Monkey Island's Ron Gilbert and David Grossman - Game Maker's Notebook

For this special episode of The Game Maker's Notebook I got to sit down with RETURN TO MONKEY ISLAND's Ron Gilbert and David Grossman, two lifelong heroes of mine. We dug into their history with LucasArts, MONKEY ISLAND and the game's poignant ending.

Thanks for the conversation. Listen more. Talk less. These guys are legends.

This is fantastic! Although-
"as someone who typically chats with fellow composers-" yes any chance a chat with Michael Land is on the cards?

[@awintory]

Alas not currently planned

[@BoonetheAgentsofHAILCreator]

This is amazing. And since Brian Tyler's soundtrack for The Super Mario Bros. Movie came out, I won't listen to it until I see the actual movie next week. I've been wanting to see it for a long time.

I've never played Return to Monkey Island but I have heard a lot about the music. Very excited to listen to this!

I have never played a Monkey Island game but I love the music! Excited to play “Return” next weekend!

[@awintory]

I highly recommend the entire series. Or at least the first 3, plus the new one

[@JackMason21]

Genuinely said " Nice ! " out loud about that gold nugget involving full throttle

[@French_Connection]

Dave Grossman looks a bit like a animated Pixar character 😇

David Grossman - is he a relative to Wes Grossman? 🙂
