Ugh. The Ultimate Insult is a waste of paper. I like Disk 22, though. That's nice touch. A Murray skull statue would be best of all. It's all a bit hit and miss, like the people behind these things don't really understand that not one human being alive would complain that there was nothing EMI related in the box.

Meeting Ron was a life highlight, I must say. The guy is clearly super smart, but also seemingly very nice and chilled. A good combination.

Where did that background come from, I wonder? Surely not the shipped resource files? Does Aric Wilmunder have an older version stashed away somewhere?

Exciting!

I love that Ask me about LOOM badge! One day I'll share the details of the disappointment in attention to detail that was iam8bit's Grim Fandango release

Yes, that's why I didn't share a link to the scan. Even though you can't buy this poster, it's crossing over into bootleg territory. I guess should be limited to promotional materials that aren't owned by the artist.

Some kind soul shared a high quality scan of this on Facebook a while back. I don't know if it's something you'd include LS. But if it is, let me know and I'll give you a link.

Obviously this is a Lucas-focussed website, but there ARE other adventure game companies out there (I swear it's true). Maybe this could be a thread to discuss them and their works... One thing that comes to mind at the moment is this Kickstarter by a husband and wife team. I can't quite believe what they've managed to do with two people. I don't know them, but they deserve a bit of a boost I think. They even have a demo and everything. LINK TO KICKSTARTER Take a look:

How did we ever tolerate the originals?!? (J/k) They do looks tons better though!

I can't believe there's STILL easter eggs being found in this game...! I didn't hear anything in your JS port though. Will try on ScummVM. Crazy!

I guess you could talk to the artist about it: www.spacecoyote.com Maybe they'd be amenable to it?

So not the LAPOSTAL that Benny already pointed out?

Yes, it makes no sense to me that the turrets give extra points and I never would have done it if I hadn't have read it 😂

Obligatory attempt at flexing...

Wow. I'm super impressed by this. It plays just like the original, except he wrote it all in vanilla JS...!

I LOVE Peter Chan’s work. I feel the remasters haven’t always been as slavishly devoted to his art in the way I think it’s deserved, sadly.

Yes, I will update it soon enough*. * Mojo time.

Woooo! Thanks!

Good, good, good, good, good, and then suddenly bad. Yours?

Gee, I sure would like to revisit this classic...

And while we're at it, here's probably my all time favourite LucasArts track (outside of the Monkey Island theme itself I guess). It's actually rare because it's the Amiga version... and it's programmed to change every time LeChuck catches you. But the first section, before the instruments start to warp (ie. before LeChuck comes in), is the bit I love. I wish it went on for longer. It's so weird and haunting, and perfect for what's going on in the game... (HOPEFULLY THE VIDEO WILL JUMP TO THE RIGHT SECTION -- Should be Under Dinky Island in the tunnels.)

A new Apple II proof-of-concept adaptation of SOMI has a kicking chiptune version of the opening..

Yep, that fixed it for me! I guess the system wasn't prepared for people to have 100s over the limit or something? (Odd that it gave a 403 error though, rather than a "mailbox full" message.) Good job, BB.
