I made a little joke-gift in AGS for my lovely and beautiful girlfriend.
It's called "Honey, What Will It Be Tonight" and it's kamasutra related...
Nothing special, just funny and very applicable in daily life 
Some of might will recognize the used background [there not from me].
If interested: DL here.

Does anyone know a good "laser and mirrors" puzzle game for download, preferably a freeware version?
I once had a DOS version of such a game which was awesome but lost it and don't remember the name of it.

This is a good one called 'Yet Another Laser Game' but it's but shareware:


This one, called Reflections,   is also a cool version but it's an online flash game...

Any ideas?

["The Walking Dead"]

What are your thoughts of the new horror-drama tv serie "The Walking Dead".
So far I've really enjoyed the first 2 parts, awesome. It also gave me the feeling watching a great Stephen King movie.

Plot: Cast on the popular comic book series by Robert Kirkman, the series follows Rick Grimes and a band of survivors trying to seek a safe haven during a zombie uprising.

Based on the comic book series of the same name written by Robert Kirkman and published by Image Comics.

Frank Darabont is the director & screenwriter of this tv-serie and has also done The Woman in the Room (1983), The Shawshank Redemption (1994), The Green Mile (1999) & The Mist (2007), all great Stephen King movies.

RoN - The Outbreak aka RoN - Day of [the?] Comet:

Why is this game not listed on the official RON site? Is it not an 'official' RON game?

[Can someone clear this up for me please?]

Which versions exist of the game The Adventures of Fatman?

*I do have a copy [58.8Mb] with manual. [dating 2003-05]. I think it's the full version with no speech...
This version seems to be released under the freely distributed Creative Commons license.
So does that mean that this version freeware?

*here is the commercial one in the database.
I guess that one has speech. Is this version available as freeware too?

*Then there is also a remastered special edition re-release.
I guess this version is not freeware?

Are there more versions?
Are there demo's around?

Can someone clear this up for me please?

[Leon]

This is the total list of AGS games I know of that has been released.
Total count: 1495 games.

Included: demo's, compo games [MAGS & OROW] AND regular games.
Excluded: hourgames.

Still have to check all the RON games though...

Hugh thanx to Leon for his info.
Thanx for other members for helping out finding games that are not in the gamedatabase [thanx GG]

This list contains 307 AGS games that are not in the gamedatabase. 14 of them are demo's.

At the end the idea is that all these games will permanently be hosted on Peders agsarchives.com for download.

If anyone know of a game or demo that's not in this list: please let me know!!

The big screenshot image can still be found here.

I've posted the list in txt table format now in post nr. 9, 10 & 11 because it doesn't fit in one post:

[MAGS 2001-12, Theme: Christmas, Entries:]

Hey all,

A question: To complete my database I stumbled accross something weird:
Why is there, according to the official MAGS page, no winner for the following MAGS:

MAGS 2001-12, Theme: Christmas, Entries:
   GameID:46: Jingle Bells - An X-Mags Game by Magintz.
   GameID:68: Christmas Tale, A DEMO by Mark Lovegrove.

MAGS 2002-09, Theme: Male And Female, Entries:
   No GameID: Mystery of Hackenslash Island, The by Necro
 GameID:114: Demonslayer 3 - Hotel and Alley by Squinky
 GameID:117: Digital Spell, The by JRP

Can someone explain this please.
Thanx  

[Question 1:]

Question 1:
The MAGS game MAGS Greg's Mountainous Adventure aka Greg's Monumental Adventure [by LilGryphMaster]
gives the following crash report:

---------------------------
Adventure Game Studio
---------------------------
An internal error has occured. Please note down the following information.
If the problem persists, contact Chris Jones.
(ACI version 2.40.321)

Error: roomstruct::allocall: out of memory

---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

Any idea why it crashes?
Tried without music and speech and windowed+lowest resolution. It still crashes.

