Chivalry Is Not Dead…

by Amber on April 20th, 2007

Deirdra Kiai, the developer of the great free adventure game, Cubert Badbone, PI , one of the lucky interns at TellTale Games, and a new summer programmer over at Backbone Entertainment (and I’ve heard through the grapevine that she is a hater of the ads on my site here… I asks you… how else am I to afford the hundreds of dollars I spend on porn a month?), has just announced that she shall be creating a brand new game of her own called Chivalry Is Not Dead.

This is how Deirdra explains her new game:

It is a game that contains many of your stereotypical fantasy characters on a stereotypical fantasy quest, except something just isn’t quite right about it. For one thing, you play the role of the evil sorcerer’s personal slave and henchman, tasked with assassinating the kind and peace-loving Queen of Everything. But is the Queen really as kind and peace-loving as she seems, or is she actually a manipulative control freak after her own personal gain? Furthermore, is the attractive long-haired hero tasked with saving the world from the clutches of the evil sorcerer really nothing more than an arrogant boy with delusions of grandeur? And finally, is the evil sorcerer truly evil, or simply lonely and misunderstood?

There is so much mystery in this statement, that I don’t even know how to wrap my head around it. But, it sounds cool and something that would be right up my alley of coolness.

Deirdra also says that Adventure Gamers plans on doing “… a short series of articles detailing the making of Chivalry is Not Dead”. Mmm, I love me some adventure gaming articles on how games are made. Every time I read them, I want to create my own game. But then I remember that I have no artistic ability and probably couldn’t write a story for one if my life depended on it.
