@taby1uk, We are very far in the beta testing process for episode 1 but if you want to beta test the next episode we'll have an other TA open submission in the future. Thanks for your interest!
Will you ever need beta testers for the Wii U? I have a Wii U and play it quite a lot (as in an average of 100 hours a month for the last year). I wouldn't mind beta testing your game on it if that's possible. I also have an Android phone, but I don't play games on it since battery life is precious and games kill said life! D: If you need beta testers for the Wii U version of the game in the future, please let me know!
We are pleased to announce that James Sunderland from Silent Hill 2 (well the man behind that character, Guy Cihi), joined our rangs for a main role in upcoming episodes of Forgotten Memories (now in pre-production). There's a live podcast by Matt and Pat (from youtubes best friends channel) they are making a coverage and interviewing Guy Cihi on his upcoming role in the series. I'll post the podcast as soon as it's available. PS: Final launch trailer is finished, should be live in the coming days.
awesome... i have been waiting for this one. but take your time to have it done right. i rather have to wait than to play something that feel rush and incomplete
You must be new here when you say "take your time" Welcome to the forums! This is the last thread you should be telling anyone to take their time.
mmm yes new and old. I have been reading for a long time but never really want to or make any post. Only as of late I decided to have more participation and then I created an account to actually start posting. Thanks for the welcome thou, but honestly I dont quite get it if I did say anything wrong? Please correct me if I do as it confuse me a little here. Not sure if what I said has anything wrong in it.
Don't worry, people are just bitter that the games been in development for this long. I'm sure it'll be out soon enough.
You didn't say anything wrong, It was just a sarcastic but somewhat realistic joke. I'm far from bitter, but let me ask you this.. if this was your paycheck how would you feel? Yes I'm aware this is just an iphone game, and yes I am aware that the game is coming along nice and looks amazing and will possibly be the best release ever on any handheld platform. I am also aware that the team developing this great game is small. I'm just tired of seeing people saying "It will be out soon" beta testers saying it should be out soon, developers (in the past) saying it will be out soon and yet another year goes by.. I almost feel like every time they are about to release it, the new iphone with better graphics or better anything comes and the developer decides he wants to tweak it a little more for next gen iphones delaying the release (this is how I feel) I just hope that with each episode going to be released in the future does not take as long as the first one regardless that they have stated that it's in the works already. And for Tato, I apologize if this has been answered already earlier, but will your next episodes be released as an in app purchase or will we have to download a completely new app? I am really hoping it will be similar to how telltale does their games. (in app purchase)
@Nekcik, In practice, the first episode only took a year to make (probably less). The problem was the engine and other technical stuff which where lacking behind production. We where able to produce tons of further episodes assets while the whole FOG engine was finished. We end up now with an engine that will help us produce games faster, where designers only needs few clicks away to create objectives and interactions, instead of days. Upcoming episodes and games will be produced even faster. Before we decided to cut the game into episodes, we've run into budgets, technical and other issues any game goes through. This is normal in the gaming industry more than any other medium and I believe gamers starts to get used to it. Yes, the game release was pushed a number of times for the same reasons I just named but frankly, this is nothing new, everyone here is aware of. And no, we are not following TellTale formula, each of our episodes is sold as a self-contained game within the same universe of about 4-5 hours of gameplay time (plus all the extra re-playabilities and unlockables). Is not a F2P and does not contain IAP (not that i have anything against it). Warm regards,
Here's the podcast with our fellow Guy Cihi and Super Best Friends (starts at 1h34 end up around 2h15): http://hwcdn.libsyn.com/p/1/6/c/16cd168b4941b604/SBFC081.mp3?c_id=8418536&expiration=1424776568&hwt=510e53abccf9e483614ea7f244ff8dd3 Enjoy!
Alright but honestly I wasn't trying to be sarcastic nor am I making a "realistic" joke. Believe it or not but I am being rather frank about how I feel. Thou I am hype about the game when I first saw it. As much as I would want to get on hand asap. But I seriously rather the dev take their time to make the game more polish than to rush things out just to deliver it to our hand with a bunch of issues or a complete mess especially if it is something that I really look forward to. Because to be honest it's not like there ain't other games out there to fill the gap. Nonetheless peace on the matter, am not here for an argument of any sort. Cheers...
This is seriously coming out soon? When will we know the release date (sorry for asking this forbidden question ), will we know in the next week or so?
