It was a point of pride in the SCUMM adventures — both by LucasArts and Humongous Entertainment — that there were no dead ends and your character could never die, and this adventure won't be any different. The Passport to Adventure documentary has entered an indefinite hiatus, but the SCUMM story will still be told. I'm writing a book!
Thank you to everyone who signed up, shared this list, and believed in the idea. We hope we can still make a documentary about the SCUMM games one day, but for now we've agreed the best path forward at the moment is for me to take this concept and turn it into a book, published independently, with perhaps the biggest upside being that now I can try to interview everyone who worked on the games — because interviews for a book cost nothing more than time.
To follow my progress on the book, and to help shape my vision for what it will become, please head to scummbook.com — where you can subscribe to monthly update posts via email, RSS, and/or social media.
See you on the other side.
