I will say it once again, this was a very excellent game. I really liked the dialogue system, it felt very tense and reminded me of indigo prophecy and heavy rain. Excellent job!

managed to crash the game. Room 8 line 109

That is really weird, I haven't been able to recreate the crash. Have you tried it again since?

And by the way, you (and ProgZ) made me watch the movie. I guess I'm a fan now.

Awesome! Thats good to hear! I believe all 4 movies are available on netflix instant stream now finally. Also on a side note I saw this on the internet the other day http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VklhUhVC3ps

Phantasm for the Atari!!!

Congratulations Hedgefield, a deserving win! I thank whoever voted for me. In my eyes, I made my second published completed game and that's what is important to me. I have toyed with the thought of adding voice acting to the lurking horror, but only time will tell how that turns out. But Congratulations to everyone that made a game in this competition!

Now that its been out for a bit, out of curiosity has anyone unlocked the third ending?

Spoiler

Or should I say the Hamburglar ending

[close]

There are no Nazis here. 

What an absurd concept!

Oooh, that's a bingo!

I'm unsure if I get this right... If I need help with how to blow it out my butt should I to ask here or should I make a thread in the tecnical forum? 

Definitely the completed game announcements section

I have had enough of all the forum Nazi's on this board.
I decided not to post here because all you get is a bunch
of idiots looking to see if you broke a rule.
A bunch of selfish kids.
Blow it out your butt.
Bye Nazi's

Speaking of kids....

[15 minutes:]

Here are my thoughts on the games

15 minutes:
This game has a nice mix of humor and game play. Without giving away anything, I really liked the last puzzle and how it all operated.


concurrence:
I didn't have any trouble at all figuring the controls out. I completed the game and would like to say you should defiantly expand on this because you have something really good going here.


In essence:
The only downside I really have to say about this game is that it seemed like punishment when you died because you couldent skip the intro  otherwise this is another game that has promise and should get expanded on!

OSD:
There isn't a whole lot to say that others already havent.


City Of Thieves:
The mini games took me a minute or two to figure out what in the world was going on but when I did I was very impressed on how it worked! The 3d characters are not really my thing but this is another one of those games that should be expanded upon!


RunAway:
This was a fun little game. Add some flashy animations and a little user friendly controls and you got yourself a pretty unique AGS game!

Lurking horror
Since this was the game I made I'm not going to say a whole lot about it. I would actually like to do a full length game with Phantasm but I would fear I would not be able to give it the best presentation nor the care it rightfully deserves. I will discuss it with my artist but we have a much larger and less borrowed element game planned 

[OVER ALL]
This was really tough competition and very strong entries! It was really hard to vote

Wow! Very strong entries! Good theme I would have to say

Now I'm curious as to how to get the third...

I didn't really want to reveal the joke ending all too early but I'll provide some clues.

Spoiler

1. Since its a joke ending you may want to keep that term in mind.

2. Once you know what your possibly up against, only then can you go on a mind numbing terribly implemented pixel hunt.(lucky for you that it is hidden close by). 

[close]

But honestly I dont think many people will find it that funny besides a few of my RL friends 

I've only found two endings though, and that's if I count

Spoiler

the death. Does that count?

[close]

Yes that does count as one of the endings. The third is more of an Easter egg if anything else.

Thanks for all the comments.

When I first spotted this, I thought: Finally, somebody redid the Infocom version

I just looked up that game on Wikipedia seems fairly interesting! I need to start actually looking up titles to see if they are taken since Dead Silence was obviously a movie name a couple of years ago as well.

Nice job in overall, but it was way too short...  

Yeah it is pretty short which is why I decided to put the possibility of dying at least once in there.

Overall it's an interesting game, but not calling it Phantasm or stating where you heavily borrowed from for it is a bit dishonest.

Yeah sorry...this wasn't really anything I was trying to hide. I put this game as a fan game in the AGS database and I figured if people have seen the movie then they would know. But regardless, ill  re-edit the entry and tell where the game was influenced from.

Can you die in game? Because I don't like when i die...

Yes there is one instances when you can.

[THE LURKING HORROR]

After taking a break on AGS, I decided to finally push myself and make a game once again. This time via the MAGS competition!


I present to you:

THE LURKING HORROR
This games influence and inspiration originated from the old 1979 movie, 'Phantasm'




You are Mike, your brother has just run off to follow up on a lead about his missing friend at the local cemetery. If the rumors prove true about the place, your brother is in mortal danger and so are you!

http://www.mediafire.com/?5cemzr8a5zuwm4w a 4.19MB download size

The game has multiple endings and should provide some replay value with multiple dialogue and solutions.

WARNING: GAME CONTAINS STRONG LANGUAGE AND GORE........download at your own risk  

Pro Tip: You can LEFT click AND RIGHT click on inventory items.

Enjoy!

[THE LURKING HORROR]

After sitting at my computer and wondering forever if I should release the game now....I have finally decided

I like the idea of using a light/shadow or a distinct sound to tell the player something bad has arrived. Music goes a long way as well.

I would like to find someone to Beta test my MAGS game. PM me for more details and a download link!

Edit: I have enough testers for now, thank you for the interest!

I am very close to finishing. Trying to polish as much as possible. But I should be able to upload the game on time.

I'm wondering: Is anyone here working on a point and click adventure?

Yes. Haha but you guys are gonna be over killing me with your guys 3d and more original stuff   But regardless I wanna make a game!

Edit: I have nearly all the graphics done. Starting the grind of programming. Music is being done with outside help. Ill do a wild shout out  and say if someone wants to do a walking down and walking up animation for my main character I would be ever grateful, otherwise we may hold witness to a noodle arm guy animation like my dead silence game  .

This is why I never signed up and posted on the forums until many years later. Gave myself some time to grow up
