In the case of Sherlock Holmes, Electronic Arts had the awesome kindness to share the original DOS sources with us, which tremendeously helped as you can guess.

But usually, yes, we reverse engineer a lot and we are awesome

Twenty years after its original release, we are very proud to announce today the support of MTV's Beavis and Butthead in Virtual Stupidity. Accept the challenge of those anti-heroes of the 90's and help them find their way in an adventure full of puzzles and mini-games. So, get the latest daily buil...

If my memory serves me well, it's a Director game. But I may be confused with the game '9' so I'll check this evening to be sure.

Situation unchanged.

It seems I forgot something at some point... My apologies... :
:/

I changed the thread title to match the version. Thanks for this new version!

Yes, indeed

Yep, but Findus refuses to make it freeware (though I doubt they understood what I was asking for), so for the moment it's still copyrighted and we can't distribute it. But at least Findus answered with a written letter... I was positively surprised. Maybe if they receive a lot of requests they may ...

Thanks for Galador!

Sfinx is already fully playable and a first full pass has been done to translate it in English. Could you also make a nice hi-res icon for it?

Because of our anti-spam rules, the user wasn't able to post it himself. Hi there!!! I write on behalf of Pinodrom Studios, a small company which has just launched a Crowdfunding campaign for a Point and Click game. The game has been inspired by all our most beloved games, those we play using ScummV...

Hi. Could you please mention some details about your environment? (at the very least, which OS you're using)

As you may know if you read our mailing list, this kind of question is asked once in a while even by ScummVM developers, by asking to enlarge the scope of the project or by suggesting a fork. Enlarging the scope has been rejected multiple times, so let's skip this part and focus on your suggestion: ...

The last status I got is: the game is freeware but not available on their site, and the original sources are lost. The engine written by cyx is working great but using some on-the-fly interpreter of the executable assembly, and this technique has been rejected. The standalone engine of cyx is availa...

We also reactivate some scenes/animations/etc removed in the original, when it's possible. There are some nice examples in Ringworld, BlueForce and Return to Ringworld. In R2R, there's still a scene I'd like to add somewhere but don't know where it would be the most appropriate: it's an splendid emp...

I think the original question wasn't only focused on Another World. So: Yes we are only targeting 2D point & click adventure games. There's no technical reason for not adding RPG or Arcade games as our framework is really good enough to handle those, but mentioning it on a mailing list is usuall...
