Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers - Clock puzzle
It's been one year since I played Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers for the first time with my best friend @darkcrowind.bsky.social.
I must admit I love the clock puzzle. 🕰
As a German native speaker I also like how the puzzle is created for non-German speakers.

Here's some work on the Shuttle bay for that latest Star Trek shot - it'll be very visible when the Workbees come in to land. Making good progress, trying to not get lost in details we'll never see. :P

This is one of my favorite tracks from the game. This vibe is so good it's going in my car's playlist.
I'm also a huge fan of Heart of the Idol. The Error 47 cover is so much like Unreal Tournament and it fits so well!
Attention retro coders and PC weirdos (affectionate):
There's a CGA game jam going on at itchio, hosted by my friend theLobdegg, until the end of February! It's not competitive (just fun!) and all CGA compatible projects are welcome!

You may not even know this, but if you have a copy of our Gabriel Knight record "Synths of the Fathers," the cover and inside paintings were done by George Avdoulos, who designed the first game and worked on level design for this sequel.

The Steam release of the classic Half-Life mod Zombie Panic! is coming closer and they have shared some dev progress done and a F.A.Q about it.
The mod is set to release on March 10 of this year!
It's the weekend so maybe you're in the mood for a movie night? In that case, how about a 4 hour "movie edit" of Black Dahlia, the 1998 FMV adventure game by Take 2 that's truly un-fucking-believable? Available now on my Patreon for free: www.patreon.com/post...

Between 2005 and 2010, I created my first small fan adventure games for Maniac Mansion Mania using AGS.
That's where I learned the basics of adventure game development.
Today, I focus on creating my own characters and worlds.

The first of two space battle scenes illustrated for the Black Knight episode.
It was a nice chance to revisit the work I did on the Baron and Concordats from the Warhammer episode.

Incidentally, you're free to use this as background music in your videos, streams, podcasts, etc. All I ask in return is a link in the description. 👍
(The album is free to download on Bandcamp.)
This is fantastic! We tried doing a metal cover of this in @error47.bsky.social and let me tell you, this is NOT an easy song to play!

I personally despise work meetings. Worst part of office life for me. So, I empathize with Mr. Greenburg here.
I think the center poster reads "Amaris in Love."

Martian Memorandum, the second Tex Murphy game, is now supported by ScummVM. Which presumably means Countdown and Amazon are also supported, since they use the same engine. Now imagine a day when the full Tex Murphy series is supported. A boy can dream.

Comparison of the elevator between the German and the US English translation
Left: original elevator panel from my AGS port of Escape from the Retirement Home.
Right: The panel for the US English translation.
In Europe, the 1st floor is the ground floor (Erdgeschoss in Germany).
In the US, the number 1 is often written like an I.

Looks awesome dude!
I bet you could convert an old van into one of these babies
Flucht aus dem Altersheim
Alright, I wrote every German dialogue line of this game down in an Excel sheet. There are almost 200 dialogues.
Next, I'll proofread the lines again and start translating them into English.
I can’t wait until the AGS port of this game is finally done! 🙌
