Sadly have to drop out of it this time after all. I overestimated how much I could get done and learn in a short amount of time and other life circumstances make me unable to continue working on it for a while. That said, I will definitely stick with AGS and maybe even complete this game post-competition. I'll probably miss next month's MAGS but plan to enter the one after that! I think AGS is pretty neat from my short experience with it now and will continue using it for sure. See you soon with maybe a completed version of the game I was trying to make this time or something new~!

I did find time to play @4KbShort 's entry and quite enjoyed it!
Great atmosphere and graphics and the story was touching in its simplicity! Lovely little experience and great job finishing too!

How are we getting on, gang?

Yep, still working on it! Had a little bit of a life situation but I've been chipping away at things since. Been diligently learning the engine and finished some animations which I've never really done so it's been a learning progress too. I don't have enough experience to say if I will finish it all when deadline comes but I don't feel it's impossible as of right now! If I miss this one then I still feel like I learned enough and will just try again for the next MAGS since I'm having fun!

Here's some characters cycling through some animations to show some progress:

The script and progression is completely done, just working on assembling it all and adding some more art and maybe I'll have time to make some music too~

Hey there, I'm also new and also heard about MAGS and AGS from a video. Thought I'd give MAGS a try to learn the engine though I'm starting to think I might've bitten off more than I can chew without much gamedev experience. Nonetheless, I got the characters walking and animating and interacting with things, so I'm hoping I can push through to the end and maybe get a short game done by the deadline! Here's a little work in progress screenshot:
