I am going to start working on a game based on the first man to land on the moon.. the Apollo 11 flight.
I also want to use "Fly me too the moon" as the main theme song.... I have a question if anyone  knows....
Can I just get anyone to sing the song and use it in my game, or are the lyrics copyrighted? how do music rights work?

Thanks for any advice.

I'm still rather new to working with AGS. however I have noticed a few things that I hope with be fixed/added to the engine.
issues:
1) when you run a game for the first time it defaults to full screen mode, however. full screen mode is not really full screen. the game does not take the entire screen, it is centered with a lot of empty space around the game.
2) the file balloons up rather quickly when you have a game lets say in 800x600 mode with complex images, liked 3d rendered characters and background.
3) if you want to animate the background you are limited to 5 frames.

hopeful solution/additions:
1) full screen mode should automatically scale the game to take up the entire screen. and the game should default to window mode if possible( without the need to run setup).
2) instead of using rle or what ever method you use to save the images. save them in png format, and when the game starts convert them to rle(if needed for speed) in memory.
3) why not add the ability to load a video and loop it in the background... if there is an improved method of compressing images, and then this might not be needed... but it would still be a nice feature to have.

Thanks.

Hi I decided to make a very short/simple game somewhat based on Sierra's Mystery House.
I did this to test AGS game making out.

Please download and test it out.

Thanks

OK, AGS friends... this is my first AGS game.
I took the approaches that games are interactive movie, so, there are many cut scenes. and a great deal of close up angles,
and voice acting(which I still need some more voice actors) on the game play. etc...

NOTE: this is early stage video & screen shots....
