Top 5 most anticipated amature games
 
Okay, we've had a chance to see which indi games are already getting the love, so lets get a glimpse of what amatuer games you are most looking forward to. Here is my list (in no particular order)

Bad Timing
Rise of the Hidden Sun
Al Emo & the Lost Duchmans Mine
The Find
Zak McKracken & the Alien Rockstars (I'm not usually into fan games, but I have a weak spot for Zak)

1.) Rise of the Hidden Sun
2.) Star Wars Shadows of the Empire
3.) Al Emmo & The Lost Dutchman's Mine
4.) The Find
5.) Indiana Jones and the Fountain of Youth

Rise of the Hidden Sun (because I absolutely LOVE the graphics and interface. Reminds me of "The Dig" a bit.)

Bad Timing (A unique looking game with a "Day of the Tentacle" feel that I just adore looking at.)

King's Quest IX (all their hard work really shows!!)

Al Emmo and the Lost Dutchman's Mine ;)

Project Joe (crossing fingers and hopes it comes out!)

Quest for Glory 2 VGA! (by far the most exciting release of ALL!)

Isak 07-19-2005 08:22 AM

In order:

1. Broken Sword 2.5
2. Valis
3. The Amulet of Monkey Island (oh please Lucasarts do not close down this game)
4. Rise of the Hidden Sun
5. Indiana Jones and the Fountain of Youth

And don't forget "Zak McKracken - Between Time And Space" - this one looks like being seriously good (by amateur standards at least). It should be ready by the end of this year, and it looks like having high production values, and should be too big to fit onto one CD. It appears that like these guys really know what they're doing.

Number 2 for me would have to be Zak McKracken & the Alien Rockstars - maybe one day it will finally be finished. It's only been in production for nine years, so it's still early days.

Number 3? The game that takes place on a cruise chip.

Number 4 for me, because I have a Zak fan site, would have to be Zak McKracken and the Mushroom kingdom. I don't know if the guy is still making it, but it sounds interesting.

And 5 - Indy and the Fountain of youth.

BerserkerTails 07-19-2005 09:59 AM

1) King's Quest IX (I cannot wait until winter)
2) Quest for Glory 2 VGA (This was always my favorite QfG game)
3) Bestowers of Eternity (Even though I'm on the team, I can't wait to play it, haha)
4) Indy and the Fountain of Youth (Looks amazing, in my opinion)
5) Pleurghburg: Asylum (I know it's about 99% canceled, but I've still got hope)

very nice graphics, very "curse of Monkey Island".

GameMaster 07-19-2005 12:03 PM

Since I can't think of five games I'm anticipating, I'll just name three.

1. Rise of the Hidden Sun (visually great and reminds me of Indiana Jones)
2. Quest for Glory 2 VGA (I just love the universe, where QfG games take place, so the reemake is on my list)
3. Bad Timing (has that good, old LucasArts feel)

bush_monkey 07-19-2005 12:14 PM

1. Ben Jordan 5
2. Hero Theorem
3. The Majestic Conspiracy
4. Buccaneer II
5. Rise of the hidden sun

and I also can't wait till I've finished making Valis :p

UPtimist 07-20-2005 12:50 AM

Quite many actually... 5 in no particular order:
-The rest Ben Jordans (so yes, that's already 5...)
-Rise of the Hidden Sun
-Al Emmo and the Lost Dutchman's Mine
-The Majestic Conspiracy
-Indiana Jones and the Fountain of Youth

Yes, I'm also anticipating others almost as much, like The Amulet of Monkey Island, Bestowers of Eternity, Star Wars, Shadows of the Empire...

SamandMax 07-20-2005 05:43 PM

I'm hoping Larry Vales 3 somehow rises from the ashes and is released.

But that's just a dream.

Ninth 07-21-2005 12:30 AM

1 - Indi and the Fountain of Youth
2 - Rise of the Hidden Sun

There's a few more that interest me (Al Emo, QFG2, Bad Timing, KQ9...), but these two look really really good.

Hammerite 07-30-2005 12:19 AM

In no order whatsoever.

Shadowplay
Stranger At Midnight
Indiana Jones And The FOuntain of Youth
Ben Jordan: Case 5 (there's a demo!!)
Da New Guys: Day Of The Jackass
Quest For Infamy

Adventurous One 08-03-2005 09:24 AM

In no order, KQIX, QFGII VGA, KQIII VGA, Quest for Infamy, and Rise of the Hidden Sun. I'll throw SQ7 in there too, but it's anyone's guess as to when they'll be done.

ozzie 08-03-2005 03:11 PM

I name overall freeware games I'm anticipating, not only adventures.

Nathan's Second Chance

Velella

Duzz Quest II

Age Of The Beast

Domnestic Conspiracy

Hero Theorem

Ignac 2 (could someone lend me a link, please? ;))

And last but not least:
The Apartment :9 (no, really!!)


Don't know an independent game I should looking forward to, maybe Bad Timing.
