A comment on Leisure Suit Larry.

I think this genre of games is ripe for a comeback on iOS. Just try to avoid having the keyboard pop up all the time and it should be great.. Although discovering the secret commands and hidden jokes by randomly trying words was half the fun of the old Quest titles.

I've started an ios game in the spirit of SQ2, have done a lot of the code, production artwork for a few scenes, and scribbled artwork for all the rest. I'd love to finish it but my designer is too busy to continue.

Got any scribbles to share? Sounds really interesting.

Too bad the project has stalled... these look great.

Very cool. Definitely has the style down! That green is spot on.
