Kickerstarters and old Adventure games: has anyone pledged?

[floweroftheforest]

I've backed double fine.Jane Jensons Moebious.space venture, leisure suit Larry,Tex murphy.lily looking through and broken sword.
Some of them I only backed because I am a fan of adventure games but I am really looking forward to the doublefine adventure and Jane's moebious.

I really meant Larry, but threw in SpaceVenture just so that I don't sound bias. I don't really care for SpaceVenture despite being a fan of Space Quest

I've backed Larry, SpaceVenture, Double Fine, and Broken Sword. I'm about ready for the respective companies/teams to wrap up production and ship me my games already!

Since I last posted I backed Hero U, Shadowgate, Inherit the Earth 2 (cancelled so they can retry the kickstarter again when they're better prepared), and Dreamfall Chapters (still going and looks like it's going to make it's funding).

I'm actually getting really excited at the prospect that the 2012 adventure kickstarters will start releasing their games soon.

Lessee..

- Double Fine Adventure
- Feeble's Fable (didn't make it)
- Leisure Suit Larry
- Jane Jenson's thing
- Rob Swigert's Portal (didn't make it)
- SpaceVenture
- Rob Swigert's Portal v2.0 (didn't make it - again)
- Tex Murphey - Project Fedora
- Reincarnation: The Root of All Evil
- Sam Suede in Undercover Exposure (didn't make it)
- Lilly Looking Through
- Quest for Infamy
- HeXit (didn't make it)
- Jack Houston and the Necronauts

...wow. That's a LOT. And here I thought RPGs were my favourite genre!

-Double Fine Adventure
-SpaceVenture

That's it. I would have backed Quest for Infamy if I had any cash left at the time. I also backed Ken Allen's Music Kickstarter: Under The Half Dome, which I and a few other musicians in the Sierra community (including James Mulvale from Quest For Infamy) are now going to be performing on.

Wow, he managed to find a legal provision that allows him to make updated versions of his original Sierra songs! Definitely backed by me! The Space Quest music was a huge inspiration for me to get involved in composing.

The only adventure game I've backed since my first post in this thread (which was around the time of the Broken Sword Kickstarter) is Dreamfall Chapters.

This is my new favorite to watch, Dreamfall Chapters, but I also funded Project Eternity. I am really hoping Dreamfall makes it, loved that series since the Longest Journey and would like to see the rest of the story.

In case you missed it, the guy himself posted here.

I moved his post over to the general Kickstarter thread (since this one's more for adventure games people have backed and the other one's more of a free-for-all) if you wanna check it out, maybe talk to him...

[MtnPeak]

I happily backed many of the same ones several of you did.

It looks like, out of the biggies, Leisure Suit Larry Reloaded is going to be the first to be released. I am very much looking forward to this one.

Also backed the fun-looking and beautiful Mage's Initiation recently... it's the game that I wish Hero-U had been, though I am going into Hero-U (which I also backed) with an open mind.

[Darth Marsden]

The thing about all these games is that, by the time they come out, I'll have forgotten all about them, so I'll be able to go into them with a fairly open mind. Awesome how that works out.

Well they certainly made their goal, right now they are trying to reach 1.5 million, so they can include previously sidelined features. Since they have 1.41 million now, and will allow PayPal donations after today, I figure they've got a good shot.

I can't say I've been very active supporting all the projects. Totally missed out on a few projects. Other than Dreamfall, there Quest for Infamy & Spaceventure.

Also part of another game called Mage's Initiation.

50 dollars on Dreamfall!
