Creator Ben Etherington - Order of the Goat on May 16

Well one time, when it froze I refreshed the page and couldn't get back for 5-10 minutes.

Bit of connection issues, but no problem in getting to the code jam. Sometimes it takes a while before the password is activated. :)

Creator Ben Etherington - Order of the Goat on May 16

Justin tv down folks? I can't access code jam anymore. It just tells me the page is unavailable.

Creator Firas Alayyoubi on May 16

codejam canceled? password doesn't seem to be working

(no wonder about being quoted on Steam entry)

Creator speedster annelid dreamer $6.13 on May 15

Martin, no wonder -- your reviews are well written and tend to bring up unique points

Creator Julie Robbins - Order of the Goat on May 14

Ok thanks Nina, Hope you are keeping well? x

Oh cool, look forward to it Nina. :)

Creator Nina - Revolution - Order of the Goat on May 14

Hey guys! Just leaving a quick comment to say that I've been receiving a few messages asking for an update. So I hope to put a summative update on Kickstarter sometime this week. Please bear with me. :)

Creator Martin Mulrooney ⌠⌠ Order of the Goat ⌠⌠ on May 13

@speedster: Hello! How are you? The Doug TenNapel Sketchbook looks fantastic, I hope he starts sending out the UK orders soon :)

I've got quite a few interviews and reviews in the pipeline - my most recent interview that I've just posted is with Tom Szirtes (The Realm Kickstarter, Lantern Interactive):

http://alternativemagazineonline.co.uk/2013/05/13/interview-in-conversation-with-tom-szirtes-the-realm-kickstarter-lantern-interactive/

I'm also working on an interview with Remigiusz Michalski, creator of Downfall and The Cat Lady (http://alternativemagazineonline.co.uk/2013/03/05/game-review-the-cat-lady-pc/).

I was delighted when I recently discovered that my review was quoted in a Steam Greenlight trailer for The Cat Lady alongside such websites as JustAdventure.com and Adventure Classic Gaming (who I also happen to write for!)

I'm very busy with my job but rest assured I'm also still very busy with Alternative Magazine Online :)

Looks like the change to Thursdays concerning Code Jams is maintained. This means I will be unable to attend the next one. Theoretically I could attend the first half hour. However, I've got another appointment the day before. Having three events in two days would probably lead to extra stress, and subsequently a migraine later on. There's also the fact in order to attend a Code Jam at 19:30 CE(S)T I have to take extra measures, leading to yet extra stress. So this will be the first Code Jam where Palindrome_Bob will not feature on the comments. :-(

Martin, got any reviews or interviews in the works for this month?

Creator Stew - OotG Knight & OotGC Krazy Dreamer on May 8

Also got a little Goat joke comp going on the OotG page, if anyone wants to join in. ;)

@Stephen AFAIK everything will be sent out together when the game is finished. :)

Creator Geralt on May 8

When are we supposed to receive any physical items we were supposed to receive from backing this project? Since it is now May, and I have not received anything yet.

Creator speedster annelid dreamer $6.13 on May 7

Plus I'm really intrigued by Doug's recent hints in updates about an upcoming adventure game project with some of his old colleagues!

Creator speedster annelid dreamer $6.13 on May 7

Martin, I got my first (of two) Doug TenNapel sketchbooks last night! I predict a new glowing AMO review after you get yours, it definitely turned out as hoped...

Creator Stew - OotG Knight & OotGC Krazy Dreamer on May 7

Yes I read that over the weekend, congrats to Charles! It's great news. :)

Creator Palindrome Bob-XSF-I'm in AGL589-AK666 on May 7

Congrats Charles!

Creator Richard - 'Order Of The Coal Black Goat' on May 6

Craig, the only updates are all on Tonys' Blog or the development diary page on the site. Release date is November right now, last I read anyway.

Creator Craig McGuire on May 3

Anymore updates I.e screen shots, storyline, release date?

Creator speedster annelid dreamer $6.13 on May 3

I believe the GoG version was pre-patched. Something to verify however. On the other hand, my legacy fglrx driver could have been what was interfering, so it also occurs to me that I should try again with the free radeon driver.

Creator S.D. on May 3

Really? Did you patch it with the v1.1 patch from http://revolution.co.uk/support/bs4/ ? WineHQ claims Platinum support for v1.1 (Wine 1.5.14, the reporter was running Gentoo, tested it November of last year). Perhaps the patch (related to CPU affinity on multi-core machines) is necessary. I cannot corroborate the report, but that seems pretty definitive. I generally do as you've described, but because I knew that BS1/2 run perfectly in ScummVM, I didn't bother (I knew I'd be playing through both of them, first). :-)

Creator speedster annelid dreamer $6.13 on May 2

S.D. I have BS 3 working fine in wine, just have to play it in windowed mode with "explorer" arg. I don't think BS 4 has cooperated at all though (I tried getting them all started before settling down to play them in order)

Creator S.D. on May 2

I'm replaying all of them... it's time to get BS3 working under Wine on Linux & then play it for the first time (BS4 would be next). Assuming that I can get that to work reasonably well, I feel like I can give it a fair shake, given that I know Rev's side of the story.

Creator speedster annelid dreamer $6.13 on May 2

Got a chance to play BS 1 again the other night, quite a treat to play

Creator Gromber Fox on April 29

listeing ireland song from bs 1 good remembers!

Creator Samuel Johnson OOTG on April 29

also im thinking of upgrading my donation to 500 from 57.77 as i recently won 5 grand and dammit i want that chest

Creator Samuel Johnson OOTG on April 29

does anyone know when we will be getting the beta?

Creator Aleix on April 29

Don't need to rush to make a good game. OMPO don't care at all if I have to wait, but I care about playing a great brokensword game. If it takes a year or two longer, I'll patiently wait. There are hundreds of finished great games to play.

Ahh very cool Martin. I think you will find it an interesting topic for AMO.

Creator Martin Mulrooney ⌠⌠ Order of the Goat ⌠⌠ on April 28

@Speedster - I'm still here! Just very busy - I check here regularly though and read all comments even if I don't comment myself. Thanks for the email about The Realm, I'll look into it. :)

Creator speedster annelid dreamer $6.13 on April 28

Rinu is right, The Realm looks very promising if only it can get funded

Creator speedster annelid dreamer $6.13 on April 28

Hmm too bad Martin doesn't seem to be showing up here for the last couple months; I wanted to suggest an interview with The Realm folks

Creator Stew - OotG Knight & OotGC Krazy Dreamer on April 25

@Michel September is the release we've been given, might be october but definitely this autumn. :)

Creator Michel Baumann on April 25

I just realized that this game was supposed to be out this month... I guess this game is still a good year away, right? Any real news on the release date?

Creator Rinu on April 25

The Realm looks absolutely amazing! I hope it will find enough backers.

Creator Stew - OotG Knight & OotGC Krazy Dreamer on April 23

Hope you're all doing well. :)
Couple of Adventure games people might like:
A Small favor, which looks great and has a few familiar face on there. ;)

Even more familiar faces backing it. ;)

Palindrome Bob, the self-referential aspect of TLA is cool :)
Though some fields are so in love with acronyms that it makes their documents really hard to read.
