I’m soo glad you made this in game. When I read “Space Quest Movie” I feared it would look like an Angry Joe video. You did a great job Troels, the writing fits perfectly and makes this entertaining the whole way through. Ditto with the music!
Thank you! I would have no way of making this in live-action... and if I ever did, I would structure the movie entirely differently. 😅 Thanks, it really means a lot that you enjoyed the writing and music. I tried to stay true to the spirit of the original.
This is hype man. I’m going down the rabbit hole of your videos. I’m astounded you don’t have 100k+ subs your work is so high quality. Keep grinding bro.
Thank you very much. That's very kind of you. I'm not very good with keeping a regular upload schedule, so I'm sure that's part of it. This is still just a hobby of mine and I just do videos whenever I find the time. :)
As a lifelong Sierra/Space Quest fan, this is undoubetly one of the greatest fucking things I've ever seen! Kudos to the editing! And the VOICE ACTING!! Youve done it true justice.
If someone told my 8 year old self that my favorite sierra game at that time would eventually become a movie, I wouldn't have believed it. Thank you SQH! 😁 Long live Roger Wilco!
This was such a surprise to find on my subs! The writing, music and voice acting were a blast to listen to. The voice performance on the Navigation Droid alone had me cracking up. The whole thing nailed the spirit of the adventure, and I can't wait to see more of these! Great job to Troels and everyone involved.
We used to joke about "the Space Quest movie" when we were on the SQ message boards in the 90s. This didn't start out with the intention of becoming "the Space Quest movie" - it started out with me just wanting to write new music for SQ1 - but I'm glad the project ballooned a bit in scope.
Thank you! I love referencing that melody because it's so iconic and instantly recognizable, like the Indiana Jones motif or the spaceship refrain from Close Encounters. I recently did a reworked soundtrack for an as-yet-unreleased Space Quest III remake where I wrote a bunch of new music for the bits where the original game was silent. One of the things about the SQ3 soundtrack is that, although it's absolutely fantastic, it only ever references the Space Quest theme in the intro and for one of the death jingles. So I made a point of reintroducing the Space Quest theme melody as often as I could in the new music, and even snuck it in in some of the remixes of the original tunes.
@@spacequesthistorian Looking forward to it. Incidentally "Roger Wilco" was my first handle online, before the Internet days, so you're speaking my language here!
I woke up to an email telling me there was a new vinyl Space Quest soundtrack which was exciting enough, but then it led me to this! Thanks for an awesome and nostalgic viewing while I ate my breakfast. Great work! Loved hearing Ken and Josh too...
I hope that vinyl makes it! It's a bit of a gamble, seeing as most of it is just "that dude's idea of a Space Quest soundtrack" and not the actual soundtrack. Well, the actual soundtrack is in there, too, but still... 😅
@@spacequesthistorian I really like what I've listened to so far of your compositions... Honestly I feel like this vinyl release is worth it for the art alone
@@the_panos The artwork is amazing! Even if people hate the music, I would hope the cover art and inner sleeves would sweeten the deal at least a bit. 😇
Thank you very much! If you liked the Skimmer music, the version in the movie is actually a cut down version of a 3 minute long track. The full track is here: spacequesthistorian.bandcamp.com/track/skimmer Also, psst, vinyl: bit.ly/sq1movievinyl
Well done!! Roger falling down in the cave and then him doing a pretend dumb guy voice when he had the disguise on was hilarious. Also if you make more of these and need an extra random voice for a bit, I'd love to help in any way :)
Amberle did such a great job with the voice. She prepped by drinking a whole pot of extra strong coffee. The outtakes are hilarious. At one point she loses her place in the script and starts scrolling through it with the mic still on, humming the Space Quest theme in an increasingly demented way. 😅
Ah, Machinima at it's finest! I enjoyed that, verily. You really emphasized Roger's bad luck/good luck - rather holy luck when gambling, if only that ever happened. Perhaps that's what it looks like from Roger's POV when we're save scumming! You also seemed to paint him as quite the hero, he didn't really question for a moment that he'd endanger himself doing as Dr. Slash wanted. I thought you advocated the opposite lol! It'd be sweet if there were a way to get some of the Roger deaths in the movies somehow, like if he was imagining how each situation could go wrong (though that could possibly be overdone) - maybe a bloober reel, I'd wager Robert Menes could have a lot of fun voicing many of those grizzly endings! Great job from Josh Mandel, but I'm surprised he didn't play the Xenon leader, blatant disregard to SQ1VGA's claim that King Graham was the King of Xenon. ;D Yall'are doing god's work here.
