Hi everyone,
I'm proud to present "TALES" the new game by Ape Marina. A TECH-DEMO of the game is available (see bottom of the post).

An out of work layabout, Alfred Walsh, thinks he has found a cushy job as the custodian of a private library. He has no idea how wrong he could have been. When otherworldly forces intrude he is forced to abandon his career path: the casual dusting off of books between well-earned naps, and is thrust into a battle to save the very heart and soul of what makes humanity what it is.

I have to thank all the people who are sending me feedbacks.
I implemented a lot of features.
Work's going on well.
I'd like to show you some new screenshots:

You can now vote for Tales on Greenlight! http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=494079360
Thank you!
And a rolling demo, in the form of an early preview, in the shape of a YouTube video ;)

(sorry the quality is a bit low on this particular edition, a full HQ trailer in due course :))
The game itself is currently getting a little bit of extra programming but soon we should have some voices recorded and a new demo ready. Keep an eye out! More info on the Greenlight page. The game features original music by Luigi Di Guida (which is ace, but am not spoiling it just yet ;))
Kudos if you recognize the (brief) voice in the trailer ;)
Just a quick one, here's a track from the game to listen to:

"Jungle" by Luigi Di Guida - http://www.luigidiguida.it/?lang=en
Hoping things go smoothly enough to get this out in December or by end of year. Through Ape Marina's diligence, the game itself is certainly solid and ready. Ultimately just voices to do, translations, a bit more testing & Steam setup. The plan is also to have it at GOG and some other places (drm-free). Not sure what I'll be back to personally say until the new demo/website is ready but in the meantime please do vote on greenlight if you get a chance, thank you! http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=494079360
Should be something to see/play at AdventureX too, providing the developers are ok with that? ;)
Everyone's posting today! As such...here's the Tales trailer :)
You may not learn anything new (especially if you played the demo) but you will certainly learn a lot of names...
I'm not sure if it's showing subtitles for me or for everyone. Either way, translated trailer subtitles will be available soon enough for those who will be playing in other languages!

You saw it here first! Well, unless you watched a Screen 7 Live stream I did the other night, then you saw it there first. But we are releasing the game on Nov 14th. I assure you, you heard that here first :)
Thanks to Andrea, Mandle and everyone involved especially now as things get hectic towards the inevitable version 1.0.0 bug that everyone experiences I mean, release :) It's solid... it's a great point n click, but you can be the judge, jury and executioner on that one soon enough, cos I might just be media bias...
Specific release related info to follow. Thanks for keeping an interest in Tales! or, Taaaaaaaaallllleeeeessss ;)
EDIT: Steam coming soon, feel free to wishlist it! http://store.steampowered.com/app/416250/
