Thanks, Ghost! 

And don't worry, Tabby. Prick is safe. I'll never win an AGS award, so nothing will happen to him.

A couple of years ago, in a teaser trailer for one of my Barn Runner games, I offered to kill off the main character if that's what it would take for me to finally win a coveted AGS Award. Does that count?


The offer still stands, by the way. It is award season, you know.

Alright!  Where there's a will, there's a way!  Get yer writing caps on and push for that deadline!

I'll have something in by bedtime tonight. And that's 11 p.m. America time, not that crazy metric time you use up in Canada. 

Maybe you should plan a vacation, it's still winter time.

Good point. I should hurry and get in there before spring. I bet it's warm inside that Icey noggin'.

Icey, I would love to spend 24 hours living in your brain, just soaking in the Iceyness. 

Happy b-day, Dualnames and FSi 

An AGS Mega Crossover would be an awesome MAGS theme!  Somebody (ie Ponch) win and set these rules.

Right away, boss!

You made it! Yays! Now make it more!

I'm shoveling snow and beaver pelts into the AGS game making slot as fast as I can, Ghost! But Canada is a deviously subtle nation. Their culture seems simple, but beneath those adorable tuques and maple syrup stains (so sticky!), they're an inscrutable people. As you can see from my screenshots, I'm doing my research to make sure I depict Canada with 100% accuracy. And it's not easy, let me tell you!

Also, thanks to everyone who PM'd me and let me know that I misspelled 'Niagara'. That's just the sort of thing I'm trying to avoid with this game. But it's not my fault MS Paint doesn't have a spell checker, is it? 

I'm hard at work on my latest MAGS entry and I think I may actually finish this one. Baron and Ryan Timothy have been real pals about helping me learn all sorts of stuff about Canadian culture and ketchup flavored potato chips and jelly donuts and real beer and stuff. See, I'm making a game about the polite and well-mannered collapse of Canadian civilization in the near future. I call it...

2034 A.C. (After Canada)

Ah! Summertime in The Great White North. That front lawn is a real beauty. And the majestic peak of Lake Winnipeg is quite a sight, eh?


Canada is filled with many breathtaking vistas. And when the two days of Canadian summer arrive, these falls will REALLY be something!

You take the role of a young rookie in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police as she patrols the snowy wastelands of America's Hat (aka Canada), trying to maintain order as the system breaks down around her. It's the end times, sure, but you'd hardly notice what with all the smiles and friendly morning greetings. There's no need to act like a hosehead just because society is collapsing around you.

That's all I'm gonna show at the moment, but come back at the end of the month and see if I finished, okay? So take off, you hosers. I'm off to drop a toonie on some Timbits and a little Kraft Dinner, and then go back to my bachelor and stretch out on the Chesterfield in front of the warm rad. It's a beauty way to spend the day, eh?

I may have an idea for a story of shifting identities and winter woe... but without a trophy for my sig file to inspire me, I'm not sure I can brave the frigid winds of my living room corner and make the long, arduous trek from the sofa to the computer to write it up. 

Fun little game. It has some of the usual hiccups you'd expect from a first game, but it also has some funny jokes, a couple of very nice sight gags, and good use of the regular RON cast and locations. The new guy doesn't feel shoved in at all. I hope to see more of Paul's retail adventures in the future. 

Happy Birthday to Texas gal SarahLiz (yee haw) and also to m0ds. 

I'm very sorry for your loss, Peder. 

if only someone will customize that awards ceremony irc system to be a permanent in-game café where you can meet with AGS team members pixel to pixel....

Yes. Someone make this happen. All my cow ever gets to do is dance in the corner. She needs to get out and meet people. 

Kconan forgot to mention that Bolt Action is the only AGS freeware game that comes in a box!


This game is a clear winner for "Best AGS Game In A Box" 

I bet CakeModule won't work with 2.72. 

Happy birthday, SSH. Be sure to blow out all the candles on your haggis.

I don't care if it's written in Assembler, Java, C, C++ or Sanskrit. I'm a C# person myself and I even use AGS on occasion.

Go FORTRAN or go home! 

If you're not going to live stream your wedding, then you should wait and get married at the next Mittens. Pixel Hunt could play music, SSH could perform the ceremony, Grundy could throw the bachelor party.

It would be the best Mittens ever.
