We are sad to learn about the passing of June Lockhart today at the age of 100. She was a joy to work with, and we are forever grateful for her performance as Margaret Leonard in 'Tesla Effect'.

We are saddened to hear about the passing of Richard Norton, aka. Big Jim Slade.

His portrayal of one of the most feared villains of the series also made his character one of the most loved in Tex Murphy. We're thankful for having had the opportunity to work with such an all-round amazing person.

Community Note:

We've been informed a scam is doing the rounds again where somebody claiming to represent Big Finish Games is hiring. Big Finish Games is not recruiting any positions. Please ignore any individuals or companies claiming to be recruiting as, or on behalf of, Big Finish Games.

Sounds like the perfect time to fix that!

A screenshot from the DOS FMV adventure game Under A Killing Mood. The main screen shows a fancy hallway with paintings hanging. The closest painting to the player shows some people feeding waterfowl by waterside. Tex Murphy, the game's protagonist, comments on the painting by saying "Looks like some kind of goose party."

Looks like some kind of goose party.

Update 84: Can you believe it's almost ten years since we released Tesla Effect!? · Tex Murphy - Project Fedora Hello, Tex Murphy bakers and supporters!Even though we have moved away from using Kickstarter as our primary form of communication to stay engaged with the community, we just had to come back because we are coming up on celebrating TEN years since Tesla Effect was officially released! A lot has happened in adventure games over the past decade, but we wanted to share the current state of things...Tune in to WTEXFor those who missed it on social media, season two of the Tex Murphy radio theater was released recently. It’s June, 2043 – several weeks after Tex wrapped up the Pandora Directive case. You’ll hear what happened in the days before Tex and Chelsee’s dinner date, including a new case that showed up at Tex’s door, leading him (and Chelsee) on a hunt for a rare Enigma Machine document that may be a map to lost Romanov treasure and a secret that’s been buried for 150 years.To catch up on the new episodes, you can watch our YouTube Playlist.Also on YouTube, you can listen to the original season of the Tex Murphy Radio theater (recorded back in 2001)! From an all-new studio comes The Last Ark Mat Van Rhoon, who joined the Tex Murphy crew in 2013 as one of the creative forces behind Tesla Effect, announced today that he has finally gone out on his own and opened a new game studio, Terabbit Studios. Along with the official announcement, the studio has announced a new game based on an entirely new IP. The new game, The Last Ark, is a narrative thriller that will deliver a new twist on consequential, choice-driven narrative gameplay. So far the game features voice and acting talent from popular franchises like: Death Stranding 2: On The Beach, Persona 3 Reload, Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, System Shock, GhostRunner II, The 7th Guest VR, and our very own Tex Murphy series! From the studio’s website:In the not-too-distant future, a rogue star has flown through our solar system. Its immense gravity has disrupted the orbital signatures of several planets, including Earth. Ejected from our solar system, the Earth is rapidly descending into a cold, dark, and uninhabitable orphan planet.To try to escape the disaster, humanity builds nine arks to safely evacuate 100,000 citizens into space, where they hope to begin a journey to find a new and habitable home. The rest of Earth’s population will perish.These arks are managed by you… the most sophisticated artificial intelligence ever created. With near-unlimited control over the arks, humanity’s future is in your hands.That was their last mistake…Check out the game’s official announcement/teaser trailer on YouTube: Adventure Game Hotspot has written a fantastic write-up on the new studio and upcoming title, so be sure to check it out! For more information about the game and Mat’s studio, visit: https://terabbitstudios.comTo follow the Studio on Social Media and receive updates on the studio and game progress, find them on your platform of choice: BlueSky, YouTube, Twitter/X, Facebook, or Instagram.Tex Murphy and the Romanov EnigmaAaron Conners has been hard at work putting the finishing touches on his new novel in the Tex Murphy universe titled ‘Tex Murphy and the Romanov Enigma.’ The new book has a release date of May 1st, 2024!From Aaron:The ridiculously long-awaited Tex Murphy and the Romanov Enigma takes place in 2043, just after the events of The Pandora Directive. When Chelsee brings Tex a new case, it begins a whole new adventure: a search for a lost Romanov treasure, decoding old Enigma Machine messages, and crossing paths with characters from both Tex’s past and future.Aaron is in the process of revamping his websiteand blog in time for the new book, so please be sure to stay tuned for a forthcoming update closer to the book’s release!The Pandora Directive Anniversary/RemasterAnother piece of news that many of you who follow us on social media may know is the Pandora Directive remaster project. Over the past few years, a small team consisting of Mat Van Rhoon, Doug Vandegrift, Adrian Carr, and Aaron Conners had been revamping and remastering The Pandora Directive’s source content for a planned remaster.It’s been a very involved and painstaking process over the past few years, and you can read up on it on Big Finish Games’ website here: https://bigfinishgames.com/news/ as well as check out all the progress videos Mat has posted to the Big Finish Games YouTube (playlist).Some of you may be wondering about the status of that project, and this response comes from the team who has thus far dedicated their spare hours to get the project to where it is today…Until now, the team had been dedicated to remastering the full motion video from the original tapes (into 4K), cutting all-new edits of the cinematic sequences, redesigning the game environments, remastering the sound and music, and modernizing the game design. For the most part, those tasks have now been conquered, and the logical next step would be to get the band back together again to march the project towards the finish line. However, that will require more than a part-time, passion project level of dedication. The entire team will need to be back on board 100%. Anything else would disrespect both the project’s contributors and critical stakeholders. Not everybody is available or willing to commit to this right now. However, many of us who still want to complete this project will remain on standby until the entire team is ready to engage and support it together. But, for now, it remains on-hold.Stay up-to-date on social mediaTo stay up to date on social media please follow us on Twitter, Facebook, or via our Website.And with that, all that’s left to say is: Thank you so much for being such wonderful supporters over the years. We still can’t believe it has been TEN years since we successfully launched Tesla Effect after an amazingly successful Kickstarter campaign. We couldn’t have done it without you!

Can you believe it's been almost 10 yrs since Tesla Effect was released? Here's the latest news in the adventure world, including Aaron Conners' new book, a new studio & game from @matvanrhoon.bsky.social (@terabbitstudios.bsky.social), and the status of the Pandora remaster.
