As posted on the forums, it looks like Ackley and Ahern – aka The Curse of Monkey Island leads – are cooking up a new adventure game. To quote Ackley’s Xwitter post:
A surprise post today! My design partner of "The Curse of Monkey Island" Larry Ahern and I have been developing a new comedy narrative adventure. Our development team is ready to roll, and we'd love to meet with potential publishing partners. Hit me up if you'd like to talk!
Sounds like quite the thrill ride for Curse fans, though it’s probably some ways down the road. Still, imagine a world where it publishes alongside A Vampyre Story 2.
