Monkey Island?!

Yes! Finally get to talk about it. Here's some designs (only the stuff thats already out there) we did and whoa, some environments? Crazy.. Monkey Island.


Guybrush Threepwood.. or is it Slythrust Freewood?


Sexy voodoo.


A mysterious lab.. of SCIENCE.

Wow, it's a shack.



Man, LeChuck is fun to draw.. not the final design of him, but neat.

your blog is pretty hard to find in Romania,but i found it.you obviously dont get enough credit on the internet(but this doesnt mean anything).Man,your Runaway-CMI like style(plus your own) is gorgeous and i will never,ever,ever(EVER) understand why?why?oh,why they are doing the game in 3d?when its obvious all MI fans want it in full 2d.I look at your backgrounds and characters there and i think:what a loose,this backgrounds and characters could very easily be in the game.this 2d concepts are PERFECT(perfect i say)suited for the game.I would be very glad to know your opinion about this,although i'm sure what it is.but without disturbing any game developers i would like you to tell me.if not here,then by e-mail.thanks man!

the voodoo shack is so awesome!!!

I agree with habanera there. I think the 3D models are losing a little bit of the life you gave those characters. Amazing work man, you're a legend. Stuff like your Scary Gary concepts on the walls of powell building are teaching and inspiring many students who you don't even know (like me). Thanks for that.

I see now that others are voicing the same opinion already, but your concepts are so fantastic that the 3D style just depresses me :(

Was classical animation ala Curse of Monkey Island not an option?

Sugge-!! Yabai.

I've already expressed how pumped I am that you are working on this project, really epic, and not to speak for Ry-zor, but the manpower and time it takes to develop a game in 2D is far beyond that of a 3D title.

So while I am in agreement that 2D perfectly suits the game, its just not really commercially viable right now, especially since adventure games are not the biggest money makers these days.
