My Big Fat Update
Be All You Can Beta
Just got an email from Jolt with some updated information on the game:
This is the inaugural Legends of Zork update email and we'll be keeping it pretty brief as we're in the very final stages of finishing the game. In fact that's why we're writing. We need to increase our beta group to make sure we get the game balancing right. If you'd like to help, please pop us an email: lozbeta@joltonline.com.
Now, a word about LoZ (as we affectionately call it). I've been reading a lot of speculation about what kind of a game this will be and I really want to set expectations correctly. LoZ is a casual adventure game. We've designed it to be the kind of game that sneaks into your soul and steals about 20mins of your time
each day. It's not an MMO (collective sigh of relief, I'd imagine). We genuinely think it's a worthy addition to the Zork universe but at the same time we know that some of you won't agree. You'll have the opportunity to try it out very soon though.
Finally, I'll start posting some game details on the blog about game mechanics and other *actual* detail in the next few days (we've been annoyingly vague on it).
So if you are Zork fan, post some suggestions or join up for Beta testing, I have. Let's make sure Jolt lives up to it's promises and also their responsibility to the FrobozzCo brand name.
