Title: SOCKO! lead writer *Contest* ... [Winner!]
Post by: Ionias on Sun 07/03/2004 16:51:11
Heyah!

Yes, the subject says it all. I'm starting a Space Quest fangame. I want something small and fun to work on, as I develop my flash skills, before I go on to my next commercial game. Here are the details: http://wiw.org/~jess/forum/viewtopic.php?p=67796#67796 (http://wiw.org/~jess/forum/viewtopic.php?p=67796#67796)

Good luck!

Awesome!

If I have enough free-time before the deadline I'll definately send a submission!  SQ were always my favorites and their humor is just my thing!

Just FYI, you have the contest deadline as of last year ... thought you might like to fix that (on the other forums!)

I'd like to write.. But I don't think I have the time or attention span to write a whole script.. And, my knowledge of the series is what you could call minimal.. I've played SQ4 and 6 only..

But if you need a beta tester, Quality Assurance, or Gameplay Advisor (What I do for By The Sword) call me.. And if you need voices.. My voice has deepened greatly since the last time I auditioned for you :-p..

Whatever you need though, I wanna help!

I'm writing out a little summary thingy that details a short story summary, characters, locations and other things as I type this... how you may ask am I writing both at the same time... thats simple... I'm magic! :D

I'm also checking the Virtual Broomcloset and the SQ FAQ to make sure I don't screw up any continuity... but seeing as I've only read about SQ6, and have never played it, I only know a limited knowledge of that episode in the series... the rest though, I have played... many, many, many, many times... ;D

I just download the Sibylla demo. Looks cool, makes me wish I could draw non-cartoon style.

Os àšltimo Quão Queijo: No need to worry about tying the plot into the SQ6 game.

LGM: Thanks for the offer(s).

I'm looking forward to everyone's submissions. :)

Just a reminder, the contest ends in a few days, three to be exact. Time to get those submissions in.

I'd compete if I had time...if you're still looking for a side writer during the summer, though. I'm your man. Played all six several times, good for a couple of one liners. Good luck.

I'd like to be a creative consultant or something.
Don't really have time for much else right now.

Sounds promising, I would like to help but since you already have a musician I could beta test it for you... everything else takes so much time and I have my own games to finish aswell :P

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Like I told Mike, this is a little like a dream come true for me: Writing a story for an SQ game and working with some of the greatest people in the AGS community.

You like me, you really like me!

Check the date. Last post was March. This project could possibly be dead, as I haven't heard anything from Ionias since.

But I don't know anything.
