Ron Gilbert Is Teasing A New Monkey Island Game

According to Ron Gilbert, who you might know for creating iconic adventure games like Maniac Mansion, The Cave, Thimbleweed Park, and of course, the first two Monkey Island Games, his next project is a new Monkey Island game. The only problem is that Gilbert posted his new update on his blog on April Fool’s day, all but suggesting that he’s just pulling our tails, or so to speak. What’s interesting here is that Gilbert expressly opposed April Fool’s day, explaining in his blog last year that he hasn’t celebrated the prankster’s holiday in 17 years....

Should Outriders Be A Live Service Game

This shouldn’t be news to anyone who’s followed Outriders for the better part of the past year. The developers made it clear that Outriders is not a live service game. The third-person shooter’s story isn’t going to benefit from a constant influx of new content every month. For all intents and purposes, Outriders is a finished game until People Can Fly decides to release a DLC or expansion, which it’s not required to do....

The Callisto Protocol Took Inspiration From Spongebob Squarepants

Although Nickelodeon isn’t above the very rare creepy and scary SpongeBob SquarePants episode, you don’t typically associate the squishy yellow rascal with gore. However, Glauco Longhi, the game’s director, told The Sun that he used cartoons for inspiration. Specifically, he used SpongeBob as an example of what the studio used for the animations and enemies in The Callisto Protocol, saying: It’s certainly interesting to hear the perspective of someone using something we commonly associate with children and applying it to something literally banned in other countries....
