How to Create Your Own AGI Adventure Game
By Jonozon

 

For this tutorial you will need AGI Studio and PicEdit.

Step 1: Writing the Storyline

For this example we will create a simple game called Bill's Quest. First of all you need to write the storyline of your game.

Here is the storyline:

D > Welcome to Bills Quest
I > Look
D > You are standing in a meadow, there is a shack on it.
I > walk to shack, open door
D > suddenly you feel overcome by nausea and you fall to the floor in a heap. You drift in and out of consciousness and gradually awake to find yourself in a locked room
I > look
D > You are in a locked room with a table, and a flickering candle
I > Look at table
D > There is a key on the table
I > Get key
D > You take the key that is laying on the table
I > unlock door
D > You unlock the door and walk out of the room
D > You Win
Scr > Shake

That is how I write a storyline. You may do it differently but this version works the best for me. Each of the letters in front of the line represent a different action

  • "I >" represents something that the player has to do.
  • "D >" represents a dialog or message.
  • "Scr >" represents an action on the screen.

 

Step 2: Creating a New Game from the Template

Next create a new game from the template supplied with AGI Studio.

Once you have started up AGI Studio select New > From Template on the file menu. AGI Studio will ask you which directory to make the game in. Click on Create dir... then type in Bills_Quest Then Click the OK Button.
