    Ron's RPG

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    I googled a bit and I found a thread about this on the Thimbleweed Park forums. From 2017!

     

    Interestingly, Ron said he just does this for fun and the chance of it becoming a real game are close to zero.

     

    Well, one new Monkey Island game later, here we are 😄

    Curious, let's pick it apart for scraps of speculation!

     

    I noticed a kind of trail in the top left corner where water or Sonic the Hedgehog could go through.

     

    Also the rock tiles prominently feature bumps and ramps that could be taken straight from Excite Bike.

     

    Just decoration or a hint at a gameplay mechanic?

    This secret ending is only visible to the most hardcore fans, and the games wouldn't work without it.



     

    When I saw it here I felt cheated, but I have to give credit to Remi to stick to his vision and in that context, it just...  makes sense!

    Mojo Book Club | On Stranger Tides | Chapter 17

    Caught up with chapter 3, 4 is next.

     

    I liked this one, it really makes me feel the work, the way it's written, and like @TimeGentleman said, Jack's already between the worlds. I like the casual appearance of voodoo in a fight, teasing more to come.

     

    Makes me think that it does feature much more prominently than in Monkey Island, where Guybrush can perform some magic with instructions, but it ends there. He could have matured into a full "wizard" eventually, if the series had progressed in a different way after 2.

     

    Like, he seems to be a capable end user of voodoo but he never really shows interest in the deeper ends of it, despite its repeatedly proven usefulness to his ends.

     

    Back to Stranger Tides; The second famous historic pirate I recognize appears in chapter 3: Ann Bonny! I think I didn't catch it on my first read, and was focused mostly on Blackbeard. Now I'll pay much closer attention to who else might pop up.

     

    And with that, on to chapter 4 :]

    The game is almost built like a responsive website. If you play it on an ultrawide display you can also get extra widescreen content here and there. The crop can change dynamically depending on the ratio. This must have been done with phones/tablets in mind, where there are no set ratios but modern devices range from about 19:9 to something around 4:3. 

     

    I was somewhat excited for these screenshots, then I realized that's how I experienced the game myself, since I have an ultra wide display 😄

    Apologies if this has been discussed already (I actually haven't played more than a few minutes of the game yet and am staying out of this thread until I do), but:

    RTMI supports 4:3, which reveals portions of the image hidden in 16:9 mode and arguably looks better..?

     

    Everyone, let's replay all the endings in 4:3, maybe the real real Secret is found in these new areas!
