Unofficial Tex Murphy

I'm tired and jet-lagged, but I'm still happy.

I can hardly wait to watch the video tomorrow.

Yes, I printed off a bunch of Tex Bux that I made.

This cat has such attitude. He looks like he could tell stories about the war.

the cat has your money. Number of rat's asses given: ZERO

I really like that, any chance you'd part with some?

I wouldn't like that at all! I intend to avoid the hint system at all costs. I don't want to miss out on the Big PI in Sky!

I don't like the hint idea, and think it would just eat up the budget, because JEJ is not cheap. I would reuse the death scenes from UAKM since the context on some of them would fit in some Fedora deaths. Like for instance "Don't get caught" After that have JEJ voice over the PI rule deaths UAKM didn't cover and put it over UAKM's video. You don't need visuals when it's just a shadow.

Edit: Of course that's assuming something like that is in the cards.

Haha. Its for my eyes only. I'll be going "Big PI in the Sky save me from this slider puzzle!!" Just kidding. In dreamland he'd be doing BOTH the death sequences and the hint system. Also pigs will fly.

Though I should note I do try at least, got lots of doodles and stuff from Black Dahlia with all those dang symbol puzzles... But I do like Aaron/Chris philosophy of letting people move on in the story if a puzzle gets to a un-fun point for some.

No worries, it was just a joke for the Kickstarter comments when people were jokily discussing a James Earl Jones sim to go with the golf sim in dream land I agree the hint system would be thousands and thousands of lines so not feasible. Even if it wasn't James Earl Jones, it'd be costly.

Edit: Of course that's assuming something like that is in the cards.

If you mean approaching James Earl Jones to do stuff then yeah it is on the cards, though obviously not a hologram hint system They said "reprising his role" and of course his previous role was in the death sequences.

One more familiar facet that could make its way into Project Fedora is the voice of James Earl Jones as The Big PI in the Sky – but only if the Kickstarter raises 30 percent more than its goal, which places the bar at $585,000. If that happens, Jones and Conners will approach James Earl Jones about reprising his role. "We'd love to have him," Jones says.

With the extra funding we got way past 585,000 of the goal hopefully this will be a reality but of course will depend on him saying Yes. They should get his son to approach him again
