JUST KIDDING, BUDDY!!!

Thanks to Robin Ferreira and his brilliant hosting and site design, we are online to kick ass! Hybrid Studios, formerly known as SQ3VGA team, with yours truly as a leader and art director, is starting to work on a brilliant, hires, 3D Space Quest III Remake! Okay guys, bye and see you at the site!

What?

OOH, my bad. I forgot to give ya all the link, silly me!

Bookmark it guys, you'll have to visit it again and again and again!

Phew. Finally we can rest. For a month or two.
That was a joke, of course, because as we speak, our brilliant artist (me) is doing work to fill the SQ3 media page! (oh, and create the actual game too)

That's great! How far is the game from completion?

Yay, you had me fooled btw. Thats good news that there is progress on this project

Radiant · Tue 08/02/2005 08:09:51

Er, it may be a brilliant site and all, but my browser won't let me past the intro screen. Firefox, btw.

Haha.. this is great! I still have the rolling demo of the game! Everytime I noticed the folder (and rewatched it) I wondered what had happened

Since we haven't gathered a full working team (we're searching for a 3D animator), there is even no talk about completion. We are on sketching stage - but we are working hard.

The problem seems to be that you're putting critical parts of your html code (e.g. the menu bar) in flash. Given that flash isn't exactly a fully available standard everywhere, that might not be a very good idea. I managed to find the link page through URL guessing, and it has the same problem.

Anyway. What kind of game is this? I assume AGS. 320x200 or more? Remake or enhanced? Single player or networked?

Khaveen · Tue 08/02/2005 13:15:13

No, it's not AGS, and that's the reason I didn't post @ Games in Production. It uses a much more flexible and modern engine called Wintermute (www.dead-code.org), which even has an experimental support for 3D models which our team will use.

This is going to be a hi-res (800x600) 3D (3D character and object models) Space Quest III remake, featuring enhanced music and plot.

This thread was started mainly to introduce the new project to the ones who followed the old one @ Games in Production.

Good news for us since that way the game will even been better. Any plans to release a playable demo of the canceled VGA version (just to kill time while we wait)?

Sorry, we're damn busy with real life already to slow down SQ3 remake production like this. But we'll certainly release some media to keep you interested.

Too bad you are starting all over, because then we have to wait more time.
And please resease some more media of the old project.
