HaydenWCE Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Hey guys. I thought I'd let you all know that I and a bunch of other Monkey Island fans (most of us from the Telltale forums) are currently working on a fan game called 'Carnival of Monkey Island'. Now, this game will take place between 'Revenge...' and 'Curse...', showing the events that could have happened in that brief time period. Coincidentally, the visual/artistic style of the game will sort of be a blend between the looks of those two games. We're planning on releasing this game in three episodes, taking it one episode at a time. We're finalizing the planning and script for Episode I at the moment, we've got some backgrounds and sprites finished, we've got some wonderful music too; so things are going pretty well. But, however, we would like to have more people on the team. What we're mostly looking for are artists, animators and voice actors (yes, we will be having voice). The voice-acting roles we would like filling are: - LeChuck - Skeletal Pirates (with lazy British accents, eg. pronouncing 'thing' as 'fing') - Largo - The Voodoo Lady - Fettuccine Brothers (maybe) - Herman Toothrot (maybe) - Cannibals - Pirate Bar Patron(s) - Clown (with strong New Yorker accent - think the guy off the ShamWow ad, but not quite as fast-talking) - Female Pirate ...more roles to come. So, if you can lend a hand in this project, then post here to say that you're willing, and we'll go from there . Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamza721 Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 do you need anymore programmers? i have programmed many games in the past with AGS and would really like to help with this project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPeel2001 Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Need any help with the script/story? I think I'd like to help there, if I could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samnmax221 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 You never played that masterpiece of a game that was Monkey Island 2.5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydenWCE Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 Alright, at the moment, guys, we're pretty much only looking for good animators, damn good artists, and sufficient voice actors. @ThunderPeel2001, thanks for your willingness, but we do have a small, decent group of writers as it is. We've probably got a sufficient amount of people working on the script/story, and things are coming along quite well as they are in that aspect. However, in the future, if we find that we need some more writers on board (which we may), then I'll be sure to contact you. @Hamza, I'm not quite sure if we need any more programmers - that's something that I'll have to run by the rest of the team. There may be room for another programmer on the team, but you'll need to show us some of your previous works/projects. Thanks . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJ Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Hi, Hayden Happy to provide LeChuck;s voice, if you need it. I've played the role in 'Beneath Monkey Island' and now 'The Power of Monkey Island' on Nightlight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydenWCE Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 Hey Matt, thanks for the sample, I quite liked your take on LeChuck, and you're probably the best we could really hope for out of the MI community, so I'll send you the link to our forum via PM. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skygoblin Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Cool project - I wanna see pictures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexandra IDV Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Cool project - I wanna see pictures! I'm sure all of us want to, but iirc, the dev team said that they wanted to keep the game's contents a secret until its release. Could also be that they haven't produced anything yet, and don't want to admit that they don't have any game art to show at all, so they use the "keeping it secret" excuse. I sure hope that's not the case! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure hope that's not the case! I've been in correspondence with HaydenWCE for some time, and to me it doesn't look like that. However, I can't wait to see the screenshots!

HaydenWCE Posted March 31, 2011 Author Share Posted March 31, 2011 3 backgrounds fully complete, with others in production. Numerous sprites are completely finished, with concept art down for a few more. Inventory items will be drawn in the near future. Music is almost all done. I would love to share some of it with you but, as Alex IDV has speculated - we are keeping this stuff secret until the release, or at least closer to the release.

Cyrus7 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 As far as I know, the project is still looking for more background artists. Besides, you can have a look at the first screenshot: And a couple of other BG's, created by the same artist for a different project: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexandra IDV Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Me four. I thought this game had been cancelled or "put on indefinite hiatus"! Glad to see that it's still going. I have to say that the door to The Irish Mile - the whole scene, actually - looks very small, though. Is Guybrush still a child when he visits that place? Also, is that Meathook in the "Keelhaul - Live Tonight" poster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gos Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 this project seems to be dead...i tried to contact the guys who are working on it...no body replied anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sven_Q45 Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Never heard of that. But it looks GREAT!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexandra IDV Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 this project seems to be dead...i tried to contact the guys who are working on it...no body replied anything. Could be that they're busy with things irl, and haven't read your emails/PMs, or don't want to talk much about the game (it's a secret to everybody!) Or so I'd like to think.

jermy721 Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 its not officially dead..There's still a new post every week or so but progress is getting less and less productive recently. Realistically speaking, the game won't be released anytime in the next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
