FULL STORY ======================================================================

I am ridiculously excited to announce the upcoming release of a brand new, point and click adventure game : Lundukes Quest

Made in the style of the classic Lucas Arts and Sierra adventure games, Lundukes Quest is playable on Linux, Windows, macOS, Android, Haiku OS, AmigaOS, and anywhere else that has a modern port of ScummVM .

Lundukes Quest features:

Gorgeous 320x200 graphics !

A soundtrack than can technically be classified as a soundtrack !

An almost insane number of nerdy dad jokes !

References to old computers that most people probably have never even heard of!

An in-game PDA running Linux (seriously)!

Think of Lundukes Quest like a combination of Space Quest and Monkey Island except about computers. Also, theres a goat. How to Get Lundukes Quest

Lundukes Quest will be released, as a totally free game for all full subscribers of The Lunduke Journal .

The full game will be released during the month of May (currently targeting the second week of May). All full subscribers to The Lunduke Journal will
