Looks like a fun game, I added it to my wishlist on Steam!

Maybe this could be an opportunity for Olga and Ivan to examine their relationship...

"Wait! Let me put my right hand down to match my left so I look more decisiv... AARRGGH!!!"

Well put! 
Anyways, I just found this:

Was already unemployed before Corona hit, and I don't have too high hopes now.

I've tried selling some stuff I've made on Etsy too, https://www.etsy.com/shop/GalateaDolls, but with only limited sucess.
I'm really hoping someone would buy a doll as a Christmas gift or similar, but I could use some help finding people interested
in handcrafted toys and collectibles.

Why don't you spread awareness of your products by creating a few YouTube videos of how to make them?

I've thought about it, but I don't have much skills in making videos and editing them.
I've got an instagram account for the dolls though: https://www.instagram.com/galatea_dolls/

Trump is purging the Pentagon and replacing everybody with ass-lickers.

He's replacing the ball-suckers with ass-lickers? Invest in the tic-tac company.

Maybe he should flip over all the couch cushions and see if he can find the 2.3 Trillion dollars Donald Rumsfeld "lost" in the pentagon.

I can't tell you how much more readable this thread would be if it weren't for the constant barrage of portentous non-sequiturs like this. What does it mean?

"Donald Trump is trying to steal the election? Ho, ho, ho, well 19 years ago some other thing happened."

I already lost track of where this discussion was going way back in 2016.

Congratulations on the release! It's great to see a game I've seen in production for so long finally be released!

Well, several of my games deal some with the political climate of the Soviet union, one even features a political officer as the protagonist,
but if you're looking for satire of more contemporary leaders there's Space Rangers sob Ep.52 - the Redemption of Grisli Adams by Grok,
which has it's own spin on the "US president is secretly a lizard" trope. There's also Neofeud by SliverSpook.

Is politics a good subject for adventure games?

It is. I've yet to see any cyberpunk story worth it's name that hasn't touched heavily on subjects like authoritarianism, data privacy and oligopoly at least once,
and there are plenty of well-liked cyberpunk dystopias in the genre.

Now copy that sprite into your drawing, LOCK it, and create a new layer and start drawing! And you have a much better change of getting the proportions correct. Great tip, huh?!

Basically what I've done with my games, though you don't even need to take a sprite from an existing game, just draw a rough sketch of a human/game character and resize it until it look right for the background you're drawing,
then cut out the character sketch and use that as a size basis for future character sprites, plus as Danvzare, use the scaling function in the AGS engine if you make a background with a perspective going on.

Let us know how it goes! 

I think this is not your usual style, but it works. The shadows are my favourite, they feel right.

Thanks, I'm glad testing new color combos paid off!

I tried drawing a nice little cottage:

I'm just so sad that this was the final film he ever worked on:

While the art looks pretty terrible with a style all over the place from cartoonish characters but using realistic stock-models of submarines and other stuff, that is really jarring for an adult, I think the movie looks like it could be fun and engaging for kids.

I haven't seen it, but I've heard from reviewers that there's almost no plot and it's mostly just weird James Bond references, which is probably how they managed to entice Sean Connery into the project.

I'd love to hear from any AGSer with kids what they think of it.

eri0o: Yup, that about sums it up.

This movie poster came to my mind:

I literally laughed out loud when seeing these comments on a video I was watching:
