IWWHIIWWHITOMIROTPG: The Game!
So based on the "When will 'I wonder what happens... 105' be released?" thread there's been a lot of hype over an "I Wonder What Happens..." for Majus' upcoming video. There's even [url=hhttp://www.telltalegames.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13659]another thread full of awesome people[/url] who are planning a project similar to this one.
I do stress similar due to the fact that unlike what most people would expect from an IWWH...this is not in fact a video project. No, once I realized that people were serious about IWWHIIWWHITOMIROTPG, I decided to take a different approach to it. Something a bit more interactive.
So I quickly commissioned my friend Ben to help me with this "super quick miniproject". Of course both of us being absurd as we are decided to take the thing far more seriously than entirely necessary, and it wasn't long before Ben had produced this mock-up:
NEW: (as far as you know but not really
)
The game has been designed using the Adventure Game Studio engine by Chris Jones. I myself programmed the game (within the AGS engine of course). Ben (a fellow AGSer) has done all the artwork. And we've even gotten a couple of voice actors signed up.
This is a super awesome fan game of a fan video of a licensed game series based on characters created in an original game series from the '90s.
Current project members include:
monkey_05_06 (T, A) - Project lead, scripting, design, dialogues
Ben304 (A) - Graphics, testing, puzzle design
Maxilyah (T) - Voice acting (Morgan), testing, puzzle design, dialogues
Icedhope (T) - Voice acting (LeChuck, ###), testing
puzzlebox (T) - Voice acting (Elaine, narrator)
Secret Fawful (T) - Voice acting (Guybrush), testing
Calin Leafshade (A) - Voice acting (Winslow)
m0ds (A) - Music
hplikelike (T) - Sound Effects
Sylvr (A) - Testing
tbm1986 (T) - Testing
[ Arj0n ] (A) - BETA tester
Silverwolfpet (T, A) - BETA tester
Skarnet (T) - BETA tester
Gadesa (T) - BETA tester
Edward VanHelgen (T) - BETA tester
PolloDiablo (T) - BETA tester
T - TellTale forum member, A - AGS forum member
Unless otherwise noted "testing" indicates testing during alpha development stage.
Credit for the original plotline of this game goes to StLouisRibs (T) who came up with this script, which was the concept from which this game was built. Mad props to StLouisRibs for this.
Oh, also this, from a PM:
It is time.
That's right people! The moment you've been waiting for since practically forever has finally come! IWWHIIWWHITOMIROTPG: The Game! is finally here!
There are still some things that I'd like to be able to do to this game, so there's a good chance that this might still be updated with changes in the future, but you've all been asking for it, so here it is:
Download (full game) (35.43 MB)
Download (no speech) (1.47 MB)
Speech file download (33.96 MB)
Alternate Download README
Mirror on MegaUpload (Thanks [ Arj0n ]!)
I included the game without speech for those either without speakers or who just simply prefer the game that way or have slower connections. The speech file is also available as a standalone download in case you grabbed the wrong file. Just put it in the same folder as the game.
Controls are:
Arrow keys/Num Pad/WASD: Movement
Left click: Interact/talk to/look at (interacts wherever applicable)
Right click: Look at
Ctrl+Q/Ctrl+C/Alt+X: Quit game
There's also been some rumours circulating about some type of "cheat codes" so keep an eye out for those as well.
Enjoy the game folks!

You are a hero! I think it’s brilliant that you want to make IWWHIIWWHITOMIROTPG, and what a chatchy short name!

ffffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
EDIT: Is it done now?
EDIT2: How about now?
EDIT3: Can I haz game now?
Mainly by virtue of being a native Austrian.
@Mataku: Yes.
@Majus+SWP: I told you guys it was gonna be something different than what people would expect.
It's getting closer and closer to being done as we speak voice lines are being recorded.
