I'm not too fussed how large the download size will be, even if it was hitting a gig I'd still begin a download in an instant........

Still even if this is a large download maybe you could do something along the lines of if someone donates 'X' amount you'll post them a copy of the game on CD or something? I know there's some crazy rules and stuff surrounding effectively 'buying' a copy but Im sure people would be more than happy to cover costs of postage and cd if dial-up or download problems meant they couldn't actually grab the game.

Personally I miss buying pc games that come in big boxes with 50 page illustrated instruction booklets 5 disks and a whole bunch of other games related items (maps, collectors card etc.)....and although that's highly impractical would the team consider putting together some kind of 'pack' that could be 'obtained'? Because I know it would be awesome to actually have a copy of the soundtrack as an audio CD etc. as well as maybe some reprinted concept art stuff? I know in this digital age you can grab everything of the web anyways but still....it's nice to actually have hard copies of things too...and something looking this good surely deserves to be flattered with some realworld awesomeness

Anyways....I ramble...I know the final game is way off and there's so much to do without even considering stuff like this but just wanted to note some thoughts down as I really don't post on here as often as I should...

Keep up the great work!

Looking forward to seeing some more artwork / anything relating to The Forgotten Element soon!

Great work with the website! At work at the moment but will check it out in much greater depth later!

Bit poor this month but when the Feb paycheck rolls in I#ll be sure to donate a few pennies to the cause

Keep up the stunning work you lot!

Fantasticly atmospheric. I can't wait to hear more music for this project...Will be great to see how well the interactiveness of the music works when playing the game also.

This whole project really is shapeing up to be something quite special, from the art and animation to sound and story hints so far this is going to be such an amazing adventure


Keep the updates coming you guys! Always good to hear from you on here! I'll look forward to seeing a website up nearer the prologues release and I'll definately be chippin in a few £ when the prologues out and the donation button is up!

2007 is the year that The Forgotten Element will be released (and I'm not talking about December 2007... but earlier...)

November?  :o

Any new news Dan?

Been keeping an eye on this for well...forever now Looks fantastic...was really interested in seeing if the animation would be to the standard of the artwork and well...I think it's fantastic I haven't seen stuff this good for years. Love hand drawn animation, always gives more character and little details...

Seriously...im drooling *wipes chin* and I can't wait for more updates and to eventually get hold of this!

Keep up the fantastic work

Well it all sounds rather awesome will look forward to reading more updates as they come!

Good to hear things are still progressing. This is another adventure game im eagerly awaiting to have a good ole go at. Just hope the story matches the great artwork!

Hey Dan, hope the projects still going ok. July is rapdily approaching! Eeep!

I found myself doodling a random fisherman the other day...think I must have Lost Lagoon on the brain!? Thought you might like to see him as I guess he was kinda inspired by all the norticalness of this games development lol

Hey Dan! Any new news? 

Ah no worries! Id rather see it polished than rushed!

Just keep throwing us all some snippets to wet our appetites and we'll all be happy til July

Thats awesome news! I can't wait to see how this progresses over the next few months! It will also make your uni life a lot more fun! I always prefered projects I really had a passion for...I'll be checking back here regularly to see how things go from here!

Ahhh this has made my day. Great news.

Good luck Dan!

Great news Hoorah for the hat!

The intro cutscene idea sounds really good. In my head it looks just like the intros to Sam n Max or Day of the Tenticle...just with a little girl and a crazy hotdog costume guy rather than tenticles or manic rabbit thing!

Keep up the great work, here's hopeing for another news update soon!

[edit by Darth]

Hey there. I've been following this game and reading this thread since the first piece of artwork for it hit the scene. I have however only visited these forums as a guest. I finally decided today I should sign up and post some support for this project!

It really seems to be shapeing up to be something special. You can tell by the detail and time spent on the artwork and from the way you go about talking about it. It's a project of love...and because it's not being rushed I think the quality and love will shine through!

You really do have a fantastic art style and it reminds me of many fond memories playing the old Lucasart adventures...Great stuff!

Anyways, really thats all I wanted to say! I always enjoy the updates and to be honest I'm suprised you haven't set up any kind of website to keep people informed of progress...I guess it all comes down to time really. I think it would be neat though to one day see a beautiful site full of updates on progress, concepts, teaser artwork and test animations etc. and when the game is eventually complete it would be home to the release.

Oooh I'm rambling again. Must calm down.

Good luck with everything and I hope you see this out to its conclusion! I shall check back regularly in the vague hope of spotting something new here!?!

Laters for now!

P.S. I have to say I am also very fond of the girls ole hat it gave her lots of character but alas kinda made her look REALLY young. Hope it manages to find its way back into the game sometime in some form or another!
