Ron Gilbert, creator of SCUMM (Monkey Island), said it ”would have made a great SCUMM game.” Moon’s director Duncan Jones says it ‘must happen’.
The SCUMM creation tool is responsible for the likes of Monkey Island, Full Throttle, and The Dig. A mock image of what Moon would appear to look like as an adventure game reached the movie’s creators and even Ron Gilbert himself.
”Moon would have made a great SCUMM game,” twittered Gilbert. But more importantly for the film fan, Moon director Duncan Jones is in love with the idea.
”I want to play that!!! I want to hear Clint Mansell’s score in 8-bit audio!!” he twittered.
”Seriously…that was one of the best things I have seen in ever. That needs to be an iPhone game…iPad too…Seriously thinking that if there was ever to be a direct Moon sequel, it may work best as a point and click adventure.”
