Unemployment Quest... NOW FREEWARE!
Hey all!
I can't believe it's been five years since I released Unemployment Quest. The game exceeded my expectations in terms of how many people connected with it and I really appreciate everyone who's supported the game. I expect that this will be my last update.
Unfortunately I also allowed the game to vanish from the internet for the past couple of years. I can only attribute this to my own laziness and preference for staying out of the limelight. But people sometimes ask me about getting the game and I've finally made it available again! To download a copy, just head on over to UnemploymentQuest.com and pick your download!
If anyone's looking for a CD copy, YES I do still have copies. I can't mail them out for free, but if you want one, just send me a message. I can't give them out totally for free, but I'll make them affordable - $7 if you live in the US, $15 for international orders.
You might be wondering where life has taken me since making the game... well, now I'm a full-time public librarian at a small town in upstate New York! I love my job, feel like I'm doing good in the world, I feel like I'm in a psychologically healthy place, and have as much stability as I think I could hope for. Things are good!
And you might be wondering about the illustrator who created the disc's cover-art, Rayna Sassano. She has a Kickstarter project of her own to publish Lumine - an illustrated origin story. The publication of this book has been a goal of her's since she was a teenager. She needs help for it to get released and the project ends in a week, so please consider backing her project!
Again, I'd like to thank everyone who's supported me and this project in any capacity over the years. It really means a lot. I'm a bit of a cyber-hermit and want to avoid the spotlight of internet-fame. But if you have any questions for me, I'd still be happy to answer them. Feel free to send me a message!
