Also, what format are your videos?
Ogg should play without needing to install anything else, as far as I remember. Any other format will use the windows default player for that format/codec to render.

Make sure you have proper alpha blending set for Sprite alpha rendering style (General settings) and that your game is actually 32-bit (true colour)
If that doesn't help than there are only 2 options left:

- Your sprite doesn't really have alpha.
- Or you actually missed the "Transparency: leave as is" setting. Try and re-import the sprites and make sure you select both (Note that selecting "Import alpha channel" doesn't automaticaly select "Transparency: leave as is"...

Looks to me that that's a problem of where the pictures were hosted, and not a problem with our site or forum.
I checked the site where the pics where hosted, and besides everything being in chinese (?), which I can't read, all images there also look like those with a panda. So to me kind of looks that the site got hacked and all images were replaced with those panda pics.

Congrats remz!  

You do.  You can start thinking about a theme. 

Yeah, sometimes we create test code that we forget about, and then produce a bug that is hard to find. 

Congrats Klatuu

Oops, sorry, been on overdrive with work, that I forgot about this.

No idea, but that screen looks just perfect for a P&C game. 

It looks just as classy!

Exactly, that. ! means Not. 

As for the character not registering, make sure, in the characters properties, that the character is clickable. Otherwise it won't register. 


If that's not it, try and check if there's anything in front of the character, like a GUI, object, other character, that might be blocking the mouse from registering the character.

Also is you have problems with having that code in rep_exex_always, try moving it into rep_exe or creating a bool isSpeaking, so you can add to the if condition and not run the walk function if the character is talking.

LOL, so that's where I know those 2! 

Two, though the theme is the same... 

Thanks for the feedback remz. 

I'm aware of most of them, though...

... I was sure I had tested the normal-cap-sticker-cap & sticker variants.  Guess it's another one for the long list of stuff "to fix" after MAGS... 

As for the candy bar, nah, it's on the other side of the table. Charly would have to bend all over the table to reach it. The movement would be noticed, unlike a swift back hand movement while looking at the bully. 
But I'll change it to Charly refusing to on the grounds that they would notice such a bold move.

That's awesome!
Where's that portal this time? The refrigerator? or maybe the parents room? 

Are you feeling...

...lucky?

Yup +1

Also, if not too hard, setting up the sprite scale would also be useful.

I've also finished playing both other games, good job you too. 

Some feedback:

Win a Million (by Slasher)

Love the idea, and the play was okay, though the fact that all was blocking stopped me from answering on my own, those questions I actually new. On the other hand, the fact that the answers were only read once, made me sometimes miss where the cough was at. I learned afterwards to not listen for the cough, but read the answer right after the cough. So then I knew which was the right one.
I tried all 3 endings, though they're all kind of depressing . And I would love to have a skip cutscene implemented. After the first run, having to go thru the dialogues, was more of an annoying task, than enjoying the game play.
I think that with some tweaking and a lot more questions, you could make this an enjoyable game (maybe add a button for cheat) during the game, so that when the player wants a cough, he can just press the button - re-read the answers and then get the cough. I can see people playing it over and over just for the trivia part.

Guy: By Hook or by Crook (by remz)

The graphics look very simplistic, but as soon as Guy started to move, boy, that was a treat I was not expecting! Great walk cycle you got there!  That along made the graphics elevate IMHO and I enjoyed playing it from start to finish. Even though the game is very short, it got me stumped at one point, wondering if I had missed a hotspot/object somewhere or if the game was actually finish able.  But I figured it out eventually! Story is solid too, even if short. Good job!

and my vote goes to:

Guy: By Hook or by Crook (by remz) for creating a small but well rounded off story and cute animated game.

Oh dear good! The idea I have for a new game would so fit this theme!
Unfortunately, I won't have time this month as I need to focus on other stuff. Another time...

Should we be worried about you Stupot? 

I did a minor fix to my game, as it was stopping Creamy from finishing the game, and maybe others. All I did was remove a else and change a == into a <= in the code. So no other fixes other than fixing a broken code.
If you get stuck and the guy doesn't return, you can just save the game, download v1.1 (same link) copy over 1.0 and reload your game. No need to start  over. 

That's odd, I thought I had crushed that bug.
Can you send me a PM with your saved game? Or with what you have done and have in inventory?

I'll take a look at the code in the mean time.

Edit: Okay, I figured out why that happened. I'll try and fix it without breaking the save game.
I also spotted other stuff I thought I had fixed and polish I forgot to add a Game.DoOnceOnly.... no big deal, but I'll wait to do those fixes for after MAGS voting is over. I'll soon (I hope return herr with a fixed version).

Edit 2: I have fixed and replaced the file. You can now download a fixed version. If you have a saved game, you can continue the game.  Even if you saved where you were stuck, the Guy should be back or return when you load.
