So this is the 1st game right? I know there are others... Do you know the order of the games? I was planning on getting them. Btw was this whole video the whole game for blackwell legacy? It seems kinda short for a game...

[Demiath]

@MrLilalvin10 This video only shows a very small part of the full game. The order of the games in the Blackwell series is as follows;

1) The Blackwell Legacy

2) Blackwell Unbound

3) The Blackwell Convergence

4) The Blackwell Deception

All of them are now available for purchase on Steam, by the way.

do i hear mic hum when she talks? did they have the VAs record in different places?

[Demiath]

@Katzblager Please remember that this is an extremely low-budget production. Luckily, the audio is improved in later entries in the series.

Voice acting is flat for the main character.

blade runner is really great man

The steam version of this is something of a re-release. I don't know all the changes, my understanding is most of them were cosmetic, but they redid the main character's voice with Rebecca Whitaker, the woman who voices her in the rest of the games. The quality of Rosa's dialog is much higher, though the opening scene still sounds flat.

Holy Shit. My last name is Blackwell too! Too bad this game so shitty

[MaxRideWizardLord]

Did they specialy make pixaleble game with spoiled background midi sound?

[cRoxy86]

They should have just skipped the voice acting and go monkey island style ;)

[Katzblager]

@Demiath Didn't know how low budget, apologizes.

[jsbwhite]

Does anyone know all three endings? I've seen the main one but I wanna know

1:what happens if Joey handles it all and not Rosa.

and

2: what happens if you don't do anything after the demon apears in the gateplace? (yes it's another ending :P)
