Thanks for the advice fluxmaster. This exspect this game to  look professional. But I will try my best.
If you can get the geometry correct, your game will look very professional.
I have never been good with the geometry but like i said I will try my best.

:o  Yikes!! Yes that's right. AGS stand for Adventure Game Studio not Adventure Game Software. My manly mistake there.

Will the bathroom walls have graffiti on them?  Here are a couple of suggestions:

Most of my screenshots images  displays what is inside Fribbi' house but they are almost getting ready and after that I am gonna paint everything outside from the house.

Once again I repeat am not a arcitect but I am really getting to like those images even tho I painted them. I have added more inventory stuff and object for the game. Like dagger, meat, scissor and toiletpaper and many more. I have now finished to progam the most importand GUI options but I think I need to add more GUI options for this game.

I have only created two original music for the game but I am not sure what other musics I could add for the game. I have found some really good musics from the Internet wich could fit perfectly for the game but I am not sure if I am allowed to use it but if I can get it for free maybe I should not have any worry about that issue. But if I must, create a  original musics then it will take me longer time to work on this game.

That's all I can say now about my own game. May you enjoy the summer or whatever. :D

CRAZY  (edited by Fribbi)

Crazy ... I'm crazy for feelin' so lonely
I'm crazy .(true).. crazy for working on' this bigbluecup adventure game version  
I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted,
And then someday, you'd leave me for some new game like Quest for Glory 2 VGA

Worry ... why do I let myself worry?
Wonderin' ... what in the world did I do to you?
Oh, The Black Sky ... for thinkin' that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for tryin', and crazy for cryin'
And I'm crazy for being still working for ' you

Crazy ... for thinkin' that my love could still hold you
I'm crazy for tryin', and crazy for cryin'
And I know I'm crazy for working for ' you

im new to game development however im not new to writting scripts for short films and then making them. and in this aspect the two industries are the same. what you need to do is to create a plot summery for your game as well as artistic designs. basically you need to get your characters designed. make maps of the entire area the game takes place. and probably sme designs on anything else thats special to the game. then what you need to do is to stick to it. if you constantly revise character models and buildings throughout the game then you will just keep going in an endless loop. You seem to have gotten to learn you way around using poser so basically you should be able to shape out some of your main characters now. however if your going for the 3d look for your characters you should try going for a 3d look with your environments as well rather than ms paint. This wil unify character and background properly.

That MP3 file you posted contains a terrible curruption of the song Mr. Lonely, with a rapper mouthing some musicless words between badly sung choruses.

The original version of the song was an excellent 1960's Vietnam-era song about a lonely soldier in Vietnam, by Mr. Bobby Vinton.  You can read the original lyrics and hear a MIDI verion of the song by clicking here.

I haven't heard the original in a long time, and it was quite pleasant to find that web page and listen to the MIDI version.  I have deleted the MP3 file; it's just horrible.

If you've never heard the original, then perhaps you might like the newer version.  But try listening to the original.  It's quite a nice song, and you may like it better.

Wow three guest has arrived here in this week. And I thought I was left here alone hehe. :lol

Some of the character will be on 3D. I don't have a good tool to create proffesional backgrounds and characters like AGDI has. Like Paintshop or something like that.

So the background will have some EGA/VGA style. But trust me it really works ok in this game. I know I have to edit some pictures much better but nobody is perfect. I have downloaded games that has much worser background images and badly painted characters than I have created but it really works ok to me. I have being focusing more on the room wich is suppose to be inside Mr.Frbbi Lonely house and when I have finally finish created all rooms for that I will start to create what is on the outside near the  house. Like the shops, markets, library and some other stuff.

I can't explain what the game is about right now because I am always changing my plot ideas. At least I know this game will have some SIMS style. I have so little time when I am working on this game so I am trying to work on this as best as I can. The game size now is about 40mb with voices and music together. So I am always thinking about what shall I cut off from the game so the gamesize can be smaller.

So that's why I have to split this game into chapter after chapter version.

I have heard the news that I can create 3D area with AGS and if that will be possible. I can then make all of  the rooms I have created so far into 3D areas.

actually you just need to be carefull with how you create your regions and you can easily use a 3d image for a background. http://www.elfpro3d.com/Game/ shows the possibilities...
EDIT
or should i say a 2d image of a 3d scene

I ment I can let the character walk  like in a 3d game. And sure I will try as possible as I can to let it look like 3D.

Ok I know this is not very good picture but this sketch is the map plan of the house inside. I already know I need to add something more on it.

               

                          Image

I have edited many bullshit from myself what I said here earlier and deleted some images. But the main reason is I have cancel everything about the story. This is not a fight game any longer. Just a normal quest "pick up and use" game.

So this is no longer about strong guy against Wizard and orcs. I have even cancelled adding voice to that game. This game will be just a short game. I am no expert on gamemaking and this game will be free for everyone. I have no time to waste my time on gamemaking anymore so I am trying to use every spare time I can have but after I have finally finish this game I will quit making more game. The Black sky will be my only game. The game are almost getting ready. I had to cut some image from that game to make the game shorter and lower the size of the game.

I had already painted over 40 images but I had to remove some of them.
I am really sorry about this.

I have actually no idea what this game will be about. I have just being painting what should be inside Fribbi house. That's all about what I can say about my game. My interest on this game is getting lower in each day.
Someday I am thinking about quiting this bullshit but I really want to finish this game for you. I guess I am just getting to tired, old and grumpier when I am working on this game.

Maybe it was a stupid idea when I wanted to do this game. But I really wanted to try to make my first game. But I just hate it when I have no idea what I am suppose to do with this game. Maybe I should just leave it and play others game instead trying to make my own. |I

I know many of will think: What the main character are again in VGA not in 3D. But this is much better for me to draw with. The room has a 3D area but not the character. I am really sorry about that.

I know I am crazy and always thinking about many crazy unpossible ideas how my game should look but but I just can't do it. Not alone. I have so few  times to waste on this game. I just want to finish this game as fast as I can now.

The game are almost getting ready. I just need to fix the story just a little more and add some more objects to play with. The game will maybe be released after 2 or 3 weeks if things goes right. I have compleated all of the backgrounds images I will use for this game so I don't have to show any more images here from the game now.

I actually prefer the 2d sprite to the 3d sprite. Good luck with the game. I'll definitely play it once it's ready.
