Yes, you read that right. After a lot of careful thought on the matter, we've decided to stop working on Sam & Max Episode 1, Culture Shock.
This surprise move came a few days ago, when intrepid game designer Brendan Q. Ferguson climbed onto his chair, pointed a finger toward the ceiling, and shouted, "Eureka!" This wouldn't have been so unusual by itself, as Brendan is known for climbing on chairs and shouting things, but this time the exclamation was followed by an emphatic, "By god, I think we're finished!" Cautious optimism erupted into wild applause around the office as the impact of these words sunk in. Champagne flowed, baked goods were laid out, confetti was thrown. Brendan was hoisted up onto the shoulders of Randy Tudor and Dave Grossman and paraded around the office in a lopsided fashion. "Three cheers for Culture Shock!" we shouted, and "Ding dong, the witch is dead!" and other nonsense, as sleep-deprived geniuses are wont to do.[readmore]
In all the commotion, this guy named Pete Tsacle sneaked in and made himself comfortable in Brendan's chair. He's been sitting there ever since, doodling character concepts on scraps of paper. It looks like he plans to stick around, so we put him to work making this Culture Shock promo video just for you.
Once the team stops gorging on brownies and sobers up from all the champagne toasts and picks the confetti out of our eyes, it's back to work on episode 2... and 3, and 4, and so on. But for now, allow us this brief moment of revelry. Episode 1 is done, and in just a few short weeks, you will be playing a brand new Sam & Max game. No joke.
Culture Shock comes out October 17 on GameTap, and November 1 right here on our site. Get ready.
