General Discussion / Re:Development teams
Wed 29/10/2003 12:53:14
I'm working alone, just because I know that at this moment, I'm not capable of working in a team, because you have to do everything together, and mostly I want it my way. In my opinion is 12 rooms, for a year work very few, except if the rooms are highly detailed like indiana jones quality. Look... I think that working alone is just ok, for making free adventures, but the thing is, is that you need to keep up the pace, and keep working. I find that sometimes hard, but I think I'll do just ok, for someone that works alone.

The thing is, is that people want to make a too long and beautiful game, and they ask too much of themselves. When I found out about AGS, I was dreaming of making a full-length game, but at this moment, I'm making medium length game(s), and after I've done some of those games, I might be starting on a longer game, though there's still the fact that I'm affraid I will never finish that. I think a 25 room game is long enough for someone who works alone.
That's why I respect Ratracer so much. He made the coolest game The Uncertainty Machine, in a year development, and the game is just wonderful! I don't think alot of amateur-developers are capable of that, including me.

After almost 4 years, of quitting pianolessions, I decided to start again. I don't want to waste all the money my parents put into the lessions, so now I'm going to pay for them myself, and start learning again!

I'm pretty happy about this decision of myself, and I'm even kinda proud, because this means I just created another goal in life for myself, wich is to play piano real good. So that means there is less time, for the computer, wich is good in my case, because I'm too much time behind the pc.

How do you feel about this. Do you also sit too much behind the pc, and has this been effecting other things in life, like your social life, music lessons, sports... things like that. I hear of alot of people that they do fun sports and music untill they are about 13, 14 years.. and they just get lazy, like I became. Is this any familiar?

Well, I know alot say you shouldn't, but in my opinion is Multimedia Fusion a really good and easy application. It's website is : www.clickteam.com It's not free, but it doesn't require any knowledge of programming, and you can make platform games with it, including adventures. You can also make all your games available online, to run as an applet in your browser, wich you want. Just check it out. The price is only $99, and it's worth it! They also have a great community to help you out!

Maybe you are already mad?

As for your brains... Are you sure it's your brains that hurts, and are you sure they are there. Because I think there is no brain needed for making a biscuit game, is there?

nevermind... what do I know? Vel took my brain!

I present to you : HypnoSweet!


HypnoSweet is lovely little creature, who's cute, and looks sweet. It's the perfect protection for your home. It brings people under hypnose, by his big eyes.

It also records everything that happens outside, with a nightscope, and is displayed on the front of the HypnoSweet.

Dear DG,

I have this question I can't possibly answer, and I'm sure you've got an answer to it.

If God is able to do everything, can he also make a stone, that he can't pick up himself?

AGS Games in Production / Re:GameBlaster V1.0
Sun 26/10/2003 08:17:29
You are not making this with AGS, aren't you? My guess is Visual Basic, because it seems familiar, but I could ofcourse be totally wrong ;) It's a nice idea, of having a menu of all ags-games. But the thing that bothers me is the name, because there are tons of programs under that name. About 6 or 7 years ago, for example, we got our first cd-burner, and started making copies for others, and made lots of money in that time. It was called Gameblast. Later I found there is something similar to Twilight wich is also called Gameblast. There is a website where you can play free games, that's called Gameblaster. And I think there are much more.

So I suggest, think of another name maybee? Some more questions here.

1. Who writes (will be going to write) the html info files?
2. Can you import games to the list, by searching the exe file of the game on your pc?

WTF! The game has only been release for, like a week.. and all you people have finished it already? I was planning on buying the game next week, and I DID played max payne 1, and enjoyed that alot! I played it 4 times.

The story is just soo cool, and the idea of putting cutscenes as cartoons in it, gave me the idea for my games ;)

Im looking forward playing Max Payne 2!

You need to talk to hannibal lecter about the wine. This sentence will appear after you try to grab my brains. Now you can go to the wineshop.

That's the problem with a lot of games.  All the characters have one or two things to tell you.  I was thinking of making a "random response" list, where they talk about their life if you ask them and they aren't interested in your quest.  Maybe you even have to listen to them a bit before they give away a clue?

And it was Momento, I just saw Pitt there for some reason.  Strange.  That's like I KNEW that Stargate had Val Kilmer, but it turned out to be Kurt Russel.  :P
I think it's not about that, actually. It's more like, the not SO important characters change through the game, and that they have their own personality, though that they do react on the progress of the game, and things happening around. It's like you are really alive. This can't be done by random lines, because they are random, and do not have influence on the atmosphere around them.

Wow, I was hoping to go to Mittens, and I was hoping it was a little closer to The Netherlands, but it seems like I just can't pay the 900 euro, not now, and not in a year! So I'll just hope that next Mittens (2005... boy that seems a long time from now!), is closer to holland.. something like, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Spain... something like that. O well... I'm anyway, still a newbie... I guess it's for the best to wait another year.

Good story untill now. I'm not far in the game, because I got stucked in room 1 :P ... well... I'll figure it out!
I just feel like I need to comment that there are alot of spelling faults, in the intro, and also in room 1. It seems that you blindtyped it, and didn't checked the sentences, because some words miss their last letter, or some obvious letter in the middle. So maybee you should take a look at that. I haven't found any bugs yet, but maybee that's because im stuck!

Spoiler

I have the bed and the toilet as inventory. I looked at everything, and the tab is stucked, though im sure I need to do something with the tab and the airconditioner window on the top, but I can't figure it out! :(

Yupz, the screenie does look good, but you it seems that the file brings up too much data for geocities, so I suggest you to find another host.
#819
Well, SSH... I haven't yet updated that part of the post, but I changed that part, because as you say, Vietnam is impossible, because they never been to earth. You can notice their gender between the legs, you know the 3rd leg of mankind. Sam got one, and Moos not. But ofcourse you won't see that in the game, because they got a pants on! :P


Don't worry, I'll keep plenty of games unfinished ;)
I just DO want to finish some games, so you can't say I never work on them, and only start new crappy ideas :P
