Floating around online, there are some original scans of the Colonels Bequest design document. Included are some 80's printer sheets that have this very specific style for background art review. I really wanted to recreate that look in scibud, for no other reason than cause. But... yea
Left side: design documents. Right side: the debugging output from scibud. Not too shabby.
I should recreate the paper-yellowing and water stains from years of use.
Also, a look at some early sketches implemented in-engine for testing and prototyping: The entrance to the water fountain. Which originally was labeled "maze entrance", which I actually didn't realize that perhaps the original design had a hedge maze puzzle that was supposed to be here instead of going directly to the fountain.
@32bitkid Come to think of it, that rectangular hedge does look like it's meant to be a maze. I'm glad it didn't happen, though. There are far too many mazes in Sierra games of the period, and they're never fun.
