    Roger Wilco, the space janitor dedicated to cleaning the evil out of the galaxy, our hearts go out to you. May you live on in the stars you meticulously swept and mopped.

    I found myself passionately humming this theme to myself earlier today, despite having not heard it for 30+ years.
    So I looked it up here, and it is as glorious as when I first heard it at age 12.

    Spaceventure, the latest project by the two guys, has just finished its kickstarter, and they did it. The two guys from andromeda are back, and bringing us all new space glory.

    Not yet, but Mark and Scott have said that the deal isnt off the table yet. That said, SpaceVenture is the spiritual successor. All thats missing is Roger himself, the narration, humour, everything is there once again. This is, for all intents and purposes, Space Quest rebooted :)

    @krane6457 The Quest in the title was kind of Sierra's trademark, like in Police Quest or Quest for Glory (formerly known as Hero's Quest) which were arguably not that similar to the others.
    Since Roberta was co-founder of Sierra, I guess that is why it says "Roberta Williams says thank you for playing King's/Space Quest" when you die in either game (Ken Williams also appeared at the end of the Leisure Suit Larry remake).
    But if you don't believe me, look it up for yourself on Wikipedia or IMDB.

    There needs to be a Space Quest movie based on Space Quest 1. Every single scene, live action, Jimmy Fallon as Roger Wilco.

    I might be a tad bit late with throwing my two cents in to this whole who-wrote-what-game discussion, but Roberta Williams did NOT write the Space Quest series. She did wrote the King's Quest games, but Space Quest were all written by Mark Crowe and Scott Murphy (Two Guys From Andromeda). The reason the games look very similar is because they (Sierra On-Line) used the same game engine to produce both game series (as well many, many other games).

    @krane6457 As far as I know, Roberta Williams was just a writer, so the fact that the games look alike just shows that many of the same artists and programmers worked on them.
    As for the story and humor, it certainly may have been inspired by King's Quest, but that doesn't mean that the same person wrote it.

      Benjamin Fuller It can't. The license to Roger Wilco and "Space Quest" is not available at any reasonable price. Thus "Space Quest" became "SpaceVenture" and Roger Wilco was replaced with Ace Hardway.

    @CrazyliciousFlavor then why is it very similiar AND have 'quest' in it like king's quest? besides, in the very first games of both kings and space quest if you die at the end or something it says "roberta williams says thank you for playing kings/space quest!" or something
