As if I wasn't enduring an agonising enough wait for Pirate Fry 2, you go and post these absolutely awesome screenshots! This looks incredible, I played through the demo for the second time last week and the improvement is so huge. As much as I liked the graphics of the first game and the Hand Of Anturus demo, this looks just wonderful. I can't wait man...keep us posted in this thread.

Wow, these screenshots are great. I love this style. Looking forward to this one, definitely.

I like the look of this a lot! The cartoon style is cool and it's great to see the SCUMM-style interface appearing, that's not in enough AGS games. I look forward to it a lot.

Thanks very much guys.

Halgwet, what's your next project? This is great work.

Nice stuff, Halgwet, I love the idea of the game and I've enjoyed playing it to the point I got to.

Especially loved the conversation with the bouncer, lots of nice references fitted in there (even 'The Feeble Files'!), I think I got most of them! I got into Chez Apa, got the nose ring, found the safe, salted the peanuts, not sure what I'm supposed to do next!

Well you find with a lot of first/joke games people don't bother with some little things like you did. I was impressed anyway, well done

Just found the alternate ending Trapezoid, genius! Great animation and the text afterwards was funny.

I really like how you didn't cut any corners with making the game (apart from cutting out that prison sequence), like Satan moves so perfectly...the way he lifts his arms does kick ass too. It's a really polished little game, especially for a first project.

I loved the game, very funny and a great concept. A longer game with Satan would be great, but Suspico looks like it will be a great game too. I couldn't find the alternate ending referred to in the readme...

One time I tried to give the address book to Roger and the game stopped working, you might want to look into that for a future release.

I've changed it just now, coincidentally, just before I read your post! Crazy! My site's hosted by Sylpher, so thanks to him. Post on the dead forum I have, or else.

The Pirate Fry 2 demo is awesome, as was the first game, I much look forward to the full game, with the enhanced graphics (rubs hands).

I wouldn't mind beta-testing it for ya, Squink. As long as it doesn't reach the beta stage in mid-January when my exams come up...

I might have to try my hand at this kind of background, looks neat.

I second Scummbuddy's comments, I'd keep using that technique, captures the FoA feel very well.

It wasn't exactly an extensive e-mail, but yes he did reply.

Anyway, from what I've read I'd guess that Yahtzee doesn't want to come back to the AGS community, I think he left for good. A shame as this game proves he can really make a kick-ass game - I'd like to see a friendly Yahtzee return probably, but it's unlikely. I wasn't overwhelmed by his other games (except a RON one he did was okay I think) but this one's super.

Well I'm enjoying this game quite a lot. Great sense of humour and atmosphere to it. It feels kinda like Melée Island from MI1, a feel he admits he was going for. It's good, one of the best AGS games I've played I must say.

I e-mailed Yahtzee to say I like this game and he thanked me (briefly).

Microsoft don't make Winzip though, don't blame Bill!

I think the game crashed because I closed the drive and then the computer was scanning the drive once it closed to try and autorun it.

Why does the game open the CD drive!?

I tried to play it but when I got to the first screen/intro, it seemed to eject my CD drive, I pushed it back in then it crashed my computer and I had to restart. That happened both times...weird.

I just played it, pretty nifty little game. Your character seems convincingly badass, especially with his strafe-walk, and his action-hero comments. I liked the way it ended...simple and cool. Good stuff.

When are the AGS awards happening?

Also, what has happened to AGDZine?
