From the recent $107 Adventure Game Challenge jam there is Tony's Spaghetti, which is a fun short game about going undercover in a restaurant.

The same creator also made Magenta in Space Chapter One for the Adventure Jam 2023.

Another AGS game from Adventure Jam 2023 is  Office of the Returned, currently being updated and polished by Durinde.

Done! Falling Skywards now has a permanent home here. :)
For those who do not know, Falling Skywards was included in the Bake Sale some years ago. It's a great game with a moving story, good and quite challenging puzzles, wonderful animation and cool sound design.

I played this. Nice, historical graphics, and a very short game that would work nice as an intro to a history lesson about the real Annie, I suppose. Online play only. Thanks for the link!


On the site for that one, I found a link to Painted Hills, which is a fun short investigation game set in a Canadian native American village. Online play only, but very nice-looking and also using the relationships in the small village to make tasks/puzzles flow well in the investigation.

EDIT: Painted Hills has been added to the database!

This is a funny little game where the turnip leads the other vegetables to escape the goat eating them. Funny jokes, very easy.

I think this game isn't finished. I could move around, but I couldn't find anything else to do.

This one is highly recommended! Digital Mosaic has made a shortie for a game jam, but there's great voice acting, graphics, music and writing. True, there is little room for puzzles, but there is a memory puzzle, so I'll check that box too.

Quote from: eri0o on Wed 08/02/2023 19:55:50I don't remember seeing this game in the DB, it was made for ludumdare: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/52/homunculus
Another good short game from the same people. This one is a sort of Frankenstein story.

This one took a while until I realized that there was a game element to it.

Quite a different experience from a standard adventure.

Sorry but I had some problem checking the site if they are already in the forum

For this one no problem in searching

This is a 2010 AGS prototype of a later flash game

For Spia: yes, judging by the itch page, the project is on hold (by 2016  :=  )

The MAGS contest back in September 2008 had the theme "Broken Game". Reading the thread is a tad confusing. Radiant first entered Awesmoe Quest, which is on the archive. This I believe to be just a joke, as ProgZmax replied about the game crashing instantly (which the version on the archive also does), and the game is the "game within a game" found in META (which is in the database). However, when Radiant entered his real entry, KATA, this was set up to be that he competed against himself. KATA is not in the database, but can be found on Radiant's home page. It's a parody of Windows, of sorts, and basically has the player battling error messages trying to install a game. I can see this being fun for some, and mildly annoying for others.

Chmelnica is a short adventure made by Czech one-person team Marion Software (not to be confused with our own Marion). There are translations to German and English. (The author had a game in the db called Bill DeBill, but it's gone now.) The moon logic level borders on asteroid, but I found the setting interesting, as I didn't know anything about the type of farm workers shown in the game.

(Hi heltenjon: after pressing post i got the error that another post was published just in the meantime, and i got asked if i wanted to change my text....should we rub our noses?
I'll check immediately your games, chmelnica sounds familiar)

EDIT:
found this in the forum
The Spirit of Christmas
and searching the web this one
Yahoo Groups Metadata Collection

This was a fun short investigation game.

QuoteSenpai Getaway
Short Slovak game that I needed Google Translate to finish. Made for a small anime-inspired jam, this is a mix of graphic assets that doesn't fit together. I found it kind of charming, anyway.
Quotedrawn to the flame
This one is a brilliant short horror piece featuring a scary elevator ride. No real puzzles, but I thought it was genuinely unsettling. Good stuff.

The same author also has a game in the database (Where No Fear Was), but on his itch page, there are also two other small games:
Grace Russell: Episode 1 tech demo, which is a taste of an investigation game. Just a demo, like the title says.
A Fool for Love (or: Finding the Right Words Beta Version), which is an unfinished game where the player control a cupid who is guiding a hopeless guy in his quest for love. Quite funny, and a great idea for a game.

It's a shame the flash game doesn't exist anymore. Very cool concept where the player has to time travel to preserve the history of Utrecht. Learning history this way is very appealing.

When the game is on flash i also check

but haven't found TijdTripper
(now i'm downloading the Ultimate version, but needs a lot of time....a lot....)

From ITCH comes

that could be categorized as joke since it lasts one click only

The September Mags 2003 featured a game called Dragonscale, which is on the archive, but not in the database. This is a short game set in a future which looks pretty much like our times, and perhaps involving a dragon. The theme was "Mythological Beast".

It looks like one of Daniele Spadoni's Back to the Future fangames is not in the database, but it is on the archive. This is the one similar to the movie.

And with Adultsqualman returning, why not post the link to his production from his younger days. It's on the archive again: A Cup of Coffee is worth 1000 Bathroom Trips This may require an older pc or some tinkering before it will run. And it's made by a kid, so be warned.  ;)

Joke indeed. Looks nice, but a bit disappointing.

This is the same game, but with a bit more features in the expanded edition. Absolutely delightful and funny, albeit a sort of celebration of pointlessness at the same time. I was having a good time, achieving very little.  :-D

This is a really nice, "slow" game about a retired cop. Good-looking pixel art, too.
QuoteZombie Train Beyond Earth: Episode 2

I checked out episode 1 (made with GameMaker Studio), and it was really cool. Making a flipped animation? Nope, just let the guy moonwalk (Space, you know). (laugh)  Episode 2 is well made, but I didn't like the idea that much. And I can't reveal it without spoiling it.
