After several character design concept teasers, Ron Gilbert's game is finally announced.  It will be published by SEGA.  Looks stunning, and definitely still carries his signature style.  Looking forward to this :)

Adventure games are go!

So with the continued success of Kickstarter, the adventure game genre is finally getting a revival!  All the old masters are crawling out from under the woodwork to get their new/remake game proposals funded, and they are doing well.  Al Lowe is pitching a remake of Leisure Suit Larry 1, which if successful, will pave the way for him, and the rest of the team at Replay games, to start making new Larry titles.  Tim Schafer has had great success with his kickstarter efforts, with a goal of $400k, they actually raised just shy of $3.5 million to make Double Fine adventures.  Jane Jensen, also an ex Sierra Online employee and creator of the Gabriel Knight games is raising funds to start a project where backers will get access to all the games they produce over that year, and get input into some big decisions in the games' development.

I have also just discovered today, that on top of all this, Scott Murphy and Mark Crowe (the original creators of Space Quest) has teamed back up again with a new company called Two Guys from Andromeda, to continue making space related adventure games.

I genuinely hope that all these projects and more get the go-ahead and get the genre back in the public eye, and that the bottom doesn't fall out of this kickstarter trend before that happens!
