Title: Monkey Island: ¡Piratas al Ataque!
Post by: Cyrus on Sat 28/04/2007 11:27:35
Hello, some years ago a topic on this game was posred here: http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=15011.0, but since that time there was no news, and the topic was closed. I would like to lern if it is still under development or abandoned. The author is a guest, so I couldn't send him a PM and had to start this topic. That's why I ask the moderators not to close it.

No updates in almost three years.  Dead website.  I guarantee 100% that this is an abandoned project.

Also, the author does list his email address in that thread.  I hope that you sent him an email and then waited at least a few days before posting this thread.

Of course I have, but the email adress has now become invalid. But we can't be sure it is dead. It may be just frozen or be killed and reborn.

I can't help you, but YOU can help me by telling what the screenshots were like, what kind of graphic it was. You can also tell something about the plot (if you know it).

The graphics were stick-men (but cool looking stickmen). It was in another language. Guybrush had been given a multicoloured coat, and didn't have a beard, but had a moustache that curled upwards on the edges. That is how much I can remember. I think the project died a long time ago

Yeah and Le Chuck was an annoying 13 year old boy.

Stick-men? Coloured or black-and-white, except Guybrush?

they were coloured stickmen. LeChuck was a kid with red eyes.

Well, where did it take place? And what was the plot (if someone knows)?

Does anyone know about the backgrounds? What did they look like?
Title: Re: Monkey Island: ¡Piratas al Ataque!
Post by: Cyrus on Tue 08/05/2007 08:24:55
Well, who knows the meaning of the title?

Cyrus, I think you might have exhausted this community's information regarding that project by now.

You seem pretty obsessed with this canceled game project.
Title is more or less "pirates on attack". The links pretty much tell that project was cancelled and on other they say that they need more team members to fill the positions of members who quit (pretty much every position)...

I'm rather obsessed with a lot of AGS projects, not only this. But in the most of the cases I can send the creator a PM. In this case I can't.

One of the posts is from Ferjuares (the leader of the project), and he is recruiting some team members, but this post is very old (3 years ago). The other one its from one of the members of the team, and he says that the project "quedó en el aire" (literally: was left on the air). I know Ferjuares, because I was on the first team he gathered to make the game (if my memory is right, he did the recruiting in this forums), when I was chosen as the background artist (like 4 years ago), and he didn't have that much of experience with AGS (neither did I).
Apart from this, he hasn't been active in any of the most popular spanish forums for a while, and his personal website (Monkey Argentina) was closed a few years ago. So, who knows? It's pretty sure that the project is dead. Maybe a 'Cease and Desist' happened.

We can't say it for sure. Maybe the project was put aside for some time or frozen until Ferjuares finds a team. Well, who knows about the plot?

Cyrus, I think it might be time to let go.

Let me be a bit harsh:

NOBODY! As it appears, so long as this thread is alive. Don't you get it? you keep buggin people around here for this game, and no one can tell you anything else. I mean the last posted came and told you that he KNEW the creator, and that the creator has vanished off the face of the internet earth. And still you are looking for info.

Please find a way to find your info, without asking again and again the same question, in a thread of 12 posts that are yours, and the rest are people telling you that the game is dead.

By all means, if the game is not dead after all, do bump this thread to let us all know about it, and I hope that the game is not dead as it appears, that you won't sleep otherwise, but I can't seem to find anything else to say really...

Of course no one can be 100% sure of what happened with the game ,and it's your right to believe whatever you want, but right now you are starting to reach the edge of creationists ideals with this game "no matter what you say, or what logic says, I, in my mind, will keep thinking that the game at some point in the (near, but not necessarily) future will reapper. Until then, once a week I will be asking in this thread (<-this last part is not part of the creationists idealism ;D). (<-not the effort to be funny, before you jump and translate this thread to religious debate, once more. not my intention, I don't mean offense to anyone, I honestly do, and I ackonledge the right to everyone to believe what they want ,when they want, and for all I care the humans were made by gaud or whatever, and I don't care really. not in this thread I don't!

Well, I just wanted to keep the thread alive and, if it's possible, to contact Ferjuares.

Are you really going to keep bumping this thread (which, I'm sorry, no one else cares about) all by yourself to keep it on the front page until the time when (and if) you get a hold of the guy and he tells you (in Spanish) that the project has, as everyone else has told you, been canceled for multiple years?
Title: Re: Monkey Island: ¡Piratas al Ataque!

As I already said, I'm not sure about it. But I will stop posting until I find any other materials related to it.
