  • Lucasarts and the Design of Successful Adventure Games
    LucasArts and the Design of Successful Adventure Games: The True Secret of Monkey Island by Cameron Warren 5056794 for STS 145 Winter 2003 March 18, 2003 2 The history of computer adventure gaming is a long one, dating back to the first visits of Will Crowther to the Mammoth Caves back in the 1960s and 1970s (Jerz). How then did a wannabe pirate with a preposterous name manage to hijack the original computer game genre, starring in some of the most memorable adventures ever to grace the personal computer? Is it the yearning of game players to participate in swashbuckling adventures? The allure of life as a pirate? A craving to be on the high seas? Strangely enough, the Monkey Island series of games by LucasArts satisfies none of these desires; it manages to keep the attention of gamers through an admirable mix of humorous dialogue and inventive puzzles. The strength of this formula has allowed the Monkey Island series, along with the other varied adventure game offerings from LucasArts, to remain a viable alternative in a computer game marketplace increasingly filled with big- budget first-person shooters and real-time strategy games. Indeed, the LucasArts adventure games are the last stronghold of adventure gaming in America. What has allowed LucasArts to create games that continue to be successful in a genre that has floundered so much in recent years? The solution to this problem is found through examining the history of Monkey Island. LucasArts’ secret to success is the combination of tradition and evolution. With each successive title, Monkey Island has made significant strides in technology, while at the same time staying true to a basic gameplay formula.

  • Desire, Disease, Death, and David Cronenberg: the Operatic Anxieties of the Fly
    Desire, Disease, Death, and David Cronenberg: The Operatic Anxieties of The Fly Yves Saint-Cyr 451 University of Toronto Introduction In 1996, Linda and Michael Hutcheon released their groundbreaking book, Opera: Desire, Disease, Death, a work that analyses operatic representations of tuberculosis, syphilis, cholera, and AIDS. They followed this up in 2000 with Bodily Charm, a discussion of the corporeal in opera; and, in 2004, they published Opera: The Art of Dying, in which they argue that opera has historically provided a metaphorical space for the ritualistic contemplation of mortality, whether the effect is cathartic, medita- tive, spiritual, or therapeutic. This paper is based on a Hutcheonite reading of the Fly saga, which to date is made up of seven distinct incarnations: George Langelaan published the original short story in 1957; Neumann and Clavell’s 1958 film adaptation was followed by two sequels in 1959 and 1965; David Cronenberg re-made the Neumann film in 1986, which gener- ated yet another sequel in 1989; and, most recently in 2008, Howard Shore and David Henry Hwang adapted Cronenberg’s film into an opera. If the Hutcheons are correct that opera engenders a ritualistic contemplation of mortality by sexualising disease, how does this practice influence composers and librettists’ choice of source material? Historically, opera has drawn on the anxieties of its time and, congruently, The Fly: Canadian Review of Comparative Literature / Revue Canadienne de Littérature Comparée CRCL DECEMBER 2011 DÉCEMBRE RCLC 0319–051x/11/38.4/451 © Canadian Comparative Literature Association CRCL DECEMBER 2011 DÉCEMBRE RCLC The Opera draws on distinctly 21st-century fears.

The Strong Unearths Rare Atari Footage through Digital Preservation Efforts While digitizing U-Matic tapes (an analog videocassette format) in The Strong’s Atari Coin-Op Division collection, museum curators and library staff recently discovered a wide range of never-before-seen footage—including video of Atari’s offices and manufacturing lines, its arcade cabinet construction practices, and company-wide staff celebrations. The footage also includes gameplay of many of Atari’s popular titles, as well as video concepts for games never released. The video collection offers an unprecedented look at the inner-workings of Atari at its height at a time that it helped to lay the groundwork for the modern video game industry. The museum’s digitization efforts are made possible, in part, by a grant from the Rochester Regional Library Council. Screenshot from unearthed Atari footage.

