QuoteThe suit anakin is wearing, though, does not match the suit he's wearing on Ep III, nor the suit worn by the old guy who originally played Anakin.

Actually it looks exactly like Sebastian Shaw (old Anakin)'s robes. Hoax.

Heh... that sounds very familiar, Gilbot... :-[

What the hell, I'm bored. Here goes another one.

For what it's worth...

All these questions have already been answered - some multiple times - in the "Hints and Tips" section. Please do a search there.

Monky, what about Alfred? Hmm, I guess that is German. It doesn't sound clichéd enough for me though.

As long as it's not one more Adolf, I don't care. ;D

Googlebox: Dieter, now there's a clichéd name... no idea why it is used so often. Welcome to Sprockets, touch my monkey. Willkommen in Royston Vasey, alles klar?

This is Alfred Brugenmier, the evil german spy.

Advice and edits welcome.

Name him Brugenmeier, Brugenmeyer or Brugenmayer. "-mier" is not a surname ending you'll usually find in Germany. And I'm not sure about "Brugen", either, but at least it sounds plausible... ;)

Somehow I find the whole story hard to believe. Sexual education is part of the biology curriculum in German schools.

That old man willow looks really great!
But the river looks too muddy... I'd make it more blue to get that spring feeling.   :)

Maybe my irony detector is still off (just woke up), but that's a dirt track, not a river.

How does a Zen buddhist order a pizza?
"Make me one with everything."


Three Irishmen are walking home from a long night's drinking. Paddy slips and falls into a ditch and breaks his leg. "Quick!" he yells. "Call me an ambulance!"
"Paddy is an ambulance, Paddy is an ambulance..."


What's big, green and triangular?
A big green triangle.


1955:
Albert Einstein dies and goes to heaven. Saint Peter meets him at the pearly gates.
"Who are you?"
"I'm Albert Einstein."
"I'm afraid you'll have to prove that."
Einstein asks for a blackboard and some chalk and starts writing down some insanely complicated equations. Saint Peter spends considerable time checking them through and finally concludes, "OK, you're Einstein. Welcome to heaven."
1973:
Pablo Picasso dies and goes to heaven. Saint Peter meets him at the pearly gates.
"Who are you?"
"I'm Pablo Picasso."
"I'm afraid you'll have to prove that."
Picasso asks for a canvas and some paint and starts painting a crazy yet wonderful abstract picture. Saint Peter looks at the painting with admiration. "OK, you're Picasso. Welcome to heaven."
20xx:
George W. Bush dies and goes to heaven. Saint Peter meets him at the pearly gates.
"Who are you?"
"I'm George Walker Bush Junior."
"I'm afraid you'll have to prove that."
"Why?"
"Everyone does. Even Einstein and Picasso did."
"Who the hell are Einstein and Picasso?"
"Welcome to heaven."

Oh crap.. I just joined a game project making a Grim Fandango clone.

What should I do?

Snap.

Also, it now seems to be available on Home of the Underdogs.

You will find that information in the manual.
And yes, if it's background music, it should loop.

(Also, when you add information to your posting, you can just modify it instead of replying to yourself)

Sam & Max / Day of the Tentacle.

The Dig, as has been said, is not to everyone's taste, and the 3D interface in Grim Fandango might turn you off the game at first. I know it did with me.

SF story is set on Earth after genetic wars where land is devastated and remaining people living in isolated tribes. Main character is member of one such tribe... After people in his willage start dying, he will try to find a cure. As he travels, he will find that Earth was different before...

Well, that already sounds like an interesting combination of SF and history.

Go with the best of both worlds. There aren't enough steampunk adventures out there.

Os àšltimo Quão Queijo ^_^ has a really hard to pronounce nickname.
Also, I don't know what it means and I'm too lazy to dig up an online dictionary.

I take back what I said about the skin colour... the image looks much less vibrant now.
Good job on the glasses though!

The chains on glasses are usually... oh, heck, my vocabulary is leaving me. They're on the front of the sticklike-side-bits-that-disappear-behind-your-ears rather than on the round-front-bits-that-hold-the-lenses.

At first glance, it looked to me like she was crying.

Some other suggestions:
Perhaps making her a bit paler (think Doctor Fred from DOTT) will make her look older.
Change the colour of the dress (dark grey?) or the blackboard (dark green?), or add grey outlines to her dress.

Other than that, extremely sweet work.
