Default Apprentice 2 Trailer

If you still haven't seen the trailer of the sequel to the Award Winning(tm) Adventure Game "Apprentice", go here: http://herculeaneffort.adventuredeve.../app2.html#top

Pretty promising, don'tcha think?

Promising. Agreed.

I thought the graphics portraying the town and the people running around were a bit...um...overly-pixelated. But once we reached Pib's home, the excellence began

I really love Apprentice, although it is a bit short. I'm getting really excited about part 2 because we get to see more of Pib and his interesting surroundings.

Where did you see that? All I've seen mentioned is that fact that its the next chapter in the Apprentice adventure game. Personally, I'd love to see 5 or so releases, so we'd get a full sized game when all the chapters are strung together, but maybe that's hoping for too much.

Editted to add:
Darn, you're right it is a trilogy. Still, maybe once they get into Part 3, they'll find the need to extend it for at least one more chapter. Maybe two?

I can dream, can't I?

Well, if it helps, Apprentice 2 is going to be significantly longer than the first game.

Kode: Well, the resolution is 320*240 and the characters are far a way - ie. you can only use fewer pixels for drawing them, so therefore it's not surprising that it looks pixelated.

BTW, did you notice: first the soldiers chased the people - then the people chaced the soldiers! LOL! Well made, altogether.

Apprentice 2 also seems to have a more orchestral soundtrack, instead of the medieval-hippie-thingy of Apprentice 1. (Hippie because they used an electric bass quitar. )

Trailler is quite interesting.

I hope the game will be done in due time.
