Another crowd-sourced funding game dev project has reached it's goal today, with SpaceVenture -- the adventure game proposal from the creators of Space Quest -- hitting US$500,000 with only a day left on the clock.

Over the course of the funding campaign, creators Scott Murphy and Mark Crowe (who haven't made a game in over 20 years) have posted some 49 updates, revealing characters and themes that paint the game as being as much of a Space Quest spiritual successor as legally possible.

In leui of space-janitor Roger Wilco, the hero of SpaceVenture is intergalactic plumber Ace Hardway and his robotic dog Rooter:

With Space Venture ,Scott and Mark want to take you on a journey to new worlds, with a great story, fascinating new characters , new challenges and, of course, tons of side -splitting humor; all the stuff fans worldwide have come to expect from a Two Guys Adventure. No sci-fi/fantasy related movie, series or video game is safe from Scott and Mark’s brand of satire. “We’re looking at you Avatar, Firefly, and Halo.”

The game will play, look, sound and feel every bit like it was cut from the same cloth as their previous creations, ONLY MUCH BETTER in every way! ‘The Guys’ have learned a thing or two over the years and tech has improved since the 90s.

SpaceVenture is in development for PC, Mac, Linux, iPad and Android Tablets with a view to launch DRM-free versions were possible.
