If I were to write a book about the history, art, and design of the LucasArts and Humongous adventure games, and their underlying SCUMM engine, based on dozens of interviews (and my usual level of in-depth research), would you buy it?
My SCUMM documentary is going on hiatus and I need to decide whether to do it as a book instead.

@MossRC@social.mossrc.me yep. honestly, would much prefer a novel-length book over a film-length doc myself.

@MossRC@social.mossrc.me i would also be more likely to read it than watch a film, especially if there are diagrams

@MossRC@social.mossrc.me Humongous Games are my childhood, Freddi Fish and Pajama Sam in particular. I would love to read a book about their history!

@MossRC@social.mossrc.me I’d be in. I assume LucasLearning is covered as well?
