*spooges*

There goes any hope of getting actual work done today.

Telltale's a small developer, and they've said in the past that they simply don't have the resources for multiplatform development. Hopefully that'll change (the more people playing this, the better), but I wouldn't bet on it anytime soon.

What type of game is it? Is it any fun?

 

[Musashi Wins!]

Please post ongoing impressions, kids!

 

[pcostabel]

It's a point and click adventure with some simple action sequences. Looks like low budget fun, if you know what I mean.

It's an RTS set in medieval times. It's a blast.

 

[Coop]

Sweet, ill d/l it after class today.

 

[Father_Brain]

I didn't know it was coming this soon. Can't wait to see some impressions. (I have a Mac... sigh.)

 

[Particle Physicist]

i'll try this out i love me some point and click adventure games.

 

[Vark]

I don't know about activation but doesn't Virtual PC have decent DX support now? Or is that up and coming?

The game doesn't use shaders or anything but it does use DX 8.1 so I dunno.

I don't have VPC so i can't test it on my mac.

Anyway, haven't gotten much further than whats in the demo (infernal work!).

It's a little rough around the edges here and there, but nothing totally game breaking and considering the price, nothign you wouldn't expect.

The conversation system looks like it could get really interesting later on and I was already having fun with it (you can talk to multiple people at once and go back and forth, which changes their perspective conversation trees).

Other than that, its good ole' fashioned point and click.

There's definitely a lot of potential here, I think once they get some more money and a few more episodes under their belt, the polish will be there.

Havin' fun with the demo and will definitely cough up the $20 for the full version. No doubt you need to appreaciate Bone and/or old fashioned point-and-click to get any use out of it, but thankfully I like both.

It it makes you feel any better it'll run on a PIII 800 with 256 megs of ram and a budget DX 8 card.

 

[Snookie]

Is it anything like Mr.Bones?

 

[Beer Monkey]

It's like Skullmonkeys.

 

[Ghost]

*sigh* Why did they have to use the wierd download client? It keeps freezing up for me.

 

[RazzleDazzleRB]

Does anyone know how many hours of game play is in this? Is it like a full game? Because if not, $20 could be expensive. What if 4 of them equal a whole game, that is $80. I love point and click, but not that much.

 

[Fix]

Pretty cool, but I wonder how long it will be. It was a pretty small install.

 

[Ultra Magnanimous]

Thought the demo was much too short. Theres not really much there to base an opinion upon yet so I think I'll wait for impressions of the full version before I part with my cash.
