KQ3VGA by IA Now Released

[awesomeasapossum]

Well I got my rejection letter, so they chose the testers.

I'm sorry that you didn't get it.

[Rosella]

Meh, it's no big deal.

Now beta-testing for TSL on the other hand...

[Oldbushie]

If I were to betatest TSL, I'd try to screw it up as best as possible.

You do realize that you can't play as Connor, don't you?
Now if Alexander could destroy houses....

I just tried the website and saw that it was back up and running.

[Shewofdaventry]

yeah they just had an update as well.  Looks like things are going well and a release date just around the corner

[Swift]

KQ3 has a new forum.

[Yonkey]

Woo! It's SMF!

[Oldbushie]

Hooray! *clicks around it*

[Stones Of Stealth]

wicked... anyone know of any specific yet?

[J-Rod]

I noticed a new blog entry last night on their myspace, dated June 9th. He mentions KQIII looking great and won't be long "AT ALL" before it is out. Then the best part, however, is that he gives us a time frame for the game's release:

I'm going to say not less than 5 days but not more than 30.

I'm excited! O_O

[Oldbushie]

Woohoo!

*dances in joy*

KQIIIVGA is out!!!!!

[Broomie]

That's right, the long damn wait is over. I smile with joy as I type these words in, thinking if this day was ever to come. The production is over, the testers are done and everything is ready to go. King's Quest III has finally been released. Remember this date, the 19th of June. The day KQ3 was released!



It’s been twenty years since the evil wizard Manannan first appeared on our computer screens, but now, thanks to the hard work and dedication of the team at Infamous Adventures, he’s back!

Kings Quest 3 : To Heir is Human was first released by Sierra On-Line back in 1986. As the second sequel to the hugely popular and successful Kings Quest series, it fast became a fan favourite. Roberta Williams, author of the Kings Quest series, broke new ground in computer games, introducing players to the magic map concept (making travel quicker between screens), timed puzzles and an in-depth spell casting system. All these things are standard fare in today’s games, but were original concepts in 1986.

Unfortunately, due to the advances made in computer technology over the last twenty years, such classic games no longer run on the modern computer. It was with this in mind that Infamous Adventures decided to remake this game, bringing it up to the quality of Kings Quest 5 & 6. Klytos, Executive Producer of IA’s Kings Quest 3 had this to say. “We just love this game and felt that even twenty years later the story was relevant and, more importantly, still fun. We wanted to introduce a new generation of gamers to this classic and show older players who remember the original something new and special. We think we’ve done this, but it’s up to the fans to tell us what they think.”

Boasting all new full VGA backgrounds, enhanced hand-drawn close up cut-scenes, dialog portraits for all the characters, original music by our professional composer, full speech pack (including narrator) and a new point-and-click interface, make Infamous Adventures’ remake of Kings Quest III one of the best remakes on the fan-game market. And the best part is, it’s free!

Re-experience this timeless adventure now at www.infamous-adventures.com.



We would love to give a huge thanks to everyone involved in this project, too many to name but you know who you are. Yet that's not it, it's you the fans who kept us going. We would love to give you the biggest of thanks out of anyone, I mean if we just had tumbleweed as support I don't think we'd have got very far. Anyway, I know you want to play the game. Well, go right ahead.

DOWNLOAD KING'S QUEST III NOW!

The voice pack will be released next week, we didn't want you guys to wait any longer. Don't worry, you won't have to redownload the game just for the voice pack. Just simply add the file to the program and boom, you're off!

Again, I'd like to say thanks to everyone who contributed, whether it be the team or the fans, this game is for you. Enjoy.

[Deloria]

Awesome! Thanks Broomie!!!

[Vildern]

That's fabulous! I cannot believe I'm reading this…    !   I cannot wait to play it, though I'll be able to do it only in 6 hours or so… gotta go to work now.


Anyway, this is great news. Thanks IA, thanks Broomie! 

[Storm]

YAY!!
I'm at work now, but I can't wait to get home and d/l it!
Thanks IA, for all your hard work - especially Broomie for keeping us here updated
TBH I never thought it would be finished this soon... Hopefully, other games will follow suit *wink, wink* *nudge, nudge*

[Jafar]

Okay, okay, we'll work harder on the Jarada game.

[Yonkey]

Congrats Broomie!

I won't be able to play it until I have some free time (which may not happen for a few months ) but great job nonetheless!
