Gaming veteran Ron Gilbert, one of the co-creators of the iconic Monkey Island adventure games, which gained cult status in the first half of the nineties, revealed that the preparation for Return to Monkey Island udl pesn as he wants.

They originally thought about pixel art with the theme, but in the end they rejected it, because the current DL cannot be a retro game. That’s how Gilbert processed it years ago Thimbleweed Parkwith Return to Monkey Island he clearly does not want it to be a return to the old days.

I wanted the artwork in Return to Monkey Island to be provocative, eye-catching, and not what everyone expected, to please the fans. He probably managed to do that, he wouldn’t have been able to get drunk for it. It seems that most people don’t like the new styling at all, and some even point out that the main character’s nose looks like a penis.

Such reactions eventually got to the famous creator, so he decided to turn off the comments on his page and not to communicate with his fans.

I will turn off comments. People are just plain bad and I have to delete comments with personal streams. It’s an asn game, and everyone in the dark is proud of it. Play it or don’t play it, but don’t give it to others. I will not post on my blog. The joy of the message has left me, he wrote.

Actor Dominic Armato, the voice of the main character Guybrush Threepwood, also paused over the aggressiveness of some comments. And no matter how easy you want Monkey Island to be, I dare say that making it a duty rather than a joy for developers is the fastest way to ensure that nothing good will come of it, Armato added.

Return to Monkey Island will be released this year on PC and Switch. It is clear that the nostalgia of the nineties does not happen today. Let’s see if Ron Gilbert hits enough games to make it his way.
