Space Quest II remade, rereleased for free [Joystiq]

[DP ServBot]

Perhaps "remade" isn't the best word to describe what the team at Infamous Adventures has done to Sierra's 1987 classic Space Quest II: Vohaul's Revenge. "Lovingly rebuilt," perhaps, or "delicately hand-milled," if such a term can be considered applicable in a programming sense. (We've decided it can.)

Infamous Adventures' reproduction features "hand-drawn backgrounds, hand animated characters, a full voice pack featuring over 4,000 recorded lines and a whole lot of extras," according to the group's official website. We don't know what's more touching, the fact that a small group of people completely rejiggered a classic out of love for the original, or the fact that the fruits of their labor can be downloaded for free.

Watch those system requirements though, the PC version requires a whole meg of RAM. Space Quest II remade, rereleased for free originally appeared on Joystiq on Sat, 31 Dec 2011 21:30:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

These teams don't get nearly the credit they deserve. These remakes take so long to make and the teams that make them put so much heart and effort into them. Everyone should play this.

Hell yes I am hitting up the download.

Sierra adventure games are the pride and joy of my PC game collection, and it makes me a happy mummy that people are keeping the good things in life alive.
