When did you make (or tried to make) your first AGI game?
My first project was splitscreen 2-player cops and robbers game. It was a cool project, but I didn't finish it, mainly because I got bored (and problem, when one player went to another room, then animations for the other player were canceled, which I couldn't pass). Anyway it was a good idea and I maybe try to remake it, now in SCI.

The first game I really worked on was V. I had mostly just did test stuff before then to learn AGI.

Well, we are still working on our first AGI try called Freddy I... we are recently redrawing some of the graphics because they were really bad in the beginning, by the time we are finished we will probably think those graphics are really bad and redraw them again... That's the problems when projects don't get finished quickly  ::)

My first game in AGI was Al Pond 1: Al lives forever. (Crappy graphic). After that came Ed Ward (Co-programmer). Oliver maybe you should finish it?

Maybe. I have thought about it. I still remember a little of the story. But one thing: You weren't the co-programmer in Ed Ward you just helped me (a lot).
You were the Co-programmer in Lefty but not in Ed Ward. :P

Ok, I wasn't!  Anyway, does anyone has a Ed Ward demo somewhere? Or is it lost forever?

Well, professional agi games are an extinct species, so I dunno. I generally assume fans who make agi games do so to relive the gaming hype that existed in the late 80's and early 90's. You know the era, where all the great computer games were made, not like those crappy 3d games they make today that require insanely steep requirements on computer processors, memory and video cards and don't have much replay value once you beat it. Well, okay, there were some crappy games during the time period I mentioned above, but they weren't far off from being masterpieces. All games from that time were pioneers in one way or another and set standards for a lot of games today. Well it's enough to make one nostalgic. I know I am and that's why I'm here.

Anyways...I'm starting to sound like grandpa on the simpsons or any show that had some old fart starting sentences with, "When I was your age..." or something like that. As far as I know, in my spare time, I'm still struggling with ideas for my first agi game. I think my problem is that I'm getting visions of grandeur and I'm getting a little over my head with ideas that are a bit too far fetched to attempt a first game. I need an idea or lead that'll make something of good quality but isn't too difficult to pull off, any ideas?

Uh...  I started Voodoo Girl a little over a year ago and finished it in December of 2002...  so, sometimes games get finished...


However, I originally created a much shorter, cruder demo as a rough draft.  It only had five screens, a few sprites (views), and there wasn't much to do...  however, it encapsulated the basic mission.

For those of y'all who are having trouble pulling through, make a rough draft.  Write down a story on paper...  make it fit on a single side of a single piece of paper.  This is your "focus".  Refer to it constantly and you will find your work much more...  um...  focussed.
I hope you realize that one day I will devour the Earth.
