Laura Bow and other type games

#1 Post by Jerkincow » Thu Nov 04, 2004 9:41 pm

Is anyone in the process of remaking the Laura Bow series or the Manhunter series?



those would be awesome to see in point and click interface.

(sigh) Well, there's a person/group who claims he's remaking Laura Bow 1, but nobody's really certain what to make of him.

Other than that, nope.

Blackthorne, that Manhunter picture looks absolutely professional. Was that just for fun or what? Because now that you mention it, I think a Lucasarts style interface might work well for that game.

I never played Man hunter. I could never find it.

You could use the sprites for Bobbin Threadbare :)

Yeah, it was just for fun; a musing I had while talking with Klitos the other night; how Manhunter remade with a LucasArts GUI would be cool.
