Yeah. It's been a while. So when I said it would be coming soon way back then just imagine how soon it must be now!

There, that seems teasing enough for now...

Perhaps I'll do regular bi-weekly hints or something.
Good thing you didn't try that one, haha! Man, I can't believe this thread was started in June 2009! I wouldn't have guessed so long ago.

I'm also really curious about this. I think the "X" is part of a Roman numeral. From what has been said, it sounds like the game uses characters or alludes to storylines from one or more known series and maybe puts them in a futuristic or alternate universe type of setting. Sort of like a King's Quest XIX: King Graham and Roger Wilco journey to rescue Rosella, who was recruited and kidnapped by a band of disgruntled latex babes. Or maybe it is a mature-themed King's Quest XXX: Leisure Suit Larry in Pursuit of Voluptuos Valenice (since "cougars" seem to be in right now). Edit: man, i need to do a better job of reading through all the previous posts. I didn't see that someone already said the latex babe thing with KQ.

OK: Taking a cue from Valve's highly successful "Orange Box", the mysterious, as-yet-unnamed game company will amaze and astound everyone with the upcoming release of...

KHAKI BOX !!!

(or KELLY GREEN BOX...)

It's times like these that once again confirm that the internet has EVERYTHING.

Aw, you discoverd it on that second link. It is Kuklux: The Adventure! So controversial it's bound to be a hit!

It seems that time or dimension travel of some sort could be involved (from the looks of that "bank" animated gif), which leads me to think that maybe "time vortex" or just "vortex" could be in the title. Maybe that's where the "X" comes from. (Just an observation: the word "vortex" appears three times on their "about us" page, where they tell the tale of their beginnings. Just a coincidence? Or, could travel via vortices be a recurring theme with these infamous characters? http://www.infamous-adventures.com/index.php?page=about We report. You decide.)

By the way, is Blackthorne519 part of the team working on this game? I assumed that the animated gif he/she posted was a glimpse into this mystery project. Sorry, as a clueless relative newbie around here, I don't know who's who. 8o

As for the "K"... for some reason I'm stuck on the idea of combining series or having known characters from different series come together. That's why I keep coming back to "King" for the beginning of the title. Still, here's another thought: perhaps it's a semi-autobiographical tale... "Klytos and Blackthorne's Excellent Adventure through a Vortex". (a la this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrGWooNDPiE )

Yeah, this sounds on the right track to me. But MI also took great pains to suggest that the game is only "related" to a known "unfinished" storyline, and that the main focus of the game is NOT directly related to said storyline. So, I think that something like your theory is plausible, but that there is also going to be some kind of twist, maybe?

I for one really hope the title is "kerflummox". I may have just learned this word, but I plan to use it as much as possible.

No, I'm not working on the project MI's talking about - to clear that up.

But all these conjectures are a lot of fun. It's nice to see people talking about this stuff again. I was beginning to think no one was interested anymore!

I also happen to think that it's more than one word - the first word begins with K and the last one ends in X.

I hope they do a teaser video for this project and also post more in the near future about Project X. Their SQII trailer was one of the most creative ones I'd seen from a development team using the AGS engine.

This game has nothing to do with Infamous Adventures.

Oh! I had assumed it was going to be an Infamous Adventures game, since I saw your screen name on their "about us" page. I'm so confused... I don't know who is who anymore. :-P

Or do you just mean that the plot won't be related to Infamous Adventures? As in, no plots based around "Two Guys from Adromeda"-style characters?

I do work for (or rather, have fun with) the Infamous Adventurers, but this game isn't being made by them, no.

Is the previously posted animated "bank" gif from this project?
