The Journeyman Project
Does anyone have it? Is anyone old enough to remember it? Specifically, can anyone extract some WAV files from it? ;)

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I have the Mac version, but it runs too slowly both on my old Mac and on the Basilisk emulator. I've never been able to play it. :(

Well, I actually managed to find what I was looking for... The Journeyman Project theme tune (can't really qualify as a song...). I got it from here.

I loved the first two games... the third though felt like bad fan fiction...

"Oh yeah, Sinclair is really a good guy! Ermm... go to Atlantis now!"

Plus Arthur went from a funny, but good source of historical info, to being annoying.

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

The Journeyman Project dates back to the same time as the original Myst, for those who were wondering. Far as I know, they were both originally for the Mac platform (that's where I played them, at least, on an LC4). We're talking 486 days here. ;)

I remember it, don't have it anymore. It was kind of crap where if you lost the manual you basically couldn't play the game (because said manual had all the codes and stuff that you needed to progress).

I remember this game.  Had it for Windows.  I don't suppose there's any place one might...ahem, acquire the first game?

From the informational text file in the torrent:

Quote
Just ran it, it runs fine on XP if you force 95 compatibility.

From some site:
Installs correctly in Windows XP - although the attempt to install Video for Windows will fail
this doesn't seem to matter. During installation, choose to copy the executable to disk.
To improve performance, run in compatibility mode: find the executable JMAN.EXE in the installation directory,
right click and choose "Properties". On the "Compatibility" tab, choose "Windows 95", 256 colors, and 640x480
pixels (I checked the other comptability boxes also for good luck).


Also here are the security codes you'll need from page 7:
Temporal Security Annex Entry Code: 6894895
Background, Theory, and Procedure Monitor Access Code: 0524133
Historical Reconfiguration Code: 0291384


:D

EDIT: For clarification, HLP doesn't condone pirating software or merchant galleons. :)

Wow, I haven't heard of this game for a while. I remember playing 3 a long time ago and thoroughly enjoying it. Arthur = awesome to no end.
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!
