But what are they working on next? According to a post on their forums earlier today, we might see a brand new Hero's Quest-inspired RPG/adventure game if the team is able to get the appropriate funding:
We do have a design concept for a new Himalaya Studios game. It's not going to be an Al Emmo sequel, but something more along the lines of a fantasy/adventure like King's Quest and Quest for Glory. Finding the necessary funding to get started on the project is proving somewhat difficult, though!
...
That said, a KQ/QFG-style (especially the latter) game would have its own risk...competition from our own projects. If we made a QFG-style game for example, it'd be unavoidably compared to QFG2VGA. Graphic-wise, we'd probably have an edge, since we'd use a higher resolution. Gameplay-wise, we'd have some extremely tough competition since we took our time with QFG2VGA, adding lots of extra stuff and polishing it to our best efforts. Since we had no true deadline, we could "afford to". (in a way) I'm pretty sure that fans would be quick to complain about "wasted potential" if a commercial project wouldn't be able to upstage QFG2...and we made it difficult to upstage.
