Expunged from Space 10 Nov, 2010 / 3 comments

Having already refreshed us from the well of Freelance Police concept art, Steve Purcell now offers us a new scrap from the table of the equally canceled Sam & Max Plunge Through Space. The piece shared is an incredibly cool design of the Desoto converted for space travel. He writes:

Sam & Max's custom space-traveling modified DeSoto from the game/movie concept "Sam & Max Plunge Through Space." One of my favorite aspects of the PC game design for the Desoto controls; every key on the keyboard would have a function, however bizarre. Acrylic 8X10.

PC version? I guess it wasn't going to be Xbox-exclusive after all. Oh, well, no use crying about it now. Not that we'll stop you.

    I love meta-jokes like that, incorporating the keyboard in a really intuitive way. I've hardly ever played a game where that happens, which is a shame, because it seems ripe for the pickin'. The best I can easily think of is Monty Python's Complete Waste of Time. Ahh, 7th Level.

    I might be wrong, but I believe the concept was to be made into a movie first. Then when that was killed, it got turned into a game. Which, of course, also didn't happen.

    Or I might be mixing things up, who knows...
