This is an unusual amount of praise...
Must... resist... being... contrary... and... play.. game... before... criticising!  ;)

This isn't really a demo, but check out:

http://www.aedmark.c...d/animation.exe

To see the rotoscoped animation test, as well as a background from the game.

The file you are downloading is an illustrated campaign to try and get CJ, the maker of the AGS engine, to increase the animation frame limit.

On the left you'll see the character animated at 24 fps, and on the right you'll see him animated at 12 fps. We're trying to get him to up it so we can go with 24 fps animations.

Otherwise, there is NO GAME here, just an animation comparison superimposed over a background from Prodigal 2. Still, you can see what we're workin' on...Lemme know what you think of the background, and the animation style, too! Comments and constructive criticism are always welcome!

Thanks,
Ben

Too much praised, seems like I must dl this one asap (after finishing my Panzer General campaign)! :shrug:

Thanks all for your kind words!

Also note, I have begun working on Prodigal 2. While I haven't gotten a publisher yet, I hope to finish act one and then shop it around.

Tons and tons and tons to do yet, but it is in active production! High res 640x400x32, live actors (rotoscoped,) and no more compression on sound and video! All good things! :shrug: Plus find out what the heck it all meant! Swinging swords! Hot Kissin' action! It's all there!

Keep an eye on the Prodigal homepage for updates as they become available.

Laters,
Ben

Oooooo... nice.

Well written, good difficulty (only had to take a quick look at the walkthrough once for the 2 order keys), good visuals, VERY good twist at the end.

spoiler said:

Although Mike did get a tad obvious with "Just take my hand",  pretty much guessed that they would wind up trading places at that moment

But aside from that very nicely done. I seem to have a talent for finding only the really good Freeware Adventure games ;)  (Played Lost in the Nightmare, Trilby series & this).

Would definitely like to see a Prodigal 2 some day. :P

An unusual and extremely unpleasing end.

Really feels like you did the whole thing for nothing.

Sequel would be nice, though. Probably there's something behind "it".

I think I've run into a bug.  In Act 2, I'm unable to pick up the recipie book from the sleeping quarters.  I can look at it and it shows up as a hotspot in the bar, but no amount of clicking on the book has produced any result.  No error message, nothing.

Seeing as I need the recipie to continue the game, I'm dead in the water.

I'm running Prodigal v. 1.1.
