Excellent game! I haven't played the original one, but it does seem like a kind of game that'd be too frustrating for me right now, so thank you for this remake! The story and the atmosphere are very engaging, and it makes me want to tackle its sequel. I guess I'll play it some day and try to get used to its interface.

I may have to try this out. I've played its sequel "Gateway II: Homeworld." It'd be interesting to learn the origin of the saga.

Great game. Thanks for converting it ! Some puzzles are really hard to solve and you may need a walkthrough.

Honestly looks like one of the best adventure games ever. The point& click UI is great (some fixed verbs and some dynamic verbs depending on the object you are pointing at). The setting is incredibly immersive. The story has a lot of depth. I'm sure the puzzles will be good.

It was fun to participate in this project and to work with all that Heechee Metal. It is a special type of Metal and I hope that not only games will be made out of it but maybe also bikes, mobiles, cars, thooth brushes and probably airplanes and space ships. But before mankind develops such things you should play Gateway!
