In my opinion, you should crank that bass up!

EDIT:

OK, i got help from the master himself.  Apperntly, I forgot about the script header...
silly me  

yeah, i actually did paste it at the very top of the global script.  Thanks, though.

CourtJester is EVIL!!!!

OK, let's get right to it.

I downloaded Geoffkhan's sample game, and I noticed a very smart function that he put in there.  Apparently he makes a function to make the character face left, right, etc...

So I was like "Dude, I am so ripping this."
So I copied it and then I pasted it in my global script:

function faceback () {
FaceLocation(GetPlayerCharacter(),160,-1000);
}
function facefront () {
FaceLocation(GetPlayerCharacter(),160,1000);
}
function faceleft () {
FaceLocation(GetPlayerCharacter(),-1000,100);
}
function faceright () {
FaceLocation(GetPlayerCharacter(),1000,100);
}

So then I tried to implement it in my game:

DisplaySpeech(1, "I'm going to check this out.");
faceright();

I get an "undefined token" error message.
Why is AGS doing this to me?  I can't take it!  I even copied and pasted it all, it should work!

EDIT:  ok.. nothing works.  Geocities sucks, don't it?    Just click on the first link and remove the extra http://

anyway...

I like the style.  I think that you could add just a few textures of something to make the surfaces more interesting to the eye, becasue they look a bit bland.  Like the curtain in that back looks a lot like an extra wall.  I think that some pixelized textures could roughen things up a bit.

[yeah]

Nope, that's not where the name came fr--  I mean, yeah of course that's where it came from!  


Be sure to stick around for updates

Haha this game looks funny

I love those pixelated graphics.  They remind me of my old GBC Pokemon Games or my super old SNES.

I also enjoy the character design.  In my opinion, it's like a mix of Final Fantasy and Apprentice.
It looks like an RPG but it's an adventure game! Spooky!

I can't wait till it's done but I gotta wait another year, hehe.

Hold your breath and wait for this game., sure to be a smash!

And even though It may be small, or short, don't let that make you not want to play!  That just means that there is a lot of care in a 3 room game, rather than medium care in a 20-room game(Not saying that all long games have no care, most of them are awesome.  I'm just sayin, the ones that dont.. nevermind)

Haha.  Sorry about that.
I was half asleep, sorry  

aha!  Thanks!

hmm, how can I do that without messing up the walking wiew?

Thanks to everyone for all the advice!  

Ow! *smack!*  That stick *smack*  is sharp!

It was just a *smack!* joke!  
Aaah!  I have a *smack* sunburn!  Ooch!

I can't show you the backround (because I'm not done yet);
but it is going to go in a
modern-style office, with wood furniture and chrome doors and stuff like that.
The whole music set has a jazz-like feel to it (The game is made for my dad's birthday and he loves jazz.);

dude- just edit your post instead of posting something new 4 times.

Youre lucky I came before Scummbuddy came, he would have turned you into a kabob  

Hey

I just finished a midi file for the main room of my new game.  It's like the first one that I actually put some thought into.  I was wondering if I could get some CC for it.
Tell me how it is:

http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/bumbum2.mid

Everything was done on the computer (My MIDI keyboard dosent work   :'( ); using a guitar-emulator instead of a piano roll (Since I know guitar much more than piano);

Enjoy!

if the landscape on the left is a picture/painting, then I love it-
But if it's a window then I think that you should use "transform" on it just a little so that the perspective fits te perspective of the room.

[Also]

Just when I thought everything was working...

I have a very simple 3-frame "grab" animation.
I thought I was doing everything right, but what do I know?

Here it is:

MoveCharacterBlocking(1, 216, 215, 1);
FaceLocation(1, 216, 220);
Wait(40);
SetCharacterView(1, 11);
AnimateCharacter(1, 0, 10, 0);
ReleaseCharacterView(1);
DisplaySpeech(1, "Jeez, I really need to get these things cleaned one day.");  
Wait(40);
SetCharacterView(1, 11);
AnimateCharacter(1, 0, 10, 0);
ReleaseCharacterView(1);
Wait(40);
DisplaySpeech(1, "Deleted to keep puzzle anonymous");
DisplaySpeech(1, "Don't cheat by reading my speech!");
ObjectOn(6);

Don't tell me to use the character's name instead of number, it dosent work.

Also, I tried to split the script in thirds and do the animation via the interactions editor...
The animation worked but it happens before everything else (even when I put "Quick Animation" after "Run Script");

Thanks to all and all to thank
