Hello and welcome to the Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy Remake, web place. Hopefully you’ve gone to Marks and Spencer and got your towel. We’re remaking the original game of 1984, released by Infocom, programmed by Steve Meretzky and story plotted by Douglas Adams himself.
Difference between this remake and the BBC one, is that we’re not remaking the game into a text-based game, but instead as point and click, with keeping however the interactivity levels very high, but also introducing two levels of difficulty.

Very nice site!
Brilliant, keep up the good work, can’t wait for this!!
I can’t wait either! Awesome idea! Douglas would be proud!
-Thanks man, that means a lot to me!!-
Hey, I’ve been playing the demo and all but uh… when is this being released? On the forums, the last release date was, well, December. I am really looking forward to it. I just want some kind of solid date. This year I hope.
-Me too. I’m planning on updating the demo, yeah it’s kind of old.
Keep it up! I can’t wait!
i would play that
Wow, I didn’t heard about that till now. Thanx.
why not sell vip passes, ask 4 contributions, whatever would help u, but of coz if ur already heavily financed dont mind me..
to misquote javier ‘i would pay that’ Anyhow, hope u make it through (and go on with other Infocom titles) ;)
Happy new year….
So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish!
Far out!
Keep it up (if you are still working on it).
-I am still indeed..Thanks for the comment!
Froody!!
Phreeow! It’ll be out by the end of the month? Is this for real? It’s so close I can taste it! It tastes like Manwich. Either that, or its the manwich I’m eating.
So, where will it be? Here? How can I get my zarking hands on it?
-This is for real. I will have the download link posted here, as well as the AGS forums. Thanks for the interest Dave.
Hey guys,
i like your style and i’m looking forward to play your game very soon!
On http://www.fanadventures.net we are about to build a international community for adventure game developers. Some developers already added their projects and post their news. It would be fantastic to see you up there, discuss with you in the boards, and maybe you can give some good hints and tips about your development, too. :)
All the Best,
Marvel
-Oh, thanks Marvel, I’ve been a lurker to your site, for a while now, thanks for the great interest, I’ll be there sure.
It’s almost here!!!
I love you people!!!!!!!!
Guys, I thought it was out today?! :'(
-Check again :D
Aw. I kept hearing so much about how Douglass Adams loved his mac that I’d hope there would be a mac version, OH its a game. Damn. Nvm
Great stuff!
Thanks for putting this out.
Hey guys thank you so much for the info. I am a huge Hitch Hiker Guide To The galaxy fan. This is very helpful.
Looks awesome! Will this work with ScummVM on linux?
-It’d be best to use Wine to run the game on Linux. Works on my Ubuntu. :P
thank you. very good!
Will this be made available for Ubuntu linux?
REPLY: Would you care for that? Most people emulate Linux via WINE, and if I recall correct this is playable in Linux either ways. But if you want I can port it there.
CONGRATULATIONS!
Keep up the good work!
Needs a flattr.com button ;)
very nice, is there supposed to be speech?
Reply: It’s on the coming-soon features, but honestly with that rate, I don’t see it coming.
Is there a Mac version coming for PPC Macs?
-Lots of people are asking for one, I’m not really sure if its worthwhile to go into that trouble. So nothing planned for now. Sorry to disappoint.
Um… I probably sound like an idiot, but how do you download this?
All you need to do is just click on the big blue letters that say download game.
the interface is staggeringly bloody AWFUL!
you need hotkeys for things like your inventory.
You really should consider a Mac version, especially now that they have the same Intel processors as PCs. Douglas Adams was a HUGE Mac fan and it is posthumously offensive that his platform isn’t supported by what essentially is his game.
Make a Linux version, please.
Honestly, if you can make a Linux version, you should, even if the Wingdows version works with Wine.