So I need to check but I think we might have Winslow still open for voice casting, but I'm not sure. We did have one prospect and if he wants it he will get precedence. Other than that we have one line (a single line) available for Elaine. And I'd say the first ten people to say "CAN I HAZ GAME NOW?" get precedence for beta testing (probably about 1-2 days prior to official release; it's a small game). I wouldn't limit it except I figure everyone would just say "I CAN DO!" just to get the game earlier.
So SWP if you want to get an early copy you can go down as a beta tester. Majus you're also welcome to a free golden ticket if you want. Of course you're already going in the credits for the IWWHI videos to begin with. Ahh...I can't wait to show you guys this game!
I want game too.
(although considering I couldn't get the last fan-game I downloaded to work, it might be a bad idea to sign me up...
Hehehe, sure, sign me up!
I see you've got a mighty background artist! Don't forget that IWWH couldn't be made so awesome if we didn't have Martin with his mighty skills, or Suro with his mighty voice. If you credit IWWH, they probably should be in the mighty credits too. :cool:
(Reminds me of that scene in 2012 where we see him on TV proclaiming that everything is okay, with John Cusack telling his ex-wife who is agreeing with him: "That guy is an actor!" immediately followed by the destruction of California...
I think you just pushed the fandom to another level!
This is why MI fans are like no other!
Here is what I think (or hope) will happen in "I wonder what happens in I wonder what happens in Tales of Monkey Island Episode Five; The Rise of The Pirate God"
It starts up with Manny Calavera "Grim-reaping" Guybrush at Flotsam Island where he dies by the hand of Lechuck.
Then the chapter screen comes up, and the game cuts to the Land of The Dead.
In the Land of the dead, dead-Guybrush and Manny teams up with the original soul of Murray and the original soul of Morgan.
Together they must find a way to defeat the zombie pirate LeChuck once and for all!
Wishful thinking you say? I know..
Anyways... Can't wait to try this game!!
If possible could you include something christmasy? I really got in the christmas mood when S&M Ice Station Santa came out...I think it was around christmas anyway.
Best of luck with the project I will definently play the game
Cheers
:-)
Let's all give TTG and ToMI one big hand!!
Wow. Nice job. How long you've been holding on to that picture?
You're pretty quick.
He's real swift, slide of hand trickery! Zing Zang!
I got to try the Halloween contest game first.
Coz Ben said so.
It's not really in the plans for this game. I just want to make a note here that this is only going to be a short game. Only four rooms. One puzzle. But don't let that fool you. There will be plenty to interact with, and hopefully some funny lines. Most of the dialogue has been written by myself (with some help by Maxilyah as well as the rest of the team), so I'm keeping my fingers crossed to not let you down.
If we take into account the size of one of Majus' videos in comparison to the entire episode it represents his videos are quite short as well. I only hope that this little project I lovingly refer to as IWWHI^2TMI5 will bring you all even a fraction of what Majus' work has brought me.
Sure! As soon as the BETA is ready.
Well your thread came about before mine and I didn't want to completely steal your thunder.
Hah, yup. You gotta love that Mark Lovegrove. He actually just sent over the first renditions of some of the music files today, and I'll tell you...he's definitely having way too much fun with this.
I really...REALLY shouldn't...ah screw it.
Wait for it...wait for it...
Anyway you guys have no idea how excited you're making me about this. I just really hope it's as enjoyable for you all as it is for me making it.
Whoa! I don't think we wanted to arouse you in that way...
Anyway, I'm not gonna talk anymore, because I might say something you guys shouldn't know about yet. :P
New link! http://www.telltalegames.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13659
Finally quality monkey island fan games are being made why couldn't we of had this during "The Wait" ??
I'm sure there will be enough time during "The Wait 2" after ToMI's last chapter release.
95 % done sounds pretty done! So you don't need any additional voices (narrator) anymore?
Thought you might like to see this.
Voices are finishing touches. :rolleyes: We're still looking for Winslow and a narrator. And there's still room for more BETA testers.
I can't wait.
