As an example, I can't find any decent pictures of AGA.

It's because it's impossible.


Oh snap!!

Mourir en mer is more about somebody who's bound to die, and wishes to do it at a special location.

I agree that it's not morbid or tasteless, but it's still not a matter of choosing whether to live or die...at least that's the way I interpreted it

I never felt like the main character HAD to die when he did, or that death, at the time of the game, was inevitable. Maybe that's the way the creator meant it. It probably is. The fact remains that it's about death and is done well. Even if it's not about suicide specifically, it's still a good example of working with a potentially touchy subject in a gentle manner.

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned this already, but the game Mourir en Mer is a game more or less about suicide that is very tastefully done and it's one of my favorite AGS games. I'd suggest playing that to get an idea of how you could do it.

As for art style, so long as the story is strong, I don't think a cartoony art style will have any impact on it.

Funny, I remember Eric having...not...that body-type

I'm not implying that Pesty drew wrong, or that Eric is actually a lot sturdier, but....hm...asch

I think I know what body-type eric is. It's my bone pile he jumps in, not yours! You're just jealous, admit it!

Man, them "Feurstein Hips" sure are a trademark.

They totally are. He's like a supermodel. A time travelling supermodel!

Seems that Pesty and Ghormak have some sort of shady agreement, like a cartel of humour. They should be reported to the c&a ombudsman (yay, I could use a swedish word).

Before we know it, they dominate all our humour activities.

Oh no, our ploy has been discovered!!

Pesty: Longhorn is the codename of the new OS. It'll probably be changed to "Windows: XP 06" or "Windows: FU" or some other random abbriviation by the time it's released.

This page lists all the Windows products and their codenames: http://www.phm.lu/Documentation/Windows/Codenames.asp

Windows 3.1 = Windows Janus
Windows 95 = Windows Chicago

Etc...

They need more creative people working at Microsoft.

Longhorn? Seriously, they named the OS Longhorn? I believe this is some sort of joke and refuse to believe it exists until my dad buys four copies and makes me install one on my computer.

Ha ha, you piratey coquette!
You did the best one yet "I do not want to win!"

Still, I'm afraid that Joker would only smirk at the letters and keep poisoning like hell. Because he feels contempt for bad ortography.


I do not want to win because I won the time before last. It was I that picked Ghormak to win, and if I won again, I would most assuredly pick Ghormak again! It would be a vicious cycle.

Mine was mildly inspired by these two old Slovenian ladies my dad knows who believe that their neighbor or landlord or something (I don't know the man's relationship to the ladies) is putting poison into their house through the windows and also had a "computer genius" use a satellite to make a light in their house flash red.

I'm not really entering. I do not want to win!

This is a bit of an in-joke...I'm also breaking the rules slightly...I'm also being pretty mean.
But hey.



I would not want myself as a sister or a lover. Oh, wait! I'm not Daisy!

* Pesty  punches Andail!

So, today is the day...of destiny!! Who shall take the gold? Who's cuisine reigns supreme!

IRON GHORMAK!

I only saw the the end part of The Net D: but it seemed decent-ish (and it is kind of true that in the future, with ID cards and all coming, it might one day be possible to just... 'delete' someone.)

The Net makes Howard the Duck look like Citizen Kane.

The true horror underneath Bobbin's hood is the darkest horror of all! Fear the elder weaver god!

Like Martha Stewart, I was filled with knowledge before the rest of you were, so I got mine done before the thread was even posted! That's also why I didn't use the picture provided.

I can see it. Do you want me to upload it temporarily so that you can see it, Gil?

And it's my pleasure to have Eric disqualified as well.
Because of the same reason, "Pesty, you can't win!1!" Since I don't need to the follow the tradition of Pesty-beating-Eric anymore, as his entry was not coutned! (And because princess 2ma2 made me giggle like a girl, shameful!)


Yay! I get disqualified because Eric can't read the rules! That's the best disqualification ever!

I don't really understand what either Mod... er... Midis or Pesty were saying, but for the record, this is what I meant:

The movie was terrible, and thus funny, and also Dan Aykroyd is one of the funniest people ever.

That should be clearer.

I was making a joke. I loved that movie Trading Places and find Dan Aykroyd very funny. I just couldn't let a line like that pass me by.

And by that I mean "OMG DAN ARKOID SUXX LOLOLOLLORZ".
