As a kid I grew up with a love for computers and adventure games. It started with text adventures because you couldn't do graphics yet. But then Sierra came out with their Kings Quest series and I was hooked. I played almost all of them. From Larry to Hero's Quest to Space Quest (the latter being my fav Sierra series) and many many others. And then Lucasfilm made their name. Zak Mc' Kracken, Maniac Mansion, Indy, leading up to my most favorite adventures of all times. The Monkey Island (no 1 fav) series Sam and Max and Day of the Tentacle (no 2 fav). I was amazed by the animations, the music, the quirkyness, puzzles and storylines. It inspired me to learn how to program and make little adventure puzzle games for myself. And to eventually take schooling for it. It's many years later now and I'm not in the business anymore. But I always kept a love for those classics that really shaped me in my childhood. I still got my C64 and my Amiga to this day and a huge collection of adventure games in both my Steam and ScummVM libraries. The genre died out for a while but seems to be making a bit of a revival. Thank you all for the great memories, humor, puzzles and above al humor.

I have played a lot of adventure games in my life but this really is one of the kind. Cartoon graphips, characters and the time travel aspect in the game. Like you can control 3 different persons in 3 different time. 200 years ago, present and in the future + you can interactive with them. I think this interactive aspect just makes so great and that way very special. Just this Looney tunes style is just so cool. It was kind of sad that they did not make a third Maniac Manson game because this was just so super well done. In my list of best adventure games are: The day of the tentacle, Sam and Max, Indian Jones and fate of Atlantis, Monkey island 1 +2 + Leisure suit larry games. These games are funny and amazing puzzles to solve. Really cool 80's and 90's stuff. You really don't see this anymore in games. There are just more action in many games but less contects so no cool story to tell. Thanks you so much from this video and all the best to you. Sierra and Lucasarts fan from Finland

Woah! When the intro music hit at 1:39 it was like I was overwhelmed with a forgotten sense of nostalgia. I had COMPLETELY forgotten that soundtrack and all of a sudden it all came back to me at once :D :D. Incredible work! 57:27 : LOL, nice jab at Sierra there :D. I mean, I enjoyed Sierra games too but Lucasart had the better and more enjoyable games with less arbitrary BS in them ;). 1:17:39 : iMuse! Man, I completely forgot about that. Lucasart had some incredibly immersive musical scores that would evolve with the action of the game. Just walking through a scene and into the next room would often produce these wonderful musical progressions that would just come naturally. I was always inspired by that when I worked on my own projects using the Microsoft DirectMusic tech, that would operate in a similar fashion. Love this Lucasart tech so much! Added SO much to their games! 1:22:52: That is so crazy! So you had the musicians working on Macs. And you had your animators and sprite artists working on DPaint on the Amiga :D. This was truly before the Wintel PC ecosystem had completely taken over and laid waste to every other computer market out there (minus Apple, who barely survived before its resurgence in the early 2000:s).

When a game is so good that I stop watching the making of to avoid spoilers , to be able to re - experience the game itself for the 4th or 5th time affter purposely forgetting the details of the story .
