30 years ago today, a purple tentacle tried to take over the world 🌎

Happy anniversary to Day of the Tentacle! 🎂🥳

I'd never laughed so hard at an adventure game back then 😀

Here's what happens when you fail to Zak McKracken's copy protection 🏴‍☠️

It's funny 😁

The music is a variation on the intro! 🎶

Xenon on Atari ST (1988) 🚀

One of the first Atari ST shoot'em-ups to mesmerize me 😀

David Whittaker's music was exhilarating 🤩 🎶

It's always fascinating to see how the screens in the old Sierra On-Line games were drawn.

For example, the cockpit of a ship in Space Quest 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6jrDBbSaHU&list=PL7u9xCop5aLuz-4WgpPkTkcD8hs1W03Ok

Gold Rush turns 35 today! 🇺🇲 ⛏️

Even though I never got very far, I loved this game. It was an invitation to adventure, to discover the American West 😍

Very intrigued by this remake of Dune on an Amiga AGA ✨

The graphic designer has been working on the project since mid-2023. All that remains is to code the game (he has found a programmer)

Happy birthday to Space Quest III ! ✨ 🎂 🎉

The game turns 35 today 🚀 (March 24, 1989)

I loved playing it on Atari ST. The first Space Quest with "high definition" graphics. It was awesome! 🤩

I think Guerilla's developers were inspired by Utah's National Parks, but the scenery in Horizon Zero Dawn also reminds me of the Orgues d'Ille-sur-Têt (in France) 🏜️

It's a beautiful site to visit ❤️

The Chuck Rock title screen! 🎸 🎶 (1991)

Have you ever noticed how the musicians' animation is synchronized with the music?

Take a good look at the bassist/keyboardist, for example, or the dinosaur playing rhythm guitar.
