Game I'm making

Post by tassieboy » Thu Jan 06, 2011 2:23 am

I might as well share what I've been working on in here. I'm using Adeventure Game Studio to put together a game inspired by my childhood Sierra memories. I've been working on it for a year or so wheneverI get a spare minute.

I'm not very graphically inclined so it looks pretty crap, but it's abit of fun.

The plot focuses on a widowed, retired detective on a space cruise - on his way to meet his newly born grandson on a colony world. On the voyage he encounters a number of mysteries which all tie together.

Graphics are indeed a bit minimal, but the premise seems interesting and I always like playing as a detective, so chances are I'll probably like it! :D

Hey, that looks like fun! Maybe I could whip you up some shipboard art!

Sounds like a good idea for a game. I can't wait to play it.

Thanks everyone for the positive comments.

That's a generous offer BBP. I should warn you though, that I'm up to 63 rooms in the game so far so to update all of them would be a big undertaking. Alternatively you could help with the rooms yet to be drawn, or after I've finished this one we could start a new game which you could do graphics for.

In any case, I'll send you a playable demo of what I've done so far and the source images.
