Ok folks! I'm finally back into mzxing! And so now I can continue my big project. Basically this is a comedy Item-Adventure game, it's gonna be pretty long, and pretty hard, and have lots of secrets and path choice, it's almost all mapped out.

At the moment though, I'm looking for someone who is:

a) Decent with Graphics (Not neccessarily GREAT but decent)
b) Interested in helping with testing and stuff

Basically these are the two things that keep making me shy away from this project, having to always test and re-test everything to make sure it's all continuous, and to have to stay on the one same board for a while to make sure it looks half decent, it's not that im bad with graphics, it's just that i want to get on with actually making the game.

So if you fall into the above two categories, and want to help me out with this game (You will get to see everything as it's made if you want) then send me a PM or reply here. You will of course get credit where it's due!

Screenshots and tasters to follow at some point!

Here are some screenshots and other tidbits! The graphics are lacking but I intend to figure those out afterwards with someone. Content is most important right? :-)

Posted Image

The Hat Club, a nefarious organisation, they play an important part in the game!

Posted Image

A building roof, looks pretty crappy... probably the worst drawn board yet which makes you wonder why i chose it for a screenshot. WELL I JUST DID OK?

Posted Image

One of the casino's many many games! Money is hugely important in ABG, there are loads of items that you can buy and the casino is the best place to try your luck!

Posted Image

Another Casino game, in fact i love this minigame so much i can sit and play it for an hour straight!

Posted Image

My take on the mario-bonuslevel-ladders and holes minigame (as seen in Adlo)!

Posted Image

And sometimes...

uh...

And as a Bonus! Here are some new screenshots from my sideproject Tearaway!

Posted Image

Level 1-3, the lava isn't nearly as deadly as that crazy dude at the bottom of it.

Posted Image

The Zone 1 Boss(es). Borf and Naff!

Posted Image

Level 2-1, Snow place! the enemies are the same :D

Posted Image

And Again!

Posted Image

Probably the biggest leap in any sidescroller ever.

Posted Image

I didn't do so well : (




Enjoy! : )

Edit: Actually scratch that I just took a look at your journal! If you want to help with the GFX gametesting then you're totally welcome.

Progress progress progress!

Currently I'm steadily steaming ahead at one board a day, be it a movie, a game board, a mini game or something else!

This game is everything I've ever wanted to make in a mzx game and you'll see elements of all my other projects/releases, nogozone, johnny, Tearaway, zombeez... not so much 20Hbg admittedly.

But Just to let you all know that I'm getting great progress here!

Edit: And here is another tasty image for you all! : )

Seems fantastic, the graphics are still great aside from their simplicity. Also, in the sidescrolling parts, do you slide on slopes?

You will see many things, wonderful to tell. You will see a cow on the roof of a cotton house, also some really hilarious shit.

I want this game.

Well I can see why you'd want someone to do the graphics for you. Still though I like the looks of Tearaway. Reminds me of Spelunker (the game where you die every half minute from a ghost because you don't have the energy to kill it). :p

Progress is now steaming ahead!

I would estimate that this game currently has about... 1 and a half hours of gametime in it, as it stands, but of course, you will never be able to see everything in one go! that's the beauty of it! You'll probably have to play through it at least 3 times to see most of the content!

New Progress! :

Song count : 42
SFX Count : 75+
Pal / Chr Count : 30ish
Board count : Many!

Here are some new screenshots and musics!

Posted Image

Begie with his friend the robot. The robot is voiced by Koji. The robot has an inferiority complex

Posted Image

You never saw this screenshot, this organisation does not exist.

Posted Image

Begie takes a day out of his busy schedule to become a computer virus

Posted Image

The disco slash booze hub. Supertown has a lot of these. and they all look like this

Posted Image

I'm sure you can guess what's happening here! And what you have to do, but in THIS version Begie is drunk off his face!

This makes it more exciting!
