Ok so I tried to register my name, Victory Creek Productions...it's a wordplay with my last name Segerbäck. in Swedish, 'seger' means victory and 'bäck' means creek(Not sure how that will show up on everyone's screen but the 'a' in bäck is with 2 dots over it)I was denied because apparently, Victory Games exist and so does Victory television. Do I have to change in my games now "Victory creek productions presents" to something completely different or should I just keep going with it without a registered name? Are there any potential problems I'm looking at if I keep using Victory creek productions because of those other 2 companies?

Hey what would be the best way to do this? I'm gonna have a day and night cycle in my game and when it's night, objects should be tinted blue and when it's daytime i remove the tint. I know how to do that of course but when the day/night timer has expired and the character is in the room that will have day/night changes, do I have to put something like this in every room? (just doing this from the top off my head now so the actual code might contain errors. It's just for giving you an idea) beacause it will look weird when the background frame changes and the objects don't. They will change before fade in though if the variable "night" is either 0 or 1...Hope you know what I mean

function room_RepExec()
{
if (IsTimerExpired(1 && day==0)){
  SetBackgroundFrame(1);
  day=1;
  object[0].Tint(0, 0, 250, 65, 100);
  object[4].Tint(0, 0, 250, 65, 100);
  object[5].Tint(0, 0, 250, 65, 100); 
  SetTimer(1,2000);
}
else if (IsTimerExpired(1 && day==1)){
  SetBackgroundFrame(0);
  day=0;
  object[0].RemoveTint();
  object[4].RemoveTint();
  object[5].RemoveTint();
  SetTimer(1,2000);
}
}

Jimmy the troublemaker 2 was almost finished when I decided for a total makeover...no more of that crappy pixelstuff I made for that game hehe...I just started playing around a little...Is this appealing?

Hey! Sorry if i posted this in the wrong forum. I wasn't sure where to post this, I was thinking about recruitment room but that didn't feel totally right either, so just move the thread to it's proper location if I chose wrong
So anyway, I have made my first android game "Foxworth's ring madness", a silly little "jump through rings and avoid/destroy obstacles to get as much points as possible" I'm about to start up my own little company so that I can sell some games on the android market(hopefully ) What I'm asking for is if there is anyone here who would like to try my apps/games on their devices before I release them? Only serious trustworthy people of course, who can give serious feedback and not just "This totally sucks" hehe

Again...sorry if I put this in the wrong place!

Yeah like the topic say...I came up with this idea last night while browsing around thinking about activities. "I dare you" a little game,where one person (maybe me) will give out the first dare. could be "Swallow a raw egg" or whatever and the first one who proves with a photo/video that he/she did this gets to make the next dare. There will be no stupid dares where a person could get hurt or any illegal dares of course...If anyone have an idea to improve/organize this game feel free to tell me about it Soooooooo
Yay or Nay for this little game?

So I got my baby back home with some new stuff inside. An AMD FX(tm) 8320 8 core processor, 16 gb of RAM and a Geforce GTX 760. Oh and a new SSD Harddrive. Something to drool over or is it just total bullcrap?

Frank has 100.000 dollars. He gives that money to a danish guy who wants to open a restaurant. For that, Frank receives food stamps for the restaurant worth 150.000 dollars. These stamps, Frank sells for 75000 dollars. How stupid is Frank?

Hey! In this picnic-friendly room I want to animate that candle in the corner...But I really suck at it. The candle animation itself is easy to make, but how to make the light against the wall? Can someone give some good pointers how to do this? (Animated attempts are of course more than welcome hehe )
Enjoy!

Ok so I'm sooo interested in making a RPG... I'm not using AGS for this though every aspect of making real-time battle in AGS seems difficult. In this program it works perfectly! I just wanna know what style people would prefer. The fantasy style or the modern style? The thing is that I really want to make a fantasy RPG...BUT...the characters I'm using are already featured in another game and the owner made the sprites public domain and that is really good but it doesn't feel perfectly right.

I suck at fantasy characters that's why I decided to use them. In the modern style I'm making, I do everything on my own including characters.

First the semi-original, traditional fantasy



And the fully original, modern

So...My girlfriend told me about a game she used to play as a kid...maybe it was spectrum or possibly the good 'ol C64...I don't have much info...you're some sort of character on a ship with many rooms and the portholes on the ship blinks like eyes...I don't know what the objective of the game was...I guess walking around doing stuff Does anyone have an idea which game I'm talking about?

Ok this is what I have.(Feel free to simplify this by all means...coding is NOT my strong side hehe)It seems to work  but I don't want the Maxdamage variable to deal max damage all the time. How can I write so that the Maxdamage deals a random number of damage between 1 and max? Thanks in advance!!

