AGS is not designed to make such a game easily.   There is a TCP/IP plugin that can be used to implement network communications.  It is discussed in this thread (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=35018.0) where a download link is provided.   To the best of my knowledge no one has ever produced an online or multi-player game using AGS.   Frankly I think you're in over your head and ought to consider doing something a little less ambitious.   ;)

Do you mean a game that's playable on a website? You can't make that kind of game with AGS.

Didn't you read the thread title, people? He's trying to make an "online-free game", and that's very possible with AGS.  :=

I read the title and post and understood just fine.  I gave him the link to the TCP/IP plugin which will be needed for something like this.   I also offered my opinion that this is not a trivial task, evidenced by the fact that no one to date has completed such a game.   I concluded by suggesting that phycokill start with something a little easier which is nearly always good advice.    It was late when I made the post so I apologize if I didn't convey my advice in a friendly manner.
