Brilliant. It reminds me a bit of The Last Door (but with higher resolution).

BTW, I've sent you a Private Message, WRK.

Thanks, Fitz.

I have no idea why it took me so long to Polish the game, because it was a pleasure to work with Nelly and all those funny looking spoonbeaks...

Now I want a real spoonbeak.

Best pitch video since "Double Fine Production's Tim Schafer's Double Fine Adventure". Simply brilliant.

I think I've seen these girls on YT before (enter at your own risk, because you may not be the same person after watching this shockingly disturbing and disgusting vid):

Third part of the article (this time focusing on ads from mid '97 to 2000) is finally finished. You can find it right here:

Of course that other version of Obsidian TV ad is even better (YouTube link).

Cheers Elum. Ahh yeah, that was one of the most boring backgrounds of the game, featuring one of the worst NPC's ever. "Whadda ya want nooowwww?" It all makes sense now as to why I feel like only one of about 5 people in the entire world that played it. Crappy advertising!

I'm not saying that this background from Noctropolis is boring. It's just that I prefer game ads that use different material than just backgrounds/screenshots or box art from a game.

Hi Elum, editor-in-chief of the great (and huge) Polish adventure gaming website I'm absolutely not related to in any way.

Hello Igor... ummm... I mean stranger, I've never heard of.

Unfortunately the only Noctropolis ad I've found (in Computer Gaming World issues) used THIS SCENE from the game. It wasn't very original/interesting in my opinion.

Some time ago I've started working on an article (for Polish website - Adventurescope/Przygodoskop) about adventure game ads. Currently the second part is available on-line, so I think this is a good moment to share it with the English speaking part of the world. Yeah, I know. It's in Polish. But fortunately you don't need to understand the language to click through the ads. So, if you're interested in this kind of material, I hope you'll enjoy it anyway.

Part three should be available in the next couple of weeks... or months.

BTW, this is my first post here, so I should probably say "Hi" or something like that.
