Nepenthe Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Heh, looks like another project I'll have to back. Have quite a few good memories of Shadowgate. You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanschu Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I love the original, but the innate difficulty of a remake is that I hesitate to pick up something (especially a puzzle game) that I've already played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giantenemycrab Posted October 27, 2012 Author Share Posted October 27, 2012 Well it isn't the same game It is the shadowgate world but a whole new adventure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanschu Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 This is a plus! Although, is the world really that relevant? Haha. I remember the guys that made Shadowgate made a variety of different settings, one of my favourites being Deja Vu! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably if this KS goes well they could recreate those as well! Who knows maybe even a stretch goal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giantenemycrab Posted October 30, 2012 Author Share Posted October 30, 2012 (edited) they posted an update. If we get 1000 likes on Facebook they will add some addtional content: http://www.kickstart...te/posts/338043 “Seek Ye the Black Axe! Update #2 · Oct. 29, 2012 · 11 comments We thought we would do a fun update before Hurricane Sandy knocks on our front door… The Black Axe Update! What was the Black Axe, you say? Well, in the earliest release of Shadowgate, a mysterious arrow shot across the Grand Hallway and wedged itself into the wall. A message scrawled on an attached scroll read, “Seek Ye the Black Axe.” This puzzle never made it into the final game as there just wasn’t enough room on the floppy. Was it a weapon of untold power for good or an evil creation of the damned? How can you find out? We’re glad you asked! If we get at least 1000 likes on the Zojoi Facebook page, we will ensure that this unreleased quest/puzzle makes it into the new game!” Edited October 30, 2012 by Giantenemycrab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humanoid Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Though I'm sure it'll meet the funding goal, a pre-goal stretch target is a bit of an oddity. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giantenemycrab Posted October 31, 2012 Author Share Posted October 31, 2012 We are almost 50% in less than a week. Wish hurricane Sandy hadn't knocked out the east coast....prolly would have more updates from Zojoi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giantenemycrab Posted November 1, 2012 Author Share Posted November 1, 2012 Update today for new digital rewards: We thought rather than creating a new digital tier, we would add onto one. Our $30 tier now has two new rewards in it. The first is a 2014 digital wallpaper calendar called "The World of Shadowgate"- delivered in a boat load of resolutions. This 14 month calendar (going back to November of 2013) will feature the many fantastic locations outside the castle - all illustrated by Chris Cold. (Note: We will also offer each image without the calendar on it for convenience.) Second, we are offering you a digital version of the cloth MAP in many resolutions as well! This map will feature the world of Shadowgate as well, albeit from a birds-eye view Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giantenemycrab Posted November 8, 2012 Author Share Posted November 8, 2012 We hit 50% in a flash but now were barely making any progress. We need to get another $50k before the end so please consider pledging ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azure79 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I vaguely remember a NES game that had a similar style to this. I remember playing through it with a friend every Friday after school. We had pizza and puzzled our way through the game. I remember there was a Sphinx with riddles. Those were good times. I can't remember if it was Shadowgate though?

Nepenthe Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Got funded, btw. Too bad the SG shirt is in a tier that's way too high for me otherwise. You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheeseGraterSuicide Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Got funded, btw. Too bad the SG shirt is in a tier that's way too high for me otherwise. Nah man, they've made the shirts one of their addons now. You only need a base pledge of $10 or more for them. They've put all the addon stuff on the main page of the KS, just scroll down a bit. And, if you miss out (there's only 10 hours left right now), you can still use paypal on their website later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, happy for them. And myself, to a rather large degree, I have fond memories of that game. You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that?
