Hive of SCUMM and Villainy

Well, this sure is better than the C-3P0 SCUMM game LucasArts is rumoured to have had in development at some point.

Han Solo Adventures is an interactive fan fiction game (I like to think of it as "fan powered!"), in the tradition of the classic graphic adventure games of the 80's and 90's. This is a project I have embarked upon purely for my own enjoyment, and for the love of two things: classic adventure games and Star Wars! Although the stories will be fairly original, loosely based on available background information on Han and his early exploits, you can expect game play similar to classic LucasArts titles

While the 'Goodyear Blimp' dialogue line seems a little out of place, bear in mind the youtube clip is set up for Star Wars Uncut and isn't part of the playable game. The game itself will not feature speech either.

This could be fun to watch.

Wow. That Han Solo sprite is just an edited FOA Indiana Jones sprite. (I'm not saying that it looks bad, mind you)

This is amazing! I hope they finish this. Then again it is a Fan-Made game so....

I got excited, but then realized it was a fan game and thus won't be finished.

I find your lack of faith disturbing.

Heh, seriously been waiting to see that for about 15 years. Thank you! Looks great, hope the project makes it.

While we're at it, mixnmojo seems to have missed a new FoY video. (Unless I somehow missed it :P).

Woah! I totally missed that trailer somehow. And I even visited the official website recently.

Cool, may write that one up in the next day or so. Hmmm, wonder if there's any progress with FoA2...?

very cool stuff!! :)

too bad its not fully speech, but even without it would be the type of star wars game to my liking :)

This clip is actually my clip for the StarWarsUncut.com project, so the jokey dialogue and star wars soundtrack was strictly there for the clip. The game its self his totally straight faced, and uses old schoold MIDI music and text-only dialogue. Thanks for the post!

This is so freakin' cool. I can't wait for the SW: Uncut project to make its full-on debut.

This is sounding really cool, thanks!

Have edited the story to make it more accurate.

Thanks for clarifying that Stacy, and keep us informed of progress. So few of these things ever get finished. :(

Jaws Was Never My Scene, And I Don't Like Star Wars.
