AGI Developer Site

[Nick Sonneveld]

Ok, I've finally got around to obtaining a domain name and setting up this new site I've been working on.. It's basically meant to be a storage of all the AGI tutorials and other development tools to help people create their own games.  Take into account the fact it's fairly new so there's bound to be a few bugs.  The design needs work too but it's functional.

AGI Development Site

If you need a site to host some information on your latest agi tools or tutorials, you could always email me the info and I can post it to the site.  I don't think I'd be able to let users to upload data by themselves yet..

Any comments would be cool.

Wow that's pretty cool. Are you going to upload finished fanmade AGI games and things like that also?

[Nick Sonneveld]

I think everybody else is doing a good job of that.  I just want this site to concern agi development.. so I'll upload tutorials and tools to make games.

[Chris Cromer]

Lots of sites do already have fan games for download. I think I should start adding more tools to my site as well. I guess that is something to do for the next update.

[Nick Sonneveld]

why not game reviews?  or walkthroughs.. that way each site would be different.

I already have a tool page for AGI development, I was just thinking about adding some more.

Not a bad idea, I was thinking about doing both walkthrough's and UHS's for the games. Maybe I could do interviews or something as well.

Nick - Wow! Thats a really good site. Nicely formatted pages with loads of useful information. Good job!

- though my opinions are probably biased since you did put a screenshot of my game on the homepage

Hopefully I'll be able to keep on adding to it.  Thanks for the kind comments.  If I can use the site to drum up more interest for AGI, that would be great.  ie, if somebody asks how you make an agi game.. you could point them to agidev.com instead of several sites.

Hows Time Quest going?  have you had time to work on it?  Would it be possible for you to add your game to the Crow's Nest game list?  I was going to fill in the gaps myself but I didn't want to associate myself with all the games.  Magic Poultry pointed this site out.

Hows Time Quest going?  have you had time to work on it?

Thanks for asking  
I've been adding to it every now and then. At the moment, the next demo is about one third complete. Though, I still haven't fully designed the end of the demo (so thats slowing me down a bit).

Would it be possible for you to add your game to the Crow's Nest game list?

I'd be happy to but looking at the list of games on the site, aren't they all finished games? Do you know if partially completed games can be added?

Chad

[Nick Sonneveld]

Both games and engines have been submitted without being completely finished.  Some don't even have a demo yet.

You've got a fairly lengthy demo and a website.. so I think you should right to add Time Quest to the list.  It would be great because it would add more exposure to AGI..

Hey Nick the link up there says "The Crow's Next" shouldn't say Nest?

[Nick Sonneveld]

umm...

[Nick Sonneveld]

Thanks Chad!  It's very much appreciated!

[Nick Sonneveld]

I've updated the downloads page and fully stocked it up. The whole site should be more useful now

- Nick

[Nick Sonneveld]

The community section is now up, links to the messageboard, irc, webrings and mailing lists are available.  The history of the msgboard is a bit shaky and I'd like more help with that.

Besides maybe some example games for the site.. I might start working on some other things now that the site is more useful.
