Home | Passport To Adventure: The SCUMM Story From three-headed monkeys to rubber chickens with pulleys, the Passport to Adventure documentary will explore how SCUMM revolutionized adventure gaming and spawned some of the greatest point-and-click...

Interesting to see how this one turns out - a documentary film "about the SCUMM engine, all the SCUMM games (including the Humongous titles, but obviously focusing more on LucasArts), and SCUMM's cultural influence/legacy".

Big news (for me)! Signal boost appreciated!

TL;DR: I’ve posted a new interactive voiceover demo at dominicarmato.com, and I’m lookin’ for work.

For the long version, read on!… (1/7)

Be careful of the facts when discussing this story.

A fire crew being called out does not mean there was a fire, and a boiler explosion doesn't always lead to a fire spreading.

Seeing folk talking about a "fire" at Rockstar: that's not confirmed, and the fire crew has left

I'm going to unbox my Broken Sword Reforged Collector's Edition on stream (finally arrived!) and then play more of 1993 London-based point-and-click adventure game C.I.T.Y 2000!

Come join!

Fair play to the Nothing Ear (a) buds. I just stupidly left one of them in my pocket during a wash and a tumble dry and after a charge it's fine 🫠 (thank goodness).

The announcer has now led with the news that another train was coming up behind that would be able to take anyone going to Wolverhampton (not a stop on this journey so why on earth would people want to) rather than the news that this train is also going to go to London (finally).

This might be the worst train announcer I've ever heard. He keeps updating to say he doesn't know anything and then he said actually if people wanted to get a train back up north there was one in ten minutes. Then he announced actually that was a mistake and that one had already left 🀑

I'm not sure many films are set in Warrington

On a train that hasn't been moving for half an hour where the train driver keeps giving announcements saying he'll let us know what's happening when he finds out but that we'll probably know sooner than he does. It's not inspiring confidence πŸ˜„πŸ˜„πŸ˜„

@kermodemovie.bsky.social Hi! I was trying to verify a post I saw about new IMAX tech allowing for longer films (for an article), but I can't seem to find much concrete evidence (emailed IMAX, not heard back). Wonder if you'd have any idea - or know a contact? www.darkhorizons.com/new-imax-tec...:
