over 8 years ago – Fri, Oct 30, 2015 at 11:59:12 PM

 The Order of the Thorne: The King's Challenge has been Greenlit on Steam!!  In only 11 days, you all managed to get it on there for us!  Thank you so much to all who supported us by voting, sharing, etc.

OotT: The King's Challenge will be available on Steam, GoG.com and Humble - we'll have a release date for it coming soon, but I can tell you we're winding down production on this as we speak!  Finishing the voices, and a bit more testing and it's out the door!  I hope you enjoy it!

QFI: RtR will be coming out after OotT, so keep your eyes peeled for that as well!  Thank you again, to all!

Progress Report!

A General Update on the Projects

Hey friends! I was reminded by a backer that I hadn't posted an update since the end of August, and I couldn't believe it! September was a blur!! We've been working a lot on the games - in fact, currently, we're casting the voices for The Order of the Thorne: The King's Challenge. We've been listening to auditions all week, and we've had some amazing people try out. I'm very excited to get voices into the game because it's almost completed!

We've had a few people play the alpha, and we've gotten some great feedback on it.  Bt went out to Salt Lake City, where Infamous Quests had a booth at the Salt Lake Comic Con! It was an amazing time; we had a lot of great people stop by the booth, some were fans who had already played QFI, and many people bought copies of the game on Steam right there at the booth! One gentleman whipped out his smartphone, bought it and set it to download when so he could play it when he got home!

We also had a preview version of The King's Challenge out and the feedback on that was really great too! We're very excited for The Order of the Thorne - with the first game, The King's Challenge being very close to done, we've been working on the next installment, Fortress of Fire more recently.  We're having a lot of fun writing the story and connecting the lore of the game.

Quest for Infamy: Roehm to Ruin is coming right along too - we have only a very few bits to finish up on that, programming wise, and a few animations to complete.  We'll be casting voice actors for that really soon, and Steve Patrick will be returning as the voice of Mr. Roehm!

We're also going to be launching a Steam Greenlight to get The Order of the Thorne on Steam, as we're self-publishing this game.  We've already been approved on GoG.com and Humble, so when the Steam Greenlight campaign launches, we're going to need your help - vote for us, spread the work on social media, etc.

Infamous Quests also has a booth at the Retro Game Con in Syracuse, NY, on Nov. 14th - Cinemassacre and the Angry Video Game Nerd are going to be there, along with another Kickstarter Project (That we backed!) called "The New 8-Bit Heros" by Joe Granato is going to be there. 

So, TL;DR

 - OotT: TKC is almost finished and a release date will be announced soon!

- QFI: Roehm to Ruin is almost finished as well, and a release date will be announced soon!

- OotT: FoF is in production, and will be released sometime in 2016

Thanks again to everyone for your support!

Projects Update: Backerkit Closing!
over 8 years ago – Tue, Aug 25, 2015 at 06:24:29 PM

Hey friends and fans,

Well - we're trucking right along here.  Our games are in full blown production; we'll actually be moving on to recording voice actors very soon, and beta testing in the next two months.  So, to those who are interested and/or have pledged for early access, keep and eye out for that!

 BACKERKIT CLOSING 8/31

Now, this is the big news - Backerkit will be closing on August 31st, which means your cards will be charged then - if you want to add big boxes and physical rewards, this is it!  If you haven't filled out your backerkit rewards, head on over and do so.  If you're having problems, let me know.

We're continuing to move along here - the games are coming along really well.  I can't wait to share them with you all.  Heh, like, I'm really biting my lip here to keep from saying more about the games, and sharing more artwork and animations that have been done.  Let's just say the animation team is really turning out some great work lately, and it's making everyone on the team a bit more inspired.  I still get excited about these games, even after all these years.

Thank you for your support, as usual.  We couldn't do it without you - and, as always, any questions - please feel free to contact me here or via email - info at infamous-quests.com

Mid-July Update
over 8 years ago – Tue, Aug 04, 2015 at 02:52:19 PM

Hey there adventure friends!

Production is in full swing on both The King's Challenge and Roehm to Ruin!  The team has been working really hard, turning in new art, animations and music almost daily.  It's fun to see the projects starting to come together.

ORDER OF THE THORNE

The King's Challenge

Right now, the bones of the entire game are there!  We have a playable version, from start to finish, but we're putting on the meat of the game - beefing up the art and animations, and punching up the script and interactions.  I'm very excited about the musical interactions with the lute in the game - working on the songs for those has been fun for me, as I've had the pleasure of collaborating with our composer, James Mulvale, in composing the little ditties Finn the Bard plays during the game.  James took the rough demos I recorded with a cheap guitar and crappy microphone, and turned them into beautiful little works.

QUEST FOR INFAMY

Roehm to Ruin

Roehm to Ruin is taking shape as well!  Expanding on the areas we had in our game jam version, our artist "Fizzii" has created several new areas to explore, and our resident wunderkind, James "Broomie" Broom has written several new puzzles to keep Roehm occupied as he and his buddies work on their planned heist at the Baron's castle.

This game is shaping up to be a very fun little adventure that sheds some light on Roehm's past - and possibly... his future?

BACKERKIT

Just a reminder to all backers - we will be closing Backerkit and charging cards on August 31st - if you need to make alternate arrangements, please let me know personally and I will accommodate you!  You can still add on items in Backerkit until then, so if you want a big box, etc - you can still get in on it.  If you missed the kickstarter, you can get in on it by clicking here.

THANK YOU!

Again, thank you all - we've been so busy, all of us - between working on these games, to busy home lives and for some of us, finishing up the loose ends on other projects, it's just been a crazy few months.  We really do have the best fans - your notes on facebook, twitter, email - they mean a lot to us.  So thank you if you've taken the time out to encourage us.

Follow us on facebook and twitter for more updates or random babble.

See you all soon!
