I think Simon 2 was the best. However not only did he move about as fast as a drunken snail, the other characters were also extremely slow. This only affects gameplay during the talking scenes, but it drove me nuts, being used to LucasArts and Sierra.
I particularly liked the idea of the old-new combination in Simon 2, such as the surveillance cameras at the three bears' cottage and the MucSwampling's restaurant in the middle of a medieval town.
I've also played Simon 1, never finished it though.

Oh, by the way, "What do you call a man with a seagull on his head?"

Hahaha!
What is it with you people?

If I may add something... You might wanna include only the story of the first 2 movies in the game...
The third... well, the third should never have been released if you ask me.

Another bug... Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to complain about the bugs, I LOVE this game, and I'm just telling you about them so IF you plan to fix them sometime, you know where to look.

Playing with Michael and Wendy. Gave package to Ed, then sent the manuscript (dunno if this is related to the bug) - this time the contract showed up immediately then went to Ed's room to give him the pictures and he turned hostile. I gave him the pictures, he thanked me, then threw me into the dungeon. However, after I entered the secret lab, he showed up and saved me... yaaay!

Couple of bugs:

1. I was playing with Bernard & Razor, sent the demo tape, the cutscene is shown of the guy recieving the demo, then I check the mailbox - nothing. I play a few more minutes, the cutscene is shown AGAIN, then finally the contract appears.

2. Happened a couple of times - while trying to climb the stairs to the third level (to the room where GT first shows up), sometimes the character is being thrown back in the middle of the room, then continues to walk to the stairs and eventually climb them.

All in all, a GREAT game!

Ok, it's over.
All the entries were good, but the only one which made me literally laugh my arse off was Haddas'.
So, ladies and gents, we got a winner!
Thanx for joining the caption contest everyone and Darth Mandarb, sorry you didn't make it.

Try this link .

So, are these all the entries?
Inspiration anyone?

Eggie: for some reason I can't see it.
Haddas: That's cool!

* Edit: Eggie: Never mind, now it's there. Cool too!

Without further ado, here's teh new caption contest:

Thanx for your C&C.
I've kinda combined the two and this is what I got:


Come to think of it, it doesn't look so good now, but it looks better than the other 2 in the game.

Oh-kay , thanks. Whom do I have to ask for permission to start the next caption contest?

Finished it! One of the best AGS games so far. I'll add it to my favourites next to 5 Days a Stranger.

Dude, Haddas, that idea freakin' rules!

Hold it, hold it.

I like the game a lot, but although I'd say I have quite some experience with adventure games I find it to be not exactly one of the easiest I've played. The main problem would be that the dialogs have almost no role in this game and give only very little info.

Hi
My game is almost finished, I only need a couple more anims.
And here's my problem: I'm trying (in vain) to draw a bent over version of the main character. However, the sprites turn out quite ugly.
Here's what I mean:


(the main character)


(the first bent over sprite - he looks a bit too tall and skinny)


(the second bent over sprite - he looks too short and fat)

Any ideas how I could improve any of the sprites?
Thanx in advance.

A couple of questions:
1. I've released the bird from the cage, sent mom upstairs to clean up, gave the old nut's cane back and used the doorstop on the door to keep it open. However, as soon as the cat gets to the door it runs straight back to the laundry room, even though the door is open wide... What's up with that?

2. How do I get the glue gun? The walkie talkie seems to notice my presence every time I try to enter the construction site...
