New Legacy of Time review

Inside Mac Games just posted a review of the Mac OS X version of The Journeyman Project 3. Not bad for a game over a decade old. (Has it really been that long?)

The Journeyman Project 3 for Mac OS X sold out!

The Journeyman Project 3: Legacy of Time DVD-ROM for Mac OS X just ran out of stock and the disc manufacturer that was previously used has apparently exited the business. We'll work on getting more units, but it may take a little while. (hopefully by around the end of the month)

A little something for Buried in Time fans

Here's a 360 degree QuickTime VR turnaround of Agent 5's time-traveling JumpSuit from The Journeyman Project 2 to start off the new year:



You can actually see the crew turning the real-life suit on a big Lazy Susan in front of a blue screen matte in this Making of production video.

Happy Grinchmas!

Oceanhouse Media, a new mobile software developer comprised of a number of Presto Studios alumni, saw its newly released "Grinchmas" become an Apple featured game after it hit #1 in the kid's app category.

This follows the successful release of their other Dr. Seuss licensed app, the "GrinchCam".

The Journeyman Project 3 on Apple's Featured Games

Back in the 90's, Presto Studios was having very frank discussions about the viability of continuing to support the then-disappearing Mac platform — this was before Steve Jobs' return to Apple rescued the company from the brink of bankruptcy. Fortunately, Presto's last two adventure games, Myst 3: Exile and The Journeyman Project 3: Legacy of Time were released for PowerMacs and later ported to Mac OS X. In a nice Thanksgiving surprise, the latter showed up on Apple's website for featured adventure games.

Happy Thanksgiving!

This loaf of cornbread would fit right in with turkey day. It's also perhaps the most elaborately hidden easter egg in The Journeyman Project 3. Here's a few hints: it appears in a remote location after successfully entering an alternate "unlocking" combination somewhere else in the same time zone. Regarding the combination, what creature would you most likely feed this to? This easter egg also triggers yet another easter egg as it can be used in place of another hard-to-get item to gain entry into a restricted area elsewhere in the game.
