The Monkey Island SCUMM Bar: Oh... my!

ATMachine has come ACROSS an article featuring an early screenshots of The Secret of Monkey Island for the Mac. In it, the verb interface is significantly different than any other version of the game. Don't believe me? View the screenshots and read the article transcript (which has some good ol' PC bashing to boot).

So with that in mind, you might wonder what the PC version would have looked like. Well, ATMachine has kindly dummied up some screenshots to display that. View them here, and marvel at what might have been.

I think there's an error. These pictures don't look any different to normal.

Turn On and Turn Off are gone. Stop being so sarcastic, it should be apparent to anybody. >:

Ah yeah. I see - like the CD version.

"ATMachine has come over an article..." Oooh, matron.

Posted Jan 15, 2004

Pfft, the CD version was COMPLETELY different. Totally. Different font and everything.

Was there anything that "Turn on" and "Turn off" could successfully be used for? I demand answers.

Posted Jan 15, 2004

Nothing, man, nothing.

Posted Jan 15, 2004

I demand proof. Get to work.

So that's what that image of Guybrush stripping was for in Mi2. ;
