Whoa! Thanks for uploading! I can’t see it as I don’t have Facebook. Any chance you can put it in Google Drive or something?

I want one so bad, but the shipping costs stop me every time!

Nope, I’m a Sierra geek too! Although I’ve never played Shivers, is it any good?

Where’s the Ultimate Insult poster? I want the Ultimate Insult poster!!

Interesting stuff! Enough questions for another Q&A with Ronzo it seems! I’m very curious about the box set in general. For all of you who have it, please post pictures!

Wow! You’ve got it! Looks like a nice collection. The book is the only thing I’d really want though, is it any good?

Sounds like mr. Shafer has an ego problem. He should be grateful to have such an active community 20-30 years after the fact, especially with avid contributors like Laserschwert. That way, he can be proud of the fact that he got the names on the boxes ánd that the fans keep his legacy alive.

I’ve always wanted a Grim Fandango figurine for on my desk and this German Etsy account made some truly beautiful ones of both Manny and Glottis! https://www.etsy.com/nl/listing/1052255285/veel-manny-manuel-calavera-grim-fandango?ref=related-1 They look like the perfect representation of the characters, with some slight artistic touches to make them work as figurines. I sadly don’t have the money for them, but I nevertheless wanted to share them with you!

That does look good! I don't remember the original foreground though. Is this one much different?

It's great to see Laserschwert's getting so much help for this one! Any chance you'll do a restoration of the FM-Towns box-art of the game anytime in the future? I really love the old manga style cover!

I got mine too! They did ask for your permission, didn't they? I know how you hate it when they don't.

I understand. You have a difficult task ahead of you. I’m sure you’ll do a magnificent job again!

Looking good, Schwertsie! Minor nitpick though, isn’t the colour of the title a little bit too purple-ish in the colour correction test? I’m also wondering if the contrast is dialled up a little too high. Don’t see it as a critique though, I don’t know what your sources are, and I’m looking at it from a phone of all things. 😉

What strikes me as odd is that FOA was made under the LucasArts name, not Lucasfilm Games. It could of course be from a development period before the name change.

Love all the options! You’ve made me, and the community, very happy. Thank you!

That banana has never looked so crisp… and tasty!

Pop till you drop! Are you also going to make a version with the logo, but without the border? I think that would be my preferred version.

You can expect a photo in 44 years!

The more sources you post, the more impressed I am of the work you’re doing, Laserschwert. You go through such great lengths to get as many sources as you can. After that, it must be hard work puzzling everything together as neatly as you do, and then colour correcting it and making sure the quality of the final image is consistent. In dutch we call such a thing ‘a monk’s job’, because it’s so detailed and strenuous. I’m glad we have you in our community. I’m curious, how many layers do your Photoshop files have, and do you keep the sources in the PSD’s ‘clean’ so you can swap them out when better images become available?

Yeah, thanks, guys! This is truly a great find and preservation!

The difference is amazing! I was blind but now I see! 😳

Janky might be an overstatement, but they’re nowhere near as tight as the controls of a Mario game for example. (Then again, neither are the controls for Psychonauts 2.)

The controls of the first one feel a bit janky at first, but you get used to it. I recommend playing part one first, it's such a unique game, it'd be a shame if you missed it. If you don't want to, the sequel does let you catch up with the story, but without all the mind bending loveliness of the original.

Laserschwert is obviously payed to deny everything about the incident.

I haven’t finished it yet, but until now I agree. They’re pretty much fun and creative platform levels, but haven’t really blown me away yet. I’m still loving every second though, and the game does really surprise me at points.
