Some folks astutely pointing out that if you haven’t played the game yet, you might want to skip the last twenty minutes of the video until you have, because spoilers.

I only learned about this game ten minutes ago, but Matthew Ritter is somebody I know from Telltale a few years back so I'm passing it along to you. With a warning to watch out for puns!

Obviously this is a promotional thing for store.steampowered.com/app/2… The actual Fairy Queen doesn't like me very much.

This is a great description of my childhood friend Skelly Bamford, but I don't think it's the answer. Also I haven't unwrapped all the letters yet.
ALT Several letters are arranged on the floor to spell out "lank mod."

It's still unbelievable that we were lucky enough to work with @TerribleToybox on the legendary series.

It's me, your pal Rex!
A quick sketch, planning out the new details that would be needed in the Dock location. New additions included the walkway to the Outer Dock, trying out a more modern upgrade on the Scumm Bar, and LeChuck’s ominous ship moored on the horizon.

Greetings - Rex again!
This was a quick initial doodle of how the next generation of buccaneering might look. A version of (H) ended up in the game, playing cards against herself. And (G) ultimately became Marlon Marlin, the fanciest diner to ever enter the Scumm Bar. 🦜

Ah, Melee Island, it's good to see you again. We storyboarded every cutscene, close-up shot, and complex scripted sequence, so we could play the game with placeholder animatics and get a feel for the timings and framing before doing all the final art and tricky scripting. 🎞️
