Oh, I do that anyway, I thought it was the best strategy to get answers in the minimum time.

I read somewhere that TRACE or CRATE are very effective starting words.
What are hard mode rules?

Hi:
My name's Pijin Pastrana and I've been developing games with ags for a while. Robotragedy 1 and 2, Dr. Lutz and the time travel machine, Maverick Gunn and the Eye of Oggun, The manuscript of Sarmanyanha and Postcard Adventure. I believe this game's years nominations are very good and fair but I have to say that I don't feel treated with fairness because the backgrounds of Postcard Adventure can compete with some of the games like ossarium or breakfast on trappist 1, and I don't mean any disrespect to the developers, they are great but year after year the games I released , no matter how hard  I tried to achieve the best looks possible, NEVER GOT even a nomination. I wonder if the reason I'm cuban and out of the mainstream is the reason .

Hi Pijin Pastrana! Nominations for games aren't done through some secret hidden group with an unknown agenda- games are put up for nomination and nominated by the authors and public members of this community. If the public isn't aware of your games, they wouldn't be in the right mindframe to nominate them. For example, while I had known of the Robotragedy games, I wasn't even aware of Postcard Adventure. You're right, they're very pretty backgrounds, and I'm sure they could've been nominated. Usually authors will post a thread in the Completed Games forum section to show their game's release, and near the awards time, they will post their games in the "For Your Consideration" threads so that people can be made aware of them for nomination for awards. I notice your game had neither, so I suspect people had simply forgotten about it (if they had known of it in the first place).

Dunno what strange stuff happened here, but anyone played 2? I've not heard good things about it...

Nope. Shouldn't give you the wrong idea of the kind of movie:

(hopefully not too obvious)

You're going too far back

Setting:

I'll go with the obvious answer first...Dune?

Nope, it is not Venice, but it is often compared to it.
And nope, it is not Spiderman.

Lorenzo got it!

Nope. Kinda moving thematically away from the movie compared to the first guess. Going yet a few more moments earlier in the movie:

Video creator I kinda follow mentioned AGS. And I think it's time to update our site 
Link with timestamp

AGS is open source software, there are no such requirements.

Not Se7en, and I didn't notice the tint. If it takes longer to guess, I'll try to look for some less blueish images.

Nothing else? How about another image from a few moments earlier:

I am talking about this thread

Your thread reminded me of a similar thread from a while back I shared a link in, and then I realised that was from you! You've been struggling with this one for a while, haven't you?

Echoing the advice from the video I shared in that thread, I'd recommend making something specialised specifically for that banner header image. Right now it looks like you took the sprite for Huggles, a caravan and clothesline from the game, and put the title text in the middle. I'd suggest something more...full? Like a whole, contiguous image made for that purpose, even if it doesn't exactly echo or match the art style of the game (as long as you feel it evokes the same FEELING you're trying to communicate).

Wow, that's a very interesting guess! Wrong, but interesting.

Here you go. I suspect it has featured here before.

And it is back!

Thanks for the update! Yeah, discord has a greater number of members, but #AGS was still going relatively strong.
