In my opinion school uniforms are stupid, stupid, STUPID! I'm glad that we in Sweden we don't have any uniforms, it's free-style (except for naked, nazi clothes and over-sexy clothes of course, "laughing") even religion clothes, punk and Rock N Roll clothes is allowed. I just hate that you actually are forced to wear clothes that you don't like or are unconfortable (except for working uniforms, I'm working in a foodshop but they're not uncomfortable of course). It's up to you what to wear, that's my opinion, at least in school and on the free time.

Oh, about the wind making the skirts blow up, you don't wear without panties, do you? What I know it is only in Scotland that men doesn't have any panties under the kilt (I don't know about the women) so why wonder too much. Of course it's embarrising that people see your panties but it would be worse without any (Bursting out in laugher, sorry I can't help it).

Hints & Tips / Spellbound

I'm stuck at the beginning. I have used the bullet with the key-hole but I can't get it to blast off. I have noticed the symbol on the door-knob and I know that you have to use that spellstone thing but the symbol isn't on the stone so I can't use magic. What should I do?

Hey m0ds! How about set up the theme for Hawaiian Treasure once again? I can't download it because the site doesn't exist anymore. I have told you again and again but you're ignoring me! Why do you do this to me? What have I done against you? You could at least replied. Now, please, don't ignore me again, I'm trying to be honest. Come on, pal!

I got stuck at the beginning.
Spoiler
I can't get into the tower and I have looked under the welcome mat. I have tried everything and I don't understand that complex stone thing. What am I going to do? Isn't there are shorter, simplier and easier understanding of using the stone? And how come there are no symbols that the book said? And why isn't the book about the stone in the game?

I'm going nuts about this problem.

SPOILERS fellahs! HIDE them!

Thanks Ginny. Ok, here is a clue.

There is a spell that can dry mushrooms but Murphy don't know this one. Maybe someone else does?

This seems exciting. It's between me and two others. I can hardly wait for the results while hoping for the best.

Why not mimicing voices of characters from adventure games, cartoons or movies? I suggest that you could try mimic some character's voices can give you some experience. How about those for a challenge?

Dr. Fred, from Day of the Tentacle: Thank god you weren't that stupid! (quick pause) Did you say BERNARD???

Glottis, from Grim Fandango: Me? Ha! No! No, no, no. I don't ride 'em, just WRENCH them.

Murray, from The Curse of Monkey Island: Alright then, ROLL! ROLL through the gates of hell! Must do you make fun of everything?

Max, from Sam & Max: Hit the Road: Oh! Does this mean I get to kick puff whitey mad scientist butt?

Thank you guys for the comments!  :) :)

I'm going to update the game after competition is over. The update will be included (like I said before) the last remaining music piece (Belphegor was to busy with exams so I don't blame him), getting rid of the bugs you mentioned plus I'm going to extend with longer puzzles and add voices to the characters.
#649
And when you do, use different kinds of characteritics and accents for example a 15 year old american school guy, a 25 year old aussie surfing dude, old grumpy scottish, kids etc. The more kinds of characters and accents you use more can search you out as a voice actor because you can do many kind of voices.
#650
I have added screenshots now.

I know the game isn't so hard and it's not so long but since I had to finish the game before the end of the competition I didn't made the puzzles too complex or too long. I may extend the game a bit with longer and harder puzzles plus I use more sound effects, add the missing music piece and using voices for the game.

Here is a clue:

Murphy doesn't know a spell to do it but there are someone who knows a spell like that.

Here is my first finished game and my entry for this month MAGS Wizardhood. This game is about Murphy a 15-year old lad who recently have finished the trials of Wizards and become a wizard. While he goes to town he saves a girl named Emilia and Murphy's master Melvin and John Elmore, the leader of the Wizard Council, gets surprised by Murphy's heroic act that they give him a special mission: To get back the Black Crystal from the evil wizard Agrahgorth.

Here are the screenshots. Some of the colors on the screenshots are not right since I had transform them from bmp to gif in order to use the quick upload.





Here is the link to download the game:

Have fun!

Here is my entry... WIZARDHOOD!!!  ;D

It's still missing a music piece but otherwise the game is fully function. I hope you will enjoy this magical game that have more than one spell and a surpising ending.

It's too bad that the others gave up. Well, I guess it's the old Monkey Island quote "If there is only one candidate, there's only one choice.". It's a shame too since I wanted some challenge. At least I got my first game finished and it gained me experience for future projects.
Anyway, have fun playing and I'm thinking of updating the game with the missing music piece and maybe use voice actors.

Wizardhood is nearly finished. I'm waiting for Belphegor to give one more music piece and then I'm going to upload it. I'm sure that it will appear here tonight. It's a shame that everyone else gives up so easily. It would be more exciting if they kept on working and finish their games.  :(

But I'm sure it will be better next month.

Beginners' Technical Questions / Scaling
Sat 22/11/2003 21:04:34
I have a bit of a problem in my game. At the end of the game when some characters comes from rooms with other kind of scaling, they are bigger than the main-character. I think the reason for it could be that the room which will end the game doesn't have any walkable areas (the reason for not to have walkable areas is for a special thing which I won't tell because it's a surprise). How can you change the scaling of a character? Is there a commando for changing the scale size of the characters?
#656
In the SCUMM templates by prosikito I have found this scripting command:

GoToCharacter(MEL,2,0,1);

I have discovered that this command makes the player character walk to that character that is displayed and turns to him but I'm not sure what the numbers are standing for and the command isn't in the help part. Does any know the fully information behind this command?

It would be usefull to know how so that I can make the player-character walk to characters wherever they are and if you want to either face the player character right, left, up or down.
#657
Well, the music are saved but they still don't play. What could it be that is wrong?
#658
How can you see that you have saved it?
#659
I have a little problem with playing the music. No matter how I play the music, the MIDI songs won't play. I have tried rename them into music1.mid or MUSIC1.MID. I even have tried rebuild VOX files but the music won't play. Other sounds works well, do you guys have any idea what's wrong?