Thank you! Actually, I thought I had kept it quite ambiguous whether Roger was being heroic or not. I didn't want to push my viewpoint on the viewer; I wanted it to be as open-ended as the game made it. Roger never has a heroic speech and says he's going to save the day. He's just going because if he doesn’t, he has no home to go back to. And "all he wanted was a little nap." So you can read that as heroic or as selfish self-preservation. That was the intent I was going for, anyway.
Superb job, well done. Great job with the voice acting, quite polished and excellent use of scene transitions to give it a good flow. Congratulations !
That was fantastic! That is what every fan made movie should be. Absolutely brilliant! I was laughing so much I was almost in tears. The Bar Patron and Droid are my favorites. Love a good Australian accent and a good smart ass robot.
Thank you! I'm very glad you liked it! You'll be happy to know we're bringing back the nav droid in the SQ2 movie, and the guy who voiced the bar patron (his name is Michael Counsell) has a much more prominent character in it as well.
Amazing job putting this together! After the credits I thought you were setting something up for a sequel... but then my favorite joke happened... "So, do you own King's Quest II?"
I think this video does a good job of illustrating why video games and movies are different media. For all of the original Space Quest's cinematic qualities, it's ultimately just a monologue, with few other characters. Actual films have multiple characters, more action, cutaways to what other characters are doing, etc.
This is very much true. And it's one of the major reasons why we are taking some liberties with the upcoming SQ2 movie and introducing new characters for Roger to talk to along the way.
Thank you! This was one of the best projects I've ever worked on. Fun fact: Amberle, who voiced the droid, drank a whole pot of coffee before recording her lines.
The Nav robot or droidy sounds alot like Slippy the Starfox 64 version lovely nice touch :D I don't hate slippy or the droid both are loveable goofy characters. Really love the work put into the direction of this ingame fanmade movie. Kept a good ear out for who is Josh Mandell and Dan Avidan.
It should have ended with: "Thank you Roger, now just hand me the data cartridge with the star generator plans so we can save Earnon." "Sure, I have it right... (pats pockets) right..." (flashback to leaving it on the planet) "Crap... I'll be right back."
@@spacequesthistorian Since when does Roger ever get things right? There can be a post-credits scene when he slinks back up to the near-empty podium, the crowd long departed, and hands them the data cartridge. I'd imagine they'd tell him to mop up on the way out.
Again, not a bad idea. ☺️ We opted for the post-credits sequence where Ken Williams voices the guard who asks Roger, "Have you played King's Quest II?" It's an admittedly pretty obscure reference to a behind-the-scenes story (that Ken put it in without Scott Murphy's knowledge and Scott was pretty pissed about it), but we couldn't pass up the opportunity to have THE ACTUAL Ken Williams voice that line.
@@spacequesthistorian I guess that explains why the 2 guys slipped those Space Quest eggs into Kings Quest II. Most notably, if you look in a hole in a rock, you're forced to see a 40 second long trailer to Space Quest I. I heard it really p'd off the Williams. I think in later versions Ken swapped it with a KQ trailer or somesuch. We can include my edits in a fake outtakes or alternate endings version, kinda like CLUE. "But here's what really happened..." Heh heh heh, j/k.
@@hotlavatube That's true about the KQ2 hole in the rock! And, yes, in the Apple IIGS version, it was swapped out for a plug for King's Quest III. I actually covered all that in my KQ2 video: ua-cam.com/video/DRx0TIkfTl0/v-deo.html
This is such a gem, Troels! Well done! I am gonna watch it in smaller portions though. Don’t want it to end. If you ever need a Vohaul or alien voice I’m your man. 😈
I was a HUGE space quest fan when I was a kid. I really wish a new space quest game would come or space venture would release. This was a great sq movie, I really enjoyed it.
