It’s been a long road, full of tears and caffeine but finally, we can proudly announce that Randal will start to sow chaos among the human race on November 12th, 2014, on both Steam and GOG. I know what you’re thinking so, don’t worry. There will be a version for PC and a version for MAC. ‘Cause you know, we don’t like unnecessary violence. Randal’s Monday will be available for pre-order on Steam starting October 29th for $24.99.

If you pre-order it on Steam, you will also get Daedalic Entertainment’s adventure game: ‘Edna & Harvey: The Breakout’ for free.

If you prefer to purchase the game on GOG, the terms and dates will be exactly the same as on Steam with the exception that if you pre-order it at full price you will be able to pick a game among these three: ‘Edna & Harvey: The Breakout’, ‘Deponia’ or ‘A New Beginning’.

So, now you know! If you can’t wait to enjoy Randal Hicks’s time-space odyssey go mark those dates on your calendar right now!! Remember, the pre-order starts on October 29th and the game will be released on November 12th.

And spread the word, goddamnit!!

Remember that we will be attending the upcoming Madrid Games Week that will be held from October 16th-19th where we’ll be presenting Randal’s Monday to the public. You will also be able to try the game in the “Gamelab Academy area”.

Also, don’t forget that we will be giving a talk about the degrading evolution Lars Von Trier films have experienced in the last years on October 18th (Saturday), and, well… if we have time, we’ll also talk a little bit about Randal’s Monday.

And if we have a bunch of high quality voices for the Spanish version, the English one has no reason to be jealous!

At this point, it’s no secret that Jeff Anderson (one of the main characters from the “Clerks” movies) has collaborated in Randal’s Monday by helping with the script and the dialogues. But of course he’s done more than that, as he also puts the voice for our main character.  What better guy to play a sociopathic, kleptomaniac moron called Randal, than someone who’s done it before and in front of a camera?

On the other hand, we also have worked with other very talented and experienced actors in the field of video games, actors that have starred in sagas as “Deponia” or “The Witcher”.  (Yes, the very same Geralt de Rivia puts his voice for one of our characters!!)

So, again, we couldn’t feel more honored.

The release date is getting closer so, soon you’ll be able to experience all this yourselves… just a little more patience.

Just like last year, it was a crazy experience! We had dozens and dozens of meetings and interviews with several different video games media. In fact, there were so many that we barely got to see the actual fair… which is a good thing!! We love to be able to show people our work, but we love it even more when those people (who don’t know us or owe us anything) give us a great feedback! It’s really fulfilling to see so many experts on the video games field laughing and enjoying Randal’s adventures. That feeling is priceless!

Randal’s Monday Spanish Voice Over

In case anyone wasn’t sure about the quality of the voices for the Spanish version of Randal’s Monday, get on your guard!

We are very honored to announce that we’ve gathered a great cast of famous and well-known voices.

People like Pepe Mediavilla (the actor who puts the voice for Morgan Freeman), Ramón Langa (Bruce Willis),  David Robles (Leonardo Dicaprio and also Randal in “Clerks”) or Mar Bordallo (Penny in Big Bang Theory) are in this project, so that will result in some very sharp, charismatic and full of life characters. Their help will make sure that this little “micro-cosmos” we have created overflows with quality.

Of course these are not the only talented actors we casted but… we are not gonna reveal them just yet… a little mystery is always nice… don’t you think?

Ok… So finally we have enough news to make an update that’s actually relevant.
First of all we want to say thank you for all the support you have shown since the very beginning. Bribes and beatings have given very good results so we’re all happy.

On another note, it’s our honor to announce (again) that we have signed an international distribution agreement with Daedalic Entertainment. Yes, we know you know already, but we’re so thrilled we just rub it in all the time.
Now that the project has become so big, we’ll have to reduce our hours of sleep to just three if we want to finish the game in time, but we are happy to. We are so excited with this opportunity. It is the best thing that could happen to us, well this, and Justin Bieber’s retirement of course.

So even though there’s not an official release date yet, the game will be ready around this year’s third quarter, and we are almost certain it will include a hand-painted action figure of this generation’s great hero: Kim Jong Un.
We know the waiting is the hardest part. Just a little more patience please.

P.S. We have just been informed that giving away free Kim Jong Un figures is not feasible. We will try to include a different gift so, don’t panic.

Randal’s Monday team attended Gamescom 2013, here you can read about the experience.

First of all, the number of visitors was huge, as usual. Large amounts of people were gathered at the entrance since the very first moment. Some even started running when the doors opened like if it was some sort of concert! Overall, more than 340.000 people attended the event. A brand new record, taking in mind that last year there were around 275.000 visitors. We believe that Xbox One and PS4 had a lot to do with that. The awaited new generation of consoles was present during the fair for everybody who wished to try it out. (As long as you don’t mind the big lines)

But don’t you think those were the only stars of the event! There were also some big names that caught people’s attention like Watchdogs, The Witcher 3, Titanfall or Batman Arkham Origins. Later on, we spotted some other nice products like Oculus VR which was also a real succeed. The line there kept growing every minute. Even so, we were patient and got to try this version of the well-known Virtual Reality device, which except some little details, was very interesting.

And right there, among all these “celebrities” was Randal’s Monday. Despite the big sagas displayed during the event, lots of point and click adventure fans came to pay us a visit to try the game and get to know a little bit more about it. We would like to thank you all for coming, we really hope you had a nice time!

Also, there were other interesting facts, like the inclusion of a retro stand which had a large selection of classic consoles available for everybody; Pong consoles, Commodore 64, Atari 2600, Jaguar, Master system, Nes etc. They even had Nintendo’s Virtual Boy! (Which we also tried). Apart from that, there was a huge merchandise area where you could buy tons of amazing geeky stuff, and even a Laser Tag stand!

Another big classic in this kind of fairs is cosplay. Several Gamescom attendants were wearing some really nice costumes from their favorite games. And both quality and variety were very impressive. You could find Mario and Luigi, Link and Zelda, but also Juliet Starling from Lollipop Chainsaw, uniforms from Army of Two, Ezio and Altair from Assassin’s creed etc.

So, in summary, we had a blast there! Not only because of the great games and consoles but also because of the people, the amazing visual display, and the atmosphere! If you like to be the first one to try the new products and don’t mind waiting in the line, this place is for you! So if you have the chance, don’t miss next year’s edition! Randal’s Monday surely won’t!
