WHATS IMPORTANT:

dont know, im completly stressed out, i take one week holiday, work the last 6 days around the clock,
to finish this game, and this was not enough.
Not to mention about the social-life which was completly turned off to zero, and the problems which was resulting from
this circumstances, but nevertheless it was a great fun to make this game.
This is my first AGS-Game and I have learned a lot about the engine,
which is really great for making cool adventure games, and more.

ok so what we have:

TECHNICHAL:

The game is in 800x600 with 32bit screen resolution, which is the highest possible with the AGS-Editor.
I have decided to do so, cause want to see what i can get out with it.
Sorry for the huge filesize, but i guess its worth the download, and if you read this letter, its too late to change your opinion anyway ;-).
The Interface is self explanatory i guess.
All functions are accesable over the gui, with the mouse-cursor.
To start the game, simply unzip the file and doubleclick the Airbreak.exe file.
I have planned to make the game in english and german, if i had magnaged to accomplish this, you can setup the language and some other settings, if not it might be follow in a short duration, in the winsetup.exe file.
I suggest using 800x600 resolution and the flag: Anti-alias scaled sprites.
Dont know what fast cpu only are, but I use an old Amd 1800+ and can play it, without problems.


GAMEPLAY:

I dont have the focus to much on the puzzles, and so they are very easy - in my opinion, 
but this is an adventure-game and so a few are there.
The Theory Lesson is probably to heavy, i had planned to split it up in little pieces but run out of time.
So you can use it as a serious practice exercise for that matter, which is also no fault. 
Have not implemented all the ideas i had, but maybe i update the game after the deathline for the mags 2004, to interlace more on interactive music-teaching issues, as i had aim at the beginning.
