Out with the old and in with the new, may God bless us all, that our resolutions become true!

Happy New 2010 Year everyone!

like, young kids now are going to look back fondly on their Bioshocks and Mass Effects as the "golden era" of video gaming, because those are the games they played during their formative years. That statement is so true! Kids these days, (between 10 - 28 years old,) see the classics in a ...

Let's start a discussion on this topic.

My first website I ever made was on GeoCities... so glad those days are gone.

If you want to be famous on Youtube you need to have a song and dance routine. (Chugging bottled water, scaring your cat, and viewing UFOs just won't cut it.) Add a little more creativity to your videos and possibly better quality too, (they are highly compressed which make them painful to watch.) S...

I just watched Captain N a few nights ago on Netflix... They even have Zelda which was your classic early 90's cheese. Cartoons have come a long way.

One of my all-time-favorites was The Real Ghostbusters.

I post on occasions but it seems my last one was deleted. ???

What is IA Forums? (Sorry, I'm a noob)

Thanks BT, that is really helpful too. I hope to see more input from others out there that love to design games in AGS. (Every little bit helps.)

Looking forward to more helpful hints, advice, or just general game design talk.

Thanks Erpy! What about graphics programs, sound editors, and such? Which ones have less learning curves and those with steep ones?

And how about the actual thought process from start to finish -- before you even touch the computer??

I was wondering how everyone here makes games in AGS... please place any of your practices or thoughts on your process from start to finish. Include tools you use and resources to those tools, (if you have them.) It can be a fan game or an original game. This can be somewhat of a resource thread for...

This is a hard question to answer. It's like comparing apples to apples. Sierra On-line created so many more games than LucasArts... but the ratio of good games seems to be pretty even-steven. I'd say it was a tie. I can't, truthfully in good conscience, decide which is the better adventure game des...

I have a bias towards 3D. Why? Because I watched cartoons in the 80's and 90's. Even the games Sierra On-line and LucasArts created had a lot of 'cartoon' element to them. I'm all about cartoons. 3D can be cool, but not when you are trying to be consistent with a series that is mainly cartoon/2D-dri...

THE FUTURE IS NOW!

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009! (already)

What are your resolutions for this new year?
- I need to play the most awesome classic adventures... and beat them!
- I need to make a game... period!
- My weight seems to be a problem too... need to slim down.

Thanks man, I'm happy you like it. Stay tuned... more to come!

Has anyone had any problems reading my blog? Let me know if you do. Thanks for reading!

Blogs have been around for quite a few years now, and I figured it was about time I jumped on the bandwagon. I probably have nothing more to say than the average Joe, concerning adventure games, but it keeps me out of trouble, gives me something to do, and it's something I enjoy talking about. If an...

Chris, thank you so much! I've been looking forward to this remake since the very beginning. I too, love the series after buying the anthology collection many years ago. I feel now the full series is COMPLETE! My sincerest congratulations goes to you especially because you dreamed it, worked it for ...

I agree!

And thank you so much for putting in the "classic" string parser! (Some of us old guys require more to get excited.)
I played it with my 4 year old daughter last night... awesome!

Wow, I've waited 5 years for this! Kudos to the developing team! What an accomplishment! Haven't played it yet, but i will soon... very soon!

Thanks again ADGI #1 and ADGI #2 (I love the fact that you both were personified in this game.)

Looking forward to this beta to be released to the public. I want to announce it on my website... this will be a great moment.

You can now buy the whole King's Quest Series for XP!!! My wife bought it for me for my 31st B-day. Ah the memories and the old school stuff on my new machine.

Click here to see where you can buy it.

Wow! That is pretty cool. I never thought about VGA-ifying an old EGA image before... I sense an inspiration to do it is filling into my brain!  ;)
