Checking my Steam 2023 review ʕ•ᴥ•ʔノ☆

Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders, along with Maniac Mansion shenanigans. My LucasArts love is timeless ❤️

POP 80 ELEV 14. And quite a lot of problems.

@scummvm Wut, are you going to support ?

Three things I wish had:

  • better controls for handled: a default action based on context (avoid back/forward of cursor moved with sticks)
  • better hints UX: if you fail to pick one option you have to restart from scratch, dialling the phone etc...
  • optional highlights of objects: it can be very easy to miss them on small screens

Most of this stuff has already been improved in and despite these issues I'm still loving the game!

Heute zocke ich mal das großartige von Ron Gilbert. Es ist zwar schon 6 Jahre alt, aber ich hatte mir dieses bisher aufgehoben. Bisher ist es echt großartig, insbesondere der Humor, der gut mit seinen anderen Spielen wie "Zak McKracken" harmoniert, gefällt mir =) 🕹️ 🖥️ ⌨️

Eigentlich wollte ich im Internet nach Walkable-Behind-Areas in Visionaire Studio googlen (Sorry, bin AGS-Mensch) und bin stattdessen auf eine Spielanalyse zum Adventure-Spiel Thimbleweed Park der Universität Bayreuth gestoßen.

The skeleton and the poster in the coroner’s office in Thimbleweed Park are originally from Maniac Mansion.

I'm teaching my kids the values of the traditional point-and-click adventures, and we're currently about to finish 2. Other classics like and are on the to-to list, but I'm also looking for something new - and that's when I - somewhat late, admittedly, given that it was release some six years ago - discovered that the legendary @grumpygamer made
which looks absolutely bloody amazing. And it's on sale on both Steam and GOG! This is going to be awesome! :-)

That happy feeling, when you just started one of your favorite games and all the fun-a-reno is still ahead of you.

I've spent the last couple of days working on the 🇮🇹 Italian 🇮🇹 translation for my latest game "Not enough time", so I decided to write a blog post about the approach I used to make the game translation-ready (mostly so I won't forget again how it works, next time I make a game):
https://blog.apicici.com/posts/2023/08/game_translations/

The approach I use is (very) heavily inspired by the one used by @grumpygamer in and . Thank you for sharing your wisdom!
