1 Week of Adam
Hey Everyone!
SOEDESCO launched Adam’s Venture: Origins last week. When we embarked on this Venture (pun intended) we wanted to publish a cool adventure game, for a very broad audience. The traditional adventure game has disappeared. Variety is the spice of life, and it is our hope that Adam’s Venture: Origins provides that variety. With a focus on puzzles, goofy banter and a story clearly inspired by old adventure books and comics.
But let’s trim the fat and skip past the lofty ambitions. At the moment there are a few things we are working on. We’ve received bug reports and other reports about technical issues. The devs are hard at work fixing your issues and once we have a good idea of what’s causing some of these issues and a general ETA on the fixes then we’ll let you know. If you have a bug to report, please include your crash report, which can be found in: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Adam's Venture Orgins\AV_Origins_Data\output_log.txt. Make sure to include you system specs as well, they are very helpful when we try to isolate(and solve) the problem.
More importantly we would like to thank all our players for playing the game, and special thank you for all the submitted gameplay footage and streams are also very much appreciated. We tried to make Adam’s Venture: Origins for a very broad audience by including lots of different languages. The amount of content we’ve seen around the internet proves that was the right call to make! So great work on your puzzle solving and grappling hook skills.
Because that’s the general point we want to make here. Thanks everyone for participating, playing and enjoying our latest game. We’ve heard your feedback about all kinds of stuff and we’ll take it to heart. We’ll keep you updated on the technical side of things, so let’s keep in touch.
Have a nice weekend!
Stoom, on behalf of the SOEDESCO team.
Adam's Venture: Origins, what's changed?
Hey Everyone,
So we've seen some questions pop up about the content of the game, and to what extent this 'remaster' changes things. So for that reason we thought it prudent to list all of that in one place for convenient future reference ; - )
So without further ado, let's dive into why we think that Adam's Venture: Origins is more than your average 'remaster'.
A small journey into the murky mist of time is required since that is where our story begins. Adam's Venture was first released into the world in the form of episodic adventure games, the first of which was released in 2009, which is by now 7 years ago.
Last year we (SOEDESCO) bundled the episodes into Adam's Venture: Chronicles. We also gave it to everyone who owned all the three episodes on Steam.
At that time we had already announced Adam's Venture: Origins, our new start for the franchise. We promised the fulfilment of a vision. That means a puzzle focused adventure game with a focus on brains and wit over violence and guns. We wanted to release a game that was also up to snuff on the technical side of things.
We are working with the original developer Vertigo Games, to make sure that the original tone and artistic vision was respected. In addition to that, Vertigo knows Adam and his story best, and had a good idea of which challenges we would encounter in producing a new Adam's Venture game.
All fine and dandy, but why don't you get down to the nitty gritty details? Let's do that, backing it up with some facts.
Was rebuilt in a totally new engine (Unity 5)
Has a replotted and in places rewritten storyline. From 3 separate episodes to 1 coherent game.
Features a new grappling hook mechanic, used in new puzzles and platform challenges
Has all new graphics, that means new character models, textures, animations, the whole shebang.
In addition to that some smaller changes had to be made due to the new platforms we had at our disposal. For instance some cut-scenes were also replaced with dynamic, player-triggered conversations, which meant we had to write and record new voice-acting.
Just to give you some visual reference here are some images we posted on our Facebook pages:
We hope this illustrates the points made above. For us Adam's Venture: Origins is a fresh start for the franchise. A new beginning, and we hope that people can now finally experience Adam's Venture in a way that is as close as possible to the original vision Vertigo had.
If you have any questions or are curious at the process behind making Adam's Venture: Origins please respond to this thread.
Thanks a lot, and we hope you enjoy your adventures with Adam.
Warm regards,
Stoom, on behalf of the SOEDESCO team
