About time you got to see what we've lately been working on:


Those are the animations that will be used when you'll be using the Thumb. The last ones were really not that great. As for how is the beta testing going, well Leon (The Bugblaster Beast) is really doing some cool flow work.

What we need you?!
-Can you translate English to Anything? PM me.
-Can you voice act? PM me.


And well, a sort of fan made picture as well:

Triple post(Yep.) But it's for the kids!!! :D


Demo Updated.

At last, we've managed to get some free time and perform that task.
We've done a very huge update of the demo. I'm always suprised to see old versions of the game having those features  I've forgotten about.., anyway you can download the almost 6 MegaBytes of it, by clicking
DOWNLOAD

Hope it was worth it.

NEWS: 3 Translations are on their way, and thanks to Leon's comments, I've released how bad was the GUIDE looking. One of the best aspects of the game and I made the way it would suck so much ass, you'd be Alt+X.

So since we'll be redoing it from scratch any comments are really welcome here

Liked the idea of a "Mega Monkey" level  ;) Does the puzzles structure change anyhow?

Yes, indeed. The normal mode game is actually quite user friendly, while the hardcore is the best mode for purists that want the game as the original.

Retroremakes has written an announcement about this game, on the news page, being jolly about the game, and well, that's all. Linky and yay down below:

Well, CaptainD, has taken a small interview from me, the experience of which was really fun and wild things.
It can be found here:

Also, dare I say we're doing some good progress, and we're probably going to make it this year. That's what I said last year though. Anyway, we're all having some fun in the production.

So any important news?
Oh, yes indeed. Ptpt88 will be composing a digital music pack for the game, and as the choice was very difficult due to certain circumstances, I'm very glad he's on board. His music style is one very similar to Vangelis, and even if it might sound weird to you as a choice for the music, I was always after that, and I think it will fit.

Also Cryxo will be voice-acting prosser. We still lack some very small roles, including Zaphod Beeblebrox..and we also might have a suprise for you in the days to come.

QuoteWhat advice would you give to anyone thinking of making their own game?
Do it. Even if the goal (fame, fortune and really wild things) isn't achieved, the journey will be a really fun experience. And whatever you're making, focus on it being enjoyable rather than good looking.

Nice words Dual!

nice interview. You do actually sound smarter then you do on the forums  :=

I noticed that too. Probably it's the jet lag.

Okay, we just finished proofreading, and I'm about to say that we would pretty much be able to wrap this up within a month. Speech pack included.

Now to say, I'm really trying to give this game the best possible graphical quality. Due to the choice of putting in charge of the music, ptpt88 that will sure deliver a soundtrack that will blow your minds off (trust me he will), I fear he has raisen the limits to a great extent, therefore I think we're about to change a lot of graphics. As for speech pack, we have all the big roles settled.

I think we won't make this year though. :(

I'm really busy these days, with the MAGS and the blog and the uni. But I want you guys to know that the team is working on it. But life sometimes goes bananas.. ;D

Hehe, I don't think so, Dualy. Sounds like H2G2 is coming to the end quite nicely. You seem to have a good pace going as well.

Keep it up, you're building quite the fanbase!

Well, after a post on the site, I've decided it's about time to update the demo to the most recent date (today that is), so get it now I actually made some adjustments and its size is 3.5 mb but it features the same things and more than the old demo, also the music is the midi soundtrack and not the one we're preparing now..which will be available to play the game with if you prefer midi.


DEMO
Get it Here!
