Sounds interesting Victor Pflug, looking forward to it.

 

[Darth Roxor]

Those backgrounds look gorgeous.

 

[MapMan]

Looks really good.

 

[lightbane]

Looks good, will it feature tasteful tentacle-rape some sort of unique gimmick/s?i

 

[hoverdog]

Both the setting and the artwork look great. please do carry on.

No gimmicks, just solid adventure gaming with a strong emphasis on fundamentals like story, music, graphics and puzzles etc. I'd also like to think the setting, characters and atmosphere are somewhat more unique and elaborate than the usual point and click fare.

 

[Achilles]

Both the setting and the artwork look great. please do carry on.

 

[La Concha de tu Madre­]

Me inglish not good, but want to give you many props. The back of the ground is are fantastical. Robots is cool when sad and when heros of the game.

 

[asper]

Good artstyle!

 

[RatFink]

beautiful!

it does sound interesting! and i like that tidbit about the flying engine he built into his robot

 

[Jaesun]

In case you had not already Victor , maybe post some buzz on your project at: http://www.adventuregamers.com/

 

[Shagnak]

I could be wrong, but maybe if your files were .htm or .html, rather than .htt, they might actually render in a browser.

 

[Victor Pflug]

Thanks Jaesun and Shagnak, I have and I will do respectively! (Fucking webites, paint I can but site design I cannot)

 

[clockradiospeakers]

Looks damned good. Any idea on the length of the game at this point?

It's a relatively medium length game, somewhere between 30 - 60 screens to explore. I guess didn't mention this as we're considering having multiple endings and adding a bunch of extra puzzles, so in a way it's still up in the air.

Looks great, always up for a good point 'n' click adventure and can't wait to play it. Keep us updated.

before 2011

3 months to go and havent decided on endings? I'd hate to see the awesome artwork be wasted on a story with a rushed ending. Or is the writing pretty solid with just some flavour to add if you go the multiple ended route?

 

[Zed]

Looks fucking fantastic.

In the top-right part of the interface (load/save etc) I'd personally go with just icons (with eventual tooltip text explaining what each button does) because it looks a little cluttered now.

The writing is all solid, and an ending is decided, it's just that we may add extra stuff.

@Zed When you hit the options button a UI appears with clearer buttons for save, load, quit etc. The buttons pictured are just for convenience(Although I guess hotkeys would be better), plus they highlight when you hover with the cursor- making them easier to read.

 

[Jaesun]

Is this game going to be free, or are you planning on charging for it?

 

[soggie]

I don't mind paying for this. Stop teasing and release it already!

 

[Jaesun]

I wouldn't mind paying for it as well (if that is what they intend to do). But don't rush it.

Great, keep us posted.

jaesun, soggie

released sometime before 2011 as freeware

The artwork is really impressive. However, I think the black circle on one of the pictures (a shadow?) is a little too stark. Maybe make it somewhat transparent, in case that's a shadow.

Care to share some details on your painting process, the tools you use, the software? It reminds me a lot of those Discworld covers, I can't remember the name of the artist...

It'd be great if you could turn this into a developer diary, maybe even include some notes (in written or spoken form) like they did with the Blackwell games.

Also, what engine are you using? AGS?
