Ever since I first started working on PinesQuest 2D, other aspiring Gravity Falls fan game creators have occasionally asked me for the assets from the original PinesQuest game from the Disney XD website. Originally, I thought I would release these assets along with the full game… however as PQ2D’s full version continued to be delayed, whether it be due to lack of contributors, underestimating the time necessary, or for various other reasons, I’ve realized there’s less and less reason to similarly delay the release of these assets. Therefore…

I’ve decided to release ALL of the original PinesQuest’s graphical assets for anyone to freely use for their own Gravity Falls fan games! All that I ask is that if you use these sprites in your game, that you please credit T.N. Newton for ripping them! DOWNLOAD THE ORIGINAL PINESQUEST ASSETS HERE!!!

I hope this will help other potential fan game creators and further tide folks over until PQ2D’s full version is finished! Speaking of which….

I’m moving the release estimate of the full game from Q4 2017 to Q1 2018. This is because PQ2D’s amazing pixel art contributor, biophosphoradelecrystalluminesce, is currently working on the environment assets for Dungeons 10 and 11, and hopefully she will be done with these by the end of the year (though given the holidays coming up, it’s possible she may need extra time). The original Q4 2017 estimate was when I had multiple contributors working on pixel art, while now it’s just Biophos. Luckily there isn’t much left that needs to be done in terms of pixels, just these last 2 dungeon environments that she’s working on currently, nonetheless this process is slower with only one person. I also now have the very lovely and talented artist hntrgurl13 working on some illustrations for the game’s cutscenes!

Once all of the game’s dungeon assets and these illustrations are finished, the process of completing the rest of the game will become much easier, faster, and more streamlined! As I mentioned before, the biggest problem PQ2D has faced over the course of it’s 2 year development has been simply finding people to help me with the parts of the game I’m unable to create by myself. However, soon this will no longer be an issue, as everything required for me to finish the game on my own will be complete! And you honestly have no idea how happy I am to be able to finally say that!!!

The full game might seem like it’s still a while away, but I promise, it’s closer than you think…. and everything is about to kick into high gear, very, VERY soon! :D Thank you for following the development of PinesQuest 2D, and as always, stay weird, Fallers!
