Space Quest III finished!
I still love the game. It's actually very short when you know the solution (I only used a walkthrough twice)
I also think you can finish the game without going to the Monolith Burger.

I found the two Andromedans! And fell into a trap
Let's settle this with fists

After returning to Ortega and blowing up a generator, I was feeling a bit peckish.
So I set off for the Monolith Burger!
Back to business!
I've just escaped from the big cargo ship. My destination: the planet Ortega!
I've got a feeling I'm being followed...
Graphically, the game has aged wonderfully well!
Oops!
So far, I'm managing without walkthrough. I still remember part of what to do or by deduction. On the other hand, it's not always easy to find the right syntax. I almost died on the conveyer

I've been itching to play Space Quest III for a few days now!
So, let's go!
It's been so long since I've played it

@dfx #spaceQuest is definitively my favourite #sierra #adventuregame. SQ3 being the best of them. It's main theme is my ringtone.
And #scummvm the best way to play it, even with #RolandMt32 sound!
@mwichary that reminds me:
Is anyone aware of a way to render the fonts from the weird font files included with ScummVM games?
Toonstruck has a font I wanted to use elsewhere but it seems to be a custom format for that engine.

Playing a bit of Leisure Suit Larry tonight... this here is the Apple IIGS version on ScummVM. The soundtrack's pretty nice!
Holy cow, this was a bit tricky. Earlier tonight, I had found some "Space Quest" disk images from an old Apple IIgs. I wanted to check them out in ScummVM.
First, I had to find a way to extract the data from these A2R images, then rename and collect all of the necessary files. Took me quite a while to get the in-game music playing, but in the end ... everything worked! The game's soundtrack on the IIgs is glorious! It's even better than what's possible on the Amiga!
These are the disk images I'd found:

So while I was up all night hacking and wheezing I finally got around to installing #scummvm and I indulged myself in a few games that I never got around to at the time. Didn't finish any obviously but have to say, the Blade Runner point-and-click from the 90s is not bad at all.
It being Sunday and my throat out of commission, there will be no musical shenanigans at all, so I believe I will make some baguettes, maybe some brioches, and see if I can retire these skin jobs.
Does the fedi have a good #streaming system yet? Cause I'd stream it, and my hacking, I have a HDMI capture card and the necessaries, but I don't wanna go on Twitch.
A dark seed has been planted!
Dark Seed, a 90's point-and-click horror game from the mind of H.R. Giger, is now ready for public testing!
In the game you play the role of Mike Dawson, who just moved to a beautiful solitary mansion to pursue his dream of becoming a writer. You'll soon realise that the place harbors dark secrets, and you'll have just three days to escape a fate worse than death...

I return to #ManiacMansion !
As before, I'm playing via #ScummVM on a Nintendo 3DS, using the enhanced MS-DOS version of the game.
Last night, the game ended in disaster. This time, I'm starting a new game using Dave, Michael, and Wendy.
