Destructoid tells us that an indie remake of the classic King's Quest III went live 4 days ago on the creators' website. The death of the Adventure Game is just now starting to be properly mourned, and I swear I can see the bloated corpse twitching a little here and there.
I'm ready for an adventure game zombie apocalypse, readers. I am fully prepared to dig the new Sam and Max that's looming on the horizon (heh, see what I did there?)
But alas! There has risen a plucky group of gamers called Imfamous Adventures that have taken it upon themselves to bring back those true 2D adventuring golden days, starting with a completely 1:1 remaster of Roberta William's classic 1986 hit, King's Quest III.
They even rescored it, and offer the new tunes on the same page as the game itself. Also hinted at is a new voice cast, but the download link is appended with a dubious "coming soon".
Destructoid has gathered comparable screenshots of the actual game and put them side-by-side with grabs from the remake, just to demonstrate the sheer amount of work that went into this.
