Title: Thimbleweed Park released this week
Post by: lance.ewing on March 26, 2017, 11:24:46 AM
Eagerly awaiting the release of Thimbleweed Park in about four days. Looks like it will be a lot of fun.

With it being the 30th anniversary of Maniac Mansion later this year, I'm hoping that the team working on Meteor Mess 3D might also target this year for release. That game looks pretty cool as well. The web site claims it is coming out this year.

I was thinking the ultimate would be if they could use those 3D models to create a VR version of the Maniac Mansion game. Imagine that, a full VR adventure game. There are a few people working on the concept, but nothing completed yet that I've seen. I was playing Whispering Eons and Alien Apartment recently on my Android phone with a VR headset and was thinking that this is truly the pinnacle of adventure games. Felt a bit dizzy playing them, but it has a lot of promise.

Too bad it's not coming out on PS4 at launch!

I was hoping to be able to grab it on day one but it doesn't look like that will be the case. However, I do plan to buy it and pay full price to support Ron making adventures again. Looking forward to it. I ADORE Mark Ferrari's artwork! That's probably the biggest single reason I'm getting it actually.
