Apprentice II: The Knight's Move

Wormsie · 07-22-2004, 10:32 PM

It's almost finished.

I'm more excited about this than about any game ever. (Maybe I will be excited about Luna and Langhorne Underground sokme day. But they are not almost finished, so not yet.)

1% of the music isn't finished? So, uhm every song is missing one note? Eh?

Never heard of it.

Until now of course.

Excellent news, better get the first one played before this is one is released. :-)

There's more to music than notes, you fool!

This game will surely be great. And I'd just like to note that I am personally responsible for this game not being called "Apprentice II: The Continuation"

99% music finished means that 99 of the game's 100 tracks are finished, and only one remains to be done. Simple...

g2-man · 07-24-2004, 08:41 AM

I'm ready for it now, having just played Apprentice. Whilst I had heard very good things about the game, I never realised what a hoot it would be. The only thing standing in the way of it being in my opinion worthy of commercial success, was its short length and some interface problems. Truly an amazingly well done game, I expect great things from The Knight's Move!

which is really impressive, considering the first game had only two tracks.

were they seriously gonna call it that? How'd you accomplish this amazing feat of saving grace?

Wormsie · 07-25-2004, 12:11 AM

Personally, remixor? Did you mail HEP and tell them that you disliked it? Because, you know, I was there too, at HEP forums, giving my vote for "The Knight's Move". As were many other fans.

Sheesh, people! You hadn't played Apprentice?! Good lord.

remixor · 07-25-2004, 08:48 AM

It was originally called "Apprentice II: The Continuation" and I told them "You know, that's not really a very good subtitle. It's clearly a continuation, since it's a sequel. Perhaps you should use something more descriptive" (or something to that effect). Then they said "You know, you're right. We didn't really consider that. Ok, we'll change it to something else".

Wormsie · 07-25-2004, 09:14 AM

Praised be remixor!!

But eventually the titles were voted on, so actually you are only responsible of it NOT being called "The Continuation". To be nitpicky.

Yes, which is exactly what I said.

Wormsie · 08-04-2004, 03:57 AM

Which is exactly what I misread.

P.S. Splat44 is a doppelganger.
