Quest for Infamy Will Be Released on June 26th 2014
« on: April 30, 2014, 10:27:20 AM »
It's my extreme privilege and honor to be able to announce to you the release date of Quest For Infamy.


It's been... wow, a journey.  But I think we've created a really amazing, classic style adventure and I just hope you like it.  To all the backers who made this happen - thank you, from the whole team.

The Digital Downloads will be available that day - in the coming months, we'll be confirming your emails, etc to make sure you'll get your download codes as backers - Physical Rewards will be following after the digital release of the game, and we'll keep you more informed about that the closer we get.... but we're just so excited to be able to share the game with you!

On behalf of all of us here at IQ - thanks, and we'll see you soon!

Congrats guys!! A couple more months hard work and you can start the process all over again?

What do the next two months look like for you BT? I am sure you must have  a lot of varied tasks I think it would be interesting for fans to get an insight into the kind of things you have to tick off.

If they look like the last two months then it will look like bugs and more bugs, and then finally less bugs  :P

Yeah the bugs were a given, I was interested in what the other 1000 things on the to do list would be.there are the logistics of getting the physical game posted, the hint book, press interview and I am sure heaps of other things tha are involved in launching a game which I have no clue about.

Hey Steve, Shawn and the rest of the bunch,

Instead of liking 23 different posts on Facebook, I'll take this opportunity to congratulate you all on this momentous occasion; it must feel intensely gratifying to finally see your original idea come to fruition!!! :)
Can't wait to play the game! Also very curious to see the growth this team has (undoubtedly) gone through in the past two years :)

Keep up the good work, and as always; cheers!

Here's a small portion of our to-do list, mate. Plus of course, bug squashing!

1 - Steam integration (setting up achievements, stats etc)
2 - Helping our official wiki partner set up the Quest for Infamy wiki
3 - Sending out early versions of the game to media
4 - Interviews (sometimes at stupid o'clock for me as you could relate to living in the 2nd best country on earth)
5 - Getting the final rewards printed then packaged and posted (if you want to know about the amount of effort required for packaging and posting ask Katie at POS about her experiences with Cognition.)
6 - Organising to get the game to our retail outlets (Humble Store, Good Old Games etc)
7 - Soundtrack - Organising the soundtrack to be released at the same time, graphic design of the covers etc

There's heaps more, the strategy guide itself is a very large undertaking, plus we're working on ports for iOS and Android as well (no promises there, we're working on them that's all I'll say. Adventure Game Studio isn't the most versatile engine for porting to other platforms.)

Thanks mate! A lot of changes from the old IA days. A bit more structured in our approach to game making, a lot bigger focus on deadlines as well! The graphics are, I must say, the single best post-Sierra adventure game graphics out there (in this style and resolution of course!) and that's the biggest change we've gone through, just the continual improvement!

Shawn hit it up on the lists - lots of getting in contact with people, setting up things so they're distributed properly... also, continuing to fix bugs!  Interviews, press.  Making sure I take time out to play with my dogs.... making sure I take care of my wife.  She's going to be out of commission for a couple of weeks following a minor surgery coming up, so I'll have to be the good hubby and make sure she's comfortable....

Hah.  Really, it's not that interesting.  A lot of sitting at a computer, going down a list, doing two or three things, having several phone calls, then posting about it on facebook to relieve a bit of stress, then going back and doing it again.

As Jackson Browne once sang, "... and when the morning light comes streaming in, you get up and do it again. Amen."

Wow, I didn't realize there was still so much left to be done...I've said it before, but you all truly amaze the crap outta me.  I have learned so much about what goes into a project of this size, and it's been a huge eye-opener.   Never again will I be that annoying idiot asking, "so when's the game coming out--soon, right??  Is it ready, is it done yet??"   ::)

And I agree with Mr. Shawn (Miss? ;D), that the graphics in this game are the best I've probably EVER seen since the Sierra/Lucasarts days, and it was the first thing that sold me on backing this game--there's just SO much incredible talent that you all have.  Ok, I'm blubbering now, I'm sure you get my point...


Edit:  just an FYI Bt, I don't know how often you check the AGS forum site but I was just looking at your release date announcement on the website and noticed the moderator (Darth) saying you needed to put a couple of in-game screenshots to your earlier post.  If you already saw & remedied that, then just ignore me.  I just didn't want him to lock your post.   :P

Thanks - I didn't notice they weren't there.  I had links to screenshots in there, but they must have been moved cause the URLs were invalid.  I corrected it, but hot-damn, that dude is touchy about having screenshots in there.  I know they made that rule to prevent "announcement" projects that were really just people saying they had an idea for a game, but for crissakes, we're a game with a publisher.  If you Google "Quest For Infamy" you'll see hundreds of links to screenshots.

Well done all, and godspeed with the remaining tasks at hand.

I have now officially warned my wife to leave me alone with the exception of beer and corn chips. She wanted to know if 6 months of "space" was long enough.... :-\

No, don't you give me none more of that Old Janx Spirit.
For my head will fly, my tongue will lie, my eyes will fry and I may die.
Won't you pour me one more of that sinful Old Janx Spirit"

There seems to be a bit of an issue with the Humblebundle distribution to backers. I believe Humblebundle is working on it, so hopefully they can get it sorted out soon.

I didn't think that would have worked but it did, Since humble now sends direct to steam.

So thank you. I hope everyone else gets there troubles fixed as well.
