Title: Ben Jordan Case 6 *Update 12/19/06* Trailer
Post by: Grundislav on Thu 02/11/2006 05:48:37
Grundislav Games presents:

Ben Jordan: Paranormal Investigator
in
Case 6: Scourge of the Sea People

The Story

After Alice's near-fatal poisoning in Japan, the paranormal investigators decide a vacation is in order.  They travel to Greece, and find themselves in the remote fishing village of Agia Anna, where they learn that even while on vacation, their work is never done.  It seems the Sea People have been taking the villagers, leaving distinct drag marks on the beach. 

Ben, Simon, and Alice must investigate and stop the SCOURGE OF THE SEA PEOPLE!

The Screenshots

The Release Date
Sometime in 2007.  And that's a promise!

Graphics - 50%
Music - 30%

Be sure to check out the official site (http://www.grundislavgames.com/benjordan), specifically, the online version of the Paranormal Investigator's Handbook (http://www.grundislavgames.com/benjordan/handbook) for a few hints as to what you can expect.

*UPDATE* December 19, 2006
As an early Christmas present, I present a terrible quality trailer (http://www.grundislavgames.com/crap/bj6trailer.wmv) for BJ6.  It shows some gameplay footage, mostly of Ben walking, but the song makes up for it!

Looks really great. I love the Ben Jordan Games and I think and hope that the new episode will be good.

I hope he journeys to Germany or to Romania after this one.

Surely Benidorm will be the next adventure for BJ...?

Anyway. Darn you Grundislav, now I have to edit that interview we did to take out references to there not being a BJ6 GIP thread... :(

Oh my God...
I'VE BEEN WAITING ALL YEAR FOR THIS!
This makes me giddy like a schoolgirl.

Post by: Ali on Thu 02/11/2006 16:35:38
I'm thrilled!

(Though slightly less thrilled than I was for the brief moment when I thought I was in Completed Games.)

Huzzah, all the same!

Me too, I can't wait in playing.

Grundislav you have answered my prayers!!! I've been waiting so long for this!!!

Post by: sergiocornaga on Sat 04/11/2006 03:16:48
I trust that this isn't a "premature" thread. When it comes to Ben Jordan, creating a GIP thread any longer than two weeks before release is a bad idea.
Title: Re: Ben Jordan Case 6
Post by: KuroShiro on Sat 04/11/2006 06:44:23
Yayyyyyyyy. I was hoping this thread would appear one of these days. It is without a doubt the AGS game I'm most looking forward to.

Keep up the great work - I'm sure this game will be just as good as the previous ones.

Ha, I look forward to spending another night over the next title. Keep it up, the graphics have never been this good, I can't wait. :)

Look excellent, and since I enjoyed the other games of this series, it only can get better.

Excellent. :D

Now a time of bittersweet waiting begins. :-\

Wow. It... is... coming...

You're on a roll it seems Grundislav.

can't wait!
and since youve made a GiP thread, i'm getting it must be SOON!
Title: Re: Ben Jordan Case 6
Post by: Adamski on Thu 09/11/2006 17:24:24
Just so people know now, it probably won't be released until after New Years. We both have a lot of work left to do on it! But there won't be the same hold-up as last time, and if there is you can all officially shout at me. 
Title: Re: Ben Jordan Case 6

didn't last time a hurricain blow everything away ?

Looks good, but what is the matter with those low-quality screenshots?
Title: Re: Ben Jordan Case 6
Post by: Sam. on Mon 13/11/2006 15:18:07
WHEN IS THIS COMING OUT?
Title: Re: Ben Jordan Case 6
Post by: Hamelkart on Mon 13/11/2006 18:20:55
Haha. I think moderators should put a large red sign "DON'T ASK ABOUT A RELEASE DATE!!!" near topic every time the new "Ben Jordan" is about to come out.
Title: Re: Ben Jordan Case 6
Post by: Petra on Wed 15/11/2006 16:16:43
This is looking great as all former Ben Jordan games ;D

Good luck for finishing it soon :)

Post by: Layabout on Wed 15/11/2006 17:45:16
how did he manage to row that boat all the way to an island. Everyone knows you can't actually do that! Looks great anyway...
Title: Re: Ben Jordan Case 6
Post by: Grundislav on Wed 15/11/2006 20:34:46
Heh, he doesn't row the dinghy from very far. You just can't see the big boat he came from in that screenshot.
Title: Re: Ben Jordan Case 6
Post by: Layabout on Thu 16/11/2006 01:38:17
You should incorporate a scene where you see 2 idiots in a boat... i dont know why..
Title: Re: Ben Jordan Case 6
Post by: on Thu 16/11/2006 01:49:22
Looking very nice, Grundislav!! You already explained to me what the third screenshot is an homage too - but what about the first one? Am I right to recognise it? ;)

Awesome :) I can't wait to set foot on it again!
Title: Re: Ben Jordan Case 6
Post by: Dan_N on Mon 20/11/2006 09:39:06
Wow, Grundislav, you don't cease to amaze me! I hope it'll be a genuine horror game...

And I also think you should bring ol' BJ over to Romania. We gots vampires, we gots zombies, we gots ghosts, we gots gypsies (lots and lots and lots of gypsies), not to mention trash. Yeah! Trash! We've got so much trash that you wouldn't need any other puzzles than digging through trash!

Anyway, looks great, and can't wait for it!

* hopes that Grundislav used AGS 2.72 that supports hardware mixer sound *

Cheers, and keep up the good work!

Bumpetty bump. New screenshot in the first post in honor of Release Something.

Post by: BerserkerTails on Sat 25/11/2006 21:14:21
Can't wait Grundislav, should be greta like the rest of the BJ games. And that last screenshot reminds me a lot of King's Quest 6... I think it was the Isle of the Beast or something... Anyway, anything that reminds me of KQ6 is sure to be amazing!

Post by: Bjyman on Sat 25/11/2006 21:57:25
I see Ben Jordan has his original clothes back.  Was the change ever explained in the first place?
Title: Re: Ben Jordan Case 6
Post by: Pet Terry on Sat 25/11/2006 22:05:22
I don't know about you, but I tend to change clothes I wear every now and then.
Title: Re: Ben Jordan Case 6
Post by: Bjyman on Sat 25/11/2006 22:44:10
He didnt change his clothes in the first three games.

Its the standard paronarmal investigator uniform.

WOOOOHOOO!! BJ 6 (is it just me or do other people have to fight the urge to giggle when they say BJ?)  I love the look so far, I'm pretty sure that last picture is supposed to look like Isle of the Beast from KQ6.

mmm Paranormal Investigating

As always, I'll hold my breath until it's released.
