Hi everyone!

I have a little question about inventory items/window. Normally inventory isn't a problem, but this time I want to organize items on my inventory this way:

Where the "I's" are the inventory items. The problem is I don't know how to place the items in the inventory in their correspondent "space". I mean I know how to change item height and item width but that doesn't work beause the space is not always the same. For example between item 1 and item 2 there is not the same space than between item 2 and item 3. I try to "artificially" put a transparent space in the sprite image of the item but that doesn't work either because I don't know the order the player will to pick up the objects.

Is there any way to solve this problem? Maybe "segmenting" the inventory window into multiple windows of the same inventory? Or maybe I have to change this GUI and make a more convenient one?

Glad to see so much activity this last days! For a moment I was afraid I had submitted a weird theme. I have played the game of lapsking and hopefully now I'll waiting for the Kastchey one 

Nevermind! I was able to solve it myself 

Nice lapsking! I'll give your game a try these days.

Correct! 
You are the next one!

The dark eye?

[The Death of Oceanspirit Dennis]

My thoughts and feedback:

The Death of Oceanspirit Dennis by Ponch:

Spoiler

Since it's the first episode of OD that I have played, maybe 'The death of...' it's not the best way to start the saga. The intro was funny though and I liked the animations and music. Sadly I'm very bad at jump/plataform games, and I wasn't able to finish it. Sorry Ponch!

Flash McCoy by ddavey1983:

Spoiler

Nice classical graphic adventure. I like the retro graphics style, the animations, the atmosphere... and the puzzles were right. The only weird thing is that I can't find the way to save the game (and there's an option to load) but this being a short game wasn't really a big problem. Enjoyable!

My vote is for:

Flash McCoy. Mainly because I like adventure-ish games and the game is well made! The ending makes me want to play the sequel.

I have the same problem with AGS 3.5.1.15

Nice and fun game! 

Thanks to everyone! I have an idea for July MAGS theme!

Nice review, Heltenjon!

"...and I had to use the help function to find the last one."

Don't worry, that's what the help function is for

There were some red herrings that I spent some time

Don't get me wrong but... nice to read that, because it was done on purpose! 

I had a problem when I restarted the game with the mouse cursor turning invisible, although reinstalling solved that.[/spoiler]

Yes, it's a minor bug I have fixed later. To be fair with ddavey1983, and with rules, when the voting is over I'll update the entry.

or in a language where the word "teeth" is used that way.

Honestly, I don't think the problem is in the word "teeth" since even in english, metaphorically speaking, a key has teeth, but with the bark and guard the temple thing. I guess, maybe I'm wrong, it's some kind of confuse analogy with a watchdog, I don't speak chinesse. But I totally agree with you, it's the lowest point of my game. I was too lazy and looked for a riddle on the internet instead of making one myself.

I missed this problem, it exists even in 3.5.1, which is very unfortunate. So it has to be fixed there too, and a new patch must be released.

Strange, I used the change game translation function in AGS 3.5.1 for Another Museum and it works without problem.

Nice to see people playing this MAGS games! 
I can only speak for myself but any feedback/thoughts are always welcome!

Did you see the comments that I posted a week and a half ago?

Yes, and since it's my first MAGS it's much appreciated!

[big problem]

Art looks very very good! It reminds me Spirited Away!

But I have a big problem with the demo: it doesn't even start, I only see a white room with a character that doesn't move although I can hear it's footsteps.

Notice: I have detected, and fixed, some minor bugs (related how I managed the cursors) but I will not publishing it until MAGS May votation finishes.

Nice one! I see the Day of Tentacle inspiration too, specially in the sewer scene. I like the drawing style, muy lindo.

Glad you have managed to finish the game! Yes, the riddle it's too much confusing.  It's an ancient chinesse riddle I get from a worldwide riddles webpage, and somehow it made sense to me... but now that I think about it, you're both right. I'll keep it in mind for future work

Nice! For a moment I was afraid of being the only one to submit an entry.
