Could you provide a changelog for the updates in the future? I saw that you updated the game 10 days ago (17 days after initial upload) but I can't seem to find any release notes.
Sorry, but The Adventures of Tango Rio doesn’t seem as fun / visually appealing as this one. I really like the graphics you created in the Monkey Island-inspired style for this. Maybe consider developing a voodoo or African mystical point-and-click adventure in a similar Monkey Island style.
I have to use eye tracking to use the computer, and it doesn't seem to work with it. I think it's something about using relative mouse movement vs absolute mouse position. The eye tracking software I use just sets the mouse position on the screen with no mouse movement. I've tried other eye tracking software with the same problem. Could you add a setting to use absolute mouse position instead of relative? Thanks.
Please add “.” key to skip dialogue. I can do some lines for Spanish version voice if you want. jaume.alcazo@gmail.com In Spanish, Booty Island is “Isla Booty” not “Isla Botín” which is the literal translation.
Thank you for the compliments! If you'd like to support us, you can back our campaign for The Adventures of Tango Rio, our original game. We don't have the license for Monkey Island and cannot raise funds for it.
9/10 this is 100 times better than the last couple of official entries in the Monkey Island series. I sincerely hope Lucasarts sees this and works with you to release another official Monkey Island game that fans actually want. There's room for small improvements but all in all I loved it!
Amazing homage to my favorite point-and-click franchise and a damn good fan game. Loved the aesthetics inspired by Curse for the Monkey Island (which is my personal favorite) and worked pretty well as a tie-in adventure for Guybrush Threepwood.
I wrote a quick review on my blog, but it is in Portuguese (Brazil). Anyway, I just wanted to congratulate you guys for all your efforts and wish you good luck on other projects. I'm looking forward to playing The Adventures of Tango Rio in the future.
Fantastico! Enigmi intelligenti e ricco di citazioni a tutti i capitoli della saga (e non). Il rimando alla grafica di MI3 è ben curato e carico di nostalgia. Devo ammettere di avere apprezzato più questo tributo che l'ultimo capitolo ufficiale della saga. Ottimo lavoro!
Ragazzə, sono un accanito fan di Monkey Island, e voglio ringraziarvi. Avete fatto un lavoro egregio, l'avventura è molto bella, ben costruita e molto, molto divertente. Avete reso omaggio alla saga e avete fatto anche tornare personaggi iconici come Kate Capsize e Ignazio Formaggio. Ho amato così tanto questa avventura, che ho deciso di finanziare il vostro nuovo progetto, perchè siete italianə e perchè ve lo meritate. Grazie, grazie davvero. <3
Hey ! Thanks a lot for sharing your work! Do you think it's possible to use AI to add voices based on the original ones from TCOMI? (Not only in english, but also in other languages). I would pay for having the full game with the original French voices (even if it's more than 20 bucks).
I used the Linux version 1.4. Here are my Suggestions:
Make the keyboard hints always available somewhere (I for Inventory, Space for actions / locations, etc). As I feel the "Controls" screen in the options is a bit "buried".
Linked to previous point: Make sure user clicks and keep his finger on the button. (I was blocked at the very beginning because of that)
Provide a Quest or To-do List screen, the same as the Inventory. so that at any time, people can remember what to do next.
Optional: Make the text speed a parameter. It can be quick sometimes. Also, give hint that texts can be skipped by clicking.
Optional: Release in English by default.
Optional: when running the game via the Linux command line, the logs can be quite talkative. Mute them by default. and have a command line option to explicitly activate the logs. like "$ DBG=1 start"
Optional: Avoid file names and folder names with space, especially in Linux. prefer "-" or "."
Optional: Same as above , for the save location, to avoid path like "~/.local/share/BEAN\ -\ Adventure\ Agency/The\ Booze\ Of\ Monkey\ Island/Savegames/savegame00.dat"
Haven't finished yet but dropping in to say a huge well done and THANK YOU for this! You've done a fantastic job at capturing the spirit and tone of MI and all the references are so much fun to re-live. The artwork is stunning as well, just gosh darn it that infernal SYDNEY™ getting in the way of this being expanded on...
Hi there! Loved this project as soon as I placed an eye on it. Here's my very little contribution with the spreading of this gem, playing it on Android with my own project. Looking so forward for it!
PD: If you wanna some Spanish translators, I would LOVE to help!
I vote for "continue" button. Look at other games, for example Quest for Glory 4. Texts are very, very lazy (everybody can read it even if his english is not so good) but you can click and go to next text immediately.
I wanted to contribute to this project, couldn't find a suitable online media with a community of fans for this project, though. I came here to ask if you need help with translation for Swedish. I've been a (bigger) fan of Monkey Island since I was a kid, and my father did an unofficial translation of one of the first games to Swedish. I would wholeheartedly help, I don't need credits though. Just want everyone to experience a fanproject of one of the best series ever.
Hi! Yes, that's how you launch the game. Also note that the game is not on English language setting by default. If you want to change the language to English, you have to edit the config.ini. How exactly: add this to the file: LANGUAGE = English

Just downloaded the demo and my Mac says: “The Booze Of Monkey Island” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified.
And won't let me proceed any further - it gives me an option of delete or nothing else.

It's Apple.
Right click and select open

I absolutely adore it! And I am a big Monkey Island fan.

Yeah I think they used an AI translation. It sucks :(
Leave a paypal or buymeacoffee link. I feel criminal for playing such a fun game for free.

Alright! Will do.
AMAZING! wish you could to the whole new game like this!
finally a gorgeous graphic style!
Tuffo nel passato bellissimo , un onore portarlo in live su Twitch
Fanart for Fangame, have Fun and Happy Coding
Not played it yet, but I love it already.
Fingers crossed!
Please upload more artwork (logo, icon, game box...) to
itch, steamgriddb or launchbox.
This makes it easier to add the game to libraries. And many old hands would certainly like to add it to their collection in a homemade box.
And a Code Wheel please... 🤣
Edit: sorry, the first post contained HTM code which I could not edit.
Molto carino il trailer, l'ho preso e non vedo l'ora di giocarlo!
I really dont know how to open or install this game?
can´t find any help online...
Just extract the downloaded .zip folder from above into your designated location and open the visplayer.exe . It should start the game automatically.
You also can use the client itch.io/app to install and run most games. Have Fun

Wow, this looks and feels just like the original games, and I'm enjoying myself very much. Will this become something bigger?

Hello together!!! Great Job with this game. I made a blog post here: https://free-games.news/monkey-island/
And a Let's Show Video on YouTube here:
Commi, Like and Sub on YouTube would be very nice.Greetings from Germany,

Where do we report bugs? You misspelled Herman Toothrot.
great job! the vibes are the right ones. love it.
You did a fantastic job! Love the art, animation, and feel of the game!
This looks very nifty, but I tried the Linux version and the sound is extremely scratchy and unbalanced. Any tips for that?
MERAVIGLIOSO! Pieno di dettagli che rimandano alla vecchia saga (apprezzato anche il menù, provate ad aumentare la risoluzione ad esempio)
It looks so cool, I'll write a detail review once I play it for longer.
Suuup! Thanks for doing this game!
For me, the storytelling in point-and-click adventures is something unique, and Monkey Island is one of the best!
Great start. Great game, awesome graphics.
I used the Linux version 1.4. Here are my Suggestions:
Amazing Guys, I wanna help you too for german translations, if you need me just text me. :)
Yeah, me too. I can give you a hand to take a look into feeding the parrot.
Amazing! I wanna help for the French translation, if you need to.

Spanish translation could really have an improvement. It reads like translated with an AI
please add a skip text option, either a click or button press.
