So the last few days I’ve been hard at work doing production art for Reemus Chp.4. I’ve completed 10 of the 17 unique backgrounds featured in the game as well as a chunk of character animation. I’m happy to say it’s going quite smoothly!
Chapter 4 is the first Reemus game where I’ve written the entire game in advance. Usually I do a few puzzles and then dive into production and make the rest up as I go. As you’ve seen from past games that can result in some uneven puzzles and annoyances.
I’m happy to say that Chapter 4 should be free from all minor quibbles of past games. I’m very excited to show everyone. So excited that I talked to Steve and we agreed, anyone who orders The Ballads of Reemus will get to play this game as soon as it’s done. Not sometime in the summer when Ballads is released, but the minute its ready to be played. That will probably be a couple months before the rest of the internet.
Reemus encounters some nasty hornets during his travels
Why? Well my reason is two fold. One, to give you something to play while you wait for Ballads to arrive and as a thank you for your early support of my first paid adventure game. It’s a bold step into the unknown and I really appreciate all your kind words and support! Two, I want your feedback on the puzzles and some of the new design choices. Those that have already pre-ordered I consider hardcore fans, so there’s no better people to ask about what should stay and what should go.
Your feedback will have a big impact on some of my ideas for The Ballads of Reemus. I look forward to growing with you!
That’s your small taste for now. For those that are subscribed to my newsletter, look for more screen shots arriving in your inbox soon!
BTW, Steve and I are hanging out in the ClickShake Forums. So if you have any questions or comments head over and chat with us!

K now your starting to leave fans out of the loop just because they can’t pay. I can understand you selling ballads but letting people play it early just because they paid for ballads doesn’t sound fair. It’s pretty good move to alienate your fans.
I consider it a form of Beta Testing. Lots of games release early to a select few so they can work the kinks out. That’s exactly what I want, feedback on puzzles and design.
If I’m going to ask people to test out puzzles, it might as well be the fans that are giving me their support and ensuring that I continue to make these games.
At the end of the day you still get a free Reemus game, even if you have to wait an extra few weeks to play it. The end result from waiting is you get to play a more polished game. If that alienates you I’m not sure what to say.
I’m open to suggestions, but that seems fair to me.
I got to say I’ll be looking forward to this new project but I got other things to do in the meantime to keep me sane.
Oh non!
anyone who orders The Ballads of Reemus will get to play this game as soon as it’s done.
</3
To add to that, members of the ClickShake Site will get to play it early as well.
But yes, those that have pre-ordered will be my first wave of test monkeys.
Hey
You have done great with the first chapters, had very much fun playing them. So I hope the new one will make me laugh too.
I´m really looking forward to the new chapter and I´m patient doesn´t matters to me to wait longer
You know what would be awesome buy all the chapters together in a cardboard box with a dial-a-beetle as copy-protection. *hehe*
All right then go on with your good work! ^^
Oh some things I forgot to say
Firstly sorry for my bad english
Will there ever be a third part of a small favor? I know you are busy in time with reemus just want to know if there ever will be a new part…
I originally envisioned Small Favor as a trilogy, so at some point I would like to revisit it and finish the story.
