DALegacy: Goliath's Requiem Announcement!


Hey folks! It's been a long while since I last posted an update to this page - that time being the initial announcement for DAChronicles.

While there isn't any real news regarding that game (and probably won't have any for a long while) - I do have something to share regarding a brand new project for DALegacy - Goliath's Requiem!

DALegacy: Goliath's Requiem is a new fangame based on DAGames (obvz) - specifically it's original creator; Will Ryan, and the work he's done for his band; IRIS.

So why is this being done rather than DAChronicles? Well a few reasons actually.

To start off simply - I honestly don't feel like I'm ready to make a proper sequel to the original game. There's been so much stuff happening as of lately for DAGames that it's seriously hard to catch up and jumble it into a full experience. As much as I would LIKE to make a sequel, I feel it's better to wait it out.

But with the original turning 5 years old this year - I felt I really wanted to do something for it. Initially I wanted to do a quality-of-life update for the game that would also add a few features here and there. However, not only do I not have the original Clickteam files for DALegacy, I also felt a simple update wouldn't do this game's anniversary justice.

That's when it clicked - even though I don't feel ready to make a sequel, I STILL wanted to make some kind of new experience (if that makes sense). Which is why I decided to make a new game that has it's own story to tell, while still taking place in the same world as the original.

DALegacy was a nice little fun project to make back then - simple, a bit tedious yes, but sentimental all the same. This however? I want to make something that's ACTUALLY fun to come back to - no matter how many times you play.

And what better way to make a new game about Will's work than to make it about one of his most intriguing work and character to date: IRIS and Goliath.

I'm seriously excited to be back in the game (literally), and I hope you all are as well!

You can find more details about the game on it's standalone page - where I'll also be posting some updates for it from time to time. https://gamejolt.com/games/DALegacy-GR/588030
