FANTASTIC CO. Ofiicial Announcement
"Adventure Quest" America "The Spirit of Adventure Awaits..."
"Fantastic Co." A World wide animation company headed by CEO, Timothy Cross, that specializes in family oriented cartoons and movies is proud to announce the building of it's second theme park, "Adventure Quest" America, to be located in Seattle, WA. "Adventure Quest" America is the latest project under way by "Fantastic Co." and is the follow up to it's first wildly successful endeadvor in the theme park industry, "Fantastic Wonders !" Earlier today, Timothy Cross was quoted, saying the following about his newest project.
"We (Fantastic Co.) sought to do another theme park similar to "Fantastic Wonders" but with more of an edge as well as less emphasis on the actual characters featured in our television and movies. "Adventure Quest" America will be home to much more highly exciting rides; in other words, taller, faster roller coasters and cutting edge attractions. The 'Feel' however, that many have come to expect from out theme parks in the "Fantastic Co." chain will still be there. In fact, much more so in this park since we plan to go "all out" and "over the top". In essence, we're striving to create the worlds greatest theme park, and to do it, we must achieve for the park itself, an unforgettable atmosphere, top-notch attractions, and memories for all those which attend that will last a life-time.
"Fantastic Co." has released the following information regarding the planned areas to be featured in "Adventure Quest"...
"The Beginning": The first area in which guests enter the park, "The Beginning" is home to several unique shops and eateries run by elf-like merchants who possess great talents in music and fortune telling. Visit Miss Gyraa to have your palm read, listen to the entertaining steel drum band, or get sprayed by the god of the elves, Uushaan. Just don't forget to explore all "The Beginning" has to offer!
"The Cursed Regions": "The Cursed Regions" is to resemble a crumbling kingdom which has suffered a terrible curse placed by an evil wizard for many decades. Explore this ruined land in search for many amazing adventures and conquests. An area of the park sure to please your appetite for excitement.
"Viper Skin Valley": Root'n' and toot'n' fun awaits in "Viper Skin Valley". This south western dessert town run by a corrupt sherrif will feature top-notch attractions and exciting stunt shows. Just be sure to watch out for snakes!
"The Rivers Rustic": Join the fun in this run down river town. "The Rivers Rustic" will be home to several spectacular attractions and fantastic adventures.
"A Vision Ahead": Whats planned to be the most stimulating area of the park, "A Vision Ahead" will resemble what Earth may look like in the year 2050 and is sure to be the most cutting-edge theme land in the world. Many surprises and blow-away attractions await. Timothy Cross was even quoted, saying the following," It will be a theme land like no other. I'm very excited about "A Vision Ahead" and what we (Fantastic Co.) have planned for it. It will be something that is yet, unseen or heard of."
"Sky Point": Much like "Sky Point" California located at "Fantastic Wonders", "Adventure Quest's" version promises to be even bigger and better; featuring a 5 star restaurant, observatory and Imax theater. Guest will be drawn by it's appearance and mesmerized by what it has to offer.
"Fantastic Co." was eager to share with the public some of "Adventure Quests" thus far, completed construction of the park, therefor, they have released the following photos of 'AQA'...

you have improved immensely. And thank god you're still alive. That looks absolutely beautiful.. I never thought so many things were possible with scenery. You are the master of the verticle sign. But one question.. how far along is it? -

Freak, you're my personal savior. Jacko, the parks about 25% done, i guess. Thanks for the comments so far everyone -

Its great to see you're back. The screens show that you've still got it.
I love the layout of the station in the first screen. You always seemed to know what scenery items to stack and how better than anybody else, like that castle in FW. I like those tall trees and the overgrown vegetation on the walls of the station, and those tables next to the path are cool too. With the line dividers for the trains in the loading station, if you have any half walls I suggest that you divide up each of those in two because it would match the rows of the vertical coaster trains better. You really execute a unique warm feel in all your work and this is no different. You have so many things going on and yet find some way to tie it all together in a neat, organized way.
The second screen is incredible. Great ideas here with the stacking, like the flowers in the pots and the sculpture in the middle. The park maps with the signs underneath is also a great idea. I can't wait to see what you can do with Toon's quarter tiles. I'm not too sure about those torches though, not their purpose but the fact that they look like paper. I love the pathing and the people on the balcony, and especially the height of that tower.
The link for the third screen was messed up for me, if anybody else is having this problem, here is the correct one:

That third screen is crazy. That structure is great and unique, as well as the concept for the river ride. I like how you foliated the rocks in the water, not too much nor too little, and the entrance spires across the bridge.
Anyway, the planning and advertising is very good. Its authentic, something a real park would come up with. The concepts themselves are ingenious, and I like that it will have a new version of Sky point as to link the two parks in a way. The only thing I'm concerned about is that you will be having more coasters in this park, and I think most will agree with me that if it weren't for your coasters, FW would have been a shoe in spotlight. You did seem to improve with Lords of Thunder I think it was called in Jubilee, but I'd like to see more of the vertical drop coaster. BTW are you having any guest spots? -

The third screen looks pretty dire, and I'd like to ignore it because the first two are just absolutely awesome. I personally really like the palm trees, the objects are a bit messy near the top but apart from that they fit really well. You just have this uncanny ability to make rct look so incredibly real... not in the sense of realistic parks necessarily, but it all just looks so alive. It's amazing, please finish it. -

OMG he's alive!
the screens look nice, just as good as FW, not much better tho, but that park was amazing, and it would be really hard to top. keep it up, and welcome back -

All three screens are amazing. Better than FW but, as Kumba said, not by much.
I think it's almost too gimicy, using that much stacking. And the colors aren't what you used to do. I would like to see some of the good ol' brightness. The color is what really made your old work.
I like what this is and it'll make my personal "list" if it's finished. Please finish this one.

I have always been a fan of your still TC, and this is exception. Beautiful use of scenery, and you sure know how to use those ruin pieces well. The only minor suggestion i have is to use rapid pieces instead of log flume pieces for the water tunnels in the first screenshot.
Keep it up

They do look rather nice. There needs to be more colour. As of right now, all three screens look the same with the light brown and green everywhere. You miss some of the detail because everything blends into everything else.
As for a ride name the Damned, it looks pretty fucking cheerful. It needs to be more ghoulish.
