But what Helm would love in an adventure game, I'd probably hate, and vice versa, so they'll never please everyone.

And you've all gone off topic into this whole "adventure games should be this and that" conversation that creeps up everywhere. Argh it's almost as annoying as when I was on the Oblivion forum and everyone just moaned that it wasn't as good as Morrowind.

Good idea! Then and now photos!

Oct 2005:

I was completely unaware I'd gained weight at that point. (I was also redecorating, hence the destroyed wallpaper remenants behind me)
Nov 2006:

Be gone, foul extra chin!

And something I just did on photoshop:

Suuuure, in the demo I solved the cheese puzzle without even thinking about it, I couldn't even think what swiss cheese looked like at the time, and I solved it on my first guess hehe.

And some lines made me think "Was that supposed to be a joke?"

But for some reason the overall demo was fun for me. I'm seriosuly scraping up the pennies off the floor to maybe buy the season/episode.

Hmm what if they don't manage to make all of them for some reason, will one get their money back? They don't seem like a financially stable concrete company to me, that's all. Even if they have been around for years, haven't they? Just look at Acclaim. (I think it was)

EDIT: Yeah I was thinking of Traveller's tales. But my point is still valid.

Actually, I didn't. He implied I found Sam and Max lacking because I am apparently not its target demographic....

I took it as his point being that they weren't apologising for it, but nevermind. I don't think they were implying it wasn't meant for you. At least, that's how I took it.

Hmm hey, Bully/Canis Canem Edit is fairly easy, AND is based in a school, but is aimed towards 15 to 30 years olds. I'm just saying my thoughts out loud...

Oh I see! Yeah the site has been slow at loading anyway today! I'm eager to blame NTL.. my web provider as they suck. (But it's cheaper for me!)

I always wonder why sometimes THIS website becomes awfully slow at coming up "waiting for www...." and then i go somewhere intense like myspace and it's super quick! What's that
all about, anyway? It can't be the amount of actual downloading info.. can it? A connection issue then? Would yee know, kind sir?

Oh it did work after all! I guess it was slow on the uptake. (Slower than usual)

and there was that error message, in my defence.

I'll go add ya Minimi, one good turn deserves another, or something like that.

EDIT: erh.. I can't find an "approve member" button or anything.

I hope it logged it! Bloody thing fucked up on me! All of my today's plays were lost I think! It was "scrobbling" them and then it had an "error" when I was listening to Thom Yorke.

So now I won't listen to what i did for a few weeks and it will make them seem unpopular with me, mis-representative!!!!  >:(

Ahh thankyou Vel!

Chicky, just to clarify what they said, make sure you've listened to enough music first otherwise it won't have enough data to make a chart.

Then what I did was click on "tools" and then the option is staring right at you.

Me too, I don't have UT. But my mate loves it.. shame he's not online at the moment eh!

Unless someone has UT I don't see how we can help, I guess. *scratches head*

I decided to join, and I added the AGS group a week a few days ago and I'm still a "pending member"! Who runs that, Hajo? Tell them to add me already please!

Did you beat classic Maniac mansion in 10-15 minutes on your first go through? I doubt it. Most adventure games are quite short if you know what you're doing and just rush through solving all the puzzles.

Good luck though!

Oh, and it's bugging me so let me educate you on that front.. when almost anything ends with "ing" you take the 'e' off the word. So not "useing" but "using" and not "makeing" but "making". OK!  :)

(I'm telling you this because presumably you'd end up doing that in the game..)
#1873
Hehe. Nice.

*Decides for no reason whatsoever to to google the words "PVC" and "woman"*

No, you're no graphical wizard but the backgrounds are better than anything I can do!

They're nice, pleasant graphics. I'll play your game when it's made.  :)
#1875
I wanna see some sprites!

Maybe Jake Riker from my game can join up with Jake Fisher from your game.  :P  ;)

I for one shall not be playing this. I'm afraid I boycotted all Nestle products because they are complete scum. So I refuse to give them any kind of information or have anything to do with them, but please feel free to tell them one user wishes Nestle would go into liquidation.

If you don't know what I'm talking about, have a read of the wiki I found for you:

Okay so I've only played the demo, but it seemed very faithful to Sam n Max to me, and I only played that game for the first time this year so my memory is pretty fresh.

I enjoyed it, and I am tempted to get the full version.

I think ProgZmax just had exceedingly high hopes. Like when the Morrowind fans hated Oblivion. (But as i said, only played demo)

I'm competing with Spooks? Oh, hell.  ;)

You know, I always hated the tongue sticking out emote icon on here. Why can't it be smiling? I always use that on msn to say I'm just teasing! But here it's like "F*ck you!" and thats not my tone at all!

So no I'm not mad at all. Unless you mean in the insane kind of way, then by all means.

I guess I was sarcastic actually, with the emo band listings and stuff. Sorry. (hence why FFAF came up)

Reminds me of this person who is OBSESSED with The Birthday Massacre. So when she started up a band she called it "Murder at the masquerade". Boy did I laugh.

I'm not implying anything! As you say, you don't listen to bullet for my valentine. How about My bloody valentine? Or My bloody bullet for my chemical valentine's funeral? They're good. (I am taking the mickey out of all these similiarlery themed bands now)

Cool to see you on myspace! Arguably pre-mature, perhaps. Especially if you're changing your band name, you might have to make a new profile?
#1880
I'm curious as to what it looks like without the gas-mask man on cross image! Where are you getting these images from anyway?

Why is the bullets for beloved logo not centred?

EDIT: As in centred with the moon and guns, not on the disc cover.

I bet you like "Bullet for my valentine" as well!  :P

and "funeral for a friend"

You sure you aint an emo band? (Kidding kidding! Unless you are, I mean, if you aint then the name sends the wrong image across actually)

Yeah wheres da music?