  • Developing Peak-Performing Franchisees © 2012
    Dedication We dedicate this book to those selfless franchise professionals with the passion, dedication and desire to help franchisees succeed, regardless of whether franchisees recognize it. We salute you. Joe Mathews and Deb Evans, Franchise Performance Group Developing Peak-Performing Franchisees © 2012 www.FranchisePerformanceGroup.com 4 Developing Peak-Performing Franchisees © 2012 Developing Peak- Performing Franchisees FRANdata, a leading franchise business research firm, estimates there are over 3,500 American franchise brands with more than half a million units, representing more than 250 industry sectors. It reports that more than 150 brands a year choose franchising as their primary distribution model and growth strategy for their products and services. However, most franchisors never achieve significant returns on their investments. Why? How can franchisors avoid stagnation or decline? The Franchise Performance Group believes franchisors stagnate primarily because they don’t understand and therefore fail to master the fundamentals of the franchisor business model. Under this model, a franchisor makes money in two or more ways: 1. Franchise fee revenue 2. Royalties 3. Product sales 4. Ancillary sources, such as product rebates, technology maintenance fees, etc. Of these, franchisors report that royalties are by far their most important revenue source, the lifeblood of their businesses. Who pays the highest royalties? Successful franchisees. Who needs little support and consumes the least amount of time and resources? Successful franchisees. www.FranchisePerformanceGroup.com 5 Developing Peak-Performing Franchisees © 2012 By contrast, underperforming franchisees consume most of the franchisor’s time, talent, and financial resources and pay the least in royalties. Too many underperforming franchisees bury franchisors.

  • PS238 Is a Comic Book by Aaron Williams, Available in Print and Online
    Jumpchain Compatible CYOA - Version 2.6 Produced by Bancho-anon with contributions by SJ-Chan and /tg/ PS238 is a comic book by Aaron Williams, available in print and online Well, it looks like you've wound up at Public School #238, the only public school for meta-prodigies, a.k.a. kids with superpowers. You'll spend ten years learning to master your new abilities, saving or threatening the world, making friends, and receiving an education appropriate for your level of learning (No point in giving a super-genius the standard fifth-grade treatment, right?). This world is largely based on the silver-age of superhero comic books and, despite the fact that several individuals seemingly have the power to end the world or erase significant portions of reality, the world of PS238 is mostly (but not completely) harmless. While bad things do happen, death is seldom among them, even in the midst of full scale alien invasions. For all its apparent dangers, this setting is about elementary school kids. If you don’t want to save the world, it will (probably) be saved without you doing much, if anything. If you want to save the world, then more power to you. While in this world, you are fully protected from any attempt to change history so that you cease to exist and, as long as you remain in the main PS238 timeline, the universe will not spontaneously cease to exist. You now have 1000 CP The Time: a time very much like the start of our own 21st century.

  • Hey Gamers! It's an October Surprise! America's Not
    11/2/2020 October Surprise – Hey Trump, Our October Surprise Is Better Than Yours. (https://www.october- O(Hutrt Sptsa:/t/Wemwewn.OtctobJeori-Snu Trhper Tiesaem.Com/) surprise.com) HEY GAMERS! IT'S AN OCTOBER SURPRISE! In the last couple weeks, the Trump team has tossed out the traditional cockamamie surprises in October, hoping to swing the vote toward them. Hunter Biden’s stolen laptop, Iranian Proud Boy conspiracies, miracle drugs that miraculously don’t exist—all a fever dream from the Fox News Cinematic Universe. It’s all an attempt to distract from their complete lack of tness to govern. Hundreds of thousands dead from COVID-19. White supremacy on the rise. An economy in shambles. A climate on the brink of ruin. A president threatening the peaceful transfer of power. All their fault. We, the members of the game industry, have an October surprise of our own: AMERICA'S NOT PLAYING THAT GAME. As creators of many of the most popular games in the world, we know a bad gambit when we see it. Whatever their moves are, it’s just mediocre strategy. It’s embarrassing, really. And it’s not going to win. Gamers—and there’s a whole lot of us—don’t believe anything that comes from the Trump campaign. We believe in following the science, in cooperating with others, in helping our fellow humans get through this challenging time. So, we’re supporting Joe Biden and Kamala Harris (https://secure.actblue.com/donate/bidenharris2020) and those who aim to serve with them. That’s the only play that leads to victory.