Code: ags

function room_RepExec()
{
  if(Damageenemy==1){
  Damageenemy=3;
  int dam=Random(7);
  if(dam==0){
  enemyhp-=1+blunt+strength+Maxdamage;
}
  else if(dam==1){
  enemyhp-=2+blunt+strength+Maxdamage;
}
  else if(dam==2){
  enemyhp-=3+blunt+strength+Maxdamage;
}
  else if(dam==3){
  enemyhp-=4+blunt+strength+Maxdamage;
}
  else if(dam==4){
  enemyhp-=5+blunt+strength+Maxdamage;
}
  else if(dam==5){
  enemyhp-=0;      //player miss
}
  else if(dam==4){
 enemyhp-=critical+blunt+strength+maxdamage;
}
}
}

Prepare to relive the glory of the 80's slasherfilms!!! Camp Death is my attempt at the horrorgenre and I hope it will scare you

Jacob's sister is missing. She went to work as a counselor at the now reopened and infamous Camp Death. She has not been heard from for a long time so Jacob decides to go there and investigate. 1. Is she still alive? 2. Has the brutal murders started again?
1 = We don't know.
2 = HELL YEAH!!!

I'm making good progress on this and I have the whole story planned out. Now I'm focusing on puzzles,music and building the world

Here are some screenshots! Hope you like 'em

Hey. I have a problem I hope someone can help me with. My girlfriend is from Poland and lives with me now in Sweden. She's a educated dental hygienist and of course she wants to get a legitimation/ID for that here. One thing our National Board of Health and Welfare requires is a "Certificate of good standing" I guess that means some sort of proof that she still has the right to call herself a "dentalhygienist" and work like that in her home country. That she never did anything wrong to lose her license. Where in Poland would you get that? I'm having a hard time explaining in English to her what the "National Board of Health and Welfare" is...Thanks!

So I've been toying around with my very limited 3D skills and came up with a little something. I decided to put it here because I want some feedback and I'm not ready to post in the Gip thread yet. It's a short demo so you could probably play it till the end in no time It's supposed to be a horrorgame in the style of the 80's slasher movies(Friday the 13:th etc)
First a screenshot (Maybe a little too dark but it's for the atmosphere )


Hope the download link works!!!

I just think it's hilarious to read about people's fears and theories for the end of the world on december 21. The 22:nd is a saturday so I guess I'll have a nasty hangover and promise myself for the 10.000:th time to NEVER drink again and probably wish the world DID end so I'd get rid of that damn headache

Barney's had enough!!! Not only does he have an old nagging wife. Last night his last remaining animal was taken from his farm by aliens. People has been mysteriously vanishing as well lately...It's up to Barney to save the situation.

It's a project I've been toying around with for a little while now and I don't plan to make it a full-length game. So hopefully it won't take forever to get it out there.

Here are the must-have screenies!





...And a few animations





This will obviously be a cartoonish game where you will do the usual stuff...walk, talk and solve hehe. Barney needs to build a machine that will attract the aliens so he can board their ship and get his revenge...

So...I've recently started to try something a little more advanced than that Jimmy the troublemaker stuff...Does this appeal to anyone? What are your first thoughts about it?


Here's a walkcycle too and a sitting down animation

English is not my native language so there's probably an error or two here...oh well.

Like every adventurecharacter would say...Here goes nothing.
I have no direction in life. Nothing is fun, not even AGS (crazy huh?)
I never have anything to look forward to. There's no job that feels even remotely interesting.
The things I used to love to do doesn't feel fun either! (Mainly a musician)
Damn I've never spilled my guts out like this before...but maybe it can help a little.

I live a lonely life and I don't have many friends...1 or 2 maybe and not much of a family either. I think more about the
"afterlife" than the current one. Sometimes I almost wish that I'd get a lethal,untreatable disease
so I could get away from this F*****g world. Ahh...I'm not really sure what I expect with this thread but nothing has helped so far...Maybe there's someone here with a current or past similar lifesituation?
I've seen a lot of psych people and it never helped. Anti-depressants(correct spelling?) hasn't helped. I've got scars all over my body after the knifewounds I've inflicted on myself over the years. I've stabbed myself so bad sometimes that it's a miracle I even survived.

I'm not starting this thread to get sympathy. I just don't know what to do anymore...A pretty heavy thread indeed, but since we're all strangers here and from all over the world I thought "What the hell...it's worth a try"

Yeah...Unfortunately I don't have much info. It's a game I played as a snotnosed kid. The only thing I remember is that it was a beat 'em up. You walked around in a jungle, fighting different opponents. The main character kind of looked like a rambo clone (I think) bare upper body and had a bandana or something like that. Oh and if I'm not mistaken the controls were terrible and the game probably sucks sooo bad, but for old times sake I need to play it again Does anybody know the name of the game I'm looking for? Sorry I don't have more info to offer!

Yeah I need some tips people...I'm a hardcore horror fan, but nothing bothers me anymore...Just had a few beers and watched Traces of death...again...(although not a horror but still pretty sick) and felt nothing. I need something really sickening people!!!! haha
