I keep getting my build refused due to "third party IP violations". I'm sure it's a false positive because everything in my game is my creation, but that's not my question. I want to ask: how can I resolve the issue if you can't tell me WHAT triggered your system?

Tom's Hardware Italia published yesterday a quiz on "how well you know Monkey Island". The questions, however, seem to be AI generated. Like, "What's the code to the jukebox in the SCUMM Bar"... 10 points if you can tell me, because I never saw a jukebox there.

...ok, now... is it the pac-man poster in The Halloween Party? The dark side of the moon in THP? The Lucasarts logo in THP? 2112 in Duty First? At least now I know, for fuck's sake!

During my PhD a paper of mine was so heavily scrutinized that once accepted, 18 months had passed and we already had a follow-up paper that we were trying to publish, leading to the first one being scrapped and we could only publish the second method. 15 years later THIS got accepted on NATURE.

Another failed attempt. I removed Nebraska Smith from the package, but it wasn't that. What should I remove next? Will it be No Rest for the Wicked, because it shares the title with a more famous game? Or Mutiny on the Clodia, because its logo contains a reference to an Italian shipping company?

As "Guga" is a pretty common nickname in Brazil, my e-mail has been used throughout the years by many people who somehow thought it was theirs. Yesterday someone gave my mail to recover their Apple password, then asked four times for an one-time code because they probably didn't receive anything.

Yet another attempt at making the Steam algorithm happy, yet another failure. I thought it was the Nebraska Smith logo that was too similar to the Indiana Jones one, but no. And Steam won't tell me what it is. I'll remove Nebraska Smith altogether to see if that is the issue.

I'm starting to hate Steam. They complain that the store page for my new game is "too similar to The Will of Arthur Flabbington", I explain why an early TWoAF appears in the compilation, they accept it. And then they raise THE SAME COMPLAINT for the build. Did you even read what I wrote?

I'm not usually affected by the death of someone I don't know personally. But the passing of GM Daniel Naroditsky really hit me hard. He was my favorite chess content creator and he seemed like a genuinely good person. Also, he was so young. I'm devastated. Rest in peace Danya ♟️

Here I am needing help from the AGS gurus once again. IsSpeechVoxAvailable() always returns false, and I have no idea why. I put a couple of files in the Speech folder, built, and I have a speech.vox file along with my executable.

...what? My guess is that Steam just saw I had a bunch of exe files and feared I'm redistributing other people's games. I hope they accept my explanation that goes "wtf are you talking about it's 100% my intellectual property"

This is what I had to fix so far. One game started with an inventory object that the player shouldn't have. One game just LOST THE PLAYER CHARACTER. Like, all files. One game lost all the music. One game's blocking scripts became non-blocking. On code I haven't touched in years.

On my quest to turn my jam games into a Steam compilation, another enemy appears: the Steam overlay! It just won't show up on Unity games if I launch them from the .exe, which is something I have to do because there's 10 and the main application is a launcher. But at least achievements work now!

On my quest to adding Steam achievements to my jam games I hit another wall. For some reason I lost part of the code for Nebraska Smith. There was no player prefab. I had to remake it and now music won't start. Also this reminded me why I left Adventure Creator after just one game.

Update: it seems like the AGS plugin is not being loaded at runtime, and that's why my achievements don't work. I made a new plugin that crashes the game on purpose and it worked only twice, then it doesn't get loaded anymore and I have no idea why. I'm on AGS 3.6.0

Help re: AGS and Steam On Godot/Unity you pass the app id at init time and you can set achievements from the engine run. They work even if you run the game from the exe, but achievos in my AGS games only work if launched via Steam. I need to be able to set them "from outside". Is there a way?

Since it turns out you can do it, I'm going to publish all my jam games into a compilation on Steam... for free! 10 games (and counting) for the price of zero! However I don't think I want to port my AGS games so it's going to be a Windows only bundle. Sorry, penguins and apples!

Has anyone released a game on Steam that is actually a compilation of many separate games? I'd love to put my jam games in there, but I can't merge them into a single exe, so I'd have like a launcher as main exe but then it's just 10 separate games. Does anyone know if it can be done?

Eulogy for Nonno is rapidly becoming one of my most downloaded games on itch. I doubt it will ever surpass No Rest for the Wicked because 1) that one won a jam with 300+ participants and 2) it shares the name with a much more popular game so it ended up in a lot of searches, but still it's nice.
