I do know I’m virtually a decade late to this occasion, however I’m most likely not the one one, so right here goes.
Double High quality Journey was a wildly profitable 2012 Kickstarter undertaking to crowdfund the event of a point-and-click journey recreation and, crucially, to doc its improvement on video. The ensuing recreation Damaged Age was ultimately launched in two components in 2014 and 2015. Damaged Age is a fantastic recreation and I like to recommend you strive it. It’s obtainable for many platforms and is fairly low-cost (10–15 euros/{dollars} or much less). I performed it on the Nintendo Change, which labored very effectively.
However the actual gem to me was watching the 12.5-hour documentary on YouTube. A video manufacturing group adopted the whole three-year improvement course of from begin to end. It supplies a refreshingly candid and clear perception into “how the sausage is made”, together with delicate subjects resembling monetary issues, layoffs, and lengthy work hours. All through all of the ups and downs there’s a beautiful sense of enjoyable and camaraderie among the many group at Double High quality, which made watching the documentary much more pleasurable to me than enjoying Damaged Age. You’ll be able to inform these individuals love working with one another. I extremely advocate looking in the event you discover this mildly fascinating.
The primary main recreation spoilers don’t come till episode 15, so you may safely watch many of the documentary earlier than enjoying the sport (and that is how the unique Kickstarter backers skilled it). Nonetheless, I believe it’s much more fascinating to play the sport first, or to expertise each side-by-side. My suggestion: watch two or three episodes of the documentary. In the event you prefer it, begin enjoying Damaged Age alongside it.
