    Thanks so much! I appreciate it. Yes I've finished around 90% of the project, with just a few more scenes and some audio to re-do (because s

  • I want to make it somewhat more complex than just that. I really want players to feel immersed, and really enjoy going through this adventure, just like how they feel with the original series by Telltale.

    This is why I'm considering putting it up for download and letting people download the game and playing it themselves, since the file size may be too big.

  • Sure thing but HarjKS said (if I'm not mistaken) that he'll add some music to certain scenes to create specific atmosphere for the current situation. If I remember correctly, of course.

  • Yes, I did say that and I stand by it. This is mostly why it takes so long to make an episode, because I have to add sound effects with music and make them somehow fit with the scene, which is quite time consuming but fun at the same time and it's worth it :)

  • In any case I'm happy that I'll be able to play before I'll go on my vacation. :)

  • I loved the demo, good job! I've never used that site before, is there anyway I can get an email notification when the episodes are updated?

  • Thank you, and sorry I don't believe there is. However I will update the thread when the episode is officially released! :)

    Hey man, I loved your story and just wanted to ask how good do you think mine is? :) <3 http://www.telltalegames.com/community/discussion/78045/the-walking-dead-forum-game-season-1-ep1-ch3-is-out

    Thank you

  • Thank you. I like your story, however you should try making sentences shorter since some of them seem to drag on for a bit. As well as this, some of the chapters are somewhat short as well, and some descriptions could be improved. Other than that, it's quite intriguing and the characters are interesting.

    Overall, great job! I enjoyed it. :D

    Also TIP: When characters speak say it like this.

    "Hello," said John.

    "Hey," replied Laura.

    Words such as 'said' and 'replied' do not have their first letters capitalized. But other than that, it's fine.

    Telltale Staff 1: We have a problem

    Telltale Staff 2: What problem? We almost finished with episode 5, we have two games on the way and season 3 announce. What could possible be a problem here?

    Telltale Staff 1: There is a text-based game which...

    Telltale Staff 2: Text-based?! faking laugh

    Telltale Staff 1: But it's creator never used a word "soon"

    Telltale Staff 3: What?! That's impossible!

    Telltale Staff 2: So... when this... game is coming?

    Telltale Staff 1: .... very very very very soon?

    Telltale Staff 2 & 3: facepalm

  • Ahaha! To be honest if anyone from Telltale ever noticed this project, I'd probably die from excitement.

    One Day

    EDIT : Seems fate is against me. Since I'm an idiot, a few of the pages which contained the results and showed an actual choice has gone "missing". So there will be a slight "cut" there. I'm really sorry guys, I should have been more careful. This doesn't affect the game in a major way however there's no way I can reclaim all those missing pages, dialogue, and etc.

    This also means some of the sound is useless, which is extremely saddening. But I guess this has to be it. Once again sorry guys I'll try and prevent this from ever happening in the future.

    This is unfortunate that it happened but I guess there is nothing you can do. It's best to be thankful that you didn't lost any major thing because you would be forced to delay release of the episode.

    It is unfortunate but I'm sure I can at least give you guys something. So here's one final teaser. May I also just say this is more of an "audio teaser". So you'll have to "hear" the trailer. I did this, so you don't get too much information on the next episode, but you may guess and such. Please note that not all of the sounds will be used, some hint to other episodes but this is just to give an idea of some events that could happen based on your choices.

    You can listen to and/or download the file here: TEASER

    If you cannot hear the audio online, I would recommend you download it.

    NOTICE: The file size for the episode is too big, at around 500 MB (including all sound fx and music)I believe, for the website to handle it. So I'm going to try and find a way around it, which will mean there will be a delay with the episode. I'm going to message someone who is on the website, to see if we can sort this issue. I have no idea how long this will take, hopefully a few hours. If it takes far too long (such as going overboard to the 3rd of August) then I will simply upload the episode with all the music and sound effects, for you guys to download. I apologize for this delay.

  • awesome work keep it up

  • Thank you! :)

  • Just tried the demo! This seems like it's going to be an absolutely amazing game. The effort that you've put into this is phenomenal. Think what you're doing is great and you should keep up the great work man.

  • Thanks so much! Episode One will be coming out soon! :D

  • ANOTHER NOTICE: Things just seem to get better and better. I received a reply from what I'm guessing is the administrator of the site. I was told the file size is too big, mostly due to music being in '.wav' format rather than '.mp3' format. That also the music "looks copyrighted" and thus I will not be able to upload the game. So the only way now is to go back, have to change all the music to '.mp3' files, reapply them to each scene and then email telltale, get their permission to use their music for this project and then hope the file size is small enough for it to be uploaded. Yeah, this delay may be a tad longer and I am really sorry I'm trying everything I can to get this first episode out to you guys.

  • Don't worry about it. As long as you keep updating us i have nothing to complain about. ;)
