Looks like Q*bert, but the characters are a bit weird (not that the characters in Q*bert aren't weird).

Done.

Looks like a Touho game, but I'm not familiar with the series to name which game it is.

I haven't read thoroughly what you're supposed to do, but try this first:

Code: ags

int RNG; 

function game_start()
{
  RNG = Random(3)+1; //Random(3) gives a value from 0-3 so add 1 to get a value from 1-4
}

A few points of note:

• A global variable must be defined OUTSIDE of any function; otherwise the variable is only created inside the function and destroyed once the function is finished.
  
• You can only assign a static value to a variable at definition, when it's defined outside of any function, so you cannot assign RNG a value from Random() immediately, but have to do so inside the function game_start() like your original code.
• The Random() function takes only one parameter (you may check the manual).
  
• If the variable is only used in the global script that's okay, but if you need to use it also in another script you have to export the variable and import it to other scripts (see this).

This topic now lives in the Advanced Tech forum and is stickied.

Though now it has the up-to-date answer as well...

I know, but I'd rather people start a new topic next time instead of having through the whole thing.
I've thought of splitting the thread, but too lazy didn't want to edit the thing to make it make sense as a new thread.

Since the info. in this thread is outdated (unless you're using a very old version of AGS for some reasons), I think it is fair to lock it, so that spammers couldn't bump it to include spam links, and legit users who found it in a search would realise it's outdated.

I think that screenshot gave out the answer immediately, even though I've never watched the film.
That has to be the most iconic scene of the whole film, not an obscure one, right?

Something about sheep?

It's not TheFrighter's fault though, as it was first resurrected by a spambot, but the spam post was later deleted so this looks odd now.

Les Manley in Search for the King?

Highlander?

Remember, this is a really well-known movie,,,

Okay then, I'll try the old strategy in this thread.

Robocop

If not, then:

Blade Runner

Hmmm. I just added an avatar and it worked for me.
Maybe the forum just doesn't like your urls and bullies you.

On a side note, I finally add an avatar! After more than two decades!
The irony is that this avatar was indeed created for use here, back when just hotlinking a 20kb forum avatar from free image hosting could eat up all the monthly bandwidth, so I never put it up here.

A cow flying a plane is a very dangerous activity, Moooo.stly forbidden to be depicted in public forums to avoid casualties...




Seriously though, have you tried changing the file name of the image and see whether it works?

Yeah. March here too.

Is it Power Drift?

Yes!
Finally someone recognises it.
It's a (kart) racing game, and being able to control a F-14 on the street is no joke and not a hack:

(Hmmm. Seems that embedding YouTube video at specific time doesn't work for me. Just start at around 5:40.)
As long as your performance is good enough after selecting certain courses your kart will transform into this plane in the extra stage (and will transform into the bike from Hang On if you choose the other courses).

Your turn, Abstauber.

Big hint: You have the genre right.
But it's not Outrun and it's not a hack.
This is what will really happen in the game.

No. Not G-Loc or Sky Target. (G-Loc is sometimes considered to belong to the same (meta)series as After Burner, so it's definitely not it.)

More hints.
This is indeed another game developed by the same people who made After Burner in Sega (the AM2 division), so it is official.
And it's NOT a shooter game (so it's not Space Harrier, which was originally proposed as a fighter jet shooter and some of the console versions let you play as a (non F-14) jet).
And no, it's not a rhythm game either, so it's not one of those Hatsune Miku games (with the arcade version also developed by AM2 and has scenes ripped directly from ABC in one of the songs).

I'm reluctant to post another screenshot atm, as it would be dead giveaway (as long as you know this game, since it's a bit obscure among those 3-D coin-ops developed by AM2).

Will post another screenshot if still no one gets this in a while.

Just a random guess:
Dark Skies?
