Hello all,
I'm rubywaves, long-time lurker, first-time poster. I didn't play a lot of adventure games when I was younger (I was more interested in writing), but I started catching up about two years ago with some of the games found on abandonware sites (and some legal copies of Sam & Max and DoTT). Through one of these sites, I came across 5DAS, and thus I was introduced to AGS.*
What an adventure it's been! Solving mysteries, randomly clicking items together, trying not to get killed, fighting for justice and the RONian way... and like most AGS players, I've been inspired to make my own game. Maybe once I make sense of the coding, I'll get to it.
I'm currently located in northeastern North Carolina AKA Land o' Swamps. I'm of the female persuasion, 25 years old, and a writer (nothing published yet). I'm also a college student--last year, actually. I just have to figure out what I can do with a degree in English with a concentration in Creative Writing and a minor in Graphic Design.
I'm looking forward to being a part of the AGS community and all the geekiness surrounding it.
*Seems that a lot of people are introduced to AGS via Yahtzee games. He's, like, some sort of portal or something. (That didn't sound right.)
