At this rate people will be able to play the game like a choose your own adventure just from browsing the thread!

If Rosa walks into the bar, turn to page 4.

If she decides to go to the apartments instead, turn to page 2.

Right. I need some tip, I need to talk to the barman, which page to I go to?

Monique's character sprite may possibly be the single greatest sprite anyone has ever drawn ever.

Flattery will get you everywhere, Ben ^_^.

Well, those last screenshots look better than anything in any of your games, Dave. Let's hope the final product lives up to it!

I took some time and made a video trailer for the game.

WATCH IT HERE.

Game should be done by June.

Anticipation... rising...

As always looks great, but I think the extra resources for art has made it even better! Can't wait.

Looking good, I'm anticipating this even more than ECC.

Definitely come a long way since Bestowers

Joey's workin' overtime to punch-out this release.

I don't think Rosa's character portrait has as much personality as the old one and doesn't look much like her. I'd like to see it closer to the original, but that's just my opinion.

papirnehezek · Wed 13/05/2009 00:25:16

I have just tried the first two episodes, and I really like them. The Blackwell story is something very original. I'm really looking forward to the third episode, the demo was fantastic with the new graphics, and I also like the new voice-over much more than the original.
Keep up the good work!+!

I'd have to disagree with you joel, not that this is the CL or the place to say what we like/don't like. I think Ian's done an exceptional job with the portraits, and they have a less cartoony but more colorful look to them compared to Legacy. I think that when you see the rest of the portraits in game it will look more coherent, but tastes vary.

xenogia · Wed 13/05/2009 08:41:49

I'd have to agree with ProgZmax, and to be honest over the past 8 years that I've been checking out AGS this has to be the best looking game I have seen using the engine.

Takyon · Thu 14/05/2009 00:00:06

Can't wait for this one. I wish the stop watch was just invisible though so I didn't have to see it every time, am I the only one who thinks this?

Agreed.

I've produced a few cartoon shorts as a way to promote the new Blackwell game. It's been in the works for awhile, but the first episode is up!

Blackwell Cartoon #1: "On the Town"

Joey encourages Rosa to get out more, with interesting results.
