It's a bugs life

Help little bug Bert make his way to his family's new home, a shed at the bottom of the garden.

As most gardens go it is filled with assorted characters. Some will help you and some will eat you!

You soon find out who your friends are...

A little invisibility would help...

"This mystery thickens."

On the french site....

2.5 SCORE = 50 (A score is 20 and .5 is a half of a score = 10.. So slider A goes to 50).. Base the other 2 sliders on this...

[The Gourmet]

Congrats to all who managed to reach the finish line...

I've now played and tested all games and voted.

The Gourmet by Slasher

Spoiler

Fun story, but too little interaction for the player.
I felt mostly like watching an interactive novel where you click a couple times to move forward. And the interactions that were there felt a bit like "no matter what I do, it's the right thing to do".

There are two possible endings when choosing the wine for the last course..

And I did mention:

This is more of a cultural experience than a game although there are a few interactive elements along the way like choosing items from a menu.

I am kind of stuck towards the end of the game.

Spoiler

I can't figure out how to set the controls to kill hitler and his people in the cryogenic machine

. I would appreciate any hints.

Thanks,
Michael

Do the maths on the control panel gui ie 2.5 Score= ? for the first slider

This is possible; for instance there's a speech bubble module available on a french AGS forum.

afaik someone has tweaked the Phylactere module to now accept speech...

Haha what a lovely idea for a game!  Have you used the original dialogue in this?

Not 100% exactly... The sort of phrases I used were close alternatives... Did not want to plagiarizer too much

------------------- November's MAG: 'Contest' by Riaise -------------------

The Gourmet A cultural experience of an adapted 50's comedy radio show. Download The Gourmet

Background: Those that remember Hancock's Half Hour will understand the comedic content. The series was written by the great duo Galton and Simpson between 1954 and 1961. The show started off on radio and it is this period that I chose to pay homage to the show. The episode I chose was called 'The Gourmet' and as far as I am aware it was never made for television. The script for this game has been adapted and amended to suit the game idiom. This is more of a cultural experience than a game although there are a few interactive elements along the way like choosing items from a menu. Put the dog out, draw the curtains, Sit back, relax and indulge in pure comedy genius....

Characters: There are three central Characters: * Tony * Sid * Bill Tony is a short, stout man who owns a terraced house in Cheam. He is a bachelor and lives alone. He has a lower than average intellect but fantasizes that he has a much higher intellect and believes he knows about things more than others. He believes he knows about Kipling, Byron, Shakespeare, Dickens and about all the famous artists when in fact he knows very little apart from what he's read in Reader's Digest. He has very few friends as they can see right through him. This never stops him trying to impress people. He often lodges out rooms to people so he can 'educate' them in the finer points of food, art and literature. Sid is a street-wise man who has been around the block a few times. He is a wheeler and dealer and is often involved in petty crimes though nothing major. He lodges with Tony as the rent is cheap and he can often wrap Tony around his finger. He often gets Tony involved in his schemes which generally fail much to Tony's bemusement. Bill is an Australian and is a 'Tag along' man who has very few friends and often tags along with who ever he can. Ever since he met Sid in a boozer he has tagged along with him. He often falls in with Sid's schemes. He also lodges with Tony from time to time. Tony hates Bill calling him 'Tubs' which he does every time.

Story Line: Sid meets a man in a pub who is a promoter of eating contests. Sid's mind immediately draws to Tony who loves food and says he is a gourmet. Always looking for a quick buck Sid talks Tony into entering the eating contest. Enter Steam-Shovel Tony!

Thank you AGA

You can use the StopAnimating();command and check from there.

But as you say, you have quite a few frames.

Khris' solution is neat and a lot less work

How many Frames are there?

Something possibly like this:

After you stop the wheel you could do a Frame check and set it as SetView.

Code: ags

}
if(!wheel.Animting) // when you have stopped the wheel
   if(Frame==0){ 
   oWheel SetView(6,0,0)// Will show oWheel View 6 Loop 0 Frame 0. oWheel being what your object name or ID}
}
   else if(Frame==1){ 
   oWheel SetView(6,0,1)// Will show oWheel View 6 Loop 0 Frame 1. oWheel being wjat your object name or ID}

 // etc etc
}
}

It does not seem to make any difference.

The game still shows up on my profile of games...

Perhaps MOD will look into it for me..

Cheers guys ,

If it was not for the good Captain pushing the issue i don't know if I would have released this game.

Credits appear on the last screen.

I will add more detail to them.

Any issues found will be fixed in a later build.

Hi

I searched: slasher and The Gourmet does not show up on list and page 2 goes to other games..

Though it does by search game Name.

[Conspiracy: Below-Zero]

Conspiracy: Below-Zero

After 10 months on the back burner this game has finally been released...

FBI agents Malden and Leech try to conclude another baffling conspiracy case that the government won't acknowledge.

This conspiracy involves a myth that Hitler was frozen in an ice chamber (known as project 'Below -Zero') to be brought back in a future time. It was body doubles who committed suicide in the bunker that fateful day on 29th April 1945.

A letter arrives at the FBI claiming that the myth is in fact true.

Who is the mysterious smoking guy?

Did Hitler really die in the bunker that day? Is project 'Below zero' just a myth?

"The truth is here. Trust no one. We are ready to believe."

* Are claims made by Dr Otto Gunter true?
* Who is the mysterious 'Smoking' Man?
* Can you thwart being fed to the sharks?
* Does the ice chamber really exist?
* Playable Jukebox with various songs.
* Fully voiced.
