Thank you to everyone!! Well, we're already working, so I suppose we're just going to keep our noses to the grindstone! I'll keep up periodic updates about progress on the games, and share goodies along the way.  I'm excited and these games are going to be great.

Thanks to you all - we couldn't do it without your support.

BT vs. MARMITE vs HOT SAUCE vs VEGEMITE

So, the legends are true.  After delays to treat my aching and injured body, I go and abuse it again for your amusement.  Here is our epic video.  You'll laugh.  You'll cry.  You'll hurl.  Feel the intensity.  You will believe that a man can fly... far far away from Marmite.  Here it is.  I hope you're proud of yourselves.  Especially YOU, Riggo.

Anyway, if you didn't watch the video, I do express our thanks to all of you for supporting us with Kickstarter.  It takes a lot to put yourself and your funds out there for people, and I'm glad you choose us.  We're going to make some great games, and I'm really excited for you all to play 'em.  Thank you again, so much.  From the bottom of this guys now Marmite filled heart.

Less than a Day Left!

Wow, I can't believe this month is almost over.  I just want to thank you ALL for your support for our projects.  Making adventure games is something special, and I'm just bowled over by the fact that you all have not only supported us in creating one (Quest For Infamy) but with your support, we're making THREE more... we love these games, and we're just excited to be a part of the whole scene.  We're in some amazing company here, as there are a lot of great people out there making adventure games now.  We're not only developers, we're fans too.  So, it's a privilege to share the stage with them and with you. 

I'm also thankful that I get to be friends with many of you - and you let me be my stupid, goofy self.  Sometimes just letting go of all the seriousness of the world that can weigh you down and going off and being goofy, funny, silly... it makes life more bearable.  I know we've found a bunch of folks that are amazing, serious professionals making their way out in life - but they also have that fun, goofy sensibility and a zest for life and I can't tell you how inspiring that is.  I don't think I, or the team, could make our games without your enthusiasm.  So, thank you. 

Thanks again to everyone for pledging, telling friends, and spreading the word about Infamous Quests and what we do.  We're very fortunate to be making these types of games, for people all across this globe.  I truly do appreciate you all, and I enjoy the times when we get to interact.  My best to you all in the coming year, and my best to my team - you guys ready to make some games??

A little more info on "Fortress of Fire"!
about 9 years ago – Fri, May 01, 2015 at 04:43:05 PM

We thought it was about time we shared a bit more information about Fortress of Fire, the second title in our Order of the Thorne anthology series. With a week to go before our Kickstarter campaign finishes, Fortress of Fire is getting close to being funded!

The Story

Sir Caradoc, a noble Knight of the Order of the Thorne, is summoned to the castle stronghold of the Order. The Grand Master of The Order, Aoife (pronounced ee-fa) had been hearing reports of disturbing happenings in the Land of Sunlight. Some months ago, she had sent a monk of the Order, Brother Eoin, to investigate the old monastery in the valley, but no contact had been made since he departed. The rumours of a darkness over the land and of a massive fortress appearing there overnight, were disturbing indeed. She decided more information was required and tasked Sir Caradoc with visiting the Land of Sunlight and investigating the occurrences. What has happened to the former monastery and what is happening in the land? What became of Brother Eoin?

The Land of Sunlight, once a beautiful, peaceful place is now a blighted land.
The Land of Sunlight, once a beautiful, peaceful place is now a blighted land.

Taking his trusty Squire Patrick with him, they set out across the realm for the Land of Sunlight. As they passed through the caves that mark the entrance to the Kingdom of Light, they stopped to look out over what was now a dark, desolate place with a massive fortress rising into the sky. Suddenly, they were best by a fierce and vicious enemy, and Sir Caradoc was captured while Patrick was rendered unconscious and fell down a gully. When he woke, he climbed to the top of the hill again - Caradoc was gone, but his sword remained.  Patrick picks up the word, and with resolve, sets out to rescue his master.

Find out what happens in The Order of the Thorne: Fortress of Fire!

Squire Kit

Unique to Fortress of Fire is Patrick’s Squire Kit. This kit contains the usual basic squiring equipment such as rope and flint, but also contains a number of herbs and liquids that can be mixed to create a wide variety of useful elixirs and potions. Sure to be useful as he attempts to free his Knight from capture! The use of the items at his disposable and his skills as Caradoc's squire will offer unique solutions to the puzzles and challenges that lie ahead!