Question 2:
In the game database the game name = MAGS Greg's Mountainous Adventure
On the MAGS site the game name = Greg's Monumental Adventure
Does anyone know which name is the proper one?
I can't check since the game crashes

Thanx.

I'm sure there are more, so it would be great if you help me find more of these

I have 2 different versions of The Shiva:

1. The Shivah - [MAGS] [15.0 Mb], from the MAGS CD.
2. The Shivah - [Demo] [30.7 Mb], the downloadable demo from the gamedatabase page.

So, is the 1st one the Original version and the 2nd one the Deluxe Demo version  
Can someone explain?

How can I change this code so that the object is only drag'n'Dropped left or right?

Code: ags

function room_RepExec()
{
  if (mouse.IsButtonDown(eMouseLeft)) {
    if (button_pressed==0) {
      button_pressed = 1;
      ob = Object.GetAtScreenXY(mouse.x, mouse.y);
    }
  } 
  else {
    button_pressed=0;
    if (ob!=null) {
      ob=null;
    }
  }
  if (ob != null) {
    int width  = Game.SpriteWidth[ob.Graphic];
    int height = Game.SpriteHeight[ob.Graphic];
    ob.SetPosition(mouse.x-width/2, mouse.y+height/2);  
}
}

[Download 'Blockz [Demo]' here]

BLOCKZ [Demo]

My first AGS game
A sliding puzzle like the classic board game Rush Hour.
This demo contains 13 playable levels.

v1.3:

• Level 09: 'Pageup/down key slider' bug fixed.
  
• Level 13: Room-load bug fixed.
  v1.2:
  
• Level 03 'Home/Delete key slider' bug fixed.
  
• Level 05 'page up/down key slider'bug fixed.
  
• Level 12 'unable to enter level 13' bug fixed.
  v1.1:
  
• Level 11 'shift key slider' bug fixed.
  

Download 'Blockz [Demo]' here

When starting a new level the game will be auto-saved.
When starting an already unlocked level, the game will not save.
When starting the game it will auto-restore the savegame, bringing you to the start of last played level.
A level will be unlocked when you finish it  .
You can replay unlocked levels by the level select menu, just click the on-screen star-button.
You can reset a level by using the on-screen circle-with-arrow-button.
Quit the game by clicking the on-screen Q-button.

Shortkey's:
L = Level Select
Q = Quit game

This demo still contains placeholders like for example the mouse pointer.
The next & previous buttons in the level select screen are not yet enabled since there's only one screen yet.

Screens:
Level 2:                                                                            Level select:


Comments please...

Enjoy  

Can't find it on the forum: is there a max amount of buttons on a gui and if so, what is the amount?

Can porting a freeware iphone game to pc give any copyright problems?

Are there any AGS games released or in production which are actually
ported games [from other platforms to PC using the AGS engine]?

[Graphic Adventures, the Book:]

Read this?

Graphic Adventures, the Book:


Did you love to play graphic adventures as much as I did, and want to
learn more about them? The book Graphic Adventures  is the mostly
correct history of the adventure game classics by Lucasfilm, Sierra and
others, from the pages of Wikipedia. The book features the tales
behind games like Loom, Labyrinth, Mystery House, Maniac Mansion,
Space Quest, The Secret of Monkey Island, King's Quest, Myst, Zork
Nemesis and Leisure Suit Larry.

The book was based on the pages of Wikipedia articles, which were
edited and added to. Many game creators, like Al Lowe, David Fox
and Peter Langston, are interviewed and provide further historical
background on these games.

Download the digital editable version.

I have some code for the "function oBlock0_AnyClick()" in my room script.
In the same room I have this same function for "function oBlock1_AnyClick()" untill "function oBlock7_AnyClick()".

If I'm understanding it right I can place this function 1 time in the global script in stead
of several times in the roomscript for all the "oBlock'x'_AnyClick()" functions in that room.

I can't figure out how to do this.

Any help?
