So I’ve been working on my next adventure game. This is the first background image I’m sharing.

I figured I might as well earn the inevitable comparison to Monkey Island 😈

A brick cabin on a beach with several old boxes and barrels around it. In the background is a lighthouse.

Enjoying watching @robotspacer.online play Conquests of Camelot while I edit walking photos and generally chill this evening. I've never actually played this one so it's been great fun.
