@NickyNyce
From the maker of The Visitor, this is an awesome thing to say :)
Awesome! I wanna be a part of this!
your cartooning style IS my cup of tea! I see you already have many rooms, any demo?
Thanks PassionatePatty! and sorry no demo yet, will see about it :)
if you're interested, you can provide your beautiful voice talent ;)
I'd love to, but not with a video, is that possible?
yep. PM me your audio link or whatever form you are using...
how did I miss this :shocked: I read the announcement on your blog!
The game looks amazing and very well polished, there seems to be so much details in the backgrounds specially the planet screen shot..

Me too! I pretty enjoyed the first one and now I'm discovering fun stuff and Easter eggs :-D
AnasAbdin: How did you create the 2nd screen shot (interior)?

Yep, many events depend on BG animations ;)
Quote from: PassionatePatty on Sat 14/07/2012 09:36:26
How did you create the 2nd screen shot (interior)?
All ships, ships interiors and mechanical stuff were created using Google SketchUp, then imported into photoshop to color and put some effects...
cool! hey I know you are kinda careful and secretive about the story but can you tell me if some of the characters from TMH are going to appear here as well?
a couple yeah ;)
31 rooms already??? I have a feeling this is going to be one epic long space adventure!
how far -in gameplay terms- are 31 rooms?
< 10% of game play...
It will be one hell of a long journey...

A 5-year mission, perhaps? (Or even a continuing one...) :P
The third pic in your first post reminds of me Endor... really nice work. I guess I'll have to get round to playing the first game sometime!

you reminded me of Wing Commander 2, I was laughing with my younger brother when we first got it, the intro had stuff like: 10 days later, 20 months later, 40 years later...

I'm looking forward playing!!!
Midi or mp3??????
not that I'm against mp3 or anything... but I'm using midi for this part as well. I will post something soon :)
Blue Station is not midi :-\ lol j/k I love old school midi
still haven't played the first one... will there be a price drop on the first one or a bundeled sale? This is looking very interesting.
thanks selmiak, there will be changes, no bundle plans -yet-

teaser looks great and the squirrel is super cute :D
I really love the background music, very atmospheric.
thanks :) I'll post more of those whenever I get the chance :)
nice music, the planet feels mysterious and full of surprises!
thanks ~TongueSplit~ and you're right, I did include many animals and puzzles (and scary music)
but this is only one planet among many others in the game :D
may I know how you created the second bg? (ship interior and red lights) :kiss:
Google SketchUp and Photoshop :smiley:
just another tune
Womb of Monsters (http://anas-tronaut.blogspot.com/2012/09/womb-of-monsters.html)
maaaaaaaaaaan! the music is breathtaking!
the video is hot hot hot!!! specially @1:15!!!
I need a cold shower!
that was dreamy :) you are truly an inspiration.
thanks Kimbra, you're one of the best greatest supportive inspiring people pushing me to AGS more :)
You got some really cool ideas AnasAbdin, very well done. Every time I go swimming I picture the exact same things happening to me.
NickyNyce Thank you Mr. Visitor! Glad you liked my swimming routine :P
Always looking forward your games.
