Space Quest 6: The Spinal Frontier

rdfs:comment

SQ6 was released in 1995 and ran on the last version of the SCI engine, SCI32. This allowed it to use SuperVGA graphics at a 640x480 resolution with 256 colors. It abandoned the tradition of other SCI games by not having the interface in a pull down bar at the top of the screen; instead it resorted to a verb bar window along the bottom of the game, like LucasArts' SCUMM games. The graphics style also changed to be more cartoon-like in appearance than in previous games. It was the last to be officially released in the SQ series. The most notable uses of SVGA in the game occur in the intro with the exterior shot of the DeepShip and the lightspeed shots of the shuttle.

Suddenly you see..." "I want to try that one again, though..." "No, really, I thought you'd bite the big one..." "Geez...she's old-looking..." "Yeow! Guess she wasn't kidding about escape being a futile thing!" "Whoa! I see YOU have a visitor..." "I guess I should pick up Sidney's arm..." "Nice! It looks like a remnant..." "Okay! I heard you." "You can't budge it..." "Wilco. Commander Kielbasa here..." "Leave the dry vomit alone, Roger." "Some objects absorb certain light frequencies..." "Ah...this must be one of those...puzzles again."

LOOK message left out of the game. William Hall reminds us that he is only human. Roger and the narrator argue, part 3 In a reality alternate to ours, Roger doesn't automatically pick up Circuit Sidney's arm...and if you don't make him, he says this . Roger and the narrator argue, part 6 Kielbasa doing his Jebba the Hop imitation, and making a major whoopsie in his message for Roger. Listen carefully. HAND message left out of the game. Some narration that really wasn't needed...for several reasons. A variation on Roger's escape from Sharpei's room. Roger and the narrator argue, part 5 This one describes the rubber duck in Nigel and Singent's apartment. The first line is used in the game...but the second one wasn't...and it sure should've been, darn it! Gary Owens didn't really need to reuse this line...but it's in the resource file, what can I say? Hmm. I wonder why this was scrapped. A cut description of one of the guys in the Cyberspace office. A cute bit of wordplay, can't imagine why this was cut This is what the narrator says if you try to take the rubber duck in Nigel and Singent's apartment. Roger and Beleauxs' discussion, contd. Roger doesn't feel so good A hilarious description of the overhead light at the Mr. Soylent, which was strangely cut from the game. Roger, in a moment of adventure game anxiety . We might've gotten this message if we used the EYES cursor on Sharpei. But the Fates didn't smile upon us this time... Roger and the narrator argue, part 2 Dorff in one of his "surfer dude" moments. Another variation on Roger's escape. Yes, I know it's strange. A variation on Roger and Dr. Beleauxs' discussion on saving Stellar. Roger and the narrator argue, part 1 Another death message voiceover by Roger. Back from the dead? Roger and the narrator argue, part 4 A death message voiceover from Roger?? That doesn't seem quite right .

SQ6 was released in 1995 and ran on the last version of the SCI engine, SCI32. This allowed it to use SuperVGA graphics at a 640x480 resolution with 256 colors. It abandoned the tradition of other SCI games by not having the interface in a pull down bar at the top of the screen; instead it resorted to a verb bar window along the bottom of the game, like LucasArts' SCUMM games. The graphics style also changed to be more cartoon-like in appearance than in previous games. It was the last to be officially released in the SQ series. The most notable uses of SVGA in the game occur in the intro with the exterior shot of the DeepShip and the lightspeed shots of the shuttle. Due to management issues, many hints were omitted from the game, making several puzzles harder to solve than originally intended. To get past the first thug in the apartment, you have to put the Pelvis rug on the floor and dance on it to generate static electricity, which you use to electricute him. You then have to look at the titles of CD-ROMs to get one that gives you information on how to convert the Datacorder into a homing beacon. However, this hint does not tell you how to do it, which was unintended. The information was supposed to be in the magazine, but was put into the manual instead. It also appears that the developers wanted to act as if Space Quest V never happened. Roger is demoted to janitor and is expelled from Star Con Academy. Very few references are made to Space Quest V. Even though Stellar acts as a new love interest for Roger, the game barely maintains continuity that Roger's love interest must remain with Beatrice.
