Hey Doc, I have been looking for this for so long. However Its a shame there are only 2 levels. The Rescue of Sir Ragnar is bugged though. Once I get to the bottom room I can not do anything. What are the chances of completing this game? If you need some cash I would be more than happy to throw some your way for your time in finishing the game.
Hi there, thanks for playing! At this stage I have no plans to finish the game unfortunately. I would love to revisit it in the future though.
While I appreciate the offer to pay for the game I do not have permission by the people that own the IP for the game, so I’m very deliberately not asking for money. This was just a fan project which was a great leaning experience. :)
aw bumma, that's a shame. Well good job anyway. Was it hard to do? I ask because I would like to create exactly what you have done there. I have 9 actual copies of Hero Quest, a couple of Advanced Hero Quest and all the expansions including Barbarian, elf and wizard expansion and I would love to do what you have done only with all the expansions. Any chance of pointing me in the right direction?
Thanks. :) I guess hard is a relative term? It was the second game I'd worked on and there was a lot to learn at the time that might not take as long if I did it now. I worked on it pretty solidly in my free time over I think 6 months or so? I actually had to borrow a copy of Hero Quest from someone local, I haven't owned a copy for a long time! Do you have any experience in game development at all?
absolutely zero experience in game development. I do however have a good mate who does so he would be doing all the hard work really. Was it a particular program you used or did you have to write all the code yourself?
Love it! Thanks for sharing. I hope the comments in the survey are useful. Meant to say... if you run out of steam and feel the need for a fellow Unity developer to help out or do some testing. Do ask.
Hi, thanks for getting in touch! This is just a fan project as obviously Hero Quest is an existing IP, so there will be no real 'release'. At the moment I'm only making it for Windows but I'd be open to trying to get it working on other systems as well. Was there a system in particular you were interested in?
Hi there! Thanks for taking the time to write. In a future version I'll try and get the UI set up to work at different resolutions. Do you mind if I ask what resolution your screen uses?

Hey... looks like someone finished a remake of this at http://www.gamecodeplus.com (or GameCodePlus on YouTube)
That’s cool!! :D

Hi there, what systems will HQ be released for on completion?

Hi there. As you wrote, there are indeed problems when not running the game with a resolution of 1920 x 1080:

I wish I could play the game, it really seems cool :-) But it is impossible at this point :/
Hi there! Thanks for taking the time to write. In a future version I'll try and get the UI set up to work at different resolutions. Do you mind if I ask what resolution your screen uses?
Not at all! It uses 1600 x 900
Thanks! I'll try and get support for your resolution in the next version. :)
