Title: Femo Duo's 'Combat of the Quests' (wip)
Post by: Joker on Thu 23/02/2006 19:09:23
Hi there!

It has been about two year since we've released 'Enclosure', so we thought it was about time for us to start working on a new game. Adventure Games were a nice experience after years of 'Beat'm-ups', but still that last genre 'kept calling'...


So we decided to combine these two good things into one:


We from Femo Duo Entertainment are proud to present our latest 'Work In Progress' called

"Combat of the Quests" (working title)


Let me give you a short summary: It's about kicking butt !!


A couple of screenies to get you going:

Even before 'Enclosure' we toyed with this idea, using the AGI engine... However, the AGI engine was too limited (control-wise mostly, but also scrolling screens, etc.), but still the idea kept lingering. Finally, finding a suitable engine, we decided it was time to let this idea go into development.

Check it out at our website (http://home.deds.nl/~femo).

Just click on CURRENT...

Have fun!

Haha, that looks funny.

However, do you plan to make another adventure game? "Enclosure" was so awesome!

The pic with Graham doing a flying kick does it for me. I want this.

I love it! I just can't wait to get to beat up those little Sierra dudes! (http://koti.mbnet.fi/paapeli/rsmiley/winktongue.gif)

Hmm, the trailer of Enclosure was cool as hell. Gonna have to check the game out someday.

Thanks for the encouragement so far!


Afflict: We're using Blitz Basic for this one.

Vel: I think we probably will; making adventure games never gets boring.

Ghormak: You'll get it! :)

Pablo: Glad you liked it! And please do.


I'll edit this thread from time to time to keep you all up to date!

And please, PLEASE put Guybrush into this game! And Indy. And the purple tentacle. And Hoagie. And now I'll shut up.

Those aren't Quest games sbslovenia.

Otherwise, awesome! I agree with Ghormak, that's probably the best picture on the internet.

Ohhh, I see now: Combat of the Quests. My incredible way of not noticing the incredibly large sign is incredibly called 'needglassesobia'. Or stupidity.

mmm no quest for glory? aka heros quest?

The opportunities are endless!

But if you only use one character please use the one the only OTIS!

BIG HUGE and a nice little outfit

Great to see you're all anxious to play this game! Very motivating!

To get things straight; The characters will be from early Sierra games that were using the AGI engine (sorry to disappoint you, Afflict). However, if succesful, a sequel might be in order, of course :)

But Manhunter will be there. Jerrod Wilson from Goldrush, Gwydion, Manannan and many more.

Thanks for you comments; keep those suggestions coming! :D
