I take it this game would not get a physical release? Download only? Would love to see Tex on the Xbox, not enough adventure games on there, can only think of Grey Matter on there which I loved - I wish they made a 2nd to that!

Actually the creator of Gray Matter had a Kickstarter earlier, which you might want to have a look at: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1005365109/jane-jensens-pinkerton-road-2012-2013-csg/?ref=kicktraq

It’s over now, though. She got what she needed to make a new adventure, even if it isn’t Gray Matter 2 (yet).

Anyway, you’re right that when you pledge 100 dollars you get the stuff for that “tier” and the stuff for the other tiers under it. I think the only exception to this is the digital $135 tier, which is a special edition thingie.

Also, if you pledged $100 and add $20 if you’re outside of the US ($120, then), you _will_ get a boxed copy. It’ll probably be a nice collectible in a few years. Smile

(we don’t know yet if there will be a proper retail release of a boxed copy. Some successful Kickstarter projects have gotten publisher deals, so maybe. I don’t think it’s in the current plan, though.)

I just pledged the $100 - did not see about the extra - is this just for international shipping costs and they will contact me at a later time?

I’m cool with that.

I was going just to pledge $5, but I managed to get hold of the other Tex Murphy games at carboot sales and on ebay - so I feel this is my way of giving a little back.

Hope they reach the goal.

if your rewards are to be shipped & you are international you add the $15 or $20 to the pledge amount. If you are doing only digital download its just the $100.00
see below
Exclusive Boxed Collectors Edition of “Project Fedora” * Your name featured in the “Special Thanks!” section of the credits. * Special Edition “Project Fedora” Soundtrack on CD included. * NEW “Music of Tex Murphy” CD featuring live musicians playing classic Tex Murphy tunes! * Previous Reward Tiers included. * Add $15 for international Shipments.

Very easily and at any time before the deadline Smile Just go to the Kickstarter page and click the blue “Manage my Pledge” button just above the Reward Tiers list.

Also regarding international shipping someone got this answer:

Thanks for your message! We’re glad you’ve enjoyed our previous games! I’ve just spoken with our shipping manager, and we are planning on shipping the rewards as gifts! We’re glad you’re excited, and we can assure you, we’re as excited to make “Project Fedora” as you are to play it!

Thanks Bruno

That is a fantastic video interview with Chris Jones. It has made me even more excited about a new Tex game and I think because of all the info Chris gave about Project Fedora I am going to increase my donation. Thanks for the link.

The latest update brings back the actor Bill Bradshaw who played the conspiracy enthusiast from Pandora Directive to voice support for the project (in character), even if you havent played that game check it out for a fun character and a great actor!

We’ve been told there will be more videos with past actors voicing their support and endorsement of the project, such as Michael York, Barry Corbin, and Richard Norton, so stay tuned!

Just a side note:

I think Chris Jones has aged well and I feel all giggly looking at his interviews and Tex moments.
