Yeah, I remember reading that the lead on that KQIV project, Karen, had suddenly passed away. That's very sad, she was very young.
And thanks for the compliments on our KQ3. When we made it, we didn't know AGDI was going to do a KQ3 - we just thought it would be fun to do. Ours came out in 2006, too - I think their KQIII+ came out in 2010 or 2011. I enjoyed our years of doing remakes, and I especially enjoyed the community that popped up around them. I mean, I met Broomie & Klytos there and everything we've done has spun out of that community.
Over the years, between AGDI and the AGS-Forums, I've met a lot of awesome people that helped us create these games. I really do miss that sense of community, but I also realize that when this all started, many of us were students and young adults with little responsibility. Now, we live much different lives - and some people have just moved on totally and aren't around any more. Such is life! It just makes me grateful for those who have stuck around, and those who I've developed lasting friendships with.