Thank you very much. ☺️ Have you played the fan games Vohaul Strikes Back or Incinerations? They are really very good, top notch efforts that very much feel like what a potential SQ7 could have been like.
@@spacequesthistorian I did play Space quest lost chapter, replicated and the sq2 vga remake. All great. I need to check the others. Monday I bought a new gaming laptop, basically for programming. First thing i did was installing GOG and all space quests hehe
You're not the first person to suggest this. We'll probably do something like that with SQ2: The Movie - playing them off like a blooper reel. "Okay, Rog, just one step more to the left... not THAT far!"
Awesome job of making the storyline actually a pretty compelling narrative. Roger is such a dweeb lol. Loved the gags where Roger just walks into the dead ends offscreen and bangs his face on things (...am I a bad person?) and I about died at the sound Roger made in the washing machine. @29:28 "I should probably stop talking to myself, too." It's a little late, buddy.
I was hoping for Roger to make a few more mistakes. Like hit a few rocks on the skimmer. Maybe even crash it but animate him to stand up and continu? Also could have bought the green droid, show it breaking down before buying the correct one.
All good ideas. This project did come out a bit backwards, though. Originally I just wanted to write some music for a playthrough I had already recorded ages ago, and it kind of spiraled out of control from there. 😅
HAHA great job... at around 6 minutes I realized how much time you saved by not showing all the times a new player dies until you make it on to the pod. ....
Haha thank you! Also, I had to write around the "keycard for the elevator" thing because it really made Roger come off as a total weirdo to be rummaging through dead bodies for seemingly no reason.
Wait.. Am I the only one seeing the plot of Halo:CE from 2001 taking a lot of inspiration from this game? Like, Escaping the spaceship (Arcada/PoA), crash landing on a planet (ring), going deep down in caves (control rooms) and meeting an all-knowing thing (Guilty Spark the monitor, or, Gravemind from halo 2) who gives you tasks (retrieving the Index), boarding other spaceships, and finally self detonating a spaceship and escaping ... Huh. Also, is that a Dune reference at 7:21 onwards too? And of course, Star wars ;)
Will u do more? Space Quest 2 maybe king's quest the movie? I wish we could have seen Sierra become open world like mass effect king's quest like Skyrim. Space Quest movie, they did want to make movies, but it never did happen as it was shut down soon after it was started. anyone know what movie if any they had plans of?
Why voice quality is so poor? Excellent nostalgy trip, i played Gold Rush in holidays and i get golden memories from the time when computers were wood and men iron. Sudden deaths and dead ends.. Just wonderful!
We've finished the script for the SQ2 movie and we're going to do voice recordings for it soon. After that, we'll edit gameplay footage and new animation to fit the voices. It's going to take a while but the project is underway.
@@spacequesthistorian Another option would have been to have Roger narrate it as if he's telling the story to someone else. That would allow for embellishments on his part that clearly don't exactly match the actions on -screen. Not a criticism. Loved this!
@@ElBromoHojo Good idea. To be honest, this project came out a bit backwards. Originally I just wanted to write new music for the game itself, so I wrote all the music first and timed it to a Let's Play I had recorded. But then, as I was editing it, I started cutting out all the dialogue boxes because I felt it wasn't interesting enough to just watch gameplay with new music underneath it. But then the story made no sense, so I started writing in subtitles with dialogue to replace the dialogue text. And then we got the idea to have the subtitles voiced by actors. So it came about in a roundabout way. We're currently working on a Space Quest II movie, and this time we're doing the script first and timing the gameplay footage to that, so we have a bit more control over the narrative structure and flow.
Hah! This reminds me of the Space Quest machinima I started like, 13 years or so ago. But what you got here is much better. ua-cam.com/users/spacequestmachinimavideos

What a nice way to enjoy his game again. Played it a few weeks ago but could't beat the slot machine. Awesome job, thank you for making this!
