July 6, 201213 yr comment_5590 This project seems to be fantastic! Only a few days left to get this cool game funded: It's great that we have Double Fine, Space Venture, Fedora and so on so let's help these guys to do it as well! Report
July 6, 201213 yr comment_5595 This project seems to be fantastic! Only a few days left to get this cool game funded: http://www.kickstart...-adventure-game It's great that we have Double Fine, Space Venture, Fedora and so on so let's help these guys to do it as well! Dude, there's a thread here just for promoting other crowd-sourced game projects. Let's do it that way, shall we? Report
July 6, 201213 yr comment_5596 In their defense, they're probably doing what many of us did to promote SpaceVenture and find the right section of the forum (without always looking for a thread with the same theme) to promote a project. (Since they only have 2 posts here, that'd be my guess). When I went on a SpaceVenture promoting spree, I was all over MANY forums, looking for their general / off topic chatter section, and then posting about Spaceventure without looking to see if there was a "Post all your Kickstarter" topic already.

Actually, they posted it in the wrong forum. I moved it here. Report

July 10, 201213 yr comment_5651 The newfound maturity of the SQ community is put to the test! I'll say we did quite well. ;) Report
July 11, 201213 yr comment_5666 Damn guys! Perhaps a picture of Roger having been twisted into a pretzel by the predator of SQ2 would have been more funny? I mean, it's not that far-fetched/unheard-of for people to be tracked down and shot by a stranger due to online activity/interactions. Do we really need to scare the guy half-to-death :D Report
July 11, 201213 yr comment_5677 Damn guys! Perhaps a picture of Roger having been twisted into a pretzel by the predator of SQ2 would have been more funny? Oh, Johnathon, Johnathon ... the hunter in SQ2 turns Roger into a skewer. The Arnoid in SQ3 turns him into a pretzel. Don't make me get the spanking rod. Report
July 11, 201213 yr comment_5680 Yeah, that's what I meant. :blush: I'll be honest, the Space Quest series ranks up there with my favorite films of all time, like Jurassic Park, Star Wars (the original trilogy), and Independence Day. As such, they all came to this point (quite a few years ago), when playing them (or watching the movies aforementioned) would only feel like propelling myself with my legs as I walk. So second nature and familiar, that the original emotional high had been drained out of it. Therefore, I tried not watching Jurassic Park for about 10 years (I'm not kidding), and every time I come back to it, it's still just not the same. This is the price I pay for overindulgence in my youth; for having watched the piss out of it, like 5 times a day, from age 9 until 12. As for Space Quest, I'm afraid I haven't forgotten all the puzzles yet, so I'm trying to hold out longer before I start playing them through again. I fear it may not have been long enough as of yet. :D Report
July 11, 201213 yr comment_5681 I haven't played them in years. Still I remember every puzzle. I played SQ1 and SQ2 the other day. I can beat them in 15 minutes. Report
July 11, 201213 yr comment_5687 I can beat them in 15 minutes. See? I think it's obvious that Troels just sucks at SQ. Report
July 11, 201213 yr comment_5689 See? I think it's obvious that Troels just sucks at SQ. Back in mid-'90s, the average SQ1 speedrun took over 46 hours -- and we liked it! ;) Jess Report
July 12, 201213 yr comment_5690 Hah! Troels, I just happened to watch your 3rd conundrum video, and you even cite it: "****ing human pretzel, man!" I suppose I really should have known. Dug myself a nice holograve, haven't I? :) Report
