Hey everyone!
I thought I would write a message to let you know what to expect from johnnybdesign in 2008:
- As you all know, I've been working on
Agent Scarecrow (Chapter 2 & 3 ---
http://johnnybdesign.com/scarecrow.html) for quite some time now. This is an ambitious project since there are a lot of cinematics in the game. I hope to release both chapters simultaneously very soon (early 2008)

- The little poll that we have conducted in the forums tells me that you want more
Jack French/detective games. Since then, I had some time to meditate on the topic and I came up with a good idea...

That's great cuz I have some artwork left from several scenes that were cut and I'll be able to use them... stay tuned!
- My initial intentions with the Jack French series was to learn more about webgaming and game design. With the experience gained, I would now like to create
a full-length adventure game. Something really HUGE. With a bigger inventory, a complex storyline, more mesmerizing characters and challenging puzzles. I gave an hint in the third episode of Jack French (
http://johnnybdesign.com/jfrench3.html)... which I thought was clever but it totally went unnoticed

If you look carefully in the office, you'll find two posters: one of Agent Scarecrow and another one of
Sorgoth..well...that was the hint. I expected a few emails or posts in the forums asking about it but it didn't happen.

Is it realistic to think that I'll finish the Sorgoth game within a year? Probably not but I hope to have completed most of it by year end.
- I also have other games in the drawer that are near completion; Games that don't fall in the point-and-click or adventure genre... so I don't talk much about them and they get neglected. Games like
Battle of the Four Kingdoms wich resemble a board game like Risk (
http://johnnybdesign.com/bot4k.html).
So I am looking forward to an amazing year, bring on 2008!
