Our games have always pushed the limits of game genres. Quest for Glory and Shannara were adventure games that were also role-playing and storytelling games. Castle of Dr. Brain brought together challenging word games, math puzzles, mazes, and more in entertaining ways. Hero-U: Rogue to Redemption combined adventure gaming, role-playing, and a school simulation.
Now we're at it again with Summer Daze at Hero-U, and as usual, it's hard to describe. That's why we'll be playing through part of the game to show you what it's all about! Summer Daze could be described as a visual novel, a "choices matter" game, an adventure game, a relationship game, or even a casual role-playing game.
Join us at https://www.twitch.tv/transolargames on Saturday, June 20, 2020 at 2 pm PDT to experience Summer Daze at Hero-U with the developers. We'll play through part of the game and talk about the development process and our plans for Summer Daze and future games.
We'll also run some contests, play a bit of the Quest for Infamy game that was inspired by Quest for Glory, and try to find time for Lori to read from her young adult novel, By the Book.
The Story: Summer Daze at Hero-U is a light-hearted interactive tale of friendship, fun, and folly suitable for all ages. It's up to you to save the upcoming Harvest Festival at Hero University from imminent disaster... or make it even worse! Will you forge life-long friendships? Will you be the hero, or will you be expelled from Hero-U? It all depends on how you play the game.
Gameplay: Summer Daze is an interactive story game that changes through your choices. You play as the studious Wizard Ifeyo or the mischieveous Rogue Tilly. Your choices will help you make friends, have exciting adventures, and help the Harvest Festival succeed (or fail gloriously). This is a dialogue-driven point-and-click game with choice menus and an interactive game map.
The Team: Corey and Lori Cole, the husband and wife team behind Transolar Games, have designed many great games including the Quest for Glory series, Castle of Dr. Brain, and Hero-U: Rogue to Redemption. With the support of their talented development teams and devoted fans, they continue to create role-playing, adventure, and story-telling games full of lore, mystery, wonder, and beauty.
