I have a post for "The Quest To Zooloo" on the "Completed Games Forum":
http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=20862.0

Thanks, I'll make a banner.

How do I get people to host my game?

My game is very high quality.
How long does it take to distribute itself?

How do I get sites to review the game?

Making money:
The game is extraordinary & well made, it is a long game, it has innovative puzzles,
and a original story.
There may be a few bugs left, but If I need to, I can work hard and find them.
And I can allso make any polishing that the company asks for.
I think the game is top-notch except for maybe the unpercise walkbehinds. (which allso isn't a big problem to fix)

How do I find a good company that creates CD's for me with a good payment system?

Can my game be comercial game and a freeware game?
cuz I allways will want to provide a free download...

[Speech/Talkie Recording]

Very Important: If you decide to use something ready of mine, don't forget to tell me about it and don't forget to write credits for what you used!

Speech/Talkie Recording
I am looking for a full adventure game to change into a Full Talkie.
I can do voices for any characters: Male/Female, Animals, Monsters, etc.
I can allso participate as one voice in an adventure but I perfer to do all the voices.
(It's more fun and challenging )

Music
I have over 1 giga of original mp3's. (Very good stuff for games)
You can use my ready made music freelly.
If you want I can send you by mail 2 cd's of mp3's (21 full albums)
but you should here some of my music first from "The Quest To Zooloo".
You can download the mp3's at my site (It is moving to a different hosting company so It will be down for a few days)
www.YotamElal.com
I don't want to make music especially for a game (unless I can get paid).


I can allso provide character and animals from "The Quest To Zooloo"
Silly (Main Character)
Funny Frogs
Wierd Chikcens
Cool Flies
Basically if your interested in somthing from my game, I can give you the sprites, mp3's, and the code of that particular thing.

How can I promote my finished game?

Publishing?

Making Money?

Good Links?

Other Ideas?

Stefano:

Man! I was about to start my first game one of these days, but I must confess I'm not excited about it anymore. These bugs keep poppig up! Eeeek!

The bugs are frustrating but they are going to stop soon.
When your game comes to life, it's worth all the debuging.

fish.
Now it resets itself corectly when you leave the room.
There wont be any need to turn on and off all the teeth.
And instead of one click making you leave the screen, now it's three clicks (makes it a little easier.

[I am looking for help:]

I am looking for help:
1. Does anyone want to write an English walkthrough?
2. Does anyone want to make a hint system for the game using "AGS Hint System v1.45"?
3. Does anyone want to make a Hebrew version of the game?
Ã,  Ã, I will supply the speech mp3's, the hebrew sprites, and a hebrew font.


If any of you want to use something from "The Quest To Zoolo" in your game, I will provide it for free.
I can provide the following:
Graphics: Only graphics from Ã, "The Quest To Zooloo".
Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã, So if you wanna use silly or any other character or animal, you can.
Music: I have alot to choose from. (over 1GB of original mp3's)
Speech: If you have a cool finished game, I can do voices for characters or animals.

autowill:
1. Yesterday for about two hours I had a problem with the main zooloo.rar (sorry). It's to bad you switched to no sound cuz the sound is a big part of the game. (you should check it out.)

2. The patches of the earlier versions only update the version before them.
Since 1.1 I have made the patches update any version.

3. Yes, I thought of making a sequal of "Silly Saves Zooloo". (but I need to rest abit first  ) (if I get enough good feedback I probobly will make the sequal)

[Another little bug (thanks peter):]

1. please use [ hide ] ,Ã,  (like I just posted to peter).

Spoiler

3. The new updates should work if they don't then you should d/l the nosound version again. I checked in my computer & it works on the nosound versions... (maybe you tried an old update or maybe I made a mistake and had at one point an invalid version of zooloo-nosound.rar)
BTW your missing out alot if your playing with no sound.

peter:
1. it is very important to add a a [ hide ] (without the spaces)
and a [ /hide ] (without the spaces)
and write the text between them that way the text is hidden.
you can allso press preview first to see if you did it right.
If you don't it spoils the game for others.

3. Thanks for the bug, I'll get right to it.
can you supply more information?

Spoiler

Are you sure you did it correctly?
Maybe try again... if there is still a problem then send me your saved game and I'll check...  I hope it's not a bug...

Did you just try four patterns you wanted, or did you find a pattern somewhere else in the game and didn't suceed using it?

Rui "Brisby" Pires:
Actually I thought there would be alot more bugs.
And I got so anoyed from all the bug fixing since I started to create my game that it's allready above anoyance. (I had no programming background or anyhting like it)

2 people beat the game, 1 of them beat it twice.
I think that all the major bugs should be all fixed by now and hopefully also the smaller ones to.

If I add any sprites I'll make an alternate update that doesn't update the sprites so that you wont loose your saved games.
I think you should try it...
