Playing #GrimFandango again via the remake on #steamdeck — what’s great about playing a game from ~30 years ago is you don’t remember what happens!

store.steampowered.comGrim Fandango Remastered on SteamOne of the most acclaimed adventure games of all time is now back, better than ever. Grim Fandango Remastered has the all the beautiful art and engaging story fans remember, but has also been remastered to look, sound, and control even better than the award-winning original release.

Also Emet-Selch: *has this mount*
Manny Calavera: "Oh good, I was worried our ride wasn't ostentatious enough."
I found this video in my Twitter archives! 
Manny from Grim Fandango, modeled in #PicoCAD, a tool created by @johanpeitz
I lost the original file, but fortunately I still have this video

) TIL that „calavera can also refer to any artistic representations of skulls or skeletons.“ So Manuel Calavera as a character name in #GrimFandango is perfect.

Into the Halloween spirit with Tim Schafer's 'Grim Fandango' OST by Peter McConnell. 
(30 October 1998)
Even decades after its original release, 'Grim Fandango' remains one of the most original concepts in video games and is still easily one of my all-time favourites. It served as a kind of swan song for the golden age of the point-and-click adventure genre before its popularity declined around 2000, only to see a revival in the early 2010s. I was thrilled when Tim Schafer’s Double Fine remastered 'Grim Fandango' after acquiring the rights following LucasArts’ closure in 2013. It was also fantastic to see Peter McConnell’s fabulous swing jazzy soundtrack, in remastered format, finally get a vinyl release for the game’s 20th anniversary in 2018. I am definitely keeping it next to my heart, or maybe as Manny Calavera would say: "My scythe... I like to keep it next to where my heart used to be". / "Mi guadaña… me gusta tenerla junto a donde solía estar mi corazón".

Fans of #GrimFandango and #LucasArts games would be amused by #Portland 'Coraline's Curious Cats' statues in and around the city.
They look just like cat in #GrimFandango

In fact, even the puzzle in Grim Fandango with Celso waiting for his wife who's already sailed away was apparently derived from Ron Gilbert's early Monkey Island 1 design notes, where the puzzle involves a pirate called "Hanimal" and his brother instead, but is otherwise the same.

So gegen 16:30 Uhr werfe ich die Streamingmaschine an und dann geht’s weiter mit #GrimFandango und #BeyondGoodAndEvil Weiß noch nicht, in welcher Reihenfolge

If Rubacava's racing season starts on Sunday of Week 1 with 12 races each day, then Tuesday, Week 2, Race 6 would be race #114.
Remember Lola's trail of clues? #22, Lengua; #36, Rusty Anchor; then maybe cat race #114. Definitely a puzzle designed to stump (joke) players. #grimfandango #lucasarts #adventuregames

A quick comparison with my 1998 copy.
As you can see, the cover is darker, especially on the back of the box (which is a bit of a shame).