Nicely done. I was a voice actor for the fangame SQ IV.5, so hearing other dub projects is awesome.
We've got a fan dub of SQ5 in the works! It's going to be a playable add-on to the existing game. I'm gonna make a video about it soon.
Great job to all that worked on this! If only my 10 year old self from the 90s could have seen this! Looking forward to SQ2!

Yo Dan Avidan in Space Quest is amazing. He really got me into Space Quest on Game Grumps, so to discover this and see him in it is so cool.
Dan is a great guy and was super cool to do this. He even did three takes in different voices, so I was spoilt for choice!
I keep coming back to this. The voice acting is fantastic all round, and genuinely wish you could have kept making them
Technically I never gave up on 'em - the script for SQ2: The Movie is done. Just need to find the time.

That was pretty good. I really like the little side jokes you guys worked in like the Arcada escape pod having one of those car alarm arming sounds.
That sound effect is actually from Space Quest 6! Most of the sound effects I used came from SQ4, SQ5, and SQ6.

@@spacequesthistorian Bitte schön ... 🙂
Its like Roger Wilco's mind.
This is amazingg!
missed the obvious gag about searching corpses of coworkers for keycard
Tiny gave me free tickets to the premiere when I provided him a Cedric part.
We need a movie like this based on all games. Although I doubt sq5 and 6 would be hard to make it funny as this lol
We've been working on SQ2 the Movie for ages now. Still in the script stage but very, very close to being complete.
@@spacequesthistorian awesome! I'll give it some time! Thx for reply
@@timothyvanringelenstijn5987 You'll probably have to give it more than some time... We're not very quick about these things. 😅 Sorry.
@@spacequesthistorian I am a patient man. Do not worry.
That was so fun!
Will u do more? Space Quest 2 maybe king's quest the movie? I wish we could have seen Sierra become open world like mass effect king's quest like Skyrim. Space Quest movie, they did want to make movies, but it never did happen as it was shut down soon after it was started. anyone know what movie if any they had plans of?
Space Quest II - The Movie is in the works. We've been writing the script for a long time now, but it's almost nearly complete.
Wilco's Mind. :)
Big up to Ross Scott, a genius beyond recognition.
Why voice quality is so poor? Excellent nostalgy trip, i played Gold Rush in holidays and i get golden memories from the time when computers were wood and men iron. Sudden deaths and dead ends.. Just wonderful!

If only? It's absolutely a real thing. The premiere is live tomorrow.

**ALSO, WHERE OR WHEN WILL SQ2 MOVIE BE RELEASED??????**
We've finished the script for the SQ2 movie and we're going to do voice recordings for it soon. After that, we'll edit gameplay footage and new animation to fit the voices. It's going to take a while but the project is underway.
I'm about to drink so much Iron Bru!!
That's the way to do it!
Nice effort, although the dialogue is heavily reliant upon narrating what is already happening on screen.
Yes, that's true. Trouble is, for the most part, Roger is entirely on his own, so he has no one to talk to but himself.
@@spacequesthistorian Another option would have been to have Roger narrate it as if he's telling the story to someone else. That would allow for embellishments on his part that clearly don't exactly match the actions on -screen. Not a criticism. Loved this!
@@ElBromoHojo Good idea. To be honest, this project came out a bit backwards. Originally I just wanted to write new music for the game itself, so I wrote all the music first and timed it to a Let's Play I had recorded. But then, as I was editing it, I started cutting out all the dialogue boxes because I felt it wasn't interesting enough to just watch gameplay with new music underneath it. But then the story made no sense, so I started writing in subtitles with dialogue to replace the dialogue text. And then we got the idea to have the subtitles voiced by actors. So it came about in a roundabout way. We're currently working on a Space Quest II movie, and this time we're doing the script first and timing the gameplay footage to that, so we have a bit more control over the narrative structure and flow.
@@spacequesthistorian I can relate!
Hah! This reminds me of the Space Quest machinima I started like, 13 years or so ago. But what you got here is much better.
