Jacob Janerka and Ivan Dixon pitch idea for a point-and-click adventure game based on the sitcom
Developers Jacob Janerka and Ivan Dixon have made an elaborate pitch for a point-and-click adventure video game based on the sitcom “Seinfeld.” While they have not secured a license from Jerry Seinfeld or Larry David, the game is a potential way for a younger audience to enjoy the show. In addition, the game could bring in new fans of the show and bring in a larger audience. Currently, Jacob and Ivan are still working out the details of the project and are hoping for a publisher to come on board to fund the project. If the concept is approved, they may use Kickstarter to fund the development of the game.
The pitch aims to capture the spirit of the show, as the game’s concept is inspired by the sitcom. While the show’s final episode was aired over two decades ago, the series remains a popular television show. Unlike many other sitcoms, Seinfeld was considered an ageless classic and its characters are endearingly relatable.
The idea for a Seinfeld point-and-click adventure game came from two indie game developers Jacob Janerka and Ivan Dixon. Although the developer team didn’t acquire the franchise rights for the sitcom, they are hoping to generate some buzz for the game and make it into a commercial success. The developers have a website dedicated to the project.
Ivan Dixon worked on Paradigm adventure game
The Seinfeld game development team has experience with pixel art and adventure games. Janerka created the cult hit Paradigm and Dixon worked on the pixel intros of Rick & Morty and Adventure Time. The team is familiar with the formulas of Seinfeld and black comedy. In addition to their experience with games, they have a strong interest in TV. So, what are they hoping to accomplish with this project?
Ivan Dixon and Jacob Janerka are two of the most notable people behind the games they’ve created. Janerka is the creator of the point-and-click adventure game Paradigm. Dixon, meanwhile, is working on a first-person adventure game called The Dungeon Experience. Dixon also has experience in animation, having directed the music video for Childish Gambino’s “Feel Like Summer.” In addition to his work on Paradigm, Dixon also co-runs an animation studio called Studio Showoff.
While there are a number of other games based on the same comics, there are two notable exceptions to this rule. The first is a collaboration between Vince Twelve and The Ivy, two AGS stars. The game pits a group of tiny, self-aware robots against a malicious professor and plays with theories of artificial intelligence. The game’s unofficial pitch website is intended to be a way for fans to show their support.
Jacob Janerka has never played a point-and-click adventure game before
The Seinfeld Adventure was a fan project that never got far in development, floating somewhere between fan game and semi-serious pitch. Ivan Dixon, a friend of Jacob Janerka’s, encouraged him to pursue the project and it eventually turned into a full-fledged game. Players would control George, Elaine, and Jerry, guiding them through hilarious scenarios from the sitcom. The game started out as a fun project but quickly turned serious once Janerka noticed the positive reaction to the stills that appeared on the internet.
The main goal of the game is to manipulate the land to your advantage and defeat the boss of DUPA Genetics. You will have to complete multiple levels and interact with bizarre characters to reach the ultimate goal – bringing a world back to life. While some players will simply power through, others will take their time and explore the environment, solving puzzles and completing tasks.
