So do I, but I never made that connection. I mean, it's similar, but that's about it. I guess it's just a basic pleasant chord progression.

I've polished a few of the tracks even further, and added another one: Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (fan soundtrack) by Clint Bajakian, Peter McConnell, Michael Z. Land

Three more tracks added: Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (fan soundtrack) by Clint Bajakian, Peter McConnell, Michael Z.

Well, sorry for going off-topic for DOD, there's simply been too much in this movie I disliked for me to call it a good movie. Re-watching KOTCS right after DOD made me appreciate what THAT movie did right even more.

DOD didn't suffer from too little marketing, but from being a terrible film.

I'm already convinced and don't want to get spoiled too much. I hope I can resist! It sucks that the PS5 version is so far out, which means I'll definitely double-dip and get it for PC first at launch. Damn you, LucasfilmGames! Damn you, Bethesda! Damn you, Machine Games!

I finally made the switch to a new virtual instrument library for my brass instruments, especially the lead trumpets, going from the ancient Vienna Fanfare Trumpets to the MUCH better Infinite Brass library. The update in quality in massive - just check out my reworked Opening, with trumpets sounding MILES better than what I had before: Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (fan soundtrack) by Clint Bajakian, Peter McConnell, Michael Z.

Not exactly. While that moment does play a short jingle version of the theme, it's not the long version heard here. But that at least might confirm, that the theme is used in the elevator(s) puzzle chain. And there it is: I really need to take some time playing the game (or watching a playthrough) to properly identify everything.

Oh man, I finally found the part where the theme originated that's used when looking at the Hermocrates. Turns out, in the rip the cue is called Let There Be Light, which plays when Indy dives for Atlantis and manages to turn on the lights. So, is this really the Hermocrates theme? Because the book actually re-uses two themes from other parts of the game. I guess this could simply be called the Atlantis theme, because a variation of it can also be heard during Sophia's presentation, plus the Hermocrates discusses Atlantis as well. This cue puts a lot more weight behind the theme, making it much more important. Very fittingly, since Indy FINALLY sets foot in the lost city.

Would be a good time to port the first game to a few more platforms.

That sounds really good. I did not expect the game to have quasi open-world sections and side quests.

Only now did I learn, that there was an official SWOTL poster, the same size as the SOMI one. Need to find a copy of that!

I really liked the premise, the setting, the visuals, the soundtrack, the cast... but never finished the game. After playing the demo, I fully expected a God of War type game, which I would have LOVED. But if I remember correctly, I never made it past the first stage battle, which is really a damn shame.

I do:

Hot on the heels of the New York track, here's one called "Rescuing Sophia". I'm not really sure where in the game it plays (quite likely Atlantis), as freeing her from the prison cell (followed by Indy and Sophia's passionate kiss) uses a different track. Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (fan soundtrack) by Clint Bajakian, Peter McConnell, Michael Z. Land

Part 2 sounds like a truncated and transposed version of the second half of Sophia's presentation. Edit: Nah, doesn’t fit, as it contains instruments not included in the presentation track. The Quest Studios readme states that Tom recorded his version straight from the game, so that doesn't really help finding the source files either.

Thanks! I still can't find it in the game rip, though. I've tried Scumm Revisited, but for Indy's office it only shows some of the other tracks used there. I guess the theme is actually from another place in the game, and simply re-purposed here? (just like the second part of the track). Or, to make it even more difficult, it might be from another track in the game, but with only certain instrument channels playing.

Meanwhile, I've added two more tracks from the soundtrack. The first one being the rather straightforward theme for the map screen: Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (fan soundtrack) by Clint Bajakian, Peter McConnell, Michael Z. Land The second, and most recent one, though, is the jazzy theme that plays on the New York street and when talking to Biff, the Doorman: Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (fan soundtrack) by Clint Bajakian, Peter McConnell, Michael Z. Land Furthermore, I'm looking for one specific track that's part of the soundtrack rip made back then by Quest Studio's Tom Lewandowski. Maybe I can't see the forest for the trees, but I simply can't find this piece in the raw rip of the MIDIs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8CzKunMqyU I'm not even sure why it's called "The Hermocrates Manuscript", as I don't think the book itself has its own theme when looking at it in the game? Correct me if I'm wrong. Plus, the second half of that track is actually heard in the game when being backstage at the New York theater. Any pointers regarding the first part would be appreciated.

The movie posters can be easily bought, so there's no reason to offer them for download.

I think it's well worth the addition. Its style is the same as the Famicon hintbook artwork (which I still have to start working on):

My thought on this has always been: don't create a game that includes references to popular games, instead create a game that other games will reference in the future.

Anakin's lightsaber is still missing a few tiny pieces, then I can assemble it as well. After that, it's time to think of some wall-mounted display for them.

I just finished 3D-printing these beauties. Good enough for my decaying eyesight

Still, I think it's unfair for me to compare it to Uncharted anyway, because that one is an original IP by Naughty Dog themselves, so of course they are throwing all of their resources and a virtually unlimited budget at it. Indy is "just" a licensed game, so it's got a limited budget, and a client that just wants something that's "good enough" to make financial sense.
