@OutofPrintArchive The first time Guybrush Threepwood ever spoke. My second favorite Monkey Island game. I will say my favorite is Monkey Island 2 : Lechuck's Revenge. Check out the first part of my playthrough of Curse of Monkey Island here :

    Quantum Link

    Habitat

    Among the most famous defunct online services, Quantum Link on the C64 was the staging ground for one of the most ambitious online experiments of the 80s.

    Habitat by LucasFilm Games translated their adventure gameplay in a social, real-time world.

    I couldn't get this back then, so one of my besties surprised me with this recently

    Return to Monkey Island will always represent a beacon of joy and love in my life. Anything LucasArts will always be a big part of my heart

    This means so much to me ❤️

    Damned, yet only 2800€ of 5000€.
    So, if you don't back this book, me and @codepitbull will not get one 😭

    The Dig (LucasArts) was released 28 years ago.

    "Three astronauts are mysteriously transported to an alien world where they uncover artifacts of an ancient, yet advanced civilization. They must sift through the ruins to assemble technology to take them home."

    This nice adventure game in space is available on Gog & Steam.

    Am I the only one who had issues with configuring conventional memory in correctly for later games? I remember slow downs on , and with an error message saying „Memory Low swapping data to disk“. How does it come that the SCUMM interpreter was so memory hungry in that specific segment? Does anyone of you guys know?@grumpygamer @aaronsgiles @scummvm @DavidBFox

    'Tis Doodle O'Clock ~☆

    Elaine from Return to Monkey Island is my favorite Elaine from all Monkey Island games ❤️

    There is character growth making this version of herself the most versatile yet, her dynamic with Guybrush feels much more natural as friends and partners too

    Monkey Island Shenanigans ~☆

    One of my favorite puzzles in Return to Monkey Island was the mop quest

    Not only it was hilarious (poor forest critters lol), but also a series of fun achievements like Mop Heist! Which single handedly inspired a personal favorite RtMI doodle ❤️

    Monkey Island Shenanigans ~☆

    Last day of August ʕ•ᴥ•ʔノ☆

    I have 3 important things to celebrate:

    1.- A total of 334 days as of today of non-stop doodles! No hospital shenanigans or chronic pain madness has been able to stop me from doodling

    It's been crazy but I have loved every single month

    Pink is done ʕ•ᴥ•ʔノ☆

    Guybrush in a dress from Monkey Island 2, Max from Sam & Max, and Leslie holding Broom Alien from Zak McKracken - and if you have no idea who they are, this is your sign to play the game, go to Mars and meet them

    LucasArts color wheel shenanigans ~☆

    LucasArts color wheel shenanigans ~☆

    Purple done 💜

    Elaine from Monkey Island, Purple Tentacle from Maniac Mansion, and Annie from Zak McKracken

    I really wanted to do a chainsaw instead of a knife, but there is really no room for all 'em Maniac Mansion shenanigans

    "The excellent control method makes the adventure easy to get into"

    Back in the days when you had to type down things, Maniac Mansion came in with 'em 15 verb list thingie and moved adventure genre into awesomeness

    One of so many reasons to love Maniac Mansion ❤️
