Well, this is a great MAGS. I'm not sure which game I'm going to vote for. I think The Last Harvest and Snake were the best games, but they both have bery big pros and cons, so it's difficult for me to decide. Sinitrena's game was ok, but not nearly as good as some of his other games - I really liked Lonely Night . But the grahpics really are painful to look at sometimes. I must say that I really didn't like Operation Save Blue Cup very much, but I do agree with Wretched that it has the best ending of all the games.

But the real reason why I post this is to ask why we never see any statistics about the votes. I think it would be interesting to know how many people actually vote for the MAGS - and how many votes each game gets. I don't know if this has already been discussed before, since I've only been voting since january '06 (where I tried making a game but failed to finish it), but I would like to know if there is any reason why things are done as they are 

Thanks, but how

do I get the second silver ring? I have tried to ask "Miss" again, and I've talked to all the other people, including the tree

get muddy at? i have bucket of water but not sure where to use it?

Simply "use" the lake at the place where the game starts. The bucket of water is for something else.

Just finished the game. Found two of the possible three endings, but there should be a third, so...

any ideas about how to get the revolver without paying with the coin - it's made of silver and could be used for making a second bullet which could be used for shooting the mysterios "Miss". I don't know why I want to do this, but I think it would help. I tried paying with the pillow, but he just took it without giving me the gun.

Thanks Petra - it worked.
That must be one of the strangest puzzles I've seen since the "bend the piece of iron twice puzzle" in Fightmeyer's Noisy Mountain...

This is a very funny game - I think it's a great idea to make a player character without hands. However, there are a few things I don't know how to do...

Spoiler

How do I get the superlemon? How do I make the beans into powder? And why is that stone giant there? If I could just get a hint or two...

This is a great game.... but I have some problems...

Spoiler

I can't defeat the Wizard in chess. He tells me to get better, but I can't finde anyone or anything that can make me better.
I have coin, diary, pillow, nail, apple, can, sleeping pill
I thought of using the sleeping pill in the Wizard's blue cup, but "he'll see me"

How long time do we have to play the games before the vote ends?

Spoiler

Try talking to the pet. But what to do after that I don't know.

Sorry... maybe that sounded a bit insulting, which was not my intention.

Thanks 

I'm voting for Sinitrena's Lonely Night. The other games were great, most of them looked better - but there's something about this game I just can't ignore. Besides, I think it was the one who followed the rules best (the general in Infantry Division wasn't really retired, was he?... nor do I think he was the main character... and the captain in The Family Treasure didn't look old at all).
Can't write anymore now... I have to go find the music from Lonely Night...

Great game! I really enjoyed playing it - it's getting my vote!
I particularly liked the music. Where did you get "As time goes by"? I would like to have it, but I can't find it anywhere.

Unfortunately I will not be able to finish the game that I've been working on (but I really didn't think that I would). But I have learned a lot about making graphics and using the AGS editor, so maybe I'll be back next month.
I look forward to playing all the great games that will be finished.

Thanks for all the good advise. I've tried to make some of the suggested changes.

I'm also working on a game for the January MAGS. It will be my first AGS game... that is if I actually finish it.

This is my first AGS character. Actually I think it's one of the first things that I have ever drawn from scratch with Paint. It is the main character for the MAGS game that I am (hopefully) making - the game will be my first AGS game. So I'm a real newbie.
His clothes are supposed to look like some kind of pyjamas that he has borrowed from a hospital. His shoes are some kind of cheap slippers.

       

edit: new version. Improved shading. Background colour changed. Shading added to pocket. Feet made a bit longer.
edit: new version. Darker shading. Changed arms. Shading changed in the third view so that the light comes from the same direction in all four views. Shading added to shoes.

Thanks, SHE DEVIL!

lakerz, I have had the excact same problem as SHE DEVIL... I have been trying to do something to that door for the last hour... I could really use some more help... what am I supposed to do to that door?
