improve your skills, or provide a kick-start into making adventure games. Regardless of skill, MAGS is for everyone. Voting is based on "favorite" games, and not the most artistic, or the best coded. If you have bad art skills, use it as a chance to do some graphic work. If you're sub-standard at coding, use it as a chance to give scripting a go. Ultimately, people will vote for the most enjoyable entry.

You may get help for the competition, although you must end up doing something yourself. You should however be warned that it proves difficult to organize a big team within thirty days. You are not allowed to use material already created before this competition. Your game must be completely new! Music and sound is an exception; you can use free material that is available to the public, if you wish. Modules and templates are also allowed. Please do not enter the competition with a rushed entry (a game created last minute). Sure, you can make a game and rush it - but don't do this just to win by default.

Entering MAGS is simple. First, conceptualise your game following the month's criteria (see top). Second, create your game fueled only by coffee. Third, finally, and most importantly, post your game here, including:

✓ A working download link.
✓ The title of your game.
✓ A suitable screenshot.

At the end of the month, the all-important voting will begin! This period usually lasts fifteen days. Should you win, along with announcing the next month's rules, your name and game will be immortalised in the MAGS Archive. For more information visit the Official MAGS website.

I loved the first Jimmy the Troublemaker so I'm really looking forward to this one.

This looks really nice.

HandsFree don't forget you can press Ctrl+B when your cursor is next to a bracket.

This highlights the matching brace in yellow.
If the bracket has no counterpart it's highlighted in red.

vertigo and victor. Looking tidy for the deadline?

Unless someone has a heavily modified Deloren I can borrow, no.


Ok :D

Then by default but by no means a lesser entry...



Congratulations Ghost! PM on its way!

Thanks everybody!

etc etc.

I am somewhat sorry dbuske. From what I gather all your documentaries and ventures are in good faith. Yet just remember (hackneyed phrase alert) this is the internet, and I don't care how much somebody rips on me on the internet, because I know at the end of the day, it's the internet. My e-self is a different entity, a parallel life. Unless somebody knows me in person I won't get offended by anything on the internet, ever, because I know it's not the real me being offended. I just wish more people had the same attitude, including you - if you laughed it off there would be half the problem.

1) Don't take it personal
2) Follow the rules

Without rules the forums would collapse and there wouldn't be a forum to post in. How can I make it any simpler than that?

You're a stubborn bugger aren't you. This is beyond a joke THIS BOARD IS NOT FOR ANNOUNCING YOUR GAMES.

GO HERE TO ANNOUNCE YOUR GAMES WITH TWO SCREENSHOTS

YOU NEVER NEED TO POST IN THIS BOARD IF YOU'RE MAKING A GAME

I'm not a mod but you're really starting to piss me off. And another thing stop making your posts in fucking enjambement.

I prefer Um Bongo. Cos they come with novelty straws.



Why have I never bought an Um Bongo tee?

Pro tip:  Try to code out in the sun, if you can -- you will miss daylight.

You don't even need to do that. I find vitamin D tablets to be more than sufficient. In fact now that I think about it I haven't seen daylight in years. Damn I can't even remember what humans look like.

Lol only kidding, I coded a complex AI and I've actually been dead for over a year now. All my posts are automated responses. I could have done something a bit more epic but meh, got to leave a legacy behind somewhere I suppose.

Ian Mckellen

Ian McKellen is good. A top notch Gandalf, grey or white. But I fear he's getting rather old and senile now. Then again he has walked this earth for three hundred lives of men ;)

On topic of off topic, has anybody heard the theory that Tom Bombadil is the Witch King of Angmar himself? It makes a lot of sense. At the Council of Elrond Gandalf did suggest that Bombadil was given the ring for safe keeping. But it was soon decided otherwise. At the end of the third book, Gandalf says he is going to have "a long talk" with Tom Bombadil, even though the ring of Power has been destroyed and all of Sauron's evil gone from Middle Earth. Another piece of evidence is the fact Tom could control the barrow-wights of the Barrow Downs. Not even Galadriel herself could do this. Although that's debatable. The dream that Frodo has on his second night at Bombadil's house is also very curious.

Related to this in the last chapter of the first book, The Breaking of the Fellowship, when Frodo is on Amon Hen, is the voice telling him to take off the Ring Tom Bombadil? It may be Galadriel who possesses Nenya because wielders can communicate.

How do i check if my leg is broken?

+1 for Zooey Deschanel.

About the leg. If you have a cast it means it's definitely broken. If not then I can't help you :-\ Good luck potential amputee!
