I know ID has a great policy and I've always had a lot of respect for them for that. This seems at least on that level, maybe even more.

Re: Mage's Initiation Kickstarter?
Thanks! Looking forward to the wallpaper. And I'd love for your next game to be at a full 1920x1080 resolution, especially if this one is funded well though it doesn't look like AGS supports that yet.

Re: Mage's Initiation Kickstarter?
Holy heck. Incredible start and a very modest funding request. I've just backed it at the initiate level (and voted to get it Greenlit).
And two quick questions: what is the native resolution of the game? And any way to get a wallpaper or two of the background art only (no characters or UI)?

Re: Mage's Initiation?
AGC2 mentioned that he doesn't always get the reports in the format he wants; that's why I mentioned that. But it's great if you like your program otherwise.

Re: Mage's Initiation?
Thanks. I can see how the urgency of releasing sooner rather than later and the frustration with beta testers in the past would make you want to avoid releasing a beta to backers. I'm still tempted to write you a beta bug form program that only allows testers to submit bugs when the required fields ...

Re: Mage's Initiation?
as far as I can see, a large beta team would probably delay the game's release even longer than a small, closed beta group. And wouldn't backers prefer the finished game in their hands sooner, rather than getting to play a slightly early buggy version that will drag out the final release longer tha...

Re: Mage's Initiation?
Beta testing is hard work. However, I have the feeling most people don't see "beta access" as "you have to do the work of beta testing the game for us" and more as "you get the game early (and will probably then be upset that it's still buggy)". True. They want access,...

Re: Mage's Initiation?
I've gotta think you must be wrong on the beta minimum wage thing. Obviously consult with a lawyer or other Kickstarter project leaders or something but there are so many projects out there that offer beta access. I'm part of the Double Fine Adventure Kickstarter beta and I know no one promised me p...

You guys have have spent an incredible amount of time to entertain the community and I know a lot of people are eager to give back in some way.

Re: So what's this about a 'Kings Quest Reboot' they're maki
Doesn't seem like there's anything going on with it. May 16, 2012 article King’s Quest kind of came in with all of the other licenses at the same time. We’d already had the Universal stuff for a while and we were working on that, and then we signed King’s Quest around the same time as Walking Dead a...

Re: Hero 6 Demo Playthrough Videos
We're all really just theorizing but it does depend on how organized and clear the original coders were. If you can learn and use their method, continuing their work makes sense. Otherwise it's best to work from scratch and simply use their art/music/sounds (which will still save a TON of time).

Re: More news from the Cole's on possible QFG or similar Kic
I'd vote for another hero in the QfG world, with a cameo or two. Edit: Gets my mind going. Would be cool if the new hero would meet the old one. And I mean old one. Maybe meet an old guy at some point, on the road or in a tavern or something, and only later find out that he was the hero from the oth...

While I'm not too excited about most of those options I'm glad they have these choices to play with. Thanks for sharing!

Re: Thank you.
It's hard to overstate how difficult it is to complete even just one project, though AGDI has several under their belts. Just the Quest for Glory II remake took years of dedication and thousands of hours of work.

Re: Has anyone contacted Lori and Corey lately...?
I'd love to see this too, of course. I wonder if they'll spend money on licensing QfG or if they'll do something closely related, the way the Space Quest guys are trying to.

Curious: what would you take from Quest for Glory? The characters? The story? Areas? Would you still have puzzle solving part of it or more action instead?
