Quest for Infamy / Re: The Concept Art Thread
« on: August 29, 2013, 02:54:38 PM »
You've been working on this a long time. What's the OLDEST concept art you have? :) That which makes you cringe would be most welcome!

Heh - well, I did start this thread a while back - it has some of the very first images!  I'm sure I can dig up some original 2004 stuff if I search around on some old computers/hard-drives!  I did find the original design document from 2004 recently!

So, if anyone would like to take a preview gander at this, send me a PM.  I'd like to get some input from people, and I trust our fans the most.

Fran Bow

A horror adventure game made by 2 people(Natalia & Isak). The demo is quite impressive.


Yeah, Fran Bow looks really interesting.  Almost like a bit of Edward Goery come to life - I have to be honest, it's really not my taste, but the creators have made something special here.  It made it's goal, and it continues to go on, so that's super awesome!

Pac Man.

Why is he eating everyone's pellets?  Why are ghosts chasing him?  Were they other Pac-Men he killed in life?  And then with his magical powers, he'll eat them?  And he's not satisfied until he's eaten every last thing in the maze?

Bastard.

Yeah, it'd be a combination Art Book/Hint book - It'd be arranged so that the art on the pages would be relevant to the content of the hints/strategies on the pages - plus, the decoder window would be a custom job that would have more original artwork by our artists on it as well.  Plus there would be historical information about the world the game takes place in (Tahrsein) and bits of information about other lands, etc - the history of development on the game.  Most likely naked pictures of James Mulvale, our composer.  (I kid, I kid!)  But, yeah - chock full of hints to get you through the game, plus a few redherrings, silly questions and outright lies.

So... what about an Art Book/Strategy Guide/Hint Book with decoder window for Quest For Infamy? Yay or nay?


Well, the reason I ask about interest is because to make something like this, we'd probably have to use crowd funding (Kickstarter, et. al) to raise the initial kind of money we'd need to be able to make these - not only to pay the price for the production of the book, the creation of the custom decoder window, eBook versions, etc - and to pay someone to construct the layout of the book; to arrange the text written, the artwork, and create the decoder text to be seen - etc.

It wouldn't be a really high goal project, at least to do an initial run of say - 100-150 copies - probably with a basic goal of $3,000 to $5,000 for an initial production of that - but we'd have stretch goal ideas for a larger print run, hardcover editions, etc. I know we'd love to produce something like this, but I wanted to not only gauge the response and want for an item like this from all you people - but if we do decide to run a crowdfunding campaign, to get your input on what you'd like to see from the campaign.

We don't wish to tread into something like this lightly, and you fans have been our only support in this - we don't have any corporate sponsors or the like, so keeping you involved in the process is very important to us.

So - it's really important to me (Bt) and the rest of the team to get your thoughts. Would you pledge so something like this? Any ideas for the campaign? I know the book is a physical reward - but we'd be doing a eBook version of it too for Nook/Kindle/Pdf - but those would require one physical element; red decoder glasses you can wear as you stare at the screen, etc. Anyway - Thoughts?

So, I keep seeing more buzz about the Occulus Rift VR!  People are going nuts over this.

I really don't understand the appeal - this sounds like stuff I was interested in 20 years ago when I saw the Lawnmower man.  I don't understand how this is "revolutionary".

Hey guys, here's some more stuff for you to take a gander it - these are character study ideas by Jenny Pattison for the Council of Tyr, and the Guard of Tyr - Tyr's arrows!  Tyr's arrows is an all female enforcement team, led by Voleris, who Roehm comes to know during the game.

Based on George Lucas' Original Script from 1974!

That's right - Han Solo is a 6 foot tall Lizard, Darth Vader is an evil general, Annakin Starkiller..... all the goodies of old!  Check out this trailer!!!

Oh, I can't wait.  This is some good old-fashioned what if fun.  That script is a DOOZY!  It'll be cool to see it come to life this way.

Quest for Infamy / Re: Quest For Gory 4.5 inspired this?
« on: August 02, 2013, 05:50:02 PM »
The guy who's remaking it reads these forums.  I've spoken with him - he's got a lot on his plate, and probably won't get around to wrapping it up for a while.  Don't hold your breath, in other words.


Also , the original racist joke was, "I'm not going to tell you, because I don't know."

Also, I see no problem with hooker sex scenes or sex in general.  Sex is natural; everyone has it, it's how we make both smiles and babies.  Racist jokes, however, have their roots in deep seeded fear, loathing and hate and generally, they're disgusting.  I don't want to get into another discussion about the semantics of racist jokes, however, because it's 2013 and that conversation practically founded the internet 20 years ago, and that's one retro thing I don't wanna dive into again.  They're lame, and even the original creator of the game said the humor was sophomoric and without tact when he first made it. 

So, to sum up, I would rather see people having sex than see racist jokes being told.  x1000.
