interesting.

see for game conception informations too: http://www.francksauer.com/index.php...games/10-agony

PS:
warning: there are some french personnal documents of his wife in the archive...

it would be necessary to warn Yves Grolet so that the documents are removed from the archive (i am not facebook account ).

With the source, does this mean someone with enough knowledge can technically use the engine to make other games? Possibly Agony 2???

Hm, thanks for the warning. I'll extract the Agony source (not that I ever do anything with such code, but I like to collect it) and then remove the archive.

Maybe if you have genius art designers and musicians among your friends The magic of Agony is not really in the source code, although there is clearly technical wizardry in there - maybe even code tailored to each level to crank out maximum performance? That would make adopting the code for a new game quite difficult.

It is not code which created those amazing looking waves, the code just loops an animation.

Unfortunately, no Unreal sources in the archive. Does this mean the Unreal sources are now officially lost?
