Scummbuddy

I was just sitting there, watching an Xbox preview show, minding my own business, when that iconic music started to play. I literally said outloud "What the f...?" and was pleasantly surprised! I'm super sad to hear that involvement of any kind with Ron wasn't bothered with. And here I was attempting to start tracking down the musical composer of the previous Monkey Island tie-in on Sea of Theives for a MOJO article, and now we have a whole expansion based on MI.

I want to track down the video of the current CMI speed runner champion. Watching FrozenSpades crush this game repeatedly at about 19 minutes makes me truly wonder how someone could beat his time in not mere seconds faster but by several minutes.

I watched some of his practice runs and there were a few things I learned and a few things I was amazed at. I do like his "swag" move of having Guybrush enter a scene like the cove strafing backwards because of huffing on a balloon. But they've also figured out how to keep Guybrush moving while fiddling within the inventory. I also liked seeing breaking the snake-eating animation so that Guybrush isn't eaten but stuck on screen in an angry talking animation. I wanted to make a news post about this whole thing beforehand, but his start time kept being pushed back because of donation events that added time to earlier streams. 😕

There is the Indiana Jones Fate of Atlantis 4 comic mini series that had to adapt the story away from just STEAL ITEM USE ITEM puzzles. But I don't have them out of storage yet for me to give a better synopsis other than "it exists".

Those three branches of the same movie idea helped ruin the Clue movie in cinemas but thankfully those three endings were stitched cleverly together for the home releases.

Oof. IGN eviscerates the new Indy movie for bad CGI de-aging, boring and hard to follow action scenes, and not having character qualms come to a head and drive the plot but just be checkmarks to their character. https://www.ign.com/articles/indiana-jones-and-the-dial-of-destiny-review

Maybe it's a ghostl lower back butterfly tattoo?? Too much grog one night.

Do the pants hinge so that you can stuff his pants full of silly inventory items or at least Lego gold pieces? You know, before he runs into Largo on that bridge.

I can understand the feelings that some fans have here about the lack of authenticity on some of these releases existing and what they represent vs getting the actual originals. As someone who has an original release of basically every LA game EXCEPT Zak, I am stoked to have this release. The absurd prices online have caused me to hold off on that purchase. (Especially that joker who is selling a copy for 2,500, hah). I did assume this release was coming down the pipe and am thankful that it has finally been announced. I also don't think Zak was released in a slide-out double-box but only a top-flap open box, but I could be incorrect. I do like that this release will have Zak box conform to the rest of these releases. I do rate this licensed release higher than a very well done reproduction copy of the box, as this at least wears it's repro label on its shoulder side and may not creep into forgery-resale, even on accident. Maybe someday I will get my hands on a legitimate box but this is a nice way to let my shelf no longer have that void.

Oooo and I was just about to spend the $2,500 on eBay. Shucks

There definitely were fish swimming by the portholes of the Bloody Lip bar in non-SE editions of MI2.

And hasn't it come out that he really didn't write any of the insults. It was more that he gave them a look-over of what was already written? Oh well. Sorry, I didn't mean to add to the off-topic.

It has been quite a while for me. I would love to do join this and read it once again. Count me in.

As someone that hasn't made time to play the game, are these five fancy different keys five actual inventory items in the game? But there is no way I'm going all-in to get all of these keys. There has been enough say on Limited Run (and some other similar companies) feeding off people's compulsions to no be left out and MUST buy all products and versions.

Aren't there three slightly different versions of the Loom Audio drama? Different actors and lengths?

I'm sorry that I have nothing to add to this topic at this time other than to thank you for your work. I don't have the time to dig into game files right now but I am so happy that you've shared all this work with the community.

I wanted to clarify that while I hate the movie title (but maybe that'll change after seeing it) I am totally on board for another Indy film and have been loving Mangold dispelling rumors to the trolls even though they keep "looking deeper". I hope he doesn't become jaded from all of this. I have been enjoying trying to make the connections to Fate of Atlantis but I'm going to try and enjoy this movie as it is. I would also see another movie with a different actor playing Indy. Too bad we lost River Phoenix too young.

There's also the Steam streaming devices so you can use Big Picture mode on your TV. I use that to play CMI on the TV.

Seems the publisher is "UFO Interactive". They haven't tweeted since March 2021 and their latest news post on their website is from July 25, 2019 but their website footer says Copyright 2021, so not too far behind.

"Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny" Thanks, I hate it. ...unless it's that Atlantian sun dial. Or Dial-A-Pirate!

I don't remember Indy's goddaughter helping him find Atlantis... 🤔

There was a "Legends of LeChuck" fan-game, done perhaps in, what was it, Kilk-n-Play engine? I think you played as Largo? It's been too long. And I can't be talking about fan-work without bringing up off-topic Maniac Mansion Deluxe.

As Doc Brown is a student of all sciences, I'm a student of all BTTF parts. And thank you. When the time is right, I'm all set to show her the Humongous titles I've never played and from there we'll try some Lucas titles and explore worlds.
