If anyone asks me to rate something I use: buy, borrow, avoid.

No problem mate, good luck with the project.

hVan is just the name of a hotspot in my game.

Code: ags
int count;
function hVan_Look()
{
  int saywhat;
  count++;
  
  if (count <= 5) {saywhat = count;}
  else {saywhat = (1 + Random(4));}//1+4 = 5
  
  switch (saywhat)
  {
    case 1:
      player.Say("one potato");
    break;
    case 2:
      player.Say("two potato");
    break;
    case 3:
      player.Say("three potato");
    break;
    case 4:
      player.Say("four potato");
    break;
    case 5:
      player.Say("five potato");
    break;
  }
}

How about Windows 10 reverting settings every time it updates! Some games are impossible to play if the laptop's trackpad is disabled when a keyboard key is pressed. You can't do the old WASD and mouse! I keep having to switch it off! WHY?!

Every time I use a self service checkout, something goes wrong and a member of staff has to fix it.

How about slow loading GUIs on anything like phones, consoles, computers, it's just a few pictures and some text! It's as if we're constantly kept in a state of crapiness!

I've been working on a little project where AGSers combine all their unwanted and old artwork. Could be useful for MAGS if allowed.
Just look at Ocean Spirit Dennis, in his world they allow people to use freely available art in their game projects, look how happy he is. Click him, go on!

Permanently extend the deadline by another month/2 weeks? More time for people who have little, emphasis that the game doesn't have to be longer/better because of the extra time.

I'm pretty sure RotN assets are allowed to be used every month, perhaps we could create some more all in one graphics packs with different art styles that people can use. EDIT: (VampireWombat got there before me!) :-D

There's a functional door bell on my front door, when someone presses it I can hear it throughout the house. Half the people who come to my door give it a gentle knock so I have no idea they're there until they've been stood there ages.

More like annoying than making me angry, Google thinks I'm a Muslim. There's always an advert for Muslim brides or some religious event. A few years ago Adeel was talking about Ramadan, so I googled it out of curiosity. Did it a few times when he mentioned stuff. I do have Ad-blocker, but only on my laptop.

Have you tried GraphicsGale? In the beginning I used photoshop for pixel art, but found GG much better suited. You can also use the directional keys to move the cursor a pixel at time.

Welcome Hazel! It is a lovely community (apart from the odd dating site bot it seems), I look forward to see what projects you come up with!

How about when you see a game with beautiful pixel art, there's always one guy in the comments that says something along the lines of: "Pfft looks like a NES game, why doesn't the lazy developer make the effort to make some real graphics!".

I've read somewhere that Google is planning to give sites a lower rank in their search results if they have pop-up ads.

@Selmiak: Put it in your signature! ;)

@CaptainD: At least you know the basics, you've also built a good reputation in the community. A lot of these sort of posts tend to be made by people who just registered, or have no proof of their abilities.

That bothers me too! I think if you're going to make an indie game you either need to be the artist or programmer yourself. If you're not one of those then you best have the funds.

I think any Pixar film is worth watching!

I'll take your word for it, but I'm still not watching Cars 2 (or Cars)

Just remembered, stay away from Planes! That's the only Pixar film I thought was naff.
