The track sounds great, man.  It's cool to see how you've developed musically over the years.

This game has been on my "list" for three years!  I hope you finish this up, Squink.

I wasn't as impressed as I was with Spidey 2.

It's good - but I thought Spiderman 2 was better.

You hit the nail on the head with the woman thing. It's easy for me to talk to them, just hard to ask them on dates. Asking people out scares me to death.

Why?  Just do what I do.

Stroll right up to them, and say "Hey baby.... ever heard of AGS?  King's Quest III?  Yeah.  That's me.  I'm Blackthorne."

It's like freakin' Spanish Fly, I tell ya.  I've gotten more bumper than a body shop simply because of AGS.

When it comes to sex, there's no such thing as normal.

Anyone who says otherwise is just having bad sex.


And, to Alliance, there's been a lot of great advice and insights given in this thread, so I'm not going to repeat them all - I'll just say that teenage years can be a bit confusing - I was turned on by any and everything that was remotely sexual, so I know how weird it can get.  Just keep your head up, and if you're fortunate enough to have someone you rely on and trust enough to talk to, talk to 'em.

People often say "People don't choose to be homosexuals; they're born that way."

And while I feel that statement has some validity to it - there are most certainly people who are born attracted to the same sex - I've known a few people in my lifetime that have "chosen" to be gay for many reasons.  I actually believe most people are bi-sexual to some degree.

The only thing I have against gays is their fabulous ability to dance.

'Cause everyone knows the Gay agenda is REALLY to spread fabulous dance.

Did someone say having sex after marriage is more joyful??

Not according to my grandfather.  There's a reason his face droops and he has massive forearms.

People seem to be screaming "AGE OF CONSENT" around here.  Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you SHOULD.

I would probably loathe someone nine years younger than I.  In fact, I know some twenty year old girls that I downright want to soak in rubbing alcohol.

But, I suppose it's a little less creepy for a 29 year old to date a 20 year old.  When I was twenty-five, however, I'd never think of dating a 16 year old.  They're just kids at that age.

When I was 24, I hooked up with this really good looking girl.  She was so good looking, I got suspect - and yep - she was under 18.  And I felt dirty.  Until she turned 18 the next month.  Then I felt only slightly dirty.  But I gave up my young womanizing ways a few years ago.

I'm not making any sense.  Anyway, I think teens are off limits if you're an adult.  (In your twenties.)  But that's just me.  If it REALLY works for someone else, god bless ya.

I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the demo of this game... kudos, sir.  You've really put a lot of work into this, and it's been fun.

I can't wait for you guys to finish this!! It looks awesome!!! Space Quest 2 is one of my favorite Space Quests. Any idea how long untill you finish? Maybe 6 months or so?

There's no way to project a definite release date, but I can promise that we are working on this one rather quickly and efficiently.

Personally, I think the Yahtzee phenomenon (equal amounts of praise and slight disdain) come from the fact that his name is an AWESOME dice game.

Yeah, actually Space Quest II had a number of potential dead-ends already eliminated in it's original design.

For instance, there are several ways to "beat" the Labion Terror Beast, and get into the Ship Platform on Labion.

As Rich said, it's a 1:1 remake - we've added nothing to the story, but there were a few art and puzzle redesigns to fit the Point and Click model.

I have anemia, as well, and it can be a pain in the ass.  However, mine stems from the fact that my kidneys are dead and produce no hemotocrit, which stimulates the bone marrow to make red blood cells which carry oxygen in the blood stream.  I have to get shots of "Epogen" (Procrit), as a replacement for what my body doesn't make.  Most "normal" people can just take iron supplements.

Indy having a son in the film sounds like a really bad idea. Is sentimentality what they were looking for in a script?

It makes sense to me.  It's not like they're adding a little kid; they're talking about a full-grown, adult son.  It HAS been 26 years since "Raiders".

Song:Kid Charlemagne - Steely Dan http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylr2D4Pwn58
Comments: A funky take on San Fransico life, post 60's Hippie Culture.  Great arrangement and amazing solo (The album version, off of THE ROYAL SCAM)
How I discovered it: Playing my friend's old LP's when I was a kid.
Fun fact: Song makes many references to San Fransico culture, including The Merry Prankster's Bus "Further" ("Everyone stopped to stare at your Technicolor Motor Home")
