Hello everyone, It's Ben from Cold Coffee Studio, sorry for the very very very long pause but I get gifted a second baby girl few months ago and even if it was predicted it has been totally under estimated in term of planning! After few months, I have been able to go back to work and now I'm ready to release a new project! Some of you may have heard of this project but it's now ready to be revealed: our first gamebook "Choose Your Own Adventure"! It's coming on Steam, June 15th!The game has also been submitted to BFG review team, I'm waiting their answer. This first gamebook is called : DnD Adventure: Wizard's Choice!You play a wizard in this interactive novel set in a medieval fantasy world. Stay alive, manage your spell power, find treasure, and smite evil. - The game includes more than 300.000 words for 20+ hours of game. - It's the adaptation of a mobile app downloaded more than 10.000.000 times on iOS and Android together! It has been fullly reworked from 0, we only keep the stories^^ - Zero learning curve, read the story, make your decisions and face the consequences! - Lot of confort features such as screen luminosity, 8 different fonts and the possibility to increase the font size!

pennmom, SynthpopAddict, Sorry for the link, I edited my post to make it works :) Thank you for the wishlist :) BFG wants to do a survey because they are not sure about the game. I will keep you updated!

Hello metmichallica, Gamebook or "choose your own adventure" games are interactive stories where you are given a situation and you need to choose between multiple possibilities. Every choice matters and will make the story progress. In Wizard's Choice, you are a wizard roaming in the forest with his friend, Reginold the warrior, looking for fights, fortune and glory. Thank you pennmom, I'm very interested to have your honest feedback as usual! Wizard's Choice is the first gamebook we release but we plan to add more in different themes (sci-fi, vampires, fantasy, actual time...).

Well it's different and I like different but wonder if it will not suit many on BF, that is if you are thinking of putting it there?
You are basically reading a book so you need to enjoy reading and this is a very dark book but what I love about it and now I can't stop reading is that you choose different options which opens up the book depending on what you choose and you gain or lose mana, life, gold etc depending on what route you take. I must admit I am not much of a reader but this appeals to me. You can leave and return exactly where you leave off. Very different from anything on BF but I am liking something different.
It is not going to suit everyone.

cyril50, Thank you for your feedback, I feel like it's not the usual stuff on BFG (and I don't really know in which category it would go if they accept it) but not that far from dark themed point&click adventure games. It's just another way to tell stories and interact with them. I hope they will give it a chance, I think people might find it refreshing and the have the trial time to know if it's really worth or not... BFG is not taking any risk...

I hope they give it a chance too as I don't buy many games from Steam. Well in my case I don't get my brother to buy many games from Steam. It's just easier to get it from Bigfish and it's easier to ask my brother for a game from Bigfish. He is used to Bigfish and Gamehouse. Ben it would be good if you could get your games on Gamehouse. That would be really good. They may even like your new game.

pennmom, Don't worry :) I know this one is kinda special and unusual :) I may come back to more standard games in the future, just have a lot to deal with currently and not enough time to work on the games!

I would love to have my games on GameHouse... I don't understand why they never answered me... I can't remember if you were the one who was asking about this at Pond Friends, but have you tried doing a search for "people who work at GameHouse" or some such at LinkedIn? Perhaps the contact person you were using before no longer works there.

Hello Inhabitants of the Woods :) I hope you are all doing good and prepared for winter! If you are looking for a nice book-adventure for those evenings next to the fireplace or in the bed, on your laptop, I have what you are looking for! I'm kinda a dealer but with gamebooks to sell! "It's good stuff!" So today we are releasing our second gamebook called Rogue's Choice. It's a standalone so you can play it after/before/without Wizard's Choice! This time, you will be a rogue looking for money to pay your debts, debts that can not be dodged or postponed since you owe this money to the underworld... And you owe them a lot... Are you ready for a new adventure? Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/2055740/DnD_Adventure_Rogues_Choice/SynthpopAddict, Sorry I forget to answer, I tried on Linkedin but didn't find anyone from this company or the company itself. It's even harder that there are other companies named GameHouse on LinkedIn...
