This drove me insane. It gets harder from there, but that one "jump from the tree to the roof and to the other roof" part of Napoleon really was the single most frustrating part of the game.
They should make games like that easier, for those of us who want to "appreciate" them.

Poor hand-eye coordination dur
Yeah, the circus tent was insane. But part of it was psychological. My first time to the top, I was so worried about screwing up that I kept freezing. Once I got to the top, I actually fell all the way back down again - and boy, THAT felt good - but on the way back up, it went by much more quickly. You've gotta relax. Be the ball.

Does anyone have a hint for where I'm meant to go to when I reach the top of the asylum? There are two locked doors and stuff...

Double Fine President, CEO and Creative Freak Tim Schafer tells 1UP this is all a big misunderstanding. "It's crazy, isn't it? We just put that in there as a placeholder for the Psychonauts page we're eventually going to have. But we made it dark and people freaked out," he told us. "While I'm sorry people got their hopes up, I'm happy that people got excited about it. Who knows? Maybe some clever publisher will see how much excitement that dark little banner generated, and send us a few million dollars to make a new Psychonauts game! :)"

Whatever the next thing they have, they really need to work out a promo deal with Hot Topic. I mean, shit, if they had a stand-up of the chick w/ her fingerless gloves, you'd get a shitloada business.

I got that Game Informer! Game looks fun, tho like any newest-gen game I know I will not be playing it for 5+ years.

nice interview with Tim. Also in this series is an interview with the Gods of War guy, for those of you who favor the more bro-centric games, where the dude openly talks about their aim to design games with all flash, and just enough substance.

new Sam & Max game is out on Gametap now. It has some nice new features: Sam can RUN now by doubleclicking (outside only), you can steer the DeSoto with the arrow keys, adjustable hint levels, and it supports any resolution your monitor does.
Well, at least, I don't remember these features.

Can you find Day of the Tentacle? It had MM built in.
Reading those Schafer and Jaffe interviews back to back was a trip.

From a neogaf thread I see there's an adventure game called A Vampyre Story made by some ex-Lucasarts employees I've never heard of.
Some of the other games look fantastic, many clearly inspired by Curse of Monkey Island (perhaps the game with my favorite graphics ever):

The new Sam & Max game is also up on Gametap. I haven't played much of it but it looks like it's a parody of/tribute to a certain well-received 2007 game... :)

I put ScummVM on my DS but I've never played any of these games and am not really sure where to start. Any tips?
― czn, Saturday, 26 January 2008 13:22 (sixteen years ago) link
Day of the Tentacle, all of the Monkey Island series(tho the last one is a bit of a drop off), Fate of Atlantis, Grim Fandango, Full Throttle, Sam & Max, etc
Seriously, all the Lucasarts/Lucasfilm Games adventure output from Monkey Island I up thru Grim Fandango is great. I've never tried it on a DS so i don't know how well it will work out.
― kingfish, Saturday, 26 January 2008 17:40 (sixteen years ago) link
I put Day of the Tentacle and Beneath a Steel Sky on there and they both run really well. The touch-screen is a really good fit for point and click too. Impressive.
Trying to figure out if I can run Grim Fandango on it. I doubt it.
