> [@Kuma](#): > > The fan game “Indiana Jones and the Fountain of Youth” decided to drop the unlicensed Indy IP and continue as “The Fountain of Youth”, with all legally problematic Indy references removed: Read that as well, and it’s somewhat sad. But personally, if I’d be investing a lot of time and effort into something, I wouldn’t want to risk all of it going down the drain because some overzealous big corporation does not value my expression of fandom. So the decision is kind of understandable. Might also indicate that the team has larger ambitions than producing an obscure fan-made tribute that has hopes of flying under the radar (so this could be good news, actually!). No doubt the atmosphere of the game might change a bit when the famous protagonist is replaced by the rather unknown Idaho Jim, but if the script is any good, this should not be a big deal. (And if it’s bad, the presence of Indy would not have saved it, as The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull successfully demonstrated). ---

> [@yrface](#): > > Maybe it wasn’t the full version They do have a demo available for computers and mobiles. Judging by the description on their website, it’s chapter 1 of the game. I don’t like episodic content that much, so I’ll be waiting for the full game before playing. But at least I can rest assured that it’ll be available for the platform of my choice 🙂.

What I really meant to say was that I did not want to start playing the game as far as the demo allows, then wait for an unspecified amount of time before I can play the rest. ---

Here’s a [Kickstarter](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/44504987/lust-from-beyond/description) for Lust from Beyond, a lovecratian erotic horror adventure game that I’m involved with. I’m doing all sound design and editing trailers. I also did music for the trailer below. The demo we’re releasing for Kickstarter backers is rather big and it contains a single story within a bigger universe, so it kind of is a new game already. Obviously the lenght depends on your gaming style, but I think it should be over 40 minutes and I know some play it for 80 min. There are some puzzles typical for adventure games, but the game is more about exploration and story rather than solving stuff. I’m told wishlists on Steam are a big thing for devs, so if any of you are interested, please add us. I’m really curious to hear what you guys think, if any of you will check it out! And here’s the trailer. It’s occasionally NSFW ---

Elsinore will release on June 24th: https://store.steampowered.com/widget/512890 There’s the plan for a same-day Linux release (they had one of the early alphas for Linux, so sounds credible) and possibly it’ll be DRM free on [itch.io](http://itch.io) too (but could also be exclusive to backers). ---
