Future Unfolding #23

We worked on Future Unfolding for over 4 years now. As of today the game is content-complete, which is a huge milestone for us. Content-complete is important, because it gives you a hard deadline where you actually have to say: "Ok, this is everything that's going to be in the game". Even if you have another hundred items on your nice-to-have list.

If the game is complete, what's next? Testing and bug-fixing. Future Unfolding has a procedural aspect to it that requires a lot of testing to make sure you can't get stuck in a certain configuration of the world.

We're looking for people who can help us test the game and find all those obscure bugs that are hiding in the woods. We'll send out test builds on an ongoing basis during the next few weeks to a limited number of people. If you'd like to be considered as a beta tester, please fill out this form.

Speaking of content-complete, there's a great blog post about it on the Thimbleweed Park development blog. If that doesn't ring a bell – TP is the new point & click adventure made by Ron Gilbert and Gary Winnick, the creators of Maniac Mansion, and Mark Ferrari, the background artist on Loom and Secret of Monkey Island. If you like Lucasfilm Games, Twin Peaks and/or The X-Files, keep an eye out on this one!

Happy holidays!
