Hello everyone,
I'm part of the BYTE RANGER Software team, and we would like to continue the development of Indiana Jones and the Fountain of Youth, which was discontinued in 2021 by Screen7.
We believe this project deserves to live on, and we want to carry it forward in the spirit of the original vision – for all fans of classic point-and-click adventures.
We are currently gathering resources and therefore reaching out to see if any former developers, artists, writers, or contributors of the FOY project are still active here in the AGS community.
We have already gratefully made use of the documents that were shared in this thread:
👉 Remnants of a long project – The Fountain of Youth
However, any additional material – such as:
...would save us significant time and help ensure that our continuation stays as true as possible to the original project.
To make sure that this work remains accessible to the whole community, the project will be developed as an open-source repository on GitHub.
Our goal is to preserve and expand Fountain of Youth, while honoring and building upon the amazing work already done by the original team.
👉 If you were involved in the project (or know someone who was), we would be very happy if you could get in touch with us.
You can reply directly here in the forum or contact us via email: ByteRanger@gmx.de
Thank you very much for your time and support – and of course for all the great work that has already been done on Fountain of Youth!
Best regards,
BYTE RANGER Software Team
