The GOG downloads are out

Received an email this morning - you have to log in to GOG and it gives you the option to download the games you don't already have.

The code is a once only code for all games, so you can't give codes to some games to others, it's all or nothing.

I love how quickly this is all progressing - they have so much to do in the next 14 months yet they are moving along at a surprisingly good pace.

Keep up the good work guys!

I think you can give it to someone else to use, it mentions instructions for if you don't even have a GOG account. So the code doesn't seem to be tied to any account. Useful for if you want to draw someone else into the Tex universe as a potential PayPal donator / future buyer of the next game :)

Hopefully they can start sending some of the physical stuff out in time for Christmas. Say, a t-shirt, a poster and perhaps the TM Boxset just to kick things off? Or a novel?

Does anybody want my code (single game)? I don't need it.

Shame they can't be exchanged for a generic voucher from GOG or even just a discount off a title of the buyer's choosing.

If no-one here needs it maybe someone on GOGs forums will want it (if you have an account on GOG it can also be used as a forum account, I think). Or on BigFinish's General non-backer Tex forums.

Matthew, I'll take that code if you don't want it. Played the games when they first came out but have long since lost the disks. Thanks. my e-mail is: [email protected]

I would like to see the credits for the Rita James games come out soon.

Jen owns it and was temporarily giving away a limited amount of email addresses sometime back as a consolation prize to those on the forum who didn't win anything in the prize drawing. Anyone who wanted one entered a contest for "funniest idea for an email username". :) This was the thread:

(If I remember right Jen also had texmurphy.com during the Kickstarter campaign and did a great job redirecting it to the BFG Tex page then the Kickstarter campaign and finally back to BFG when relevant. :) )

I've owned all the Tex games on GOG for a while, so I just gave my code to the first interested person I could find who was new to the series. Spread the love and all that.

Me too. I'm considering who to give it to.
