Quote
Joe Kowalski Chronicles is a dark neo noir mystery detective game. It's classic point'n'click adventure with some extras like pulling out a gun and solving problems with it (remember '97 and Blade Runner). It has classic clues and inventory items, detective investigations, mini games and some other goodies like rare action scenes (remember '05 and Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy) and time factor in game. We tried not to stray too far from old school point and click adventure games of 90's think "Discworld Noir" mixed with "Blade Runner" in period of early 60's.

In this prequel to series woman has been murdered in apartment and our main protagonist Joe, has to find a killer between short list of suspects.


Happy Gaming!

Thanks Ana for introducing game.

Trying to finish this game for a while now but plan is set for end of 2020 to go live with this prequel called "Murder in a flat".

Game is now on IndieDB so anyone that's interested may find some game screenshots showing gameplay:

Also there's twitter account:

Facebook's here but it's under scrutiny at the moment.
I hope our buddies from FB will work it out soon so we can post some content over there as well:

Main concern now is to make good website were we will have updates about game progress, should be launched in next few months:

@Mad: don't worry about action scenes - there's only one and it's more there to make a choice then to actually be fast enough to press combo keys in 1/2 seconds.

Thanks everyone for the support wink


Cheers,
Joe

Thanks. If I read the information correctly, there will be 5 chapters? Is each a complete story or cliff-hanger continuation?

Re: Announcing Joe Kowalski Chronicles - 01/31/21 03:46 AM

Thank you for the interest in the game, I'll try to explain everything and more below...

If you count in this first prologue chapter that will be free to play there will be total of 5 chapters.
Story itself will go from Joe's police days then to Joe's private detective days but can also go back/forth because it may be relevant to the game.
Each chapter will have main story that will go on, but every chapter will also have full crime/mystery that will be playable from beginning to the end.
It's one of the things why we went from "prologue" to "semi-real chapter 1" for "Murder in a flat".

I personally hate cliffhangers and "to be continued..." season finales where you wait for another year and they cancel series you were so hooked on...
So to answer your question: NO, you will never see this as long as I'm in charge of things - also I can promise you that as long as I'm around there will be end chapter of "Joe Kowalski Chronicles" wink

One thing I'd like to point out is that "Murder in a flat" will be out for free as it's "Iron Noir Soft" debut game and also I don't want people saying - "Rooarrgh! (@Tuna&Knez) I bought that crp game I wish I can have my money back" smile
So, you see first chapter for free know what you can expect and next one should only be better and longer. Chapters will be released every year one chapter (with some delays possible).

I would love at some point to do short story release every month or even 2 weeks like some series but that would require big team and cost a lot of money - so let's hope we earn something on future chapters that we are able to do it - would be a great thing for game industry in general to see this happen - "A Brave new world" where cliffhangers would actually make sense.
