I had the pleasure of seeing an early version of this, and it's great. I thought I knew what the Black Dahlia was, and every conception I had of this game was completely wrong.

Join us tomorrow where we watch the premier of the Adventure Game Fan Fair Panel - Sierra Days. As you might imagine, the panel has the legendary Sierra devs reminiscing about the heyday of Sierra Online. There will be some things that you have not heard before!

Black Hole Core - my new album on 12" vinyl.
I just released 5 new tracks of danceable EBM music that you may or may not enjoy. Produced and mixed by @jbhstudios.bsky.social, so you know it at least sounds decent on your home stereo.

"In the Big and Tall store in the Galaxy Galleria, you can sometimes find a guy rummaging around near the bargain selection. This is former Sierra On-Line programmer, Bob Andrews. To make him appear, go to the Big and Tall store after clearing out the ATM and changing back into your own clothes, but before buying the PocketPal adapter. This only works in the CD-ROM version of SQ4." - https://wiw.org/~jess/eastereggs.html
Bob Andrews sprite pulling out some underwear.
Solved! ATMachine pointed out that this is a reused Bob Andrews view from a Space Quest 4 easter egg. Bob worked on the CD versions of both SQ4 and Dagger.

"This vat gives off the delicate aroma of alcohol mixed with skunk, possibly because it's full of skunks...and nothing else."
The game also lies to you.

Laura Bow stirring an alcohol vat with skunks and an unidentified person.
Close-up of the little guy floating in the vats
New Dagger of Amon Ra easter egg. In Act 4 (not Act 3), go to the vats and stir Vat 6. There's now a little dude floating around with the skunks.

Rednex screwed me over and threatened me with a copyright strike over my previous video, so I got petty and had my buddy @ronscompvids.bsky.social decompile their stupid game. youtu.be/pVzKhbQ_lnM

In the big Dagger video, I cut out about 2 minutes of the inaccessible conversations between Laura and O'Riley about the murders. Here's the rest of it (SPOILERS, obviously): youtu.be/u26Ry2crmy8

From the desk of @oneshorteye.bsky.social: An almost 4 hour long dissertation about why Laura Bow 2: The Dagger of Amon Ra is such a beautiful clusterfuck of an adventure game? Inject that shit into my veins. youtu.be/nSODB1CRez0

It is done.
This took about two years from research to release, and I doubt I’ll ever make something of this scope ever again. I’m so thankful to everyone who supported me.
Grab a cup of your favorite beverage, curl up in a cozy space, and enjoy.

Wow! @oneshorteye.bsky.social has remixed one of the tracks from An English Haunting for his Spooky Adventure Game Lofi Beats. Both Matías and I are thrilled about it. Give it a listen! 🔊

Happy October! In honor of Spooky Season, I'm releasing a collection of dark lofi tracks, and every one of them is either a cover of an adventure game tune, or contains a sample from an adventure game.

A while ago, I asked people what adventure game puzzles pissed them off the most. I got quite a few good responses and made them into a video: youtu.be/KqgYJ6V_Xjk

@oneshorteye.bsky.social Excellent KQIV video, I'm glad to have gotten to see all the small details I missed in my playthrough. And I'm blessed to have been able to discover those KQ chillout tracks you were using as BGM

The Dagger of Amon Ra initially had copy protection. When you failed it, the characters would make fun of you. The CD version removed this. But (most) of the voice lines were recorded, even though they're not accessible! youtu.be/1Xv2kTn-Wac
